This is what Stampin’ Up! has to say about The Little Things stamp set:
It’s the little things that matter, such as stamps for 3″ x 3″ cards and tags. Use this stamp set to create them for your giveaways in the autumn and winter months. The way to happiness is to give others—and yourself—a treat once in a while!
For today’s project, I’ve used it on a cute little Halloween treat bag filled with candy corn. Who wouldn’t like to receive this gift? I know I would, and I don’t even like candy corn! But you can also use this stamp set on projects for all sorts of occasions, including Christmas, Valentines, and just because.

Yesterday, I hosted an Open House style Launch Party highlighting products from the new Holiday Catalog. It was a lot of fun! Below are some photos of the displays, and instructions for the Make & Take. (Wouldn’t you know, I completely forgot to take any photos during the actual event. Guess I was having too much fun!)
Here are the Launch Party photos:

Here’s what we made:
I borrowed an extra stamp set, so there are more stamps in this photo than you actually need.
We used two stamp sets for this card. The Painted Harvest stamp set (which will be available in a Bundle with the new Leaf Punch) has some lovely sentiments, but I just adore the font used in the Count My Blessings stamp set.
If you’ve wanted to try a multi-step stamp set but were afraid to, the Painted Harvest stamp set is the perfect one to try first. The flower layers don’t have to be lined up exactly, so it’s good practice for the ones that do.
Here’s what we did:
Stamped with the Painted Harvest stamp set:
first flower layer in Crushed Curry onto the front of the card base
second flower layer in Cajun Craze
flower center in Chocolate Chip
Stamped with the Count My Blessing stamp set:
sentiment in Chocolate Chip
Assembled the card:
used a Bone Folder to burnish the score line in the Note Card
put the card in the envelope
That’s it! Using the pre-cut and pre-scored Note Cards makes this card super easy!

This box may look very involved, but it really isn’t at all. It’s just a few pieces of Wood Textures Designer Series Paper (DSP) cut with the Window Box Thinlits Dies and some glue. Two shades of the photorealistic wood images of the DSP combine to give the look of inlaid wood. Nary a stamp was used. Of course, you could stamp a nice tag to go on the box, if you plan to use it as a gift.
Here’s what I made:
Here’s what I did:
Die cut using the Window Box Thinlits:
Wood Textures Designer Series Paper (DSP) cut with the large box die (2 pieces of a light colored paper, and 2 pieces from a dark colored paper)
all six square sides of the light colored pieces with the smaller square die with hearts
top of one light colored piece with the larger hexagonal die
Cut with my Stampin’ Trimmer:
along edges of all sections dark colored die cut pieces, cutting them down just a tiny bit smaller
Assembled the box:
dark colored pieces glued onto the inside of the light colored pieces, so the dark shows through
flaps of one piece glued to the corresponding spots on the other piece to make the box

Happy Independence Day, America! Today is one of the most popular holidays in the United States. It’s in the summer, when most kids are out of school, and many companies shut down for the week. The beaches, lakes, parks, and backyards are filled with people swimming and barbecuing. There are fireworks displays once it gets dark. I’m celebrating the holiday by sharing a patriotic project with you today. Check out this crate full of red, white, and blue balloons.
These are perfect for party favors or even to use as place cards – just add a tag with the person’s name!
Here’s what I made:
Here’s what I did:
Die cut using the Wood Crate Framelits:
2 of the crate shapes from Wood Textures Designer Series Paper (DSP)
Stamped with the Wood Words stamp set:
stars in Real Red and Pacific Point inks onto the sides of the DSP crate pieces
Stamped with the Balloon Celebration stamp set:
balloons in Real Red, Pacific Point and Smoky Slate inks onto Whisper White card stock (CS)
NOTE: I stamped off before stamping some of the Real Red and Pacific Point balloons
Cut using the Balloon Bouquet Punch:
stamped balloons
same number and sizes of balloons from Whisper White CS
Assembled the project:
bottoms of the two crate pieces glued onto together
flaps glued to the inside of the ends of the crate
balloons arranges and glued together
Whisper White Bakers Twine taped to the back of each stamped balloon, and wrapped around the bottom of the three balloons at the bottom of the cluster
a piece of craft wire taped to the back of the balloon cluster, and bent at a 90 degree angle so I could tape it to the inside bottom of the crate
Whisper White balloons glued to the backs of the stamped balloons, to cover the tape and wire. You could also trace around the whole balloon cluster onto a large piece of CS, cut it out with scissors, and glue it to the back.
twine pieces tied onto the bottom part of the wire, to pull them taut (but not too taut or it will come apart)
wire and twine taped to the inside bottom of the crate
crate filled with whatever you like: candies, popcorn, small gifts, etc. (This was one of the items I made for a display board, so it had to be light enough to be held up with velcro. I stuffed it with two Easter bunny tails I just happened to have on hand.)

Happy July! Even though the first day of summer was 10 days ago, to me July is the epitome of the summer months. I think maybe because some schools don’t get out for the summer until June, and some schools go back in August. July was always the only pure summer month to me growing up. It’s also the month of my birthday, so it holds a special place in my heart.
To celebrate the first day of July, I’m sharing one of the projects I made for the display board at OnStage back in April. I used the Wood Words Bundle (Wood Words Stamp Set and Wood Crate Framelits Dies) and the ever so versatile Wood Textures Designer Series Paper. The crate contains marshmallows, because I needed something lightweight so it could be held up with velcro. But just imagine the goodies you could put in it!
Here’s what I made:
Here’s what I did:
Die cut using the Wood Crate Framelits:
2 crate pieces from Wood Textures Designer Series Paper (DSP)
Stamped with the Wood Words stamp set:
“Fresh Treats” in Real Red ink onto each end piece of the crate
stars in Real Red ink onto the front of the crate
Assembled the crate:
folded all the score lines in the crate pieces
overlapped and glued together the bottoms
glued the flaps inside each end piece
put mini marshmallows in a 3″x6″ Gusseted Bag and closed with a Gold Binder Clip
put bag in crate along with some red crinkled gift bag filler I had left over. You could also cut Real Red CS into skinny strips and crinkle them up with your hands
