She used the Come Sail Away suite, including the Sailing Home stamp set, Smooth Sailing Dies, Come Sail Away Designer Series Paper, and Night of Navy/Sahara Sand Baker’s Twine.

Today I’m sharing with you three adorable treats I received from friends and fellow demonstrators last weekend at Stampin’ Up!’s event called OnStage. There were multiple locations around the world, and we attended the one in Charlotte, NC. I didn’t participate in any swaps this time, but these three ladies brought gifts for everyone on the team. I’m thrilled to get to share these with you today! (A couple of them got a little squished on the way home, so they may not look quite as good here as they did when I got them.)
S
This one was made by Jackie Beers. It contained a small Hershey bar. It’s based on one made by Julie DiMatteo, and I’ve included the link to her instructions below.
S
This adorable little thing holds a peppermint pattie, and was made by the adorable Paper Pixie herself, Julie DiMatteo. I’ve included the link to her instructions below.
S
Wow, this one, made by Sandra Cornejo, is amazing! It has four little sections inside to hold small treats – this one came with Hershey’s Kisses. I haven’t found the instructions to this one yet, but I’ll keep looking.
Here are the instructions to Jackie’s box. She modified it a bit to close by tucking in the flap, instead of using a magnet closure. I believe she said she had to trim a little bit off the flap so it wasn’t quite so long.

Here are instructions to Julie’s little treat holder. She made a lot of these for OnStage!

Judy Newsome made this lovely window card for our Candy Hearts card swap last month. The theme was wedding/anniversary. She used the Piece of Cake stamp set for the sentiment and for inside the window. The background texture comes from the Tufted Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder, and it’s highlighted by some Pearl Basic Jewels. You can see how she made it and what she used below.

Here’s what Judy did:
Cut and scored with her Stampin’ Trimmer:
- Balmy Blue card stock (CS) cut to 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″, then scored in half at 4-1/4″
- Whisper White CS cut to 4-1/8″ x 5-3/8″
- Balmy Blue CS cut to 4″ x 5-1/4″
- Whisper White CS cut to 4″ x 5-1/4″ for the inside of the card base
Die cut using the Layering Ovals Framelits:
- center from Balmy Blue CS layer using a plain oval die
- same plain oval die to cut a scrap of Whisper White CS, then cut around that hole using a scalloped oval die, to create the white frame
Die cut using the Needlepoint Elements Framelits:
Stamped with the Piece of Cake stamp set:
- sentiment in Balmy Blue ink onto a scrap of Whisper White CS
- cake stamp, cake, and cake topper in Balmy Blue ink onto the larger Whisper White CS
- NOTE: lay the Blamy Blue CS layer with the oval cut out over the Whisper White CS layer to determine where the images should be stamped. The Stamparatus makes easy work of getting the images in just the right place.
Embossed using the Tufted embossing folder:
Cut using the Detailed Trio Punch:
- all four corners of the Whisper White CS for the inside of the card base with the floral design and with the rounder
Assembled the window card:

- Whisper White CS layer glued onto the front of the card base
- embossed Balmy Blue CS layer glued onto the Whisper White CS layer, making sure the cake image shows through
- Whisper White frame glued around the oval window in the Balmy Blue CS layer
- tied a piece of ribbon through each end of the die cut sentiment
- NOTE: She used Balmy Blue ribbon from the Organdy Ribbon Combo Pack, which is a Sale-a-bration item that has sold out. If you didn’t get that ribbon, you can use any Whisper White Ribbon, or even leave the ribbon off.
- adhered the sentiment onto the Balmy Blue CS layer using Stampin’ Dimensionals
- applied pearls to the Balmy Blue CS layer in the corners of some of the tufts
- punched Whisper White CS glued onto the inside of the card base
