Today I’m sharing some little treat holders I made using the Little Treat Box Dies, Christmas Means More stamp set, and Tis the Season Designer Series Paper. They hold 2 miniature KitKat bars perfectly. I tied the tops with the Whisper White 1/2″ Faux Linen Ribbon from the Flowers for Every Season Ribbon Combo Pack It’s one of my favorite ribbons. It’s pretty and you can quickly color it with your Stampin’ Blends markers. I included one of these treat holders in the BINGO Boxes that I sent to the participants of my World Card Making Day BINGO Party. We had a great time, playing BINGO and making cards.

Today I’m sharing a lip balm holder I made with Gilded Autumn Designer Series Paper. I also used the Copper Trim and Acorn Trinkets from the Gilded Autumn Suite Collection. This holder fits any standard size lip balm, like Burt’s Bees, ChapStick, etc. The finished dimensions of the closed holder are 3/4″ x 3/4″ x 2-3/4″. I gave you a sneak peek of it a few days ago, in the post about the coordinating card. You can see that post here.

Welcome to the September 2020 Inking Royalty Blog Hop! During this year’s blog hops, we are enjoying a year of celebrations. This month’s projects are all about Halloween. I used the Ghoulish Goodies stamp set, Essential Tag Punch, and Fancy Label Punch to create tags for this cute and scary little treat bag. The candies inside are Bloody Bones Sweet Tarts Candy. Ooooooo spooky! You can buy them here.
Prepare yourself for a wonderful mix of spooky, scary and sweet. We are excited to share our creations with you today! After you read my post, I hope you’ll hop over to the next person, Ann Murray at Murray Stamps Ink, on the list you can see when you scroll down. Be sure to hop around to ALL the stops, because you definitely want to see all the projects this group has created for you!

Here’s what I made:
S
Here’s what I did:
Stamped with the Ghoulish Goodies stamp set:
- raven in cage in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a scrap of Whisper White Thick CS
- sentiment in Memento Tuxedo Black ink onto a scrap of Real Red CS
Cut using the Essential Tag Punch:
- stamped image and sentiment
Cut using the Label Me Fancy Punch:
- a hole in the top of each tag
- NOTE: I found it a little difficult to line up the punch exactly where I wanted it, so I drew a tiny dot on the tags where I wanted to punch, then positioned each tag so I could see the dot through the hole in the punch. Easy Peasy!
Put it all together:
- put candies in a Mpsaic Gusseted Cellophane Bag and tied the top with a piece of Black Glittered Organdy Ribbon
- black and white twine run through the 2 tags and tied around the top of the bag, tying a small bow in the back
- For the photo, I glued the tags together so you could see both at the same time. You can leave them loose if you prefer.

My husband and I have a Halloween party every year, and this year’s theme was going to be “What’s black and white and red all over?” Unfortunately we had to cancel it this year. But I just realized as I was typing this post that those are the colors of my project today. I’m sure that fact was floating around in the back of my brain somewhere as I made the tags.

Welcome to the September 2020 Candy Hearts Blog Hop! This month’s theme is Halloween. I used the Festive Corners stamp set, Cobwebs 3D Embossing Folder, and Magic in this Night Designer Series Paper to create a spooky fun 3D Pop Up card.
We have two special guests hopping with us today. One is the amazing and talented Mikaela Titheridge of The Crafty Oink Pen, and I can’t wait to see what she has in store for us. Mikaela has been a member of the prestigious Stampin’ Up! Artisan Design Team, and her projects are always spectacular. She’s also cute as a button! Next, Pam Morris of Tap Tap Stamp, is joining us on a regular basis, and I know she’ll have a super fun project for us. She is one of my Stampin’ Up! uplines, and she’s an absolute hoot and a half!
Be sure to hop around to all the stops, be cause you definitely don’t want to miss any of the projects from this group of terrific stampers!
