Simple Elegance Favor Gift Set~Cuttlebug Challenge #33

I decided to enter the Cuttlebug challenge with a wedding set gift box I made in the brides colors, Pink Passion and Lime Green. The entire little box was put thru the Cuttlebug using the Embossing Folder Bloom Dots. I used the wedding couples initials using my Just Rite stamper. I just need to put my gifties in...what a fun and cute little box!

Happy Sunday Everyone!

Just a quick little Sunday morning post...the sun is shining and its going to be in the 50's later this afternoon...a "heat wave" for us "Michiganders"!!

I have 3 workshops this coming weekend, and have been putting together a few little "give aways" to promote the new SU matchbox die that will be available for order April 1st. I hestitated about ordering it, but am so very glad I did. It holds 4 little Hershey nuggets perfectly! My only "hint" in using it, is, I had much better luck with it, using a heavier double sided DS paper, like our new line SU is carring! Other then that, it was a breeze to put together, and so many possibilites with it......great for wedding showers, birthdays, baby showers, the list is endless...I think this is going to be one of my favorites, right up there with the Top Note Die! I'll have more to share later!!

PS: Want to "own" this die.....email me for details! My email can always be found by going to "My Profile".

TGIF~Friday the 13th~Yikes!

TGIF, even though its Friday the 13th! But, I have to admit, since I am now at home full time, one day is the same as another to me, and I love it!

To share witth you today is a basket I made for a "give away" for one of my drawings at my SU workshop I had last Sunday. I love the Basket and Blooms die, they are so fast, and so pretty when done. I used my favorite DS paper Bella Rose. The basket is full of Valentine Chocolate Hearts that are wrapped in foil.

Chocolates Box~Baglet~ 3rd Posting Today!!!!

I made this little what I am calling a "box~baglet, (I am calling it this, as the bottom is like a box, the top like a bag) using a template from a little gift I received some bath salts in....I cut a few pieces off and kind of did my own thing! I covered some Hershey nuggets with DS paper (SU, of course), added some little peppermint kisses to fill it out. This is for a swap I am doing next week! The window at the bottom is using the SU Curly Label Punch, I added acetate behind it. A hint for acetate.....you know those items you get in that annoying plastic, that is so hard to open, that they now sell special slicers to to open them??? Well, I save all the flat pieces (I trim them flat)and they are perfect for small projects like these, plus you can cut them with your Big Shot!!!! Be sure to scroll om down and look at my other two new posts for today!
