Sweet Treat Projects with Leanne and Eloise

Hi everyone! Leanne here today. It's never too early to start thinking about holiday gift giving so I have a treat bag idea to share with you.

I've used the new Sweet Treat Bag die to create a festive tote style bag to hold any little gift or some special treats. I've mixed and matched a bunch of different Sunny Studio products to create and decorate the bag. They are all listed and linked below:

Sweet Treat Bag Dies - the bag & tiny tag

Holiday Cheer 6x6 paper pad - peppermint candy patterned paper

Fancy Frames Square Dies - red scalloped frame

Warm & Cozy Dies - hot chocolate mug

Sweet Word Die - die cut "sweet" 

Basic Mini Shapes Dies - holly leaves

Season's Greetings stamp set - to/from stamped on tag

Alpaca Holiday stamp set - Christmas wishes

Peppermint Confetti - used for the holly berries

Be sure to check out the video here for a tutorial on the assembly of the bag. The bag itself is very quick and easy to assemble. The sky's the limit when it comes to decorating. I chose a candy and cocoa theme for mine. I just love that fun peppermint candy pattern that I used for the body of the bag. Sunny Studio patterned papers are the perfect weight for projects like this. The paper is 65lb. weight which creates a sturdy bag.  It can be filled with candy or would be a fun way to give a gift card.

Hi friends, Eloise here and today I’ll be using the Sweet Treat House Add On Set to create my card today.

I started off with making a card base from plain white cardstock. I cut it down to 3 3/8” wide by 9” long. I then scored it at 4 ½” inches and also scored ½” strips along the front of the card to look like wood paneling.

I then die cut out all the elements I would be using. I used a dark grey and black cardstock to cut the scallop roofing out. I used some yellow cardstock for behind the windows and door and then used some wood veneer paper for the door and window frames. I also used some green for the wreath and red for the bow.

I adhered all my pieces together and adhered them onto my card base to resemble a little Christmas decorated farmhouse. I opted not to use a sentiment, but you could easily add one if you like.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I’ll see you all next time.

Wrap Around Box Projects with Vanessa and Anja

Hi everyone! Vanessa here with my take on the Wrap Around Box Dies. I haven't used the City Street Stamps for ages and thought they would fit perfectly for a box full of sweet treats:

I die-cut the box parts from light aqua cardstock and the front panels from pink cardstock. Now I added patterned paper from the Dots & Stripes Pastels Paper pad to the top portions and assembled the box. I die-cut the Sweet Word Die from the same patterned paper and from black cardstock, layered the pieces and adhered the word. Then I stamped the sentiment from Sweet Shoppe Stamps onto a strip of black cardstock, heat-embossed it, notched the ends of the strip and adhered it.

Finally, I stamped the images onto white cardstock, colored them with Copics, die-cut everything with the matching dies and adhered the elements to the box with foam tape.

I love this box die, it's perfect for giving little treats! Thank you for visiting today, enjoy the Sneak Peek Week next week :)

Hi everyone, Anja here and today I don't have a card for you but a fun little treat box made with the Wrap Around Gift Box Dies. I really like that with a bit of measuring and precise cutting, you only need one sheet of 8.5" x 11" cardstock for the box.

I decorated it with the two mini stamp sets Coastal Cuties and Sending Sunshine. I also used the Catch A Wave Dies and some patterned papers from the Summer Splash 6x6 Paper pack to turn it into summer project (although it is actually too hot for chocolate at the moment).

I stamped the sweet girl, the palm tree and the parrot in Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with Copics. To cut out the images, I used the coordinating dies. I also die cut a small gift tag, stamped the sentiment in VersaMark Ink and white heat embossed it.

Thank you so much for stopping by! See you soon with new projects using some fab goodies from the upcoming fall release.

Surprise Party Cards with Eloise and Leanne

Hello crafty friends, Eloise here and today I’ll be using the Surprise Party Paper Pack along with Berry Bliss to create a summer themed Birthday Card.

I started off with cutting four small strips of paper from the paper pack using my paper trimmer. I used the red, purple, dark blue and green star patterns. I then used the Berry Bliss Stamp Set and stamped out the strawberry, blueberry and raspberry in coordinating colours, using some coloured inks. I used my stamp press to help stamp them in the right places. Before I stamp the leaves on top, I cut them out and then stamp the leaves to get the placement just right.

(Altenew Inks Used: Artic, Caribbean Sky, Persian Blue, Sapphire / Frosty Pink, Coral Berry, Ruby Red, Grapevine / Soft Lilac, Lavender Fields, Deep Iris, Midnight Violet / Bamboo, Olive)

While I was die-cutting, I also cut the ‘Sweet’ Word from white cardstock. I then cut down a white card base and ran it through my die cutting machine with the Quilted Hearts Embossing Folder. I added foam tape onto the back of my patterned paper strips and adhered them into place. I also added a brown strip of paper behind the ‘Sweet’ Word and then adhered it to my card base with foam tape. I lastly adhered the stamped fruits into place also.

Lastly, I white heat embossed the ‘You’re So’ sentiment from Fabulous Flamingos onto a black strip of cardstock and adhered it tucked behind the ‘Sweet’ Word.

That finished up my card for today, I hope you enjoyed, and I’ll see you next time.

Hi friends, Leanne here! We are showcasing the Surprise Party paper on the blog today. When I think of a party, my mind immediately goes to the party decorations and sweet treats. That’s what inspired my card design today. I decorated my card with layers of the Surprise Party paper but with a fun twist - fringe!

I started with a white A2 size card base. I picked out 4 different colors of the star pattern from the Surprise Party pack and trimmed them into 1.75” wide strips. I used a special pair of scissors that has multiple blades for cutting the fringe. I layered the fringe strips onto the card front. I left just a little of the white card front showing at the top and bottom.  

Next I wanted to make a tag to add a sentiment and cupcake images onto and then tie to the top of the card. I cut out a tag with a die from the Build-a-Tag #1 set. I stamped a sentiment from Sweet Shoppe directly onto the top half of the tag. I stamped and Copic colored the cupcake, strawberries, and cherry also from Sweet Shoppe. 

After die cutting with the coordinating Sweet Shoppe dies, I adhered the images with dimensional foam squares to complete the tag. Once I had the tag tied to the top of the card front, I secured it in place with adhesive foam squares on the back. Lastly I added just a few iridescent lavender gems, because every party needs a little sparkle.

Fabulous Flamingos Cards with Eloise and Leanne

Hi everyone, Eloise here and today I have a card to share with you all using Fabulous Flamingos Stamp Set. I created a cluster of leaves at the bottom for my flamingos to sit on and a watercolour stripe background.

To start off I stamped my images onto some white cardstock using black ink. I then coloured them in with Copic Markers and cut them out.

(Copic Markers Used: RV10, RV13, RV25, RV19 / R22, R24, R27, R29 / YG01, YG03, YG07, YG09 / YG61, YG63, YG67, G28 / YG03, YG23, YG13, YG17 / YR00, YR02, YR12, YR18 / BG10, BG11, BG23, BG49 / Y00, Y11, Y17, Y19)

Next, I took a piece of watercolour cardstock and some Winsor and Newton watercolours and painted blue strips horizontally across the piece. I flicked on some clean water and dried it off with a heat tool.

I then added adhesive to the backs of all my images and adhered the leaves at the bottom into place. I then layered over the flowers and adhered my flamingos over the top. For my sentiment I white heat embossed the ‘You’re So Flamazing’ onto a think black strip. I tied a hemp cord bow around one side and adhered it into place.

That finished up my card for today. Thanks so much for stopping by today and I’ll see you next week.

Hi there! Leanne here to share a brightly colored tropical inspired card showcasing the fun images from Fabulous Flamingos. My card is A2 size and features a custom two tone water colored background. To create this background I used two Distress Oxide colors - Wild Honey and Picked Raspberry. 

I used a messy water color technique to cover the entire card front. Wild Honey on the top two thirds and Picked Raspberry on the bottom. I tried to make it splotchy to add interest. Next I layered the Frilly Frames Stripes over top. I Copic colored a flamingo along with several leaves and flowers from the Fabulous Flamingos stamp set. 

I adhered the images in a clustered arrangement towards the right side of the card using low profile dimensional foam squares. For the greeting, I wanted to combine a stamped and die cut sentiment that could be incorporated into this focal point cluster.  

I stamped and heat embossed in white the “you’re so” on black card stock. I trimmed it into a skinny strip with a fish tail end and then tucked under the flamingo. Next I used the Sweet Word die. I created a layered look by cutting the “sweet” twice - one from white glitter card stock and one from black then adhering slightly offset. To finish off this card I added a few clear sequins plus some extra tiny flowers around the main focal point cluster.
