Goodie Bag using Deseos Pequenitos and the Snow Flurry Bigz Die for the Bigshot from Stampin' Up!

Hi there My Stampin' Friends, I'm trying something new today. I'm posting via e-mail
for the first time. I hope it works! 
 
Today I'm sharing a treat bag I made with a white mini lunch sack and the Northern Flurry
Embossing Folder. I sponged with a dauber to enhance the snowflakes on the bag and then I
used some marina mist cardstock and some silver glimmer paper to cut snowflakes with the
Snow Flurry Bigz Die for the Bigshot.  I added a sentiment from the Deseos Pequenitos stamp
set. Finally, I added some Vanilla Shimmer Smooch Spritz and some of the basic rhinestones to
 jazz it up a bit. This will be going to one of my local Stamping Friends since they know what
snowflakes are all about and have experienced quite a few of them around here the past few winters.

Make & Take from Hispanic Night Event at the Stampin' Up! Convention

Hello My Stamping Friends, I hope you're having a fantastic day like I am.

I've been busy preparing for a Stampin' Up! workshop I have tomorrow but I wanted to share something with you all today so I'm making a quick post today of a Make & Take project from at the Hispanic Night event at the Stampin' Up! Convention in July.

Stampin' Up! Primrose Petals Quinceanera gift box with Glimmer Paper and
Basic Rhinestones finished with Pool Party ruffled ribbon.

Isn't it great? We made a little gift bag using Primrose Petals and Pool Party card stock and the Quinceanera stamp set. We added dimension with one of the punches from the Itty Bitty Shapes punch pack and we jazzed it up with some Silver Glimmer Paper and some Basic Rhinestones.

It was originally created with a sentiment on the front but since I didn't know who I was going to give this to, I just left that off. Once I decide which lucky friend is going to get it, I'll probably grab a sentiment from Teeny Tiny Wishes, or the spanish version Deseos Pequenitos.

So, what do you think? Cute, right?

Have a fabulous day and come back tomorrow because I'll be posting a card from my Christmas Stamp-A-Stacks.

Sweet Treat gift bag using Wonderfall by Stampin' Up!

Good Morning My Stamping Friends,  It is pouring rain here so I spent some time this morning in my stamp room getting creative with the Wonderfall stamp set, the coordiating Autumn Accents Bigz die and Woodgrain embossing folder for the Big Shot and the Ghoulish Googlies Designer Kit all by Stampin' Up! and I came up with this:

I used a glassine bag from the Ghoulish Goodlies Designer Kit and I ran it through my Big Shot with the Woodgrain embossing folder. I used my chocolate chip ink pad and the direct to paper technique to color the wood grain (look at both photos and you can see the diffrerence in the embossed and debossed side. You can choose to decorate the side you like better since you'll emboss all the sides of this bag). I then cut out some very vanilla leaves with the Autumn Accents Bigz die and set them to the side. I grabbed my Wonderfall stamp set and used the Rock-n-Roll technique to color the leaves. Cool, right?! After I attached the leaves to the bag, I added a fork bow with the gumball green 3/8th inch stitched satin ribbon. The Sweet Treats sentiment came from Teeny Tiny Wishes and was cut out and layered with the modern label punch and the word window punch.

This was such an easy and quick project so altered the look and I made a few more with mini brown lunch bags that I bought at my local bulk store. I think my girl's school teachers and office staff are going to love these.
