I wanted to share a quick little treat that we will be making in my Hands-On Stamping Class today. And I’m learning about my new iphone – I took the picture with my phone and then emailed to myself so I could edit it on my computer. I’m not sure how much faster that is than just using my camera but i wanted to know how to do it anyway.
One thing I did notice is that I need to send a bigger version of the picture – this one is full size and not that big – usually I have a larger picture and I include a reduced version in my blog post and then you can click on it to see the larger photo – this one is as big as it gets from what I sent from my phone. I do think I can choose to send a larger version from my phone – so I’ll try that next time.
Back to the project – I used the new 1″ x 8″ Cellophane Bags in the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Mini catalog. I filled them loosely with Reese’s pieces so that I could close it and then fold it in half. The holder is Chocolate Chip card stock cut with the Two Tags die and the Big Shot. To close it I wrapped a piece of the wide striped Daffodil Delight Ribbon around it pulling the ribbon through the slot in the back of the tag. Then I used a large Rhinestone brad to go around the ribbon and then through the hole in the back of the tag so it would be secure. Trim the ribbon.
For the front I stamped the turkey image from the Gift Givers stamp set in the Holiday Mini catalog – I used black ink, then colored the turkey with my Stampin’ Write markers – Pumpkin Pie, Daffodil Delight, Chocolate Chip and Crumb Cake. Punch that out with the Curly Label punch. Then punch out a Pumpkin Pie Decorative Label punch to layer behind it. Attach to the front over the ribbon with some Stampin’ Dimensionals.
You can easily make this treat for any of the holidays using the other images in the Gift Givers stamp set – just adjust the colors to that holiday. Click Here to look at all the Stampin’ Up! images in the set. You can order online at my website store.
Have a nice day!
These are so cute. You have inspired me to stop procrastinating and make on.
That is dang cute! And it looks so simple to make and mass produce. I think I’ll have to do that for this years place settings. Thanks so much for sharing such a great piece!
Great idea! I like that combination of dies and punches for a little treat holder.
