Happy Monday! Today I'm sharing one of the first cards I've made using new products in the Holiday Mini Catalog. This features the Pick of the Patch bundle, which is a stamp/punch bundle. The punch cuts out these two pumpkins and stems from the set. The pattern paper is from the All About Autumn pack, which is 6x6" pack of paper. I like these smaller sheets for cards because the patterns tend to be smaller for cards. One nice thing about … [Read more...] about Pick of the Patch

A Box In A Bag
Last week I shared our adorable Christmas Scottie with our Peekaboo Treat bags. This week, I'm sharing him with a treat bag that you can make in almost any size to suit your needs. My bag below is approximately 3" x 3" tall and 1" across on the bottom. So, what is a box in a bag? This is a gift bag that you make with a box bottom. You can see the bottom below. It has squared off sides just like a box. But the top and sides are rounded like … [Read more...] about A Box In A Bag
Christmas Scottie
Happy Friday! What could be better than a Friday? A Friday with a cute pup! This little dog is the sweetest little guy. He's decked out for the holidays with a fabulous red bow. The Christmas Scottie has three different pups posing in different positions. The coordinating Scottie punch punches out this standing pup. This is one of the Peekaboo Treat Bags. These bags are food safe and the package comes with both white and Kraft colored bags. … [Read more...] about Christmas Scottie
Friends Like You
Even though Christmas has passed, I still have a couple things to share to for the end of the July-December Catalog. First up is this adorable treat holder box and goodies. The gold polka-dotted box makes the perfect little tray to hold a couple sweet treats. This box just fits the plastic 3 x 3" clear boxes along with the Mini Coffee Cups. I decorated the clear box with a wrap around the outside. I used the Warm Wraps die to cut the band … [Read more...] about Friends Like You
Merry
I was at a local craft store not too long ago and came across these inexpensive wood frames in their discount bin. I thought they'd be great for crafting. I wanted to keep this simple so I left the frame the natural wood rather than painting it. I cut my pattern paper to fit the inside of the frame. I do find with inexpensive frames like this, you really want to cut to fit it as they tend not to be a standard measurement. The green pattern … [Read more...] about Merry
One More Snowy Village
As I was working on my Ornament for the post this past Wednesday, I kept getting these beautiful backgrounds behind the trees. But with the ornament and Cloche Domes, you couldn't see much of the sky in the background. Today's card shows that gorgeous background and you can see more of the forest behind the village. What's amazing is that all the backgrounds that I made have a color variation in them so they are all slightly different. To … [Read more...] about One More Snowy Village
