I hope you can stand one more Fiesta Flower project.
This is the original idea I had in mind when I saw the stamp. I wanted to use it to make an embellishment for boxes by layering the image. Its very easy, but you have to like cutting things out!
I just embossed Fiesta Flower with Zing white embossing [...]

I use the clear card boxes all the time to hold… well… cards….
But I love the sturdiness of the plastic. Its heavier than typical acetate sheets so I wanted to try using one to create a treat box. This was pretty quick and easy, and ended up pretty sturdy once the base was glued on.
So [...]

I love this cute Mr. And Mrs Claus stamp – and I thought Mr. Claus might like to give Mrs. Claus a little bag of kisses. These mint kisses are really good (had to try one – how can I write an informative post without taste testing?). And I love the little snowflake-y wrappers.
This post [...]

I love candles during the holidays. They do so much to set a more relaxed mood. This is a very quick and easy project to add a Holiday touch to plain tea light candle holders.
For this project, I used heavy weight vellum cover stock. Its much stiffer and heavier than the vellum you might be [...]

Its starting to get a little chilly here (especially in the mornings) – and I’ve had this card in my head ever since I got this wicked cute sleigh ride stamp. So I thought I’d make it up and share a tutorial.
The card front looks like this:
When you pull the slider out of the card [...]

I made this simple little Halloween treat using some Oreos I found in the grocery store. I don’t know how they will taste – but the Halloweenie colors are great!
I used the House Mouse Halloween clear set for all the stamps. I’m really enjoying this set – there are so many stamps in it!
The bag [...]

I love these little Trick or Treaters from Eat Cake Graphics. I thought this set would be perfect for a hidden slider card.
With hidden slider cards, when you pull the slider, and image pops out from behind another image. In this case, the Trick or Treaters get their candy!
I made the card using the Trick [...]

I love Rice Crispie Treats (especially the pre-made ones!). I like to pretend that they are not really junk food because it has cereal…. Right???
So here is a little project to make boxes for giving the treats for Halloween.
The template can be printed on the back side of your cardstock. Each sheet of cardstock will [...]
I found a template for a pop-up gift card holder on the PaperCrafts Connection Blog and wanted to try it.
I have a bunch of teacher friends, and they always insist that one of the gifts teachers like best are gift cards. I’ve always made pocket gift cards, but thought this might be different and fun. The [...]
