Sweet Talk Valentine Treat Holder



 Hey Scrappers!

Who needs some easy treat holders? If you do, then this sweet Pixie Stix holder is for you! It will hold three pixie stix. I found these at a local store here in town called the PopShop-they are new here so not sure if they have them in all states, but the bag has approximately 50 sticks for $1, so a great value.



To Create my Project:

1.) Using your Paper Timmer cut a piece of Highland Heather cardstock to 5-1/2" x 2-5/8" and a piece of Sweet Talk Designer Series Paper to 5" x 2-3/4"

2.) On the 2-5/8" side with your Simply Scored Scoring Tool, score @ 3/8" and 1-1/2", then fold and burnish your score lines.

3.) The 3/8" side of the cardstock-run a strip of Tear and Tape down the edge and adhere the holder together.

4.) Wrap the designer paper around the holder and secure in place with an additional piece of Tear and Tape.

5.) Using your Mini Stampin' Cut and Emboss Machine die cut your pieces out and using the Mini 3 heart stamps stamp with Highland Heather and Petal Pink banners then adhere all the pieces with Tombow.

Awesome Otters Birthday Card


 Hey Scrappers!

What do you think of these cute Otters? They are so cute and you can get them for FREE during our Sale-A-Bration promotion currently going on now. 

I went totally outside of my comfort zone today and created a card. I am more of a Scrapbooker, but I do create birthday cards for friends and family.

The card looks complicated, I know with all the circles, but I promise you it's not! I used the Picture This Dies that created the circles for you-YAY! 


To create my card:

1. Using the Stampin Cut and Emboss Machine cut out the circle frame from the Picture This Dies out of Pool Party cardstock. 3-1/2" x  5-3/8"

2. Cut a piece of Basic White cardstock to 3-1/2" x 5-3/8" and stamp your images from the Awesome Otters stamp set.

3. Using your Stampin Blends of Pool Party, Light Melon Mambo, Ivory, and Light Calypso Coral color your images, then apply a layer of Wink of Stella.

4. Cut a piece of Sunshine & Rainbows Designer Series to 4-1/2" x 5-1/2" and apply to the base of your card, then add some Stampin Dimensionals to the back of your Pool Party cardstock piece before adhering to your Basic White piece.

Sweet Conversations with Sweet Talk Designer Series Paper


 Hey there, Scrappers!

What do you think about these braided borders? I am really liking how the pieces came together. I really enjoy finding ways to use paper pieces like a puzzle and seeing how they may fit together.



I REALLY love the Sweet Talk Designer paper above-the colors are just perfect for all your Valentine treats and cards.

To create my page:

1. Using various patterns Sweet Talk Designer Series Paper with Layering Circle Dies choose a circle that you like and begin die cutting with paper and cardstock.

2. Next, use your scissors to cut each circle into fourths, then create a pattern with all your circle cut pieces. I HIGHLY recommend that you use a repositionable tape runner to adhere your pieces down in case you have to rearrange some, you won't tear your papers.

3.) Your base is 12" x 12."  Middle DSP piece is 7" x 11". Border Bases are 2" x 11" 
Photo Mat Bases are: 4-1/4" x 6-1/4" and the decorative mats are: 4" x 6"
