Monster Munchies Gum

A small Halloween project. :)  The Stampin' Up! holiday catalog has the cutest Halloween stamp sets.  I was so excited about them, I started making Halloween projects the day I received the sets!  This stamp is from the Monster Munchies set, which I can see myself making lots of fun things with! It's so stinkin' cute and perfect for Halloween treats!

Brown Sack Note Card Holder

I used three new Stampin Up! items to turn a simple brown sack into a note card holder.  The chevron embossing folder, apothecary accents framelit, and delicate doilies sizzlit.  The flower and heart were a couple of pieces I had laying on my work area I hadn't gotten around to using.  I have lots of those, do you? :)

Turquoise Petite Purse

This is one of the easiest die cuts to fold and put together, and yet it looks like you put a lot of effort into it.

Miniature Candy Bar Stack

Three little Hershey miniature candy bars can make the sweetest little treat. The smaller circle, on the perfect pennants die, creates the perfect size wrapper.  Smaller ribbon fits nicely through the slots in each wrapper for a fun way to tie it all together.

Daisy Envelope

This is supposed to be a gift card holder but the great thing about crafting is you're only limited to your imagination.  I left the top open and placed a package of gum inside.  If you look closely you'll notice the flower petals are made using a heart punch.

Uncle Sam's Hat

In Utah we have a state holiday (Pioneer Day) on July 24.  We keep the Americana theme going from July 4 through July 24.  My Uncle Sam hat is a little late for the 4th but can still be used for the 24th. :)  It's made with a pillow box and a strip of blue paper.  I think it's pretty darn cute, what do you think? :)

A Little Watermelon

Watermelon seems appropriate for this time of year. :) I used three easy items, a matchbox bottom, cello bag and bag topper to create this yummy summer treat.

Cheers To You

Water... it's exactly what most of us need, due to the heat wave most of our country is suffering.  I made a small pouch with the two tags die, placed a Propel water mix inside and tied it together with a ribbon.  Cheers...
