Darn, I was just starting to have fun with the petite pocket die and they retired it. :( I used it to make this pouch for a small package of M&M's. The apothecary accents framelits was used to get the decorative top on the pocket. I can't wait to see the new big shot products Stampin' Up! will offer!

Dress Card and Cupcake
I know you can't tell from this photo but the dress and cupcake are made with the same patterned paper. I used the scallop circle bigz to make the cupcake. I cut out 8 pieces, wrinkled them individually in the palm of my hand, gently unfolded each one, stacked and attached them in the center with a brad. Once they were attached I started with the center scallop and worked down, scrunching each one tightly upward and inward, around each another. Lastly, I gently unfolded each one into the form I desired. Hint: the thinner the paper the better. The cupcake liner is from my pantry!

Happy Birthday Candy Box
This little box has a top that can be left open to expose the content. I only decorated the inside cover. Now I'm thinking I need to decorate the cover on the outside too. That way it's cute open and closed! :)

Graduation Card
Congratulations to the class of 2013!
I used the Adorning Accents Edgelits to cut about an inch off an envelope, then attached it to a notecard. Now the card slips into the envelope and it becomes part of the card.

Just For You Gift Sack
Another bow made with the Dress Up framelits. However, this time for the center of the bow, I used the Artisan Label punch which is in the new 2013-2014 Stampin' Up! catalog. If you haven't seen the catalog you're going to love it. It's filled with so many adorable new things!

Butterfly Lip Balm Cover
This is holding a Softlips lip balm. I created it with the third largest die from the Window Frames Collection Framelits. I scored it at 1 1/2, 2 1/4, and 2 7/8. I only embossed the front section with the Chevron embossing folder. A few different tags and ribbons and you have a small gift for a friend.

Dress Up Card Stand
After thinking I didn't need this die I sure seem to use it often. :) I folded a piece of kraft cardstock in half and placed it a little below the top of the neck so it wouldn't cut. Now it stands and opens like a card! The polka dot dress is only connected at the shoulders so it can be lifted with a message underneath. I placed a bracelet over the top to make a nice gift for a special someone.

Just For You Petal Cone Container
I'm sad to see the Petal Cone die going. :( There are so many fun ways to use it, for example it makes the cutest little take out box, like the one I created. Who says just because it's gone from the catalog you have to stop using it!? Not me....

Tootsie Roll Pop Top
A peek at the new Stampin' Up! catalog gave me this fun idea. I used the Oval Accent Bigz and the Hearts a Flutter Framelits to create this fun topper for a Tootsie Roll Pop. It's such a fun way to present a little treat.

Pinwheel Jar
I learned the best trick from a local TV program. If you stretch a balloon over a jar, you get a colorful jar!! How fun is that!! :) I added a little pouch with a Hershey mini candy bar and a fun paper straw to spice it up. :) Love the pinwheel, but I struggle putting the little bugger together.
