Holiday Happenings Blog Hop with Stampers Dozen

Hello Stamping Friends,

I hope you are all well today. I know we are gearing up for a nice snowstorm on Wednesday. I legitimately needed milk today and I guess everyone was out getting their bread, eggs, and milk for the storm. The grocery store was busy and had long checkout lines. Somehow, I always seriously go to the store for things that we are out of and that seems to be when there's a storm coming and everyone else has the same idea. You would have thought it was a Saturday or Sunday.

Anyway, tonight we have a great hop with the Stampers Dozen group that is full of holiday happenings. Be sure to scroll to the bottom so you can continue hopping by clicking the links below.

I decided to go with a great little treat that you can pass out to everyone you may meet from now until Christmas. I used the Wonders of the Season Memories and More card pack to make a super cute but easy tag to attach to a sweet bag of hot cocoa kisses. Who wouldn't want this treat to "warm" the holidays a bit?

I also used the 6"x6" Tis the Season designer series paper to put behind the card tag and backed that with some shaded spruce cardstock. I used the All the Trimmings Ribbon to attach the three pieces of the tag together as well as attach to the bag.  The finishing touch on the tag was the Snowflake adhesive backed embellishments. In person, it completes the look perfectly. There's just the right amount of shimmer to make the treat a little more festive and fun to receive.

By leaving the pieces loose instead of attaching the layers together, you can write a "sweet" message to the recipient. 

Remember, keep scrolling so you can continue hopping along to be treated to more Holiday Happenings with the Stampers Dozen.

Thanks for stopping by.

Stamper's Dozen Anything but a Card Blog Hop

Remember to Create!

Hello Stamping Friends,

I'm back so soon. I love being able to share with you more often. My goal is to do it even more. What do you think? Want more creativity coming from this way? I know, I do. 

Tonight is the Stampers Dozen Monthly Blog Hop. This month we are doing anything but a card. So be sure to continue on hopping through the blogs to see many great creations from some talented demonstrators. I know you will enjoy it. 

I'm sticking with the Harvest Hello stamp set tonight. Yep, it's the same one I used yesterday for the Sisters in Stamping blog, but I just can't help it. I love this set. Tonight, I made a quick and super easy little treat to share during the fall. It's not just for Halloween because it's a plain pumpkin. I think these would even be good to place on your Thanksgiving table. Don't you agree?

You start with a 6"x 6" piece of designer series paper. You fold it in half diagonally and then you fold the two narrow end in towards each other to the center of the triangle (It's like folding a cloth diaper). Then you take the open end and fold just one end over the folded center. There's no adhesive used to make the pocket. Just a little origami folding holds it all together.

The real fun comes in decorating the front of the little pouch. I just stamped the pumpkin on mango melody cardstock, the stem on early espress, and the leaf on granny apple green (same color as the pocket). To finish it off you just cut a scrap piece of whisper white cardstock to stamp a little greeting on it. Attach both the pumpkin and the greeting using (my favorite) dimensionals.

Remember, keep hopping. You won't be sorry.
