Countdown to Christmas - Day 18 - Take Out Boxes

Welcome welcome welcome!! Thanks for coming by to see what we have in store today.

I grabbed these take out boxes from the clearance section for about $2 and just knew I had to use them for a Christmas project. I saw something like this on pinterest and thought it was ingenious. Cutting off the closure to have an open box was brilliant. And it's such a unique shape. So I followed the instructions and cut off the 4 top pieces and then stapled the corners together. But instead of tucking them in, I popped them out to create the unique shape. If you tie some bows with the stitched edge ribbon, it makes this so adorable!!! I stamped the sentiment from Wonderful year on basic black card stock. I still can't decide whether I like it better in white embossing powder or the real red glitter embossing powder. What do y'all like best?

Come back later to see what we will do for day 19!

Until next time!!!

Countdown to Christmas - Day 8 - Candy Cane Kisses

MMMMMMMMM... Candy Cane Hershey Kisses........Do y'all LOVE these candies?? I wait all year just so I can get my hands on them. They are the only thing better than caramel candy corn. (Which I am on my last bag, by the way)

I thought I had better find a way to package these babies up so I could let everyone else enjoy them too! I know, I'm such a giver...It was super easy to do after seeing everyone posting about last month's paper pumpkin kit! These test tubes are so trendy right now. And if you tie some of the real red stitched edge ribbon 'round the top... it makes them FAB! The tin of tags stamp set has this adorable sentiment that reads "Warm wishes and mistletoe kisses" I just couldn't resist using that for this project! Oh... and I used the BRAND SPANKING NEW stitched shapes framelits for the whisper white circle. Do you have these? If not, you better RUN, because they are available NOW! What's that you say? I KNOW!!!!! They were not set to release until next catalog... BUT Stampin' Up loves us! And let us get them in advance. And not just demonstrators... everyone!!! *golf clap*

PLUS the tin of tags is on sale until the end of the month for $15.75. Holy mess. If you follow me you have seen/will see this set on almost ALL of my Christmas projects. It is SO VERSATILE! 

If you want to hear me babble about on video and watch this project come to life, click here.

Come back again and we will make something else absolutely adorable, just for funsies. ;-)

Until next time...

Hey Y'all... Here's our double ''duty'' card. Haha. I'm so juvenile. This card is a countdown to Christmas AND a stash in a flash. It is simple, yet elegant and I absolutely love it.

It features the Tin of Tags stamp set which is on sale right now. Go grab yours at 25% off!!!
I love using soft sky with snowflake images. I think it is the perfect color!

I added a few of the star subtles enamel shapes just to add a bit of bling to this card.

Until next time...
