Big Shot Projects

Cute Nugget Treat Holder

Finally the long awaited 3D project I’ve been wanting to share with you all.  I’m almost done editing the video and hope to have it out tomorrow sometime. Crossing fingers since it looks like more rain tomorrow that the Internet doesn’t go down. UGH!

 

Top Note Nugget Treat Holder Ok so this project was one that I got as a Swap at our Stampin’ Up! Convention! I absolutely LOVED it. The idea came from Laurine Hartman, in Beaumont, Texas. Let me first say that I would show you the one she made but it’s didn’t make the trip back home from Convention.  I mean I couldn’t let the chocolate melt it was SUPER HOT out there! Let’s just say it was Yummy and Beautiful too!  I would LOVE to know what Top Note Nugget Holder Inside you think!

As I mentioned above, I should have the video ready for tomorrow so come back and check it out!  I willl also list all the Supplies that were used in this project too!

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stampin’,

Scallop Envelope Purse

Good Morning all!  Ok, so here is another share I have for you! I have been sooo wanting to make these for the longest.  I saw these everywhere last year and am just now getting around to it. Talk about Easy??? Oh, Yes, SUPER easy!  So let me tell you how it was done. If you'd like a photo tutorial comment me.

Thanksgiving Scallop Envelope Box Supplies used are all Stampin' Up!

Stamp Set(s): Day of Gratitude #120835, Teeny Tiny Wishes #115370
Cardstock: Whisper White, Specialty DSP Autumn Spice (this is YUMMY paper)
Ink:  Old Olive, Basic Black
Accessories:  Old Olive Ribbon 5/8, Dazzling Diamond Glitter, Dimensionals, Word Window Punch, Modern Label punch, Sticky Strip, Big Shot, SU! Bigz Scallop  Envelope # 113462

Basically all you do is cut out 2 of the Envelopes, Trim the bottom about a 1/2 inch or close to that. Then place both bottom pieces together using Sticky Strip and Ta Da, you got yourself a very cute little holder.  Which I do have to say holds 2 Ghiradelli Chocolates nicely inside!   If you still need the visual please don't hesitate to ask. I totally understand!  Also, I will have another post a little later!  Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Stampin',

Scallop Purse Tutorial

Yes, I am still here! I am so sorry!  Let's just say that I have had LOTS going on since coming back from Convention. Spent the Summer trying to get more Organized (work in progress) and really made a dent in things. But also wanted to spend as much time with my Son before he started 1st grade and he's be in school ALL DAY long.  I think he's finally used to it! Poor thing his first week he comes home and says "Mom, when do I get to come home early?" Awe! He didn't realize that those were the new hours now. Oh, then Hubby and  I were planning our Anniversary get away, had a blast in Cambria, Ca. Very nice and quiet there.

But anyway, am now getting back to the swing of things and wanted to start the week with a video that I said I was going to make of the Scallop Purses I made for Convention.  So enjoy and if you have any questions please let me know.  Thanks for stopping by and being patient while I get my blog back up and running.

Happy Stampin,

I'll for sure have instructions for this one when I get back home. Super easy and fun too! Yes, they hold a goodie inside, my favorite Ghiradelli Chocoalte Square.

Now colors used Rose Red, Chocolate Chip and Whisper White…I LOVE this color combo! Will have more details when I get home.

These will be a Make n Take at my house for my Open House in August. More details to come on that event. Enjoy and thanks for stopping by!

Baby Buggie Card Share

Baby Buggie CardOk, now here is the card that I wanted to share that totally matches the baby box that I shared yesterday!  Is it too cute or what?? I LOVE it!  The idea came from I card I recieved from Sandy Hancock at our last quarterly meeting! 

Recipe for Card:

Stamp Set:
Ink: Basic Black
Cardstock: Whisper White, So Saffron & SAB Designer Series paper

Accessories: Big Shot, Scallop Circle Die, White taffeta Ribbon, 1' and 3/4 " circle punches, trio flower punch, eyelet border punch, 1/4' punch (retired)

The only tricky part was taking the cardstock and lining it up to the edge of the Scallop Circle Die.  Next one I'll put it just a little bit closer. But just play around with it. Super fun to make and How cute the buggie!

DSC02605

Here they are together! I would so wrap the box in cellophane and tye a ribbon on the top and add a tag! : )

Now for the box…I just cut a piece of cardstock 3 1/8 x 8 1/2. Scored at 2 1/4 on the 8 1/2 side. Make 2 of them one for each box. Use your Wide Oval Punch or any other punch you may  have to make the handle.  Do one at time as the Cardstock is to thick to go through both of them. I also used sticky strip to attach to the boxes.

Anyway, Ill have some more ideas I'm sure when I get back from Convention. Any questions please don't hesitate to ask.  I'll have a sneak peek of my Convention Swaps tomorrow..I'm editing the photos tonight.

Thanks for stopping by and Happy Stampin',
