Valentine Hershey Nugget Holders

This is a very simple and cute project using the tag punches. The stamp set I used is a retired one. These would make great favors for any occasion by just changing up the image stamped.

Target Mailboxes

Here are a couple of pictures of altered mailboxes. The mailboxes are from the $1 spot a Target. Inside each mailbox are 5 scallop envelopes made by using the Big Shot and Scallop Envelope die. I'm going to have my kids write 5 reasons they like their teacher and have them give these to them for Valentine's day. There is also a 3x3 card that matches the mailbox.

Scalloped Envelope Box

Yes, you read that right! An envelope box:) This box is made by making using the Big Shot and scallop envelope die. Cut four of the envelopes and adhere together to make the box. Then decorate as desired. The scallop top can be adhered down to the box (which I did on this one) or left up for a little different look. Inside the box I decorated peppermint patties with Georgia Peach designer paper using my Scallop Circle punch and a regular circle punch (the 1/4 inch circle punch is retiring!). This is an easy project to make and a fun decoration or gift!

Top Note Card

Happy New Year!

Isn't this cute? It is easily made with the top note die. Just fold your cardstock in half and place your cardstock a little lower on the die, so it keeps the fold at the top instead of cutting it. I used the white craft ink on the Kraft cardstock, paper pireced the scallop circle and added a library clip to finish off the card. I got the idea from this card.

Birthday Beauty Tent Topper

This card is just like yesterday's post except it is for a girl! The princess's dress is paper pieced using Georgia Peach designer paper. It is so easy to make a card where all the items match since SU products (cardstock, designer paper, ribbon, ink, etc.) all coordinate!

Ahoy Matey

This set is perfect for boys! This set actually belongs to my son, but I "borrow" it from him:) This card layout is a tent topper card with a pocket. This pocket has another piece of cardstock in it to write a message and it also works great to hold a gift card or money. The Ahoy Matey set is retiring, so if you like it, get it before it is gone!
