Valentine's Treat Holder

Hello again!  I hope everyone has had a relaxing & blessed day!  I have a new project to share w/ you today.  In one of my earlier posts I used one of Abby's itty bitty bags for a gift card holder.  Today I used it as a holder for some Hershey's mini's.  The itty bitty bags can be found here.  I used a 5 1/4"x 4"  piece of gray cardstock from Recollections as my base.  I used pink pattern paper for my next layer.  I then trimmed my itty bitty bag to 3".  I added a piece of red textured cardstock to the middle of my bag.  I adhered a white Prima flower to my red cardstock w/ glue dots.  I then wrapped Pink Midnight trendy twine around my pink layer.  The twine can be purchased here.  I cut a tag from the Silhouette store to add to my card.  I used the Jaded Blossom Got Candy? stamp set for my sentiment.  I hope you like it & thanks for stopping by today!  Enjoy!

1st SVG File Card

Hello again!  I have a new card for you today!  I'm fairly new to the papercrafting world.  The 1st cutting machine that I owned was the Cricut Expression.  I liked my Cricut but really hated spending $35-$100 for a cartridge that I would only use a handful of images from.  I LOVE Jaded Blossom stamps!  You can find those here.  Anywho I also follow them on FB & noticed that a lot of them had begun putting svg files on their cards/projects.  I loved them!  I started researching svg cuts & found out that those can be cut using a Silhouette Cameo.  After much debating, I decided to take the plunge & purchase one!  I sold my Cricut & ordered a Silhouette Cameo.  I was very nervous but am glad that I made the switch.  My Cameo makes such smooth cuts & does a great job cutting even the tiniest & most intricate cuts.  Another thing that I love about my Cameo is that it doesn't take cartridges.  I am able to buy single images for as cheap as $0.99!  Alot of them are also free!  Who doesn't love free?!?!?!  I got the image that I used on my card from Ann.  She owns SVG Cutting Files & has the cutest images!  You should go check them out!  I got the love sign language cut from her store for free!  It can be found under her freebies section.  I was really pleased w/ how my card turned out!  I'm glad you stopped by today & hope you liked my card.  Enjoy!!

Holiday Gift Card Holder

Hello again! I hope that everyone had a great Thanksgiving! A few days ago Abby from Scrapbookaholic by Abby hosted a blog hop featuring some itty bitty bags that she sells in her store. You can find them here. While hopping along the blog hop I came across a gift card holder created by Jamie from jamiek711designs.blogspot.com. I couldn't get over how cute her holder was! Since I have several gift cards for people in my family for Christmas I decided to recreate one. Here it is & I hope you enjoy!

Halloween Treat Bags
