Cute Cupcake treat holder!


We made this easy little treat holder at last month's stamp club - there is a really cute stamp set in the Occasions mini called Create a Cupcake - it matches an equally cute cupcake punch! We stamped the base in Daffodil delight, the frosting in Pretty in Pink and the sprinkles in Melon Mambo. Then it's easy to hold the punch upside down and slide it along until the shape you want matches the stamped image. We learned how to cut the paper into 1" strips before we stamped so that we could save wasting card stock when punching - I'm so cheap - I'm always looking for ways to save on card stock! Then everybody punched out the little cherry from the red Glimmer paper - I love this paper and was making everybody use the teeniest scraps! See how I am?! We wrapped the paper around a candy bar and stuck the cupcake on the front. Too cute! Now I need a birthday party to go to!
Have a great week, watch for another idea tomorrow! Brenda

Masked Card

These little cards were quick and easy, we punched out a flower from a post-it note and stuck it onto these cute 3"x3" cards. Then we simply brayered ink over the whole card front, when we peeled the post-it not off we had a great start to a card that we could decorate. These we finished off by stamping the flowers from the Happy Moments Free sale-a-bration stamp set which we colored in using blender pens and our classic inks. Quick and easy! Of course I couldn't quite stop there so we punched a scallop border and added a little flower with a gold brad.
This is the last stretch of Sale-a-bration so be sure to get your order in if you'd like to earn free stamp sets! Let me know if you'd like me to send you a list of all the available sets!
Have a great week, Brenda
