A Chocolate Treat

Last week I showed you a card I had made with some 'leftovers' (picture below) and today I'm showing you a treat box which was made to match.

I needed a small gift for a work colleague and, having already made the card, I decided to make a matching box to hold a small box of chocolates.
The box is made with some sturdy white cardstock (non SU) and decorated with stamps from Field Flowers in Elegant Eggplant and Wisteria Wonder. The sentiment is from A Word For You, punched with the Decorative Label punch and finished with a couple of Basic Rhinestones.

Another Aperture

A card very similar to yesterday's but I have used Summer Starfruit for this one. The aperture is cut with one of the Window Frames Collection dies and uses another of the stamps from Fabulous Florets.
I stamped the flowers in Versamark onto Summer Starfruit cardstock and embossed using clear embossing powder before fussy cutting them. The leaves this time are again from the Bird Builder punch but in Chocolate Chip. I added a knot Summer Starfruit Stitched Satin ribbon and a Basic Pearl in the flower centres. There's no sentiment on today's card as I'm not sure what I want yet!
Tomorrow I have a 3D item to match a card I showed you last week.

Halloween Treat Bag

This is a Halloween Treat Bag I have made to show some more of the new products available in the new Autumn/Winter catalogue. The stamps are from a set called Googly Ghouls which also has a ghost, a witch, a 'Frankenstein' and a spider stamp - perfect for all those Halloween crafts which seem to have become increasingly more popular over the past few years. To accompany this stamp set there is a kit, called Ghoulish Googlies Designer Kit, which contains 20 printed double-sided tags, 10 glassine treat bags, 50 self-adhesive googly eyes and 10 pieces of Baker's Twine and costs £7.25 (if you purchase this kit along with the stamp set you save 15% on the total price!). For the bag topper I used a piece of the Howlstooth DSP, cut with one of the dies from the Window Frames Framelits collection and secured with a knot of Basic Black Narrow Taffeta Ribbon. The bat was stamped in Basic Black, cut with the smallest die from the Window Frames Framelits which was sponged around the edges, and two googly eyes added.
Have a great weekend and I'll try to be back soon x
