Here is a sketch created in My Digital Studio to help you get started stamping this weekend! Have a great one!
I love this cute little holder for Ghirardelli Chocolate! What a fun little gift to give your friends! This was very easy to do also! It is a 3″x 8″ piece of cardstock. I used the 3/16″ Corner Punch, the Word Window Punch, the Small Oval Punch, the Full Heart Punch, the Stampin’ Up! Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslits die, Whisper White Taffeta Ribbon, and the new Sending Love Epoxy Brads. The flower is a leftover from the Baskets and Blooms die basket that I made.
This cute little project was very simple! I used the new Stampin’ Up! Mini Milk Carton die, the Sending Love Designer Series Paper, the new Small Heart Punch, and the I {Heart} Hearts stamp set. I used a mini library clip to close the box.
This project was a little more challenging! Mostly because yours truly thought that she had the Petal Card die! Much to my surprise…I didn’t! lol! Can you imagine! It will be on my next order! So…I am not sure what size the die is…but I opted to try to make my own to fit this chocolate lollipop I had found that I thought was cute! I had bought several different suckers in my rush because I didn’t know what size I would need. If you have the petal die…this is so easy! Just fold up two of the flaps and you have a heart shape that you can slip your lollipop in! I do suggest you plan better than I did though! lol! I usually do…but I had something unexpected come up and I had to go out of town…so I did the best that I could on such short notice! I used the Sending Love Designer Series Paper, Stampin’ Up! Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslits die, 5/8″ Real Red Satin Ribbon, and the I {Heart} Hearts stamp set.
This basket was fairly easy to make. I used the Sending Love Designer Series Paper and the Stampin’ Up! Baskets & Blooms die. Instead of making the basket round I scored 1/2″ on the unscored sides and used sticky strip to make it more of a flat basket. I cut and scored the tag piece to create the bottom and adhered it with sticky strip also. I used the new Stampin’ Up! Scalloped Heart of Hearts Embosslits die, the Full Heart punch, and the Well Scripted stamp set for the sentiment on the box. A pretty in pink taffeta ribbon bow tops it off!
Have fun with this great Valentine Project!

Have you been dragging your feet on stamping up your Valentine’s Day Cards? Here is a sketch to get you started this weekend. Have a great one!
The idea for this fun card came from our Stampin’ Success demonstrator magazine. I loved the color combo of So Saffron, Cameo Coral, Bermuda Bay, and Certainly Celery. I modified the idea somewhat as the card idea was a non-traditional size…and I tend to stick with the standard card size. I love the simple clean look of this card. It was a nice addition to the I {Heart} Hearts card making class. I like having the more non-traditional color combos thrown in on the holiday classes.
The I {Heart} Hearts stamp set is so much fun to play with! The new accessories in the Occasions mini really help too! We used these new items to create this pretty card; SU! Embosslits Die, SU! Perfect Polka Dots textured impressions folder, 5/8″ Satin Ribbon, Sending Love Specialty paper, Pinking Hearts border and corner punch, and the Well Scripted stamp set.
