New Catalogue Countdown Sneak Peek - 3 days to go. Birthday Blooms Treat Pouch

There really is not long to wait for the new Spring Summer Catalogue and the wonderful Sale-a-Bration!  

Today I am going to share a cute little gift holder with you that features one of the new Stamp Sets Called Birthday Blooms.

It is so much fun to colour and here I have coloured onto Smoky Slate Card for a slightly different effect.

As well as the beautiful flowers you get 3 gorgeous greetings including this one, and the scrummy heart boarder and a couple of stamps you can use as backgrounds

The treat bag was made using just part of the treat bag die.

If you would like to know more about how to make this project please just get in touch

Halloween Week - How to Make Haribo Sweet Treat Wraps

Can you believe this is the last project in our week of Halloween Projects?  As you may know I love to make little treats to had out and like to have some sweets ready for Halloween trick or treaters.  When I saw the Haribo Trick or Treat bags I knew what I wanted to do this year.

These wraps are made from 4 inch wide strips of paper scored 3 inches in from each end.  I stapled the bags of sweets inside and then I had fun decorating them.

This one 

even has a surprise on the inside ...

I love these Witches Hats in the Black Glimmer Paper

I hope you have enjoyed Halloween Week as much as I have and that it has inspired you to have some spooky stamping fun.  

Back to what passes for normal round here tomorrow - see you then!

Halloween Week - How to Make a Treat Pouch with the Gift Bag Punch Board

Sometimes for Halloween you might want to give a little treat which does not involve calories and the treat pouch I am sharing today could hold sweets but is ideal for a little lip balm or something similar.

This cute pouch is really easy to make using the Punch Board Gift Bag.  Rather than making a whole bag I started with a piece of paper measuring 12cm by 15 cm (4 3/4 x 6 inches) and punched and scored two bag sides next to each other.  I then punched the top and trimmed out some sections to end up with a template that looks like this.

I then had a fun decorating the pouch.  Oh and if you like roses this lip balm from Rose and Co is lush!

Check back tomorrow for the next project from Halloween Week - a make in a moment decoration which could last you all autumn.  Can you believe we only have two more projects to go?

Halloween Week - How to Make Paper Treat Cones

Back in 2010 I shared an advent project with some of my lovely customers that was made up of pretty cones and I had forgotten all about it and how much fun it was to make until I saw it hanging up and still looking great at one of their houses last Christmas.  I remember thinking how fun they would be as cones to fill with pop corn on a movie night, or with sweets at a candy bar.

What better time of year to have a candy bar than at a Halloween Party!  Most of these cones were made using a piece of paper measuring 6x6 inches.  The large one, which would be great as a popcorn bucket or to serve other treats in was made using a 12x12 sheet.

These are easy to make and you could get the whole family involved in doing them.  

You fold the square in half diagonally, then open it out again.  Take each side into the middle and form a kite shape as shown.  Fold over the top.  Add your adhesive and stick the cone together so the two back pieces overlap.

For a party you might want to leave them quite plain and let the gorgeous papers do all the work but that does not mean you can't decorate them ...

Have fun making your treat cones and be sure to check back tomorrow for another project you might want to try if you are having a Halloween Party.
