I am sooo excited to share my project with you! I used the new Fancy Topper Die from Jaded Blossom!! LOVE this die! Seriously!! And of course it is attached to the new Gusset Bags that are being carried by Jaded Blossom as well. 


I turned it into an owl! Sooo easy!!!


Here are the details:

Scallop Circle: 1 Inch
White Circle: 3/4th inch
Black Circle: 1/2 inch

The nose was cut from a square piece of paper and then I used one of my circle stamps and punched out the corner. The bow is Trendy Twine's Thanksgiving Truffle.  I am also submitting this to their Monthly Challenge "Too Cute to Spook


Inside the gussett bag is a insert that I made by cutting a piece of paper at 3 inches wide by 9 inches long and then scoring at 1 1/4 and 3 1/4 and then decorating the front piece. 

The stamp sentiment Happy OWL-O-ween and hoot hoot are both from Happy Owl-o-ween. Inside the bag are butterscotch discs.

Jaded Blossom Stamp Release Blog Hop

Hi Everyone! Welcome to Jaded Blossom's October Release Blog Hop.  I just love this Release!! 
Now if your here from Jaded Blossom then your in the right place, if your just passing thru start at the beginning because you don't wanna miss anything!!  I also have the complete line up at the bottom.
And here is my project!! Tic Tac Wraps!!


These are perfect for craft fairs, co workers, stocking stuffers etc!!

I used the Fancy Topper Die for the wrap, Winter Wishes and Winter Candies for the snowman and Christmas Wishes and Christmas Candies for the reindeer one. I also dressed it up with trendy twine!

Now I know your dying to know how to make these right?
Good news, I have a tutorial for you!!

Step 1: Cut out your fancy topper die and insert.
Step 2: Score! I lined the middle of my topper die on the 5 on my score board and scored just under 1/2 an inch on both sides.


Step 3: Trim your insert. I lined my insert up along the lines on my paper cutter and trimmed off 1/4th an inch.


Step 4: Decorate your insert! I stamped the deer from Christmas Wishes. I also stamped the circle from Christmas Candies and I punched it out with a 3/4 inch circle punch. I also punched out a 1 inch scallop circle, did some inking and added some Trendy Twine!


Step 5: Add Adhesive to the back and side your tic tacs and add them to your scored and folded wrap



Step 6: Add pop dots to the back of your decorated piece. Make sure to leave room in the middle for twine or ribbon. Your going to end up tying that in a bow to keep it closed.


Step 7: Remove pop dots, add it to the front of your tic tac wrap and tie the twine in a bow! 



And then you are all done!! Here is another view..


Additional ideas: Stamp on the back, inside or the spine of the Tic Tac wrap :)

This fancy topper die made these SOOOOOO easy to make! I LOVE this die!!! So what do you think?

 - that's at least over $10+ in savings!

Jaded Blossom Stamp Release day 4!

Hi Everyone! Welcome to day 4 of the Jaded Blossom stamp release week!! Today the last two stamp sets are being revealed! 

Winter Candies! 

Winter Wishes

Now for my project, I created this cute hershey bar slider and then added one of the candy stamps to his scarf!


I wanted to show you that you can do more with the candy stamps then just putting them on candy. This cute little tag is the perfect accent and size for my hershey bar slider. I used a 3/4 inch circle punch to punch it out and then used a 1 inch scallop circle punch to layer it with. 

I accented the tag with red twine and hemp twine. 

The face is from Peachy Keen :)
