Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and this little treat bag is quick and easy to make! I always include a little handmade gift in my thank you packages when anyone places an order and this month you’ll receive one of these treat bags!
I used the gorgeous Painted with Love Specialty Designer Series Paper, new in the Occasions Catalog. This paper is packaged with (12) 12″ x 12″ sheets and six of the sheets have gold foil accents – so pretty! It’s ideal for Valentine’s Day but it can used for any occasion as only two of the designs actually have hearts on them.
Painted with Love Designer Series Paper: 9-1/2″ x 3″ scored at 1-1/4″ & 5-1/2″
3″ x 6″ Gusseted Bag: cut bag down to 4″ or you can just fold over the excess
Powder Pink 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon: approximately 13″
All of the supplies I used will be listed below. Click any of the pictures in the list and you’ll be directed to my Stampin’ Up! online store. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to email me.
Add a strip of Tear and Tape at the top of the cellophane bag and attach it to the inside of the treat bag. Then add your treat inside.
Attach Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the Powder Pink 1-3/8″ scallop and attach to the front of the treat bag.
Wrap the Shimmer Ribbon around the treat bag in the middle of the top flap. This will keep the bag shut. No adhesive needed!
When you purchase the Starter Kit for $99, you’ll choose $125 in product from the Annual and Occasions Catalogs (had your eye on a Big Shot?). Plus during Sale-a-bration, you can choose two additional stamp sets – a value of $101 (bundles, kits and Sale-a-bration stamp sets are excluded). For more information, feel free to contact me or click here!
I really love hearing from you! Leave a comment or question in the month of January and your name will be entered to win some Stampin’ Up! goodies from me! Come back on February 1st to see who the winner is!
Today’s card uses the beautiful Sweet Soiree Specialty Designer Series Paper. Because it’s a speciality paper, the paper is heavier than our regular designer series paper and this packager has silver foil accents on one side. It’s really pretty!
Stampin’ Up! makes it so easy to coordinate their paper and cardstock! On each package of designer series paper, all of the colors that will beautifully match are listed on the back. Sweet Soiree coordinates with: Berry Burst, Calypso Coral, Daffodil Delight, Flirty Flamingo, Marina Mist, Olive Olive, Powder Pink, Rich Razzleberry, Whisper White and our Silver Foil.
Marina Mist: (base of card) 11″ x 4-1/4″ scored at 5-1/2″ scrap for scalloped square
Rich Razzleberry: 5-1/4″ x 4″ scrap for scalloped square
Sweet Soiree Designer Series Paper: 5″ x 3-3/4″
Whisper White: scrap for square with sentiment
Vellum: scraps for 4 leaves
Attach Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the Marina Mist scalloped square.
You can add a small amount of adhesive to the vellum leaves or simply attach them to the Stampin’ Dimensionals already on the back of the square.
Stamp your greeting first and then die cut it using the Stitched Shapes Framelits.
Finish the card by adding two enamel shapes on both sides of the sentiment.
If you have any questions about this card, please don’t hesitate to email me! I’m happy to help!
Don’t forget that you’ll receive free product for every $50 purchase now during Sale-a-Bration! One of the most popular items in the catalog are the cute Party Pandas.

Happy Friday! Today is our youngest daughter’s 35th birthday! Wow, it’s hard to believe our “baby” is 35! When she was born my husband was in the Navy. The month before her birth, he left on the aircraft carrier, the U.S.S. America, and didn’t come home until six months later. Yep, he missed her birth. That was really difficult but I had my parents with me at the hospital and my mom was my coach in the delivery room. Sweet memories! Happy Birthday, Erin!!!
Today’s card uses the new bundle, Charming Cafe, from the Occasions Catalog. The bundle includes the Charming Cafe stamp set and the Cafe Builder Framelits dies (these products can be purchased separately but the bundle saves you 10%). You have the option to leave the center where I have the sentiment (which is included in the bundle) as is or to cut it out. To see all that’s available in this bundle along with some tips for using it, be sure to check out the video below!
Powder Pink: 4-1/4″ x 11″ (base of card) & 3-3/4″ x 5″ (second layer)
Whisper White: 5-1/4″ x 4″ (first layer) & approx. 3-3/4″ x 3-3/4″ for the flower frame with sentiment
If you’re worried about getting your sentiment straight, stamp it FIRST onto Whisper White cardstock and then use the Framelit to cut the frame out. After I had colored the frame, I was worried about getting my sentiment crooked. Stamping it first solves that problem!
Emboss the Powder Pink cardstock (top layer) using the Layered Leaves embossing folder.
Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to pop the frame up. You’ll love the dimension it gives to the card.
Add a glue dot to the back of your bow to attach it to the card.
Thanks for stopping by! All of the Stampin’ Up! products I used to make my card are listed below and simply clicking any of them will take you to my online store. Don’t forget that for every $50 purchase, you can choose a Sale-A-Bration gift!

Hello! Today I’m sharing a card I made last November in Salt Lake City during the OnStage convention. It uses lots of new product from the Occasions Catalog and it’s all from the Petal Passion Suite (towards the end of the post you’ll find the link to my Stampin’ Up! online store for all of these products):
Petal Passion Designer Series Paper – All of the sheets are black and white. You can leave them as is or color them.
Petal Palette Stamp Set – 15 different stamps
Whisper White 1/4″ Organza Ribbon – This is very similar to the organza ribbon we used to carry that has since retired and it was my all time favorite ribbon. Just like the retired one, this new ribbon can be spritzed any color you want and it ties into a bow beautifully.
Petal Passion Embellishments – metal embellishments in a flower (with a pearl center) and a leaf.
The Petal Passion Suite also comes with a bundle that includes the Petal Palette Stamp Set and the Petals & More Thinlits Dies. I didn’t use the dies on today’s project but I did include the bundles in the product list below because you’ll save 10% if you purchase the two products as a bundle.
Petal Passion Designer Series: 3-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ 3/4″ x 3-3/4″
If you have any questions about today’s card, don’t hesitate to ask! I love hearing from you and anyone who leaves a comment or question in the month of January will have their name entered in a draw to win some Stampin’ Up! goodies from me!
