Today’s card features the Scottie Dog Punch. When I first saw this punch, I didn’t purchase it but after seeing so many cute cards using it, I had to have it. You can also purchase this punch as a bundle which also includes the Christmas Scottie stamp set.
I started with a piece of Pumpkin Pie cardstock and then added a layer of Basic White cardstock that I embossed using the Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder. Before adding it to the card base, I stamped the sentiment in Memento Ink using the stamp set, Fond of Autumn, and I added a strip of Gingham Cottage Designer Paper (DSP). I like to adhere the DSP before adding it to the card base just in case the paper needs to be trimmed a little.
I used the Layering Circles Dies to cut a scalloped circle out of Basic Black cardstock and another smaller one out of Pumpkin Pie cardstock. Then, I cut a circle out of Basic White cardstock. I adhered all the pieces together and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the DSP.
I used the Scottie Dog Punch to cut the dog out of Basic Black cardstock and I used Gingham Cottage DSP to cut his bow. I used a Mini Stampin’ Dimensional to attach the bow to the dog and our regular Stampin’ Dimensionals were added to the back of the dog and then it was adhered to the Basic White circle. To complete the card, I added a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and then added three Elegant Faceted Gems to the card front.

Today’s card features the Cottage Wreaths Bundle which includes the Cottage Wreath stamp set and the Country Wreaths Dies.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the card base.Then I added a layer of Basic Black cardstock and Paper Pumpkin cardstock that I embossed using the Leaf Fall 3D Embossing Folder. Next, I added a layer of Basic Black cardstock with a piece of Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper (this package includes 48 sheets). I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered this layer to the front of the card.
I used the Country Wreaths Dies to cut a wreath out of Basic Black cardstock and another out of the same design of Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper that I used for the previous layer. I glued the two pieces together using Multipurpose Glue and then adhered the wreath to a scalloped circle that I cut out of Basic White cardstock using the Layering Circles Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it the front of the card.
I used the Cottage Wreath stamp set to stamp “Boo” onto a piece of Basic White cardstock in Memento ink and then cut it out using the Stylish Shapes Dies. I added two Stampin’ Dimensionals in the middle of the banner and adhered it in the center of the wreath. To complete my card, I added two Matte Black Dots to either side of the sentiment.

Today I have another treat holder to share with you today that was made using the Stampin’ Up! Fresh Cut Flowers Bundle and the Mini Pocket Envelope Dies. The Fresh Cut Flowers Bundle includes the stamp set, Fresh Cut Flowers and the Fresh Cut Stems Dies. During the month of September (or while supplies last) you can purchase the Fresh Cut Stems Dies or if you don’t have the stamp set, the bundle is available with a savings of 10%. This bundle is part of the Perfect Partners Promotion. Six current stamp sets have coordinating dies that will only be available this month!
I used the the envelope die in the Mini Pocket Envelope Dies to cut a piece of Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper. Then I folded on all the score lines and added Mini Glue Dots to the side and bottom tabs BUT I would recommend using Tear & Tape or Multipurpose Glue. When I made the one I shared last week (you can see it here), I added Baker’s Twine and I noticed no puckering. When I made this one, I did notice puckering. I could have added more Mini Glue Dots but next time, I’ll just use Tear & Tape.
Next, I stamped the flowers from the stamp set, Fresh Cut Flowers, onto a piece of Basic White cardstock using Memento Ink. Then I colored the flowers using my Stampin’ Blends: Fresh Freesia (Light and Dark), Old Olive (Light and Dark) and So Saffron (Dark). I cut the flowers out using the Fresh Cut Stems Dies, added adhesive to the back and adhered it to the mini envelope.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Fresh Freesia ink and the stamp set, Soft Seedlings. I cut the sentiment out using one of the dies in the Mini Pocket Envelope Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the mini envelope.

Today I’m sharing a treat holder I made using the Stampin’ Up! Mini Pocket Envelope Dies. If you need little treat holders, these dies make it easy to create them really fast! Since school has started up again, my mind went to teacher treats. I was an elementary teacher for 22 years and it’s hard not to think about the beginning of a new school year. I have a Ghirardelli chocolate inside and what teacher wouldn’t enjoy one after school? Yes, please!!
I made my Pocket Envelope using Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper and the Mini Pocket Envelope die. After cutting it out, I folded along all the score lines and then added Mini Glue Dots along two of the edges and assembled the envelope. Really easy!
Next, I used the Apple Harvest Bundle to stamp the apple in Memento ink onto Basic White cardstock and cut it out using the Apple Blossoms Dies. Before cutting it out, I colored it using Real Red, Granny Apple Green and Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends. I added my chocolate to the envelope and then wrapped White Baker’s Twine around the envelope three times and tied it off in the center of the envelope. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the apple and placed it on the envelope.
The Apple Harvest Bundle includes the Apple Harvest stamp set and the Apple Blossoms Dies. This bundle is part of the Perfect Partners Promotion. The stamp set can be found in the Annual Catalog but the dies (and bundle) are only available until September 30 or while supplies last. To download the flyer for this promotion, click here (there are two pages).
I stamped the sentiment in Memento ink onto Basic White cardstock using the stamp set, Lovely You. I cut it out with the Playful Piggy Dies (another set of dies in the Perfect Partners promotion and only available until September 30th or while supplies last) and adhered it to the envelope.

Today’s card features the Nature’s Prints Bundle which includes the Nature’s Prints stamp set and the Natural Prints Dies. I also used our new Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper.
I started with a piece of Thick Basic White cardstock for the base of my card. Then I cut three pieces of Gingham Cottage Designer Series Paper and adhered them to the front of the card (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List). To make it easier to add the wreath to the card, I added a piece of an adhesive sheet to the back of my Basic White cardstock, placed the wreath die on top of the cardstock (not the adhesive side) and ran it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine. I peeled the adhesive sheet away from the wreath and adhered it to the front of the card.
I stamped the sentiment onto Basic White cardstock using Mint Macaron ink and the stamp set, Nature’s Prints. I cut it out using the Natural Prints Dies, added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and placed it on the card. To complete the card, I added two Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels on each side of the sentiment.
