Have you ever looked at a Stampin' Up catlog and totally fallen in love with a project? Okay, I know that is a no brainer as far as questions go. I can just hear you saying, well I feel that way about many of the cards in the catalog. Me too!! But, the So Sorry card on page 137 was at the top of my list. Bet you can guess what one of the projects was for my Stamp Club this month – yep, this card! Did you know that the card is spritzed with vanilla shimmer spritz? It gives it such a pretty sparkle. And, the Baker's twine was actually white but became coral after a bath in the Primrose Petals ink pad. You could also dip the twine in a bit of reinker to get the same effect. I am always anxious to try my hand at the little details that appear in the catalog images. And, this really does work!

Don't you just love it when a product can be used in many different ways? The Pop-Up Posies Designer Kit really fits that bill! The pretty flowers can be used on cards or scrapbook pages, but when combined with the cute embossed paper tags, they make a gift bag come to life. And the best part, it takes about 10 minutes to create from start to finish. I know that I'd be thrilled to receive this cute treat bag. How about you? My daughter, Beth Klaumann, who is also a member of my Downline, created this darling bag for her friend.
Beth used the Blossom Petal Punch to create the leaves using the green polka dot pattern from the Good Cheer paper pack. Gotta love the versatility of that paper pack! The bag is a 4' x 6' cellophane bag from Stampin' Up!

I feel like a kid again! Stampin' Up makes it so easy to create fun goodies that are inexpensive to create and share. Today, as I ran my errands, I randomly handed out these colorful candy gifts. People at the bank, the Dermatologists office staff, my Hairdresser, and of course my husband were just a few of the grateful recipients. At my Stamping Club tonight, one lucky person will win the petite pocket filled with 3 candy tubes.

Although the heart stamp I used was part of an earlier promotion and no longer available, you could easily substitute the Hearts a Flutter stamp set from the Occassions Mini. What a fun and economical way to package a treat. A Holiday pencil, a piece of licorice, pixie sticks, etc. – you get the idea, could all be used. These would make fun party favors for childrens parties. The possibilities are endless!
