Christmas Treats Day #2

 Good Morning & Happy Tuesday!

Today will be a day of cardmaking for Audrey! She called me twice within 10 minutes yesterday to order her cards for December so I am going to get right on them. Saturday morning my girls are coming over for a Christmas Stamp Day with Friends and thankfully I am prepared for that! 

Today is also Ryan's 38th birthday! Going to make his favorite taco's for dinner this evening since he does not like to go out to eat. I made a card for him that I put money in so he can do some online shopping. I will share that card soon!

It is day # 2 of sharing my Christmas treats with you and this one is one of my favorites!

In the Stampin Up 2024 Holiday Mini Catalog these boxes are included in the Reindeer Days Suite Collection and I wanted to fancy them up for Christmas!

Project Details:

Stamps: To Every Season (retired), Decorative Trees (Million Dollar Sales Achiever Set)

Ink: Garden Green

Cardstock: Real Red, Garden Green, Granny Apple Green, Basic White, Garden Green Glimmer Paper, Take A Bow DSP

Accessories: Circle Layering Framelits (retired), Decorative Trees Dies, Real Red Ribbon (retired) Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Each book box has 2 Reese's PB Trees inside. You could also add a few dollars or even a gift card inside to sweeten the deal! I made 10 of these in the 2 patterns shown. Since these boxes don't require much to assemble, they are quick & easy to whip up!

Christmas Pillow Boxes

 Hello & Happy Monday!

Hope you all had a nice weekend! It sure got COLD here!

I think winter has arrived, unfortunately.

Today I want to share with you some of the Christmas treats I made this year. 

I found this pack of Pillow Boxes that came out earlier this year in the Spring Mini Catalog with the Bee Mine Suite. I never used them and since I am trying to clean out my drawers and use up things I decided to use these for treats this holiday. 

Project Details:

Stamps: Snowy Wonder, Itty Bitty Christmas (retired)

Ink: Real Red, Garden Green, Memento Black, Real Red Stampin Blends

Cardstock: Basic White Real Red, Snowy Scenes DSP

Accessories: Snowy Wonder Dies, Circle Layering Framelits (retired), Classic Label Punch (retired), Star Enamel Dots (retired), Rhinestones, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

My penguins were diecut from the DSP which makes things go much faster. I love having that option! Each pillow box is filled with 2 of those Festive Oreo Cookies that I found at Target. I made 10 of these.

So, Shawn has been on vacation since the Friday before Thanksgiving and today he went back to work. We did alot during his time off. Lots of shopping and lots of decorating. We cooked Thanksgiving dinner together and watched alot of Hallmark Christmas movies! I almost hated to send him back to work but life has to go back to normal, right?! Today is my cleaning day and my house majorly needs it! Ryan does his darndest to stay out of my way until I am done which I do appreciate. I will be happy when I can actually relax after all that!

 I hope that you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving/weekend.
