A Fun Challenge W/ Vicki

 Hello & Happy Fri-YAY, Friends!

I'm ready for the weekend! Are you?

Tomorrow I am attending a Tesla event with Shawn and then hoping to get to pick some blueberries to freeze. I eat blueberries almost everyday so they will be a nice treat over the winter months.

Today my dear friend, Vicki & I are sharing a fun challenge....to make a candy dispenser box!

I haven't made one of these in quite a few years so this was fun! Since the 4th of July is coming quickly I decided to make mine with Red, White & Blue. It also helped that I had a bag of Red, White & Blue M&M's to put to good use!

Project Details:

Stamps: More Great Greetings (retired 1993), God Bless America (retired 2001)

Ink: Pacific Point (retired), Real Red & Pacific Point Stampin Write Markers (retired)

Cardstock: Real Red, Basic White, Pacific Point, Pacific Point DSP (retired 2023)

Accessories: Star Blast Edgelits Dies (retired 2019), Nested Essentials Dies, Stylish Shapes Dies, Circle Layering Framelits (retired), Rhinestones, Red, White & Blue Ribbon (from stash), Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Vicki & I talked about doing this challenge using Halloween & Christmas products, too!

That will be so much fun!

Hope you will stop by Vicki's blog to see what she created for the Candy Dispenser Box Challenge. I know it's going to be fabulous!

Christmas Candy Dispensers

Hello & Happy Tuesday!

Hope your all having a great day!

Do you remember back a few months ago when I shared the Candy Dispenser Boxes? 

Today I have more to share!

My dear sweet friend, Vicki shared a template with me for making these that prints directly out on your cardstock and then you have to cute it out and adhere with a good adhesive!

I have tried to put the template in this post but Blogger would not let me. Not sure if there is an issue with Blogger right now but I will try again to add it as soon as I can!

These are really fun to make and the kids really seem to like them, too!

I filled them with M&M's and placed in a clear cello bag and tied a tag on it with matching ribbon! They were a good seller too!

I used a different variety of stamp sets, cardstock & patterned papers on these. Most is Stampin Up products.

That's all for me today!

Thanks for stopping by & have a great day!

These things are so fun to make. I can't wait till the holidays come around and I can fill these with candies!

I have alot of this Winter's Frost DSP so you will probably be seeing alot more holiday projects with this paper. I love the prints & colors of it!

Candy Dispenser

Hello & Happy Thursday!

Today I have something different to share with you.

My friend shared the template to make the popular Candy Dispensers that were floating around on Splitcoaststampers a year or so ago. Now she has created a monster as these things are so fun & easy to make! Thanks Vicki!

I'm only going to share one today since my hubby just got in from work to take me to my Pain Management appointment this afternoon. I will share the rest eventually!

I believe that there is a template over on SCS to use to make these under Tea Bag Dispenser/Candy Dispenser. 

I decorated mine with some Trim the Tree DSP from last year and used the Spellbinder's Poinsettia dies to make my poinsettia. I added a large Gold Bead to the center and attached it with a dimensional. The sentiment on top is from a Hero Arts set and the twine is Cherry Cobbler. I will fill these with holiday M&M's when it gets closer to the holidays and sell at my craft shows!

Any question please feel free to shoot me an email, ok?

Well, I need to go get my clothes changed and head to Lancaster. 

Thanks for stopping by & have a great day!
