Kit Kat Treats...Yes Please!

Hello & Happy Sunday!

Hope your all having a great weekend!

Yesterday was a great day around here. It snowed all day!!
We ran some errands to deliver my Christmas goodies then popped out to do some shopping.
While out we decided last minute to stop at a Goodwill & Consignment shop in our area.
I found 2 ceramic Christmas Trees that I snagged up for cheap! Took them home and cleaned them up and put on my picture table with my other 2 trees! The one (which is huge) needs a new plug on it which hubby said he will fix for me today. I will share a picture once they are all picture ready!
Also while we were out we stopped at the Steam into History train station and took some pictures of the train that runs beside the York County Heritage Rail Trail.
 It was such a great day and on top of that we had 6 inches of snow....more than what the weather people were calling for! The snow is great for bringing on the holiday spirit!

Anyways, today I have another treat to show.
I am always asked to make Kit Kat treats to here is my version of them this year.




I was a bit frustrated in making these because I purchased 2 bags of holiday Kit Kats and each bag only had a handful of the red wrapped ones in. Most were the green ones! So each bag only has 1 red one and the rest are green. I made 14 of these and then made 3 bags that have all green ones in. I will keep those and give to my gang for Christmas. 

Kit Kat Treats:

Stamps: Lots of Joy
Ink: Real Red
Cardstock: Real Red, Whisper White, Nordic Noel DSP
Accessories: Circle Layering Framelits, Jollee's Holly Stickers, Cello Bags, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

Kit Kat treats....YES, please!

Craft show season is coming quickly but I feel good as to where I am with creating stuff for it. There is about 6 more weeks until I wrap it up and that means things are crazy busy in the stamp room these days!

Thoughtful Branches Candy Bar

Hello & Happy Wednesday!

Today I have a cute Hershey Bar Holder that I whipped up with a 3 X 6 Cello Bag. 



I cut down a piece of designer series paper and slipped it inside the cello bag and at the top I folded it down over the front of the cello bag which is where I put my tree and sentiment. I added half of a Gold Foil Metallic Doily under my sentiment with a Gold Cord Bow. I love that the cello bag protects the candy bar nicely inside.  The Thoughtful Branches set has become a staple on my stamp table as it can be used for many different things! 


Candy Bar Holder:

Stamps: Thoughtful Branches, Lots of Joy
Ink: Garden Green, Cherry Cobbler, Early Espresso
Cardstock: Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler, Gold Foil Paper, This Christmas Specialty DSP
Accessories: 3X6 Cello Bag, Gold Foil Metallic Doily, Gold Cord, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue


What do you think?

Poinsettia Christmas Tags

Hello & Happy Tuesday!

Our weather here yesterday & today is gorgeous! 
Last evening we decided to leave the bikes parked in the garage and take a hike instead at Lake Redman. The lake was calm & peaceful. It was a nice hike other than the swarms of gnats that were close to the waters edge.


Tonight we will probably do another hike on a different trail which is fine by me. I like switching things up!

So, yesterday I shared a sunflower card that was made with the Two Tags Bigz Die. Today I have a pack of gift tags made for Christmas that I used the same tag and Woodgrain stamp on. I love these!




I used the Reason for the Season stamp set & coordinating Festive Flower Punch for these. I stamped up enough petals to make 20 poinsettia's and that's no easy feat but the outcome is always very rewarding! These are gorgeous! My saying comes from the Lots of Joy stamp set that is retired. The center has gold beads in them that I am not sure where they came from....I want to say the Dollar Tree. My gold string came from an Amish stamp store....years ago! I finally found the right project to use it on! All I can say is that these pictures do not do these tags justice.


Poinsettia Tags:

Stamps: Reason for the Season, Lots of Joy, Woodgrain Background Stamp
Ink: Crumb Cake, Early Espresso, Real Red, Old Olive
Cardstock: Crumb Cake, Real Red, Old Olive
Accessories: Festive Flower Bunch, Two Tags Bigz Die, Gold Beads, Gold String, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue
