Stamp Something Challenge 8

Happy Friday! It's time for another Stamp Something Challenge. Melissa is our hostess this week. Her challenge is to create something red, white and blue...........and have it be ANYTHING BUT A CARD! At first I wasn't sure what I was going to do for this challenge because I have no stamps that are even remotely patriotic (I know, shame on me). So I had to think outside of the box. I remembered one of my favorite color combos: Soft Sky, Whisper White and Bravo Burgundy which is perfect for Christmas, so that's what I went with. I know it's a stretch, but technically it's still Red, White and Blue right? =) The tin can be found HERE. It's filled with Hershey's Kisses.
-Stamps-Crazy For Christmas, Many Merry Messages and Snow Flurries
-Paper-Soft Sky, Bravo Burgundy and Whisper White
-Ink-Soft Sky, Bravo Burgundy and black Staz-on.
-Accessories-Scallop Punch, Circle Punches, Bravo Burgundy grosgrain and tin.

One of a Kind

This card was a CASE from the page 2 in the catalog. I never noticed it before since it's upside down, but I loved it. I changed it up a good bit though. I am LOVIN the Flower Fusion. I got them when they came out, and hardly touched them, now I can't get enough of them! I know I totally screwed up the background on this card, but at that point I already had the card done, since I wasn't planing on using a BG and I just didn't feel like doing the whole thing over. I really wish I would have spotted this card in the catalog earlier. This would have been a perfect make in take.

Cocoa Tins

Hello everyone! Sorry I haven't posted anything in a while. I've been trying to get ready for Christmas. I'm finally just about done with my shopping! I've been making some of these cocoa tins for Christmas gifts. The tins came from SpecialtyBottle. I used the 8 ounce size. They are very easy to make. I used SU's small cello bags, filled one with mini marshmallows, and the other with hot cocoa mix. I got the idea HERE. For the tags, I just printed the names from my computer. I used the RGB codes so I could print them in SU colors. Recipe
-Stamps-Snowflake Spot (used on one of the tags)
-Ink-Bashful Blue
-Paper-Dashing DSP, Blizzard Wrapping paper, Bashful Blue, Chocolate Chip, Real Red and Whisper White Cardstock.
-Accessories-Bashful Blue and White grosgrain ribbon, Scallop Circle punch, Circle Punch (I can't ever remember the size, but it's the biggest one SU has).

I think thats everything
