St. Patrick's Day projects

Here's the card I made for Ray for St. Patrick's Day.  I got the idea from the door sign we made at the nursing home on Monday night.

The cardbase is Lucky Limeade.  The white layer is 4 X 4 Whisper White with the scallop trim corner punch.  The shamrock is made with Twitterpated DSP punched with the full heart punch, and the stem is the branch from the bird punch.  I added a ribbon knot to cover where the hearts overlap.  The sentiment is from Teeny Tiny Wishes, punched with the modern label punch.

This is a full-sized Altoid tin.  It holds 5 Hershey's nuggets wrapped with an adhesive label stamped with the St Paddy's label from It's a Wrap Holidays.  I wrapped Pumpkin Pie grosgrain and Pear Pizzazz ribbons around the tin and covered the top with retired DSP.

Happy stamping!

Quick and easy stocking stuffer

One of this month's Creative Crew challenges is to create a holiday decoration or gift.  Mine is so quick and easy!  It's a little tin that holds 2 chocolate nuggets. 

The tin is an Altoids Smalls tin.  The tin is already red, so that saves a lot of work!  I traced the tin lid onto Holly Berry Bouquet DSP.  I chose the glittery red striped sheet, and I put the pattern on an angle because it reminded me of a candy cane that way.

The nuggets are wrapped with adhesive address labels (Avery 8160).  I sponged 2 of them with red ink.  I stamped them with the verry merry image from It's a Wrap Holidays in VersaMark.  I embossed them with Pewter EP.  I stamped the same image onto red cardstock and embossed it to create the sentiment on the tin.

Happy stamping!
