Tea Bag Holder Party Favors with Just Add Color paper

Hi Everyone. Today I am sharing a 'how to' on my little tea bag holder treats that I showed you a few weeks back.  I kept saying I would make up a how to, but then Christmas and vacation got in the way :)
These are super easy to make, and they are great to give to a friend with the flu or a co-worker, teacher, neighbor, who ever.  They would also be nice table favors at a luncheon.  



Here is a quick video how to:









The Just Add Color paper is thick enough for all your coloring styles.  You can Watercolor, marker, colored pencil, and use Stampin' Blends.















For this version I used the new Stampin' Blends to color in the teapot.  Colors here are Night of Navy and Daffodil Delight.
The sentiment is from Ready to Pop.















Product List




On this version I used my Aqua Painters and inks to color it in.  Colors used here are Lemon Lime Twist, Fresh Fig, and Berry Burst.   The Sentiment is from Hug in a Mug and it is going to be discontinued on Jan 2nd.

Apple Cider Packet

Hi Everyone! Today I am sharing a fun treat holder that is great to give a co-worker, teacher, or anyone who you want to give a little hug to.  I often give treats like this to the crossing guard who stands at the corner by the school on sunny days and cold ones. 
This project used the Mini Treat bag dies, great for just about any occasion, as well as the Coffee Cup dies and the Merry Cafe stamp set.  I just adore this stamp set!!  I love all things coffee and fall, the perfect combination.












Close up of the cup of cider.  I made a cup wrapper to look knit because the Junior High sells these at the coffee shop in town and they are very cute.  To make the cardstock look knit I used the Cable Knit Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder.  Love that!












Here is a quick video to show how it all comes together.


 Here are some images from the Stampin' Up! catalogs. I just love this whole collection! Don't you?

back to school teacher gift

Hi Everyone! Today I wanted to share some fun treat holders that I made for some Art Teachers my children had over the summer.  I decided to make another one for the new art teacher at our school and decided to film it as well so that you would have the directions. 
This is not my invention, I found it on Pinterest and thought it was just so fun! I love to watercolor, I love treat holders, and I love my art teachers, so this was a perfect project for me.  The original designer's name is Dawn Thomas and here is her original post.  It is such an awesome little box! I reworked the directions a little bit, and used a new die for the ovals as the ones mentioned were no longer current products, but the look is the same.

It is really simple and I made a quick how to video for you to see it step by step.



Start with a piece of basic black cardstock at 5 1/4 by 8 1/2, which means you can get 2 from one sheet of cardstock!! Score as shown below.

I hope you will give this project a try.  I think it would be a nice teacher appreciation day treat as well. Here is the supply list.
