As we do throughout the year, my upline Kathy and another fellow demonstrator Robin and I get together to present events.
Our first even this year is for Valentine's Day. I decided to do some searching to find treat holders. One of my cards didn't go over so well last year and I wanted (needed) to make a change. Lots of the people I know give treats more often than cards - and Valentine's Day is perfect for treat giving.
I found this video on making the Ferrero Rocher mini coffee cup holders. I really love the Ferrero Rocher!
These can be made from any patterned paper. Thicker paper will require more sturdy adhesive. On the green flowered version, I just used a regular tape runner.
My next treat holder features my helper! I actually redesigned this treat holder from a version I'm presenting for Mother's Day. The treat inside is a lip gloss! For our event, I went and got all the flavored gloss. {Fun!}
Introducing... my Panda helper! I took the pictures of these projects pretty quickly, and Sandy was hanging around. He's a good kitty, but not very cuddly.
I just happened to catch him checking out the lip gloss. Lucky shot!
Now for the card I'm presenting. It's a very easy design and can be used for much more than Valentine's Day. Tell the people you love that you love them. Always and often.
I used Rich Razzleberry cardstock as my background, and gold foil paper with the Large Letter Thinlits. I hope you can get the true feeling of this card. It's stunning. The paper has gold foil accents.
There he is again. Softest kitty ever, and I do love him! My Panda helper.
This is the first time I've used an entire pack of Designer Series Paper. Yes, I have another pack since I ordered two, but I find it pretty exciting! I used an entire pack of DSP for one event. YAY!

If you don't currently have a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator, I'd be thrilled to talk with you about furthering your crafting pursuits!
