Treat Bag Card or Gift Card Holder - Your Choice!

After starting a few more of these really adorable treat bags, I took this picture to show the difference just a few additions of color and embellishments make.
 Here the crumb cake treat bags are already embossed with the cable knit folder - they are just boring Crumb Cake before that.  I already had the pieces stamped and adhered to the contrasting colored circles.

Below:  just a few additions to really make these amazing.  1.  The right piece is sponged with Soft Suede ink.  2.  Tranquil Tide pine needles.  3.  Fresh fig pine needle pieces.  4.  Early Espresso pine cones in 2 designs.  5.  Gold thread wrapped around 6.  Fresh Fig or Tranquil Tide bow.
This design is from a piece I saw from a fellow demonstrator, Robin Smith.  She comes up with great projects!

Kansas City Regional Swap 2 of 3

 These cards are a SERIOUS CASE of someone's project from Germany.  I found it on Pinterest, and fell in love with the colors immediately.  It was the top of a box of chocolates, and it wasn't a stretch to convert it to a card.

I also made 36 of this card style, but only 12 of each color theme. 
The card base and sentiment background are the same, as are the mat and the Swirly Scribbles die cuts.
 Have you been able to work out the colors?  Wisteria Wonder, Blushing Bride, and Mint Macaron!
 The silver metallic thread is difficult to see, but it's caught behind the sentiment by dimensionals.  I like that technique - it seems to lock them in and the thread doesn't come loose.
 These cards would be great for a club project - they're quick to stamp... and you could pre-cut the die cuts - or have a couple of Big-Shots ready.

Many, Many Tags 1

This coming Saturday, October 15th, I'm having a Tags class.

Ok, so yes, I don't "get" tags...  I'll admit it. Do people save them?  Is this a secret club I'm missing?
Sure, they're cute, but it's a gift tag.  It was never a big thing in my family.  Yes, Santa put tags on our gifts but we never kept them.  Mom just took a piece of wrapping paper, folded it in half and put the name on it. (I still do this.)  Open the flap, and it's yours, or it's someone else's.  Like I said, I don't get it.

That said,  Stampin' Up! has come out with some CUTE things to make tags.  Therefore, the tags class.

As I write this, I've made 14 different designs for Saturday, and I'm not finished yet.

I'm not sure how many blog posts all these tags will make, but I'm going to group each set so my posts don't become so unwieldy.  Stamp sets, accents, etc.

Each tag will receive its ribbons for attaching to gifts.

 These two tags show embossed backgrounds - the bricks above, and the holly below. 
 I really like these double banners.  Line up the stamps to fit inside the spaces,and voila! You've got a cute sentiment for a card (or tag).
