Easy Christmas Treats

Here are some quick treats I made for friends using the Hug in a Mug stamp set* with Be Merry Designer Series Paper (DSP) and Fresh Florals DSP.  
*This is a last-chance item, available while supplies last. After January 2, 2018, it will no longer be available. 

The Tranquil Tide one on the right is super simple to make!  Just take some DSP and wrap it around your pack of hot chocolate! Seriously, that's it!  

I found specialty hot chocolate at the grocery store, measured it on my paper.  Mine is 6" x 10", scored at 2-/2" and 5-3/4".  I used Tear and Tape (this stuff is amazing, seriously one of my favorite easy to use adhesives) to glue the seem in back and used a belly band of ribbon with the circles on it.  

This fun holder is a die!  Yep, you just put the paper in your Big Shot with the Mini Treat Bag Thinlits Dies to make fun bags anytime you want!

Fun Treat Holder Ideas

Stampin'Up! has fun products to make quick and easy treats to give. These projects were quick to make and perfect for filling with goodies to give.

Petite Cafe Gift Bags (10 bags approx. 3-1/2" x 8", only $5.95) are ideal for dressing up treats with stamps, washi tape, die cuts and more.  These Kraft poly-lined bags are perfect for all kinds of holiday treats.
I used Under the Tree Specialty Designer Series Paper with the Star Framelits Dies, and added a strip of paper to make a banner.  Perfect for baked goods, chocolate or small presents.

Decorative Window Gift Boxes are so pretty on their own, I thought a pretty piece of ribbon was the perfect touch to finish the box. I filled this one with tags to give, but the window is just right for showing off your treats inside.  Imagine some yummy cookies in there!
Decorative Window Gift Box, only $4.95 for 6 boxes, food safe, 1-1/2" x 4" x 4"

 The Fry Box Bigz L Die makes a fun treat holder.  The Under the Tree Specialty Designer Series Paper is a nice sturdy paper to use with this die. I like to use Cellophane 4" x 6" Bags to hold my treats in this holder.
There are other sizes too (1" x 8", 6" x 8", Gusseted Cellophane Bags and there are even some fun Twisty Treats Kits on the Clearance Rack)

Gift Exchange beauties

Here's a few more of the gifts from the Holiday Gift Exchange last weekend.  You already saw my project, and Gina's.  These pretties were done by other people in our group.  Some items may have been cased, but they are all fabulous!

Glenda's tree was wonderful!  This was the first one I picked, but I didnt get to keep it.

This was the second gift I opened, I could not resist this awesome box!  So beautiful, the photos just do not do it justice.  Janet Weisheit made this wonderful box.

Inside she had a beautiful card and a cute gift pouch with M&M's and a gift card.  So sweet!  I didn't get to keep this one either.

Carn made this sweet tree.  Not as fancy as the one she made last year, this could be the travel version.

Crista made this sweet gift.  Loved how she used the Perfect Pennants die for the tree, then layered strips of paper onto the tree.

Holiday Treats!

So much fun and easy too!  Here's a great project that all my Hostess Club members received with their orders this month, it's filled with chocolate!  

I got the idea from one of the make and take projects at the Stampin'Up! convention this summer. It's so easy, just stamp your image using VersaMark ink on a Kraft Gift Box.  Put treats inside and finish decorating the outside of the box.  I wrapped ribbon around the box and put a pretty snowflake on top using the Snow Flurry die in the Holiday mini catalog.

Snowflake Soiree and Curly Cute stamp sets, Kraft Gift Box, Very Vanilla card stock, Cherry Cobbler Classic ink, VersaMark ink, 1/2" Scallop Dotted Ribbon-Cherry Cobbler, Big Shot, Snow Flurry Die, Jewels - Pearls, Mini Glue Dots, Dimensionals
