4th day of Christmas! Many Blessings Card/Gift Set



I designed this card set for my Joyful Heart Stampers Meeting in October. The cards are very simple and the holder is simple and beautiful for a great and easy gift.

It takes our clear Acetate boxes and really any stamp set.  I just cut the boxes in half to make an open holder.
You can always leave the boxes whole and place cards completely inside. 
I hope you have fun creating these cute cards.
The stamp set is on the closeout list so be sure to get while it's available!

Here's a link to my complete pdf of the project

3rd Day of Christmas...Stamparatus Carrying Bag

Today is for you...and all your crafting friends!
Have you gotten your hands on the world's best stamp positioning tool yet?
Our Stamparatus is a force to be reckoned with and today, our carrying bag was released to the public. So, you can get the bag now, if you have the stamparatus or you can get them both together, at my store.


Here's just very simple video about what you can do with the Stamparatus.
Demonstrators have discovered so many more uses....google "stamparatus"!

For me, I think I'd have to say my favorite 2 things are:
1. background stamps...wow, talk about easy!
2. Cutting out my die pieces first and then positioning in a template in the stamparatus to stamp perfectly every time. Saves trying to get the die to hold still over my perfectly stamped design, only to move in the cutter and totally destroy what I had already stamped.

About the bag:
I can see it being used for things besides the stamparatus as well: how about embossing folders and dies, the cleaning pad would fit in there fabulously along with other tools you may want to carry with you, thus its called the craft and carry bag. You get to choose what you carry.

Things I love about our tool:
-We have moveable plates as well as being able to purchase extra plates, so that I can set up stamps for my complete project and have no resetting in the middle of trying to complete something. I can make 10 cards very quickly because I took a few minutes to position each stamp where it was to be and then did assembly line!
-The magnets are incredibly strong so I don't have to worry about things moving.
-I think it was so smart to design the moveable system so that if we want to create a design using the same stamp, down the card, all we have to do is move the plate and leave the paper in place...perfect spacing every time!

This needs to be on your Santa List! Purchase it here today for you and/or a friend.

2nd Day of Christmas--Ferrero Rocher Box 2 Thirds

I found this box, designed by Candy Ford....its so regal and beautiful. I think you'll agree.  It was very easy to make following her directions. Her measurements are Spot On!  After I made my first one...the one you see pictured here:

....I thought, I wonder if I could make a smaller one...needed something smaller to fit in a smaller package!  I made one and gave it away.  as soon as I make a second and tweek the sizes, I will post that here.  But for now, enjoy Candy's large and beautiful one.  You can see I used a different saying on the front because I didn't have the same as her's.  Easy enough!

Here are her instructions for this large one...or click on the link above:

Cut and scored with my Stampin’ Trimmer: (I personally love

to score with Simply Scored...my scores are much more precise)
  • Real Red card stock (CS) cut to 5-1/2″ x 11-1/2″ and scored 1-1/2″ from each of the four sides, for the box
  • Real Red CS cut to 4-1/16″ x 10-1/16″ and scored 3/4″ from each of the four sides, for the lid
  • Chocolate Chip CS cut to 2-1/4″ x 8-1/4″ for a layer on the lid
  • Real Red CS cut to 2″ x 8″ for a layer on the lid
  • Real Red CS cut to 3-7/16″ x 9-7/16″ and scored 1/2″ from each of the four sides, for the insert
  • Stamp the image on the 2 X 8 piece

Die cut using the Large Letters Framelits:

  • three Hs from a Gold Foil Sheet
Cut using the 1-3/8″” Circle Punch: (I used the 1 3/8" scallop punch since we don't carry the circle one any more.)
  • 3 circles from a contrasting scrap of paper
  • laid the die cut Hs and the punched circles on the insert to determine where they should go
  • glued the Hs in place
  • punched the 3 circles from the insert – fold under the 1/2″ side to get the CS all the way into the punch
  • 3 circles from a scrap of a Gold Foil Sheet, leaving enough room to stamp around the holes with the larger punch*

Cut with the 1-3/4″ Circle Punch:

  • the 3 gold foil circles, to make rings*

Assembled the box:

  • The box, lid, and insert are all put together the same way:
  • a) burnished all score lines with a bone folder for nice crisp corners
  • b) glued the tabs to the inside of the adjacent side
  • set insert into the box (no adhesive required)
  • glued gold rings around each hole
  • added candies to the holes – I put one Mini Glue Dot under each so they would stick to the bottom of the box and not move around in case the box was jostled.
So here is my Two-third size! It's just a HoHo
I think I've perfected the measurements:
  • Real Red card stock (CS) cut to 5-1/2″ x 8-7/8″ and scored 1-1/2″ from each of the four sides, for the box
  • Real Red CS cut to 4-1/16″ x 7-7/16″ and scored 3/4″ from each of the four sides, for the lid
  • Chocolate Chip CS cut to 2-1/4″ x 5-5/8″ for a layer on the lid
  • Real Red CS cut to 2″ x 5-3/8″ for a layer on the lid
  • Real Red CS cut to 3-7/16″ x 6-3/4″ and scored 1/2″ from each of the four sides, for the insert
  • Stamp the image on the 2 X 8 piece
