I've switched gears for my stamp set today as the Woolly Friends stamps set is out of stock. It will be back in the next week or two; however, I wanted to make this Case-ing Tuesday 548 sketch card and decided to use the same stamp set they used in theirs. Of course, I've changed it up to make this awesome card you could use for Valentine's Day or any occasion where you want to send your love. I have a video tutorial over on my YouTube channel with additional samples of how I changed things up in case you don't have one of the stamp sets. You can watch it here by clicking this link.
A place to share my love for paper crafting as an independent Stampin' Up!®️ Demonstrator.

Sending Love large banner treat box
Happy Sunday everyone! I hope everyone is enjoying some much-needed relaxation today. I have another treat/gift box you can use for Valentines, wedding or any time you want to send a little love to someone. I've combined two of the latest products by Stampin' Up! in this project. You will find a video tutorial over on my YouTube channel by clicking this link. I hope you will give it a try and make something special for your friends or family. They're pretty quick and easy to make. Of course, you could make this box for any occasion at all just by changing colors and decorations. If you don't have the banner dies, no worries, you can use two pieces of cardstock 3 3/4" x 5" and it will work just as easily. To make the banner ends, cut down in the center of one end about 1/2", then cut down from each side to the center cut to make your own banner if you would like.

Sunflower Love & Courage friend card
My card today is very near and dear to my heart. I've used the Making a Difference stamp set for 2025, Love & Courage, to make this card for my friend. Although, mine is specifically pink, this set can be used for any type of cancer and made into any of the colors that represent the different cancers. I think it's a must have in your collection. Who doesn't know someone who is or has fought the battle? Sometimes a little encouragement is all it takes to make someone's day when they aren't feeling great. You can watch the video tutorial on how I've put my card together over on my YouTube channel.

Sneak Peek of Heart Shaped Just Because I Care fold over treat box
Hello everyone. I hope you like the sneak peek of one of this year's Sale a-bration offerings by Stampin' Up! This is a level 2 set which includes a photopolymer stamp set and coordinating dies. I found some Italian milk chocolate hearts at my local Home Goods store and knew I would need to make a treat box to share them in. I designed two boxes, one with reinforced sides and front and the other with just a reinforced front so I could get two boxes from one sheet of cardstock if I were to make a bunch of them. I like to design boxes which allow me to get multiples from one sheet of cardstock. If you would like to see how I've put this box together, be sure to watch the replay over on my YouTube channel.

Snowy Wonder Wrapped With Love treat box
This week I am featuring the Snowy Wonder bundle. I'm sure if you've looked around the internet a bit, you've seen many projects made with this bundle. If you don't already have it, you might need it!
I've made a treat box sized to fit two Ferrero Rocher chocolates. I think this little box would make a lovely table favor or co-worker gift for the holidays. If you would like to see how I put it together, be sure to watch the video replay over on my YouTube channel.

Grateful for Peppermint Ghirardelli tuck tab treat box
For my final project this week using the More Than Autumn Bundle, I've designed a treat box to hold two Ghirardelli squares. I was inspired for this project by my youngest grandson who loves his cocoa with marshmallows and sprinkles. As I've said before, this is my favorite time of year as it's treat box season. This bundle of products from the September-December Mini catalog by Stampin' Up! just screams treat packaging to me. As Ghirardelli Squares are available just about anywhere, I wanted to include this box in my projects this week. To see how I've put this box together, be sure to watch the live replay over on YouTube.

Friends For Life Miss You card
Hello and happy Saturday. I hope you are enjoying your weekend whatever you are doing. For my card today, I have a miss you card using the featured bundle this week, Friends For Life.

To see how I put this card together, be sure to watch the live video replay over on my YouTube channel.

Triangle Treat box using Hearts & Hugs
For my final project this week using the Hearts & Hugs bundle by Stampin' Up!, I created this triangle treat box. I cased the box template from Marisa Alvarez. I loved how easy and unique this box is. You can get three boxes from one 8 1/2" x 11" piece of cardstock. Not only is it quick and easy, it's very affordable to make multiples. I put 6 Dark Chocolate kisses in mine, but there are a lot of other small candies (or jewelry) you could put in them. To see how I put my treat box together, you can watch the replay over on YouTube here.
