Hello Everyone and welcome to the
My Craft Spot Blog Hop! Kimberly is releasing 4 new stamps sets to her store at
My Craft Spot today and they are all so much fun! I feel so fortunate to have the opportunity to work with a talented papercrafter like Kimberly as well as the rest of the creative Design Team! If you have come from
Kimberly's blog then you are heading in the right direction! If you are stopping by to see me today (thanks), then you will not want to miss out on this! Head back to
My Craft Spot to start at the beginning! There are so many creative projects along the way, not to mention
Kimberly has given each of us on the Design Team a new stamp set to give away...YAY! There are only 9 stops, so please join us and hop!
We have been sharing our sneak peeks of the four new Stamp Sets all week and now we are ending the week with our best projects! I have made two fun holiday party projects for you today! Would you like to see what I have made for your inspiration?
My first project is a Halloween project using Candy Corn Kisses!
I have been working on sets of these invitations for weeks! I started back in July when Kimberly first told me there would be new stamps coming out!
I didn't know at the time that she would have these perfect party invitation stamps, but I knew there would be something adorable to stamp on them! You can imagine my excitement when I saw the Candy Corn Kisses stamp set!
Here is a close up of these great stamps!
I made these Criss Cross style invitations and covered them with a homemade pattern paper (Click
HERE to see my little tutorial on how to get this effect). I added matching strands of
Crinkle Ribbon to the invitation and adhered these fun googly eyes to the band!
The glitter on the bands is Martha Stewart's Glow in the Dark! I still have another dozen or so to make, and I think I am more excited to send these out to everyone than I am to have the Halloween party! These stamps couldn't have been any more perfect!
My second project is a Thanksgiving project using the Happy Fall Stamp Set!
I made little Thanksgiving treat boxes. You know how there is always that period of time before dinner where there are people sitting at the table just waiting for the BIG dinner to be served. I thought this could be a cute, tasty little snack before hand or it can be saved for afterwards (if there is room)!
I filled a cello bag with these chocolate & yogurt flavored nuts and raisins then tied it closed with
Chocolate Truffle Bakers Twine (that almost sound good enough to eat)! I stamped the "Gobble Gobble!" stamp on a vanilla card stock and punched it out to make a tag. I was thinking these could also double as name plates for dinner too by writing every one's names on the back side!
The "Turkey Time!" is another one of the fun stamps from the new Happy Fall set. The papers are a retired Stampin' Up! DSP and the colors are beautiful. Notice how the gorgeous Crinkle Ribbon matches perfectly! I cut the turkey from Animal Kingdom and colored it with Stampin' Write Markers.
The scalloped squares are from Plantin Schoolbook. Everything is popped up and layered with either SU dimensionals or Helmar Zapdots. Since Thanksgiving is still 3 months away, I only filled one bag for now. I'll be munching on the rest of these until it is time to stuff the boxes and the bird...mmmmm!
Ok, so who wants some blog candy?
Kimberly has given me my favorite stamp set to give away to one lucky winner today,
