Fall Fest — Take Home Project

Yesterday I shared the final project from our Fall Fest Retreat.  Well, I have one more Fall Fest project to share with you.  It is the Take Home Project — everyone received a packet of supplies and directions to make nine additional cards at home.  There is no stamping, punch or die cutting on these cards — that doesn’t make them sound very good, does it.  These cards are awesome, quick and cute.  We used the Merry Little Christmas Memories & More Card Pack.  Some of the cards in the pack have words and lots of them work great for designer paper.  I love how these cards turned out and there are so many supplies left over to make lots and lots of other cards.

Fall Fest – Project 5 — Treat Holders

We have made it to the final Fall Fest project.  I don’t know about you but I love to give little treat holders to friends and co-workers during the holiday season.  So to help everyone get a start on little gift items, Project 5 was treat holders.  In this project, we used the Treat Tubes, Mini Pizza Box and an Acetate Card Box.

Each treat holder was quick to assemble so it’s easy to make a bunch of them so you are ready to pass them out to everyone you know.

The first treat holder held two of the Treat Tubes (we filled our with white Sixlet candies).
We used the adorable little snowman from Seasonal Chums stamp set — colored him with markers — Real Red, Black, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie and Sahara Sand.  Then we cut him out with the coordinating Seasonal Tags Framelits and cut that apart to use only the front of the snowman tag.  The Merry Little Christmas designer paper was the perfect black & white snowflake theme.

Next we cut a Acetate Card Box in half and created a fun cassette tape style treat holder.
The Merry Little Christmas designer paper slipped right inside the half a box — we added layers of circles which were cut out using Layering Circles and Stitched Shapes Framelits and the adorable little reindeer from Seasonal Chums stamp set.  He was colored with markers — Soft Suede, Crumb Cake, Real Red, Crushed Curry and then he was cut out using the Seasonal Tags Framelit — we cut him in half using only the front part of the tag.  Last we added a little Velcro Dot to hold the treat inside the box.

We ended this project with a Mini Pizza Box that we put through the Winter Wonder Embossing Folder — so cool how that will emboss cardboard too.  We put a York Peppermint Patty inside the box, wrapped the Striped Ribbon around the box and stuck the ends together with Glue Dots.  We added two Green Sprigs with Glue Dots, a Mini Ornament also with Glue Dots and then a box tied from the Striped Ribbon added over all the others.  This time we used the whole snowman tag and tied it on with some Silver Metallic Thread.

I hope you enjoyed all the fun projects that we did.  Tomorrow I’ll share the final Take Home Project which everyone received before they left.

Fall — Project 4 — Merry Cafe Cards

We are at the half way point for the Fall Fest projects.  I hope you have enjoyed the first 3 projects.  Today I want to share Project 4 with you.  It is an assortment of cards using the Merry Cafe Stamp Set — 2 Halloween, 2 Fall and 2 Christmas cards.  I used an assortment of designer papers — one is part of the Buy 3 Get 1 FREE sale that ends on Oct. 31 (Christmas Around the World).  The other two are fabulous papers from the Holiday Catalog — Spooky Nights and Merry Little Christmas.

I love all the color combinations.  This is such a fun stamp set to work with and the coordination Coffee Cup Framelits make it all quick and easy.

Here’s a close up of each card.

I love the chemistry beakers on this one.  You could tuck a little Starbucks gift card inside for an
extra special treat.
