Here’s a fun card I created for my Hostess Luncheon last spring.  I know this photo makes it looks very crooked, but it’s only half as off as it looks LOL.  Also, I created a video on how to color in our edgelits to get the Gable Green on the embossed edge.  Be sure to scroll down to watch!

Thankful Treat

For that Special

Thanksgiving Dinner

Hostess

Do you ever want to take just a little something to your family member's house to say "Thank You for hosting the family dinner this year"?  Here's a simple project that you can make and snap, but your family member will be touched that you thought of her (or him).

The old olive card stock is cut 9" x 5".  Scored at 4", 4.5" & 8.5".  Cut window using the Labels Framelit die.  Fill a cello bag (stamped using the Woodgrain background stamp and White Stazon ink) with nuts, or other goodies, and place inside fold.  Seal at top tucking the 1/2" smallest fold inside and adhering with Sticky Strip.  The leaves were cut from the Autumn Accents die (holiday catalog) and embossed with the woodgrain textured embossing folder (also in holiday).  The For You and it's background come for the Mixed Medley Hostess Set (again, the holiday catalog).  The ribbon is Satin stitched in Summer Starfruit and held on with a clothes pin from a big box store.

This was another idea for the Special Stampin' Up! Workshop I did last month (so ...no my design!  Thanks to Jen of SU Corporate!!)

Until Next Time . . .
