Welcome to my Stamping Blog

Last night was a very special night for all that earned the VIP invitation to come to my Sale-a-bration Celebration.  All they had to do was spend a qualifying amount during Sale-a-bration and they were invited to my thank you event.We had a quick make-and-take using the Succulent Garden Designer Series Paper (DSP), which happened to coordinate beautifully with my Succulent Garden theme for the night.  By the way, I also used the Bitty Butterfly punch and the Elegant Butterfly punch...

I was "surfin' the net" for Easter 3D ideas and came across a cute idea from Erica Cerwin at Pink Buckaroo on her YouTube channel.  The original idea was for a Rice Krispy Treat Holder.  Since I couldn't find the Rice Krispy treats though, I had to rework the measurements and changed the color of the project to match my chocolate treat!I used Melon Mambo cardstock (c/s), cut at 4" x 7".  With your scoring tool and the 7" piece at the top, score at 2 1/2" and 3".  Then, turn...
