Fast Favor Box for Class!

This is the project we'll be making for class this week. I found the idea from another Stampin' Up! demonstrator, LeAnn Greff. I LOVE that it is so simple and made with the Envelope Punch Board. - I'm lovin' all the great things you can do with that new tool!

And we'll be using the new Watercolor Wonder DSP, new Banners Framelits with the new Perfect Pennants stamp set. - So many awesome new goodies from the Occasions catalog...

I hope to see you at class - I have lots of other new stuff to share with you!

Super Sweet & Simple for Class!

This super sweet little Coffee Cup is our project for stamp class this week! I'm usually not a trace the pattern kind of project person - but this little 4 oz. cup made me change my mind!! I LOVE 'little' stuff, and when I saw these coffee cups on other Stampin' Up! blogs, I knew I couldn't resist!

So I did make a template to trace and add some cute Designer Paper - and then I kept it simple with the "Holly Jolly" tag and a tiny silver bow! - And for those coming to class, I have a fun way to show you how to make this tiny little perfect bow!!

And, of course, the treats are included too!

Hope to see you at class this week,
