Gusseted Mini Treat Bag for Class!

This week we'll be making this super sweet Gusseted Mini Treat Bag at stamp classes! We'll use the new Mini Treat Bag Thinlits to make the bag, but we'll use it in a little different way! I'll show you how you can gusset the sides to get a little more "treat room" inside the actual bag!

And, as for the design, this is the design we made at my awesome upline's house back when the Occasions Catalog came out. I Loved it so much that I decided to share with my stamping groups! Plus, if you're at class you'll get a special surprise inside your bag :)

I hope to see you at class this week.

Easter CASing for a Challenge?!

So I found this super cute card HERE! It was made by Angie Britt, and I had to CASE it!! So simple and sweet. Then I got to thinking that it kinda fit the Sketch Challenge over at Craft Project Central. - So I decided to make it for that...

Now, that could be kinda rude if I was really submitting it to win a contest or something (taking someone else's card design). So just so you know, I'm not entering it for a contest! I'm giving all the credit to Angie! And thanks to her for the great inspiration. - I might even make a few more to send out for Easter! I just love this card! 

I hope you're inspired to make a card too - And here's the sketch that I used (I did turn the original design from portrait to landscape):
