Welcome to the Stampers Dozen Blog Hop. Thanks so much for joining us. Today, we feature fall-themed greeting cards and projects. Be sure to visit all of the blogs. Leave us a comment. We love to hear what you have to say.
My card features Stampin’ Up!’s Autumn Leaves Bundle. Find it on pages 42- 44 of Stampin’ Up!’s September-December 2023 Mini Catalog. I also use the super popular All About Autumn 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper (available in mid- to late-October). And, this card is a fun fold. Specifically, an easel fold.
This card layout works well as a display card, and it lends itself to a variety of stamps, papers, and themes.

Purchase them as a bundle and save 10 percent. (If you love this, be sure to order sooner rather than later. In recent releases, our punches have sold quickly.)

On page 126 of Stampin’ Up!’s Annual Catalog, you’ll find the 2023-2025 In Color Treat Bags. You get 25 bags for $10. They come in the colors of: Copper Clay, Wild Wheat, Boho Blue, Moody Mauve, and Pebbled Path.
I love their versatility: Decorate and embellish any way you want and fill with any variety of small gifts.
In Color Treat Bag Ideas
In today’s post and related video (Facebook Live replay), I offer several ideas for using these In Color Treat Bags in different ways.
The first photo at the top of this post shows a Moody Mauve bag accented with current Stampin’ Up! product that includes:
Circle Sayings Bundle
Moody Mauve and Bubble Bath Classic Stampin’ Ink Pads
Subtles 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper
Nested Essentials Dies
Stylish Shapes Dies
2023-2025 In Color Jute
In Color Dots
I created a variety of these bags as a gift for those attending a recent event. The bags hold three of Stampin’ Up!’s notecards and envelopes.
Give the bag a little fold, add a belly band, and you create a fun pouch. I added some Stampin’ Dimensionals for a little gift as well as a sweet treat in the bag below.
Some of the Stampin’ Up! products used, in addition to the treat bags, include:
Crafting with You Stamp Set
Countryside Corners Dies
Fresh Freesia and Orchid Oasis Classic Stampin’ Ink Pads
Orchid Oasis Baker’s Twine

Click on any of the pictures below to shop directly from my online store. Please note: The supplies listed coordinate with the treat bag created in the. Thank you for choosing me as your Stampin’ Up! demonstrator. Please let me know if you have additional questions about the products I used.
Do you like to make items in addition to greeting cards with your paper crafting products? I know I love to make small treat packets and gift packaging. They’re fun to give out at classes and special events and to celebrate birthdays, say thank you, and more. These are also perfect for bridal or baby shower partyfavors.
These dies make great frames for cards, and they pair with the Countryside stamp set. But they’re also large enough to make a treat holder.
Countryside Corners Treat Holder
And, this design is easy peasy. Here are a few details. Be sure to watch the video below (a Facebook live replay) to see step-by-step instructions for making these fun treat packets.
Use the largest die to cut the image from card stock (5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″)
Score the die cut 2 1/4″ on each end
Choose the second largest die and cut some coordinating Designer Series Paper
Trim two inches off each end of the image.
Fold the card stock on the score lines
Glue the DSP to each side
Insert candy
Pinch the top of the packet together and punch a hole with a small hole punch
Add ribbon
Decorate as you wish
Enjoy these two additional samples. Which one is your favorite?
The above packets uses the Starry Sky design from the 2022-2023 In Color 6 x 6 Paper Pack with a sentiment from Country Bouquet and flower from Petal Park.
And this last sample uses the Bright & Beautiful 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper with a sentiment from the Circle Sayings Stamp Set.
