Isn’t Stampin’ Up!’s Sweetest Cherries just the cutest? The stamp set and punch combo make it an affordable purchase, as well as easy and versatile to use. Purchase them as a bundle and save 10 percent. Find them on page 19 of Stampin’ Up!’s 2022-2023 Annual Catalog.
Today, I paired the bundle with Stampin’ Up!’s Peekaboo Treat Bags. Find these on page 140 of Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog. You receive 10 treat bags (five craft and five white) for $6.00. There are so many ways to dress these up. I’m just showing you one option. I added pieces of Designer Series Paper (pieces of Old Olive from the Regals 6 x 6 Paper Assortments). But you could stamp on them and add tags and die cuts.
I can see them work for special occasions such as Thanksgiving and Christmas. But they would also work well as gift card holders and most especially sweet treats. I found a variety of fun, cherry flavored candies to put in these after decorating.
Be sure to watch the video to learn a fun technique using clear embossing powder. This technique gives the cherry a lifelike shine.

There’s a lot to love about the Kits Collection by Stampin’ Up!. Not only do the kits deliver a quick and easy all-inclusive project in a box, you have a stamp set and ink spot to help you create other projects. (Remember: now through June 30, the kits in the collection are on sale. Buy one, get one at half off. Click here to see the selection and shop.)
I have ordered several of the kits and decided to try out the Kindness Cards Kit. It contains the ingredients to create eight coaster cards—plus a cute travel-sized tin to hold it all. Each card is a story of kindness you can create and share. I plan to bring these cards with me on my upcoming trip to Colorado and Nebraska to visit team members.
But I’m also excited to show you the alternate above created with one of the stamps from the set. Using the Design a Daydream 12 x 12 Designer Series Paper, this pocket card is perfect for gift cards, small treats, and notes. Earn this as a hostess reward. It’s featured on page 170 of Stampin’ Up!’s 2022-2023 Annual Catalog.
Be sure watch this Facebook Live replay to see how I created this alternate pocket card.

Although I’m just getting started playing with this bundle, I’m happy with this cute birthday card and coordinating treat packet. I selected the new 2022-2024 In Colors: Sweet Sorbet, Tahitian Tide, and Parakeet Party. (Starry Sky and Orchid Oasis round out this year’s new In Colors.)
I love that Stampin’ Up! offers a bunch of coordinating products to make creating easy and fun. Here are a few of the products I used to make the handmade card:
2022-2024 In Color cad stock
6 x 6 2022-2024 In Color Designer Series Paper Assortments
2022-2024 In Color 6 x 6 Glimmer Paper
Baker’s Twine Pack
Tahitian Tide ink
Stitched Rectangles Dies
Blending Brush
And, I had to include a cute treat packet made with some of the same supplies. Isn’t this super cute? I searched the grocery stores to find cherry flavored foods. The Mini Pocket Envelopes Dies make creating these a snap. Use a 5 1/2″ x 4 1/4″ inch piece of patterned party and cut with the die in the Stampini’ Cut & Emboss. Fold, apply some tear and tape, and it’s ready to decorate. These little holders are perfect for treats and gift cards. See this blog post for other examples using this die.

Welcome to Team Stamp It’s May Blog Hop. We’re so glad you joined us! This month, we feature Father’s Day cards and projects. Be sure to visit all of the blogs on the hop and leave a comment with the hashtag #stampitcontest. You could win the Brewed for You Bundle. See the list of participants at the end of this post.
Your Biggest Fan Father’s Day
I’m going to miss the Hey Sports Fan Suite from Stampin’ Up!’s January-June 2022 Mini Catalog. It officially retires June 30, but elements of the suite will only be available while supplies last. (Hint: So, if you like any of the components, get them before they’re gone.) The Designer Series Paper sports some fantastic designs. I’ve ordered an extra package to have on hand for those masculine greetings cards.
In addition to the baseball-themed products in this suite collection, I used a brand-new item from Stampin’ Up!’s 2022-2023 Annual Catalog. I love the Mini Pocket Envelope Dies to create a quick and easy gift card holder. Use it separately, or attach it to a card front like I did for this card. (See this post for additional samples using the Mini Pocket Envelope Die.)
All of the elements from the suite work together to make card making easy! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today. I hope you’re inspired to make your own creations with the Hey Sports Fan Suite and the Mini Envelope Pocket Dies.
Look for more Father’s Day inspiration from the other talented stampers participating in the blog hop. Visit them all and leave a comment for a chance to win the Brewed for You Bundle.
I’m so excited to offer my first “class to go.” I offer four different kit options that include eight cards (two each of four designs) as well as a tutorial. Click here for more information and to order.
