Sweet Little Boxes Valentine
I just love treat packages! From boxes to bags and more! So, I purchased many packages of Stampin' Up!'s Sweet Little Boxes available in the January-June 2022 Mini Catalog. You receive 10 boxes for $10. They are about the same size as the little boxes filled with conversation hearts. And you can decorate them any way you want. Fill them with anything you want -- from chocolate to gift cards. Today, I share four of the boxes I've decorated. Be sure to watch the video at the end of this post. My first box draws on my love of cactus as a rather new Arizona resident. Stampin' Up!'s new Cactus Cuties Bundle makes this really fun. I also used...

Sunshine & Rainbows #simplestamping
Each month, Stampin' Up!' hosts a #simplestamping challenge to demonstrators. Create a handmade greeting card using just rubber stamps, ink, and paper. This month, January 2022, it calls for us to use a SaleABration product and a birthday theme. The challenge demonstrates that, as paper crafters, we can create something handmade that doesn't require a lot of expensive equipment or products. This card design of three equal panels allows you to showcase different pieces of the patterned paper. Just think of all the possibilities with the array of paper available today. I created two cards for this challenge. I chose the 6 x 6 Sunshine &...
