Fall Treats

Pin It

Show your love by giving someone a little fall treat! Here are a couple more treat ideas for you.
I love putting treats in a fun folded piece of DSP. We've got to come up with a good name for those. Maybe there is one and I just don't know. What do you call those things?

Thanks Candy Bar wrapper

Pin It
We need to take a little break from Christmas for a bit and do a little Thanksgiving stamping. This is as simple as they come.  Wrap your candy bar with some DSP, glue on a few leaves and add a thank you.

Vintage Tree ormaments

Pin It

We do love the vintage look over here. These were so easy to make too. Cut triangles with that thick chipboard that comes in your glitter paper and other specialty paper, then glue your DSP on top. Add a little piece of glitter paper for a stump and embellish.

Pretty Pine

Pin It
This tree is simpler than it looks. On the back is a 1/2 inch strip of brown that some of the pieces, then the rest are placed on top of those with glue dots. We put our tree on a little framed burlap bulletin boards and secured it with straight pins.

Christmas Tree bags

Pin It
A lot of washi tape love here. Such a fun and easy technique. How long your words are, determine where you place it on the tree. Just use a paperclip to the top to hold it closed after you fold it down a bit.

Vintage Rosettes

Pin It
Need a little vintage flair on your tree this year? Try these out. You will need 2, 12" x 2" strips of DSP for each Rosette. But first score your 12 x 12 DSP every 1/2".  You can score two sheets at a time to speed things up. Now cut your DSP in 2" strips.  Adhere two pieces together to form a circle. push down flat and use a hot glue gun to hold it together in the center. Add your embellishments and you are good to go. Don't forget to add your glitter to the edges.

Three Trees

Pin It
Look how fun these accordion folded trees are. Make sure you score your DSP first at 1/2". You can score both sheets at once. Then just mark your sheets and cut.  You can get several trees out of one sheet.
*added 11/15  We forgot to give you a little more info that can be quite helpful...Before you score the small and medium tree page, cut the bottom 4 inch section off with the two small trees on it because it needs to be scored the other direction:) sorry, hope you didn't already try that.  Also, when you punch the holes through the center,  START AT THE TOP, you can punch through a few folds at a time too. Have fun!

Mr. Funny Bones!

Pin It
This is the last Halloween post, I've got to move on to Christmas, so I packed a bunch in.  This little stamp set was a little intimidating to me, but once I got started it was pretty fun, especially the ones with movement. And yes, I did cut all those pieces out by hand, sometimes it's just worth it! Check out the video showing the movement of two of the cards.
