Lolly Embellishment – Gently Falling 9-10-11

Lolly Embellishment – Gently Falling 9-10-11

I’m not sure what you call the accordion folded embellishments…. lolly, medallion, rosette?  There may be more names for them, but I called them addicting!  Stampin’ Up! sells a die for these now, The Designer Rosette Bigz XL die, $42.95  #125594.  I don’t have the die, so I make them fairly easily with the Simply Scored Tool.  A tip:Score a full sheet of Designer Series Paper then slice it into strips 1″ wide or more.  I used the Simply Scored tool to add a border to the card base too.  I combined the lolly on this card with a large button.  I sponged a little Shimmer Paint on the inked stamp to add some sparkle.

I received a similar cake as a swap at the Stampin’ Up! convention in Salt Lake City.  Can you believe I still have it?  I mean, I’m finally posting this project over 2 years ago!  Thank you Kathi Boresh from Ohio!

Then one of the speakers showed the stand.  Of course they had to go together!

We made these for the workshop right after the new catalogs came out.  You can put treats or small gifts in these bags, but we made tags to put in the new catalogs.  I love the Fabulous Florets stamp set!
