I saw this card at a regional convention and had to try it.  Score across the Scallop Square at matching scallops, a couple of snips and a bit of tape and you have a cute little box.  Then of course we made the mini cards to go inside.  The Diagonal Plate on the Simply Scored made it easy to make the matching envelopes.  Great for a hostess gift.

A few folds in an 8 1/2″ x 11″ sheet of paper and one cut gives you 2 diagonal pockets that can open for an inside greeting too. We embellished a card for the back pocket and put a gift card in the front one.  Add a bit of embellishment and you’re done!

Isn’t he cute?  He’s made with “Punch Art”, punches stacked together.  There’s no stamping.  I used glossy paper (no longer available from Stampin’ Up!) which looks especially great run through the Big Shot in an embossing folder.  If you don’t have glossy paper you could use Shimmery White card stock and you really don’t need to use a Big Shot.

The cookies was decorated with the Simply Pressed stamp.  I dropped the cookies into cellophane bags, added a topper cut with the Top Note Die, added a little stamping and an embellishment of one piece punched from Silver Glimmer Paper and one punched from matching card stock.  Done!

When I brought some to a bake sale they all sold quickly and everyone told me how wonderful they looked.

I couldn’t wait to try this.  I bought a flat porcelain ornament from my local hobby store.  Then I stamped and embosses with Wild Wasabi and Pewter.  It made wonderful gifts!  I kept one for our tree.  Love it!
