2016-easy-christmas-gift-ideas1-a

Today's project is an easy Stampin' Up! gift idea for Christmas 2016!

With the Christmas holiday coming, our thoughts turn to giving of ourselves and gifts from the heart.  Here's a little cookie box that is just the right size for giving some cookies, candies, or even a pair of warm gloves or cute socks.  Your friends, co-workers, friends, neighbors, etc. would love receiving a little something in a cute box like this, wouldn't you? 

Let's take a look at the video tutorial below and get started now! Share the love and the spirit of the season!

Here's the shopping list for today's project.  Host Code: 3ANZEQUZ

Product List

2016-easy-christmas-gift-ideas1-bBelow is the template to help you re-create the project:

2016-easy-christmas-gift-ideas1-cLisa's Inklings:

  • Start with a 12 x 12 piece of card stock.
  • Score on one side at 3" and 9".
  • Turn and score at 1", 3 1/2", 6 1/2", and 9".
  • Cut as shown in video.
  • Designer Paper dimensions-  One piece at 2 1/4 x 5 3/4, two pieces at 2 3/4 x 5 3/4, two pieces cut 2 1/4 x 2 3/4.

Here's a super easy recipe for Pumpkin Spice Muffins that you could give as a gift with this box!

Pumpkin Spice Muffins

Two Ingredients:

One box of Spice Cake Mix

One 15-16 oz can of pumpkin.  (Not pie filling.)

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. Prepare muffin tin (12 medium) with cupcake/muffin liners.
  3. Pour cake mix into a large bowl.
  4. Add can of pumpkin to cake mix. Optional: add chopped walnuts.
  5. Mix well.  Should be about the consistency of cake batter.  I used my mixer!
  6. Pour into muffin pan 1/2 to 2/3 full.
  7. Bake for 18-20 minutes.  Toothpick test to check!

These are delicious and were a hit at Lyla's birthday party!  We added store bought cream cheese icing for fun!

Tuesday Tip - Coloring with Blender Pens

Image

Happy Tuesday and welcome to this week's tip on coloring with Blender Pens.

This video is in response to a question that I received from a customer regarding using the ink from our Stampin' Up! Classic Ink Pads to color an image. 

Watch the video below to see the method that's given me the best results. 

Coloring with blender pens on watercolor paper is easy and fun! The Basket of Wishes set has several images for appropriate for different occasions along with coordinating sentiments.
