Happy Mardi Gras!  We are experiencing some near record low temperatures today as is most of the USA.  With that being said, our electrical power situation is uncertain so this post will be quick as well as the video.  If you have questions about the project, please let me know.  The measurements are listed below the video.

Since many of us are homebound due to icy roads, I wanted to share an easy project that can be used with a little Ghiradelli chocolate square for any occasion. The Mardi Gras colors are used on this project: purple represents justice, green represents faith, and gold represents power. 

Here's the super quick video!

Lisa's Inklings:

• Gorgeous Grape 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [146987] is cut 6 x 3-1/4.
• Score this piece at 2, 2-12, 4-1/2, and 5 on the long side.
• Turn and score on the short side at 1/2 inch from each side.
• Garden Green 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [102584] is cut 3/4 x 5-1/2 for the belly band.
• You'll need a small piece of Basic White 8 1/2" X 11" Cardstock [159276] for stamping and punching.

This is an easy little treat box and you can make it anytime!  See some of our Mardi Gras family fun from yesterday HERE.

Getting socks for Christmas is not always fun but with this unique gift packaging with a fun technique, the gift will be extra special.

Of course, after watching the video you may think of many other ideas and gifts that would be just as fun in the packaging idea. 

Let's take a look at the video which first aired last Wednesday on my Craft & Chat on Facebook.

Lisa's Inklings:

• Trimming The Town Designer Series Paper [153491] is cut with two pieces at  5-1/2 x 2-1/8 and two pieces at 2-5/8 x 2-1/8.
• Cut coordinating strips of this designer paper with two pieces at 1/2 x 5-1/2 and two pieces at 1/2 x 2-5/8.
• Be sure to watch the video for the technique with the 6" X 8"  Cellophane Bags [102210].
• Ribbon to tie cello packaging is cut at about 8" for each of the four pieces.
• I think it's best to wrap the ribbon around the carrier and partially tying the bow before cutting.  Better to have too much than too little and everyone ties bows differently.

Do you know someone who will enjoy receiving a gift in this packaging? Here's what you'll need.

- Cut another piece of the same print to 3-1/4 x 8-1/2.  Score at 2" and 6-1/2".
- You will need another small piece of Magic In This Night Designer Series Paper [153517] and Whisper White 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock [100730] for punching.

Here are two 2020 Stampin' Up! Christmas projects from last week's Craft and Chat on Facebook...a card and gift box with the beautiful For Unto Us Cling Stamp Set [153335].

This stamp set is one that might be overlooked since there are no images.  These beautiful fonts and sentiments are wonderful for Christmas cards and gift packages.  As you can see above and below, the sentiments really stand out when paired with awesome paper, don't you think?

Let's take a look at the edited recording of the LIVE.  If you're not following me on Facebook, click on over and do it right now!  Craft and Chat is on Wednesday mornings at 10 am Central.  For the next two weeks, you will see a pre-recorded video with some awesome project that you don't want to miss!

It's Week 9 of my 2020 Stampin' Up! Halloween Projects and this time we are continuing this cute cup project.  (In case you missed the projects and video from earlier, you can see it here!)

In this video, you will see me cover the entire cup with some beautiful designer paper to make a fun Halloween treat holder.   Fill with candy, a gift card, or maybe even a little pair of socks!

Here's the video how-to so that you can make your own.

Lisa's Inkings:

• In the video, I recommended a 6 x 12 piece of Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper [153520].  To be safe, I would go at least 8 x 12.
• Save your template. You know you'll want to make a holiday version!
• Be sure to use your Bone Folder [102300] to curve your paper pieces before adhering them.
• Tear & Tape Adhesive [138995] worked best for this project.

Today's project and video tutorial is a DIY gift idea using the Warm Hugs Bundle (English) [155145] from Stampin' Up!  The video is a recording of a recent Facebook Live  and you'll see how my mindset went from shying away from this bundle to "I gotta have it!"

The coffee/latte theme is very popular but try not to box yourself into just that idea.  These cups and sentiments can be used for packaging lots of different mini gifts!

Let's take a look at the video and you'll see!

Lisa's Inklings:

• Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper [153520] is cut  at least 4 x 6 to die cut.
• Mint Macaron Cardstock [138337]  is cut 4-1/4 x 5-1/2 to die cut trim.
• You will need a piece of Very Vanilla Cardstock [101650]scrap for sentiment
• Brushed Metallic Cardstock [153524] in copper -Scrap for die cut.

Ready to make your own cute cups for DIY gift giving?  Here are the supplies you'll need.  I would be so grateful for you to place your order with me!
