Creation Station Blog Hop - Tweets & Treats

  Hello and welcome

My name is Vicki Boucher, and I am from Melbourne, Australia. This is the latest hop with the design team at Creation Station, if you have come from Martin Stone or you may have started with me. Please make sure you hop around and see everyone's amazing projects. I'll pop a link at the end of my blog to hop around....

The design team at Creation Station are presenting their projects with the theme "Tweets or Treats" anything 3D.

Today's project I've created two Christmas gift packages using the Peekaboo Treat Bags (159252) and other Stampin' Up! products which are located in either the Annual Stampin' Up 2022 - 2023 Catalogue and the Mini July - Dec 2022 Catalogue. I love the treat bags they come in Kraft and White and they are food safe. I've placed a couple of gingerbread biscuits inside them for show. 

Noel Kraft Peekaboo Treat Bag

For my first treat bag I've used the natural Kraft package, using the cluster of stars stamp which is from Spruced Up Stamp Set and stamped it in Crumb Cake ink. I added different types of ribbon and baker's twine for a natural look. 

My go to at the moment is the Celebration Tag Dies which I just love so much! The cute gift tag is die-cut out in Kraft Paper, then I added Soft Suede ink with a Blending Brush and I used the Celebrate with Tags Stamp Set for the To: and From: in Soft Suede ink. The stitched heart & snowflake are die-cut out using Very Vanilla Cardstock and sponged using Crumb Cake ink.

The cute natural wood elements are from the Santa Express Memories & More card pack (159595) there are a variety of different words for Christmas and other occasions, plus stars as well. I use the Fine Tip Glue Pen for these elements.

Made with Love White Peekaboo Treat Bag

Next is a traditional red and white treat bag, this could be for Christmas or any occasion. I love the sentiment from the Celebrate with Tags Stamp Set, I've heat embossed it by stamping the image in Versamark onto Real Red Cardstock, add White Stampin' Emboss Powder and heat set with the Heat Tool. There is a label die to die-cut out the sentiment and I just used the paper snips scissors to cut out the word "with".

I used the same tag die from the Celebrations Tag Dies, die-cut out three tags one in Real Red Cardstock, Snowflake Specialty Vellum and layered over in Basic White Cardstock. The snow flake is die-cut out the same sheet of  Snowflake Specialty Vellum. The cute winter gloves are stamped in Real Red ink onto Basic White Cardstock and die-cut out. To finish off the tag I added White Glittered Organdy Ribbon and White Baker's Twine.

To add some love to the white treat bag, I used the cluster of hearts stamp and stamped the image in Real Red ink. Plus two stitched Real Red hearts.
