Good Morning! Another Thursday is upon us, so that means today is Lindsay’s Stamp Stuff Day!  If you’re looking for the Tiffany Doodles blog hop – click here or scroll down. For this week, Lindsay challenged us to use the theme Sweet Treats – here’s what I came up with: I used one of Lindsay’s Halloween Favors cutting templates and Make The Cut (MTC) software that I purchased through Designing with DieCuts (and let me tell you I LOVE this new version – WOW – what a powerful and easy to use tool) with my Cricut to make the holder. I decorated it with “tinsel” – a really fabulous ribbon from my stash – but I thought it needed something else.  I looked all over for my tiny Christmas ornaments and couldn’t find them  then I remember I had the Santa’s Toyland Tags set from SVGCuts.com so I used MTC and my Cricut to cut out the bottom layer of the Stocking (I welded a circle over the tag hole so that it was one continuous layer) and cut from red DP.  I embossed the stocking with my Argyle Cuttlebug folder and then added the “fur” top with my Quickie Glue pen and white Stampin’/Fun Flock.  The test tube is food grade and filled with mini M&M’s – this was my test run and I think it’s cute and easy – now I need to make 10 more for the teachers/staff at Nadya’s preschool!

Recipe:

• Cutting Files: Lindsay’s Stamp Stuff Halloween Favors and SVGCuts.com Santa’s Toyland Tags
• Paper: DCWV Holiday stack from my stash
• Other: Scor-Tape; Elmer’s Glue Dots; Sakura Quickie Glue Pen; Stampin’ Flock; Ribbon; Food-Grade Test Tube
• Tools: Make The Cut; Cricut; Scor-It

Also, if I could ask a favor – stop by our dear DT Micki’s blog and leave her some love – as there’s been a death in her family.  We you Micki!

Have a fabulous day! Wish us a little luck too – tonight is the Christmas Program at Preschool and Nadya’s 1st time on stage – I’m not sure how she’s going to react since I was incredibly shy at that age.

How’s that for a catchy title? For today’s Lindsay’s Stamp Stuff project, I opted to go 3D!  I created this cute Halloween treat container using Lindsay’s Milk Carton template set – I used Sure Cuts A Lot and the SVG file, but Lindsay has included a printable template as well for those that prefer that option. I left one end of the carton unglued so that I could easily fill it with treats. The cute spider is from my Paper Doll Dress Up cartridge embellished with silver Smooch and black Stickles. I added a double ribbon layer and viola – a super cute and easy gift container!
