Today’s card does just that and features the gorgeous Marbled Elegance Specialty Designer Series Paper. In addition, the Hearts of Elegance Bundle is used for the hearts and sentiment.

November is here and it’s not too early to start thinking of Christmas cards. Last month’s card class theme, All About Christmas, celebrated the upcoming season. One of the cards from the class is a beautiful fun fold card featuring the Sentimental Wishes Bundle. Not only does this card feature the bundle but it also highlights the gorgeous Sentimental Christmas Designer Series Paper (DSP). See the stocking and bow on the card front, it’s die cut from the DSP. I am giving you fair warning – you’ll be cutting lots of pieces for layering! But it’s the multiple layers that make this fun fold even more special. So, my suggestion is to cut multiples of the layering panels for several cards at once. If your time is limited, you’ll have everything prepped to assemble at your leisure.
You’ll find an assembly video and the cutting dimensions below the card’s photo.

It’s that time of year to prepare for Halloween! In today’s post, I have two Halloween treat holders tutorials for you. Both use the Online Exclusive Potion & Spells bundle. The Halloween Spells Designer Series Paper is a new release and can be found in the Patterned Paper section in the Online Store.
The Toil and Trouble small Kit Kat treat holder is very quick to assemble. The treat holder is not just for small Kit Kit bars but will also hold a variety of small candy bars. The Cauldron treat holder does take a little bit more time to create. However, it’s size allows you to add a small cellophane bag filled with treats. The tutorial links for both of these Halloween treat holders can be found below the project photos.
Note: The Potions & Spells Bundle is currently unavailable but will be back in stock the week of October 14.
Have fun creating these two Halloween treat holders for friends, family, and of course, the ghosts & goblins that will be visiting on October 31!
