3D Thursday - Valentine Gift Tube

 

Hello, and Happy Thursday paper crafting peeps! This week teammate Darla Watson from over at Scraps Happen With Darla was at the designer's desk. Darla took and oldie but goodie treat holder and made it new again. This would make for a cute little gift for your kid's classmates or coworkers. Check it out and you will see how.

Darla created a Valentine Gift Tube or what I call a (Sour Cream Treat Holder) using a piece of the Country Gingham 6" x 6" DSP (160388). She also used the Country Bouquet Stamp Set and Matching Punch and the number for the bundle is (160383). So what twist did she put on it to make it new?

Darla used our piercing mat to punch holes at the ends and took a needle and twine to stitch the ends together. It adds such a super cute finishing touch to the project.

She filled it with Valentine M&M's before stitching the other end shut.

Here's how she decorated it up with all the fun little heart shapes and sequins. If you would like to recreate this project just click on the link below to print of the FREE PDF.

Paper Carrots

Hi there!  Today I wanted to share a quick and easy project for Easter.

Easy Paper Carrots made following a Sour Cream Container Tutorial.  I used our retired Designer Series Paper that I really miss!  I cut my pieces at 4" x 6", so I could get 6 from a 12" x 12" piece of DSP.  The tops are a 2" x 3" piece of green cardstock.  I used our retired Fringe Scissors to cut, then used a bone folder to curl a bit.  Rolled it up and attached to the top of the carrot.  Stamped saying and punched it out with the 1 3/4" CIrcle punch and attached it to the top.  The carrots with light green tops have chocolate candy in them.  The dark green tops have non chocolate candy in them.  These were a huge seller for me at my craft fairs before Easter this year.  Go whip you up some for your table place settings.  Thanks for looking. 

Have a crafty day!
