This die can make 3 different sized treat bag toppers. I used the biggest size to make my treat bag and kept it real simple.

Santa Emma

The other day while digging through one of my drawers, I found this CC Designs stamp that I forgot I had, and of course never got to use it. This one is Santa Emma and she's a cutie. I had an extra stool colored from my last card so I got to use it with this one.The background I used is another Tim Holtz embossing folder called holiday words. It is in the set with the calendar folder. I used his distress ink called shabby shutters over parts of the embossed words and highlighted parts of the edges of the card with stardust stickles.
The pretty rose on the ribbon was given to me from Joy and I'm not sure what company it is from.
Thanks for stopping by today and don't forget to come back this Thursday for the last Sizzix triple play blog hop project!
Have a great Tuesday!!!

If you click on the Sizzix navigation bar on the right side of my blog, it will take you to the next designer's blog.

The candy cane is cut out of Sizzix chipboard and I went with a green and white candy cane. I used chunky white glitter on the white parts of the candy cane. The flower is from the flowers 3-D die.
I used a Hero Arts stamp and embossed the words with white embossing powder on the inside of the card.

December

Wow, it's been awhile since I actually used my copics to color a CC Designs image. Here I used Cookie Emma sitting on her stool eating her chocolate chip cookie which is one of my favorite cookies.
The embossing folder is called December calendar by Tim Holtz. I really need to start working on my Christmas cards and do some Christmas shopping.
The snowflake is from this year's snowflake #3 die. I used MS silver glitter on the snowflake. This was a leftover snowflake from one of the make & takes Cheri and I did at Ben Franklin Crafts.
Hey, don't forget to come back on Thursday for the Sizzix triple play blog hop. We are on week #6 and next week will be our last week.
Thanks for stopping by today and hope you're all having a wonderful day!!!

Sizzix Triple Play Blog Hop Week 5 - Gingerbread Man Giftcard Holder

Hello and welcome back to week 5 of the Sizzix triple play blog hop. Please click on the navigation bar on the right side of my blog to get to the next designer. You can hop either forward or backward. For this week's project, we are using Karen Burniston's gift card holder, 3-D pop-up die. I have actually made quite a few gift card holders with this die prior to this week's project.
To decorate the front of my card, I used all Hero Arts stamps. For the gingerbread man, I embossed him with white embossing powder and cut around the stamped image and stuck pearl gemstones for his eyes. The stamp is from a set called Christmas trio.
On the green card background, I used a stamp called happy festive background. And the word is from a stamp set called magic of Christmas.
When you open the card, the gift card holder pops up with the phrase "for you". There are many different themes that you can make with this die. I went with a Christmas theme only because this month is Christmas.
Sorry that the photos are kind of bright but taking photos today was a little challenging due to the rainy weather we were having and I tried my best to make it brighter. Hope it's not blinding you.
Supplies:
656740 - Gift card holder, 3-D pop-up
Hero Arts stamps - LP177 Christmas trio, S5446 Happy festive background, CL462 Magic of Christmas
Pearl gemstones
White embossing powder
Offray red ribbon
Thanks for stopping by and visiting today and don't forget to come back next week Thursday for another Sizzix project! Have a great day!!!
