Welcome to the Pals Blog Hop for September. This month we are showing off our favorite new products from the new Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog. We hope you enjoy our projects!
You may just be starting the blog hop or may have come from Kalyn Shubnell at The Stamping Chronicles #7 on the Pals Hop. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all the projects.
Hello and welcome! One thing I think we all can agree on is….this new catalog is OFF THE CHARTS! Page after page is filled with fun new stamp sets, amazing kits, gorgeous papers and TONS OF BUNDLES!
I thank Stampin' Up! for continuing to offer more and more Bundles and today I am going to share with you a bundle that I simple adore! It is A Little Something Bundle! Why do I love this so much?
Easy…it creates fun, simple & useful "pillow boxes" that can be filled with so many things ~ from candy, to 3 X 3 cards, to gift certificates….jewelry – the sky is the limit.
In the pictures below you will see that I have tried to inspire you with many different ways to use these products. I adore making 3 X 3 cards….I think that is something that we forget about making. They not only are super handy to have but they also make wonderful gifts!
When you make a pillow box, it uses just one sheet of paper per box. I trim it to 5 1/2" X 6" and still have some scraps for other projects.
Being able to add bling with an embossing folders makes it so much fun! I really like using the tone on tone effect with the fantastic stamps that are in this stamp set – FUN!
No who does not like M & M's? I like using the themed colors that are available now…just have fun thinking out of the box when using this framelit.
The cotton ribbon makes such beautiful bows…ties like a dream and the little touch of Bakers Twine adds interest.
This tear tape is amazing to use for project like this! Not only is it super strong it is so easy to use. Love the fact that you can tear it…..no more red tape sticking to you! I say – WOOT-WOOT!
'
Ho-Ho-Ho!!! Isn't this a cute ensemble? I love this pom-pom trim and it is just so much fun to play around and create all different goodies! I hope that these examples will inspire you to hit that SHOP NOW button and get going! Make a list of all of the gifts you can make using this fabulous bundle!
Look at the fabulous images below to see how you can tie both if these items together, the stamp set and the framelit to create many amazing works of art!
Many thanks for popping in and I hope that you are enjoying this fun hop! I just love this time of the year as we are always coming up with fun ways to get the holiday spirit rolling.

After seeing these, I think I “need” to put it on my next order! So cute!
I hadn’t seen one with the top cut off…very cute!!!
Adorable little boxes! Love the versatility of your ideas (especially the pompom)! A big “Woot Woot!”
I LOVE this Bundle…. So cute for Halloween, Christmas or even Birthday. I love how you cut the top off to slide in cards. You are right, I don’t think of 3×3 cards very often. So very glad you showed us. Thanks so much for sharing your ideas.
Ho, ho, ho – I love the Santa on the inside of the envelope! That is just too much fun! The card is cute too. Open here definitely on the flap part so they just don’t rip it open at the top. I have a couple stamps from the one set a few years ago for the milk carton die, I think. I liked the stamps and not the carton at that time. Anyway, you showed us some fun ways including the one with the top part open. The embossing is such a fun touch too. With the birch trees EF you could put some chocolate “bark” candy in it! Sorry, couldn’t help myself. Well, gotta hop along now! Great job as always!
FUN! FUN! FUN!
You’ve really done a nice job on your projects. I love them all! Great attention to detail! The best stop on the “Hop”!!
Susan- These boxes are adorable!!!! I love the simplicity of them! Your really know how to make that box shine :> Thanks for all the tips!!!!
I adore this pillow box die. A “keeper” for sure. Great projects Susan. Every detail makes the box sparkle.
Super cute collection of treat holders, Susan! You know what my favorite little bit is? That Santa peeking out from the inside of the little envelope! Haha, he is pretty cute! I like the window on the front of the yellow one too. Great job! And as always, thanks for directions 🙂
I just bought the M & M’s so I can CASE your little boxes, Susan! Fantastic!
