Recycled Treat Container

These great treat ideas were made using empty Crystal Light containers.  We thought the Artistic Etchings set and the Love Letter DSP provided the perfect images and color combination for an expression of "amour".

And, the container is a nice size to include plenty of chocolate for the ones you love!  The hanging tag idea came from Chiaki Haverstick's (http://www.stampingpro.com/) beautiful card:

Magnetic Owl Card

This was one of the swaps we made at Convention, designed by our wonderful friend Kevin!  At first glance, it looks just like any other card; however, the oval piece with the owl is backed with our magnet sheets, so it can be used on the refrigerator.  Doesn't that make a handmade card even more special?!  The layered ovals were cut using the Sizzix oval die.  You can also see that the background was embossed using the Vintage Wallpaper embossing folder.  The branch is from the bird punch and the sentiment is from the Word Play stamp set.  The card is finished off with some Early Espresso 1/8" taffeta ribbon.
