Treats (and no tricks!)

Treats (and no tricks!) published on 7 Comments on Treats (and no tricks!)

This week at SUO Challenges – SUOC30 we want to see how you create your treats!  Show us the packaging, the cards with surprises or anything else that includes a treat!  We can’t wait to see all the creative things you make!

One of the things that first drew me to Stampin’ Up was the ease with which you could make cute things.  Everything matches, products are meant to go together and it simply works!  That is how I feel about the new 1″x8″ Cellophane Bags from the Holiday Mini.  They are meant to make your life easier…and they succeed!  They are the perfect size for pencils, small candies and Pixy Stix!  I chose the Pixy Stix option since these can be so messy when given out individually.  Using the pumpkin from Button Buddies (another item meant to make cute, fast projects) I stamped two different versions.  I used a Basic Black base for the boys and a Rich Razzleberry base for the girls.  The nice Pixy Stix people are kind enough to make candy in Pumpkin Pie and Rich Razzleberry to coordinate!!!

I am one of the room moms for my youngest son’s class and these will be for their class party.  I know that many of you, like me, have a hard time spending hours on things that will be destroyed in a matter of seconds by little ones.  Well, these were done in a flash and are still cute enough to feel like a special treat!  Once I sealed the Pixy Stix in the bags with the self-sealing strip, I attached the bag to the back of the Scallop Circle with a little bit of Sticky Strip.  Cross one project off of the to-do list!!

I was a little late on one of my Creative Crew projects so this is my fourth for the month of October – Holiday Focus (create a holiday decoration or gift).

I hope that you have fun with this challenge.  Make sure you go check out the fabulous ideas from the rest of the design team!  There are lots of time-saving (and spectacular) projects!   See you again tomorrow with the next card for Freshly Made Sketches!
