Last week I made a cute Playful Pals Easter card, so this week I made fun treats to give with it!

Easter Pyramid Pals becreativewithnicole

Are these just too cute or what???!!!  I knew that getting the PLAYFUL PALS bundle was going to be worth it!  The little pyramid treat boxes are perfect for the bunny of course, but the carrot is just so fun I want to make tons of them to give away!

Let's talk about the carrot first.  I used Tangelo Twist for the gorgeous orange color...perfect for a carrot!  I used the wavy stamp included with the Playful Pals set to add the wave pattern.  Gives the carrot a bit of realism, don't you think? BUT what about the fabulous carrot top!  That's where the Cherry on Top Cotton Paper comes in.  It's a thinner paper than the typical cardstock, so it rolls together without bunching.  I cut a 12 x 1 1/4" strip and cut all along the one side with FRINGE SCISSORS.  Then just rolled the paper up and stuffed it through a hole I punched in the top of the carrot.  I didn't even need adhesive, it stayed in place securely!

Inside I added my favorite Easter candy of all time...Cadbury Eggs!

Let's get ready for Halloween!

I don't know about you, but I love little treats and decorations for Halloween.  I am already planning out some party ideas that I thought would be fun to share! I've been busy as you can see!  It all started with the thought of doing a banner and I just kept going and going! Each piece of the banner has different stamps and die cuts from the Howl-o-ween Treat bundle and was way more fun to create than I anticipated!  The panels are each 4" x 6" with the banner end hand cut.  I am actually working on a tutorial to release next week with the instructions for the banner and the treats so you can make your own!  UPDATE: YOU CAN FIND THE TUTORIAL HERE! Now let's check out all the treats.  I wanted a variety so there would be something for everyone's taste. I am well known for my chocolate chip cookies, so a cookie envelope was the first idea to come to mind.  They are 3 1/2" x 3 1/2" and are just the right size for a cookie!  The envelope punch board mad...

I wanted the sentiment to show through, so the shaker shows through the card front.  To make this happen, I used two stars die cut from window sheet along wit...

Woo Hoo!! Today is Day 6 of Preview Week and it's my turn to give away BLOG CANDY!!  I am super excited to be on the Design Team for the Spring Collection 2015 from Create with Connie and Mary. The new Occasions Catalog and Sale-a-bration Catalog are chock full of great products and we are here to give you great ideas for using them!!  Let me show you my card then I'll tell you more! I'm sure that anyone that follows my blog knows how much I love shaker cards and confetti, so I had to do one for today with a critter!!  The Cheerful Critters set is just so cute I knew it would be great as a shaker. The inspiration came from the December Paper Pumpkin kit that I have made a bunch of cards with.  It was super easy to recreate using the On Film framelits and the Best Year Ever Designer Series Paper.  The bear from Cheerful Critters was stamped and colored with blendabilities then fussy cut and glued to the front of the shaker.  A bunch of stars from the Confe...
