Treatsies!!

Is that a word?  These are the treatsies we are giving out for Valentines' day this Saturday.

 While you may be thinking that is great but I can't get all the stuff and make those cute things by Saturday but I would like for you to think BIG!  You can do this for Thank you's, Birthday's, team way to go's or thinking of you treats.  If you work in an office these would be great for secretaries day or for your child's teacher.  The possibilities are endless*!  I am going to show you how quick and easy they are to make.  I made 40 of them in under 2 hours.  First, from my stampin' up website you will need these cellophane bags, then this punch and finally this punch.  It is always my goal to make a video but until then here are the directions in pictures.  First, fill your bags with M&M's.

pray that the bag you buy has not been smashed a lot so your m&m's aren't broken

then you seal the bag at the top with the built in adhesive strip.  Then punch all the hearts you need out of Cherry Cobbler cardstock from Stampin' Up.  I used this stamp set called A Round Array

I really love how it has a whole lot of sentiments and pretties.  One of the most wonderful parts of Stampin' Up is how the products work together.  The 7/8 scallop punch fits right over these stamp impressions and cuts them out easily!!

Finally, quick as a wink, staple your heart over the bag and use one of these to put your stamped image over the staple to cover it up and make it real cute!!

These are really cute and easy to make up and hand out to friends* all about your day!  Who doesn't like a treatsie?!

* coworkers, party guests, baby shower favors, graduation, 4th of July picnic buddies, teammates...

Like Taco Tuesday...

on a Friday!  When you procrastinate updating your blog for a few days you can always post about  Weekly Specials!!  They change every Tuesday morning until the following Monday evening!  Each week they include some digital downloads for all of the computer guru's.  There is usually a stamp set and punch or die for your big shot!  I always see something on my wishlist that is ON Sale for one week only.  Just to give you food for thought...(taco's get it?  was that a stretch?)  I get an additional discount on my weekly deals because I am a Stampin' Up demonstrator!  There are so many perks and I would love to grab a cup of coffee and chit/chat with you!! During the Sale-A-bration you can get another Free Item when you sign up! It just keeps getting better and better and I am always looking for some good friends to stamp a lot with!

Sale-a-Bration Stamps

I have been missing in action because I am hunkered down playing with my Stampin' Up goodies.  With each $50.00 I spend during Sale-a-bration I get something free!!  I have been playing with this stamp set called A Happy Thing.  I love how happy and bright the lemon looks, so fresh and pretty!  You can color these in with your Blendabilities to complete the look!  Finally, polish off your project with some Stampin' Up Bling!
