Hello Again.....

Funny how time flies and you forget you started a blog.   My blogging efforts went by the wayside for quite some time (okay, a really long time) but I am inspired to start afresh.  So here I am with a little paper crafting photo.  I've decided to dig into my stash of Stampin Up! designer paper and start using it up!  I can't believe how long I have had this dsp (I'm thinking about 9 years).  With SU!'s Envelope Punch Board and the Mini Treat Bag Thinlet, I think I can make a dent in it. 



All supplies are Stampin Up for the exception of the grosgrain ivory ribbon.  Paper:  Spring Flowers DSP (retired), So Saffron, Sahara Sand, Pear Pizzazz & Whisper White
Tools:  Mixed Bunch punch, Leaf/bird punch combo, Mini Treat Bag Thinlet, Envelope Punch Board.


Have a great day!

    1. Linda--It's been so long since I made this that I can't remember exactly how I came about it. What I probably did is this: measured out the treat bag (allowing a bit of wiggle room for the ribbon on the insert--mine was about 4 x 5 1/2) and then took Stampin UP!'s envelope punch board, looked at the measurement options. I probably went with 4 1/2 x 6 (to allow the mini treat bag not to be so tight in it). Would need a piece of designer series paper cut to 8 1/2 x 8 1/2. Simply follow the instructions on the board on where to score and punch using the guide on the board. Hope that helps!
