Good Things Come In Small Packages

 


I decided to use my December 2022 Paper Pumpkin kit called Good Things Come In Small Packages for some Valentine's Day treats. I assembled all 16 boxes for my Bible study group and used some twine to tie around plus stamped the heart and sentiment from a previous Paper Pumpkin kit I think from last year but not sure. I used different inks like Sweet Sorbet, Blushing Bride and Soft Succulent. I filled them with Dove chocolate hearts in milk and dark chocolate. I gave them out yesterday in group and they were a big hit! 
Hope you have a blessed day and thanks for stopping by!

Precious Pearl For The Pals Blog Hop

 


Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop!

This month, our blog hop theme made projects to celebrate Random Acts of Kindness Week, which is February 14-20! We hope you will be inspired by all the beautiful creations the Pals made for you! As you hop from blog to blog, we would love for you to leave a comment. You will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.



My favorite suite in the new SU! 2023 spring mini is the By The Bay suite. I pulled out one of my fav pieces of the gorgeous DSP with iridescent shells for the background and added it a piece of Petal Pink card stock and a Starry Sky base. I did take a piece of the white frayed ribbon and added some Pool Party ink with my blending brush before wrapping it around.
 I cut a white stitched circle from the Stylish Shapes dies to stamp my shell from the Seaside Bay set in Starry Sky ink. I used my Pool Party and Petal Pink Stampin Blends markers to add some more color. I place a flat pearl inside the shell. I cut a white banner from the Fragrant Flowers dies and used just one end for my sentiment also from the Seaside Bay set stamped in Starry Sky ink. Love how it turned out and excited to be giving it to a friend that has helped me lately. 



More inspiration awaits, so use the lineup below to visit the rest of the Design Team. The Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created! Then, please mark your calendars for our next blog hop on March 8th, when our theme will be Party Time, showcasing cards/projects that celebrate our family and friends.

Until then, have fun in your craft space.
