I also colored the dogs and snow globe bases using the Stampin Blends. I adhered to the card front. I then used glitter for the snow.

Hershey nugget wraps using Heart Warming Hugs DSP

 Welcome to my blog. The Hershey nugget packet above is not only a good seller at craft fairs but also makes a nice stocking stuffer. You can make these for any season or event.

Materials:

Directions:

- Cut your DSP into 1x 3 inch strips (good way to use your scraps). Cut a piece of card stock 2 x 4-1/4.

- Wrap around candy. I prefer tear and tape cause it sticks better.

Nuts about Squirrels fun card

 Welcome to my blog. I know I haven’t been consistent lately and apologize for that. I’ve been working on several projects but I find that although I love Stampin Up I also have other companies I like to use. I’m continuing as a Stampin Up demonstrator and you can order product from me. I will do 2 days Stampin Up as primary and the other days using other or combination of companies products. I love making dog cards and Stampin Up doesn’t give me enough variety so incorporate my dog products with Stampin Up products. 

For the above card I used Nuts About Squirrels stamps. This is a 2 step stamp set. I first stamped using Early Espresso then for the second step I used Cinnamon Cider.  I then fuzzy cut out the image.The card base is white cardstock 4-1/4 x 5-1/2. The layering piece is retired DSP 4 x 5-1/4. The ribbon an glitter are from my stash. The sentiment is from the Festive and Bright stamp set.
