Happy December! Welcome to the Glimmer and Glam Girls Blog Hop for November! This months’ theme is Christmas and the Holidays! Yes! It’s that time of year already. Halloween is over and now, the holidays are around the corner. Yikes right?

I have a very cute and duplicate project for you today using our gorgeous gold pizza boxes and the Perfectly Plaid bundle! These are just a few of my favorite things…

Let’s take a look!

Digits and Directions:

1. use one of our gold pizza boxes to decorate. They are the perfect size by the way for a cookie, some chocolates, or 3×3 notecards!
2. Using a piece of whisper white and perfectly plaid scrap paper, cut out each piece at 1×3 and dovetail the edges.
3. Using the Merry Christmas Stamp from the Perfectly Plaid stamp set, stamp the sentiment in Cherry Cobbler
4. Punch out a Cherry Cobbler with the Starburst Circle Punch. Glue to the box with a few Stampin Dimensionals.
5. Using some scrap Whisper White and Shaded Spruce, stamp the tree on each color using Shaded Spruce classic ink.
6. Using the Pine Tree Punch, punch both out and ahere to the circle with Stampin Dimensionals.
7. Glue together the “flags” with snail adhesive. then using some bakers twine, wrap around the edge and tie a cute bow. Adhere with Stampin Dimensionals.
8. Fill with your favorite treats – as these boxes are food safe! Enjoy giving it to your BFF!

I hope you have enjoyed my quick simple and cute project! Now, make sure to continue around our blog hop and be inspired for the holidays!

Hi paper crafters! I know I have been VERY quiet. A lot has been going on in July and the first part of this month. I needed to step back slightly and take care of family and my Inn first.. but I have been stamping behind the scenes when I can. I just have not been blogging. Its hard to do it all – I have a lot on my plate lately. I’m trying though!

So, as you know, I ventured off to Phuket Thailand for the Stampin` Up! Incentive Trip. The only way I can describe this trip: amazing! My good friend Bernice was my travel buddy! We had a lot of fun!

I did things outside of my comfort zone (snorkeling).. and I was touched deeply with the Elephant Sanctuary. I was adventurous on a kayak through the caves on the ocean.. and seen Phi Phil Island. We had lunch on a private island. I used the resort pool! Yes, I actually was in a swim suit – first time in YEARS! I even tried out the pool bar – ordering Shirley Temples and enjoying my new favorite.. coconut water in a coconut! It was just awesome and I cant thank Stampin` Up! enough for giving me this opportunity!

I think pictures say so many words.. AMAZING! So much fun! I made some new stamping friends.. and got to see so many friends I havent seen in a while. Take care, Thailand.. I loved my stay and I hope to someday return! Thank you, my amazing stamping friends, for your loyalty and supporting my business. I love what I do and I love sharing it with YOU!

Ill post more soon!!
