Make It Monday with Petal Palette

Better Life Card Tutorial
One final card to say goodbye to the Annual Catalog before we start the new one with a new Stampin' Up! year.  Petal Palette Stamp Set has been a favorite and go-to for many stampers since it came out, but it is retiring today.  There are coordinating dies for this stamp set as well called Petals and More Thinlit Dies, but I didn't need to use the dies to make a cute and fun card.  Rich Razzleberry and Blackberry Bliss colors look great on Crumb Cake Cardstock.  It gives a more a antique feel but looks rich with the Rich Razzleberry Velvet Ribbon.

Super Saturday with Treat Time

Sour Cream Treat Tutorial
Too cute to not share!  I've had the pleasure of making some really fun party favors for an event recently, and these sour cream containers are a really fun and easy way to make a container without a die or a punch.  All you need is some good, strong adhesive.  I'll be showing you how to make them on our Tuesday Facebook Live too, so be sure to tune in!

A side note: most of these products will be retiring in just a few days, so be sure to shop soon if you want anything before it's gone.  You also may just find that some of the things you are looking for are on sale too!

Sour Cream Treat Tutorial
Treat Time Stamp Set
Measurements:

Base: Twinkle Twinkle DSP, 6" x 6"
Layer 1: Twinkle Twinkle DSP, 2" x 4"
Layer 2: Whisper White Cardstock, small tag from punch in the Darling Label Punch Box, or use the tag die from the Petite Treat Framelits

Embellishment: Gold Sequin Trim, Gold Library Clip

Instructions:

1.  Stamp "Time To Celebrate" on Layer 2 using Night Of Navy Ink.

2.  Adhere a 5" length of Gold Sequin Trim folded to Layer 1 using Mini Glue Dots.

3.  Adhere Layer 2 to Layer 1 over Sequin Trim using Dimensionals.

4.  Use Gold Library Clip to attach tag to Sour Cream Container once done.

For Sour Cream Container

1.  Apply Tear & Tape along one complete edge of the Base.  Roll the paper into a tube, using the Tear & Tape to adhere it together along the seam.  Should be cylinder, or round tube.

2.  On one end, apply about 2" of Tear & Tape inside the edge of the tube.  Flatten the tube to close that end, completely.

3.  Repeat Step 2 on the other end, but make the folds go the other direction from the other end (perpendicular, or if one end is horizontal, the other end needs to be vertical).  Do not apply adhesive until you fill it with whatever treat you have!  Also, you will use the Library Clip to close it, so it does not require adhesive.
