Stamp Review Crew: 2021 Sale-a-bration Bonus Hop #2

 

The Stamp Review Crew has a second bonus hop featuring Sale-a-bration goodies.  In case you missed the first one you can check it out HERE.    The format is a little different for our Sale-a-bration hops. Instead of each member creating with the same stamp set as we usually do we are all using different Sale-a-bration products.   As always though we are archiving the hop for future reference.  Please click on the banner below to see past hops and to check out the bios of the crew members. 

 

 

My projects focus on the Punch Party host stamp set.  This one stamp set has sentiments and images for a whole "host" of occasions ;)  I used just a few for these little candy boxes.   Each box holds three Hershey's kisses.  The small flower and heart stamps are just the right size to decorate the upside-down chocolates.

 


The Oh So Ombre paper is also a Sale-a-bration item.  I really love the color gradient! 

The Oh So Ombre DSP is 6" X 6" so I tweaked the measurements of a box that I had previously designed to fit with this size paper.  For all the measurements and a video tutorial for making the box scroll to the bottom of the post.

 

The fun purple fluff is made by unraveling some of the Gorgeous Grape Sheer Ribbon. 

Another version using the Love You Always Specialty Paper.  Very elegant!  This one has no insert and holds three chocolate hearts.

 I trimmed the thin binding edge from some Blushing Bride Metallic Ribbon with scissors and used that to tie the tag.  I then unraveled the ribbon to make the fringe on the foil belly-band.


We have a lot of Crew members participating in this special bonus hop so be sure to click on the links below to see them all!
