Welcome to our Creative Cardiology Team November 2023 Blog Hop! This month our theme is "Giftable" items; paper crafted treats that can be gifted.
I used the Mini Pocket Envelope Dies to create these fun treat holders. They are perfectly sized to fit a Ghirardelli chocolate, as well as a gift card or some money. These treats are quick and easy to make and would be great to stick a couple in your purse when traveling to leave tips in.
To create the treat holder you just need a piece of 4 1/4" x 5" double sided Designer Series Paper; die cut with the Mini Pocket Envelope Dies, place adhesive on the tabs, and fold together on the score lines.
I used the Delightful Floral DSP for this treat holder and decorated the front with a bouquet I fussy cut from the paper itself. The stitched oval label die is included in the Mini Pocket Envelope Dies set.
I used the Bear Punch and coordinating Beary Cute DSP for the second treat holder to show the different looks that can be achieved just by using a different pattern of paper. I folded the top flap closed and tied the treat with some Balmy Blue Sparkle Ribbon.

What's your favorite hand-made giftable?
I seriously have way too many cards! If you need ready made cards for any occasion and love the originality of a card hand stamped with love please contact me.
I saw the cutest little gift idea on Pinterest awhile back and decided to make up a bunch to sell at the craft shows I went to this month and give to my November Stampin' Up! Workshop hostesses.
The original idea came from Rochelle W and she has a nice little tutorial here: http://impressionsbyrochelle.blogspot.com/2007/12/snowman-kisses.html
Inside the front flap is a poem that reads:
He’s cute, Cuddly,
& full of good wishes.
He wants to give you
These snowman kisses!
They were pretty easy to make - you just need is a pack of Tic Tacs, a paper cutter, a 1" circle punch, ribbon, and a pair of paper snips. I love the Googlie Eyes from Stampin' Up! since they already have the adhesive on them so I used those for the snowman's eyes. The ribbon is from the Ice Cream Parlor Ribbon & Button Pack that's a steal on the SU! Clearance Rack for just $3.99 There's even a Simply Scrappin' Kit to match!

I made this cute little Apple Preserves Hershey Nugget Jar for my workshop hostess Stacey. We played with many of the new products in the Holiday Mini catalog at her workshop including the Perfectly Preserved stamp set & Cannery Framelits Bundle, and Orchard Harvest designer paper. Stacey and her friends love 3-D objects, and they keep me on my toes coming up with new treasures to teach them how to make!
