Your Next Stamp January Design Team Dare (Cute Foodies Treat Toppers)

Welcome to the first Your Next Stamp DT dare challenge of the year. Each month the design team is given a special challenge to show off the new stamps and dies released each month. For the month of January our challenge is called......SOMETHING OLD, SOMETHING NEW!

I think the challenge is obvious. That means it's time to dig down deep in the crafty stash and find something to work with. Challenge is ACCEPTED!

For this fun challenge my something old focused around a pad of MME paper that I've had in my stash for years! I also grab one of my slightly older Treat Topper die (back from our May 2015 release).

My somethings new is of course my new release Cute Foodies stamp, the scallop and oval from the Mini Pillow box die and new American Craft twine I received for Christmas.

Here are a couple of Valentine treats that I made with my old and new supplies!

Your Next Stamp January Release Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Your Next Stamp January new release blog hop.

This month we are featuring a variety of stamps and amazing dies that you will fall in LOVE with! If you are like me and are gearing up for Valentine's day, this is the release for you. In addition to cards, I am getting ready to make a few Valentine's for my kids to hand out to their classmate.

My first project I made a simple card featuring the PUPPY LOVE stamp, I used the large heard for my background stamping using Worn Lipstick distress ink. The Little hearts are from the So Stinkin' Cute set and stamped with Memento Angel Pink.

I used the Stitched Square die to cut out the image of my puppy.

Here is a look at the inside of my card.

My next project will be the perfect little Valentine's gift for my girls to give away to their classmates. I used the CUTE FOODIES and the LITTLE SHOPPING BAG die set to create these tiny bags that you can fill with treats or other fun gifts.

The little bag measures about 3.25 inches high, 2.5 wide and 1 inch deep.
