Poinsettia Place Setting Treat Box - My Creative Time 5 Days Of Christmas

It's the last day of The 5 Day of Christmas from My Creative Time!
It's been an awesome week of fun projects, thanks so much for your wonderful comments, MCT fans are one of the best!!

Don't forget about the daily AWESOME prizes so don't forget to stop by MCT's Blog for the details on how to win!

For my project today I made a place setting treat box.


I used the Stripy Background II stamp on some red cardstock with Ranger Liquid Platinum Embossing Powder to for the sour cream container, (I cut mine the size of the background stamp).  For the Poinsettia I used the leaves from the Boughs of Holly, stamped with Ranger Cherry ink, cut them out on my Brother ScanNCut2 and colored in with a copic marker.  The center is from the Stitched Pretty Flowers cutout on Tim Holtz Deco Sheets.  For the name tag I used the Teeny Tags Layering Die and wrote the name with a Uni-Ball Signo Gold Gel Pen.

Warm Wishes - Simon Says Stamps Peace Love and Joy

I think Simon Says Stamps has adorable stamp sets, I used here one of their newest sets Peace Love and Joy.  It's such a cute set, I picked it up along with Simon and Dexter Christmas.


I used versamark and clear embossing powder and cut all the pieces out on my Brother ScanNcut2.  I colored all the pieces with Prismacolor Pencils.  The background was created using the 3 snowflake stamps in the set with versamark, white embossing powder and some distress Ink.  For the snow banks I used Lawn Fawn's Stitched Hillside Borders.

I'm entering this into

Ho Ho Ho Peppermint Lollipop Holder - My Creative Time 5 Days Of Christmas

Welcome Back to the 5 Day of Christmas from My Creative Time!
"We are SUPER EXCITED to bring back another 5 days of Christmas! We will have daily AWESOME prizes so you might want to tune in each day so you won't miss a thing! All you have to do is leave your comments on each stop for an opportunity to WIN!"

Check out what prizes are available today over at the MCT Blog!

I have another peppermint candy project to share using different dies.


I'd have to say peppermints are one of my favorite things to make at Christmas time.  For this one I started with one of the Bunch of Fun Circle dies that's larger then the circle from the Scallop & Stitched Circle die. I glued 5 cutouts from top layer of the Stitched Umbrella die, it's the smaller side.  I than centered the circle from the scallop stitched circle die and cut off the edges that are hanging over, this forms your peppermint.  For the end wrappers I used the broom from the Wicked Fun dies, I just trimmed off the edges in a jagged cut, I added a red enamel dot in the middle.  It really was super quick and easy to make and I really like how it came out.
