Have you ever been afraid to use a brand new product? And then you knock yourself over the head for having waited so long. I have to admit I've had those moments quite a few times. The latest one was with Stampin' Up!'s Sweet Treat Cups. And why, pray tell? They're absolutely easy and fun to use!!! Especially for a person like me who excels in the sport of eating candies. That's right; to me it's a sport. Can't get enough of 'em. I love to buy them, I love to eat and I love to give them as gifts.
Look at that! Wouldn't you like to get a card like this filled with candies?! So easy to do too! You stamp the Christmas ornament image from Sweet Centers stamp set, punch a whole with the 1 3/4" Circle punch, pass the cup through, fill it with candies, back it up with a piece of Real Red CS and you've a wonderful centerpiece for your card. The backgroup paper is from Merry Moments DSP and the card base is Whisper White. I've added a little bow with some Silver Elastic Cord and the sentiment from Berry Christmas stamp set is embossed in Silver EP. Oh, and I've rounded some corners with the 3/16" Corner Rounder punch.
Oh, and you know what's great?! Stampin' Up! even thought of padded envelopes to send those special cards through the mail!!! What will they think of next?!
Can't wait for Christmas to see what candies my Santas will bring me :-)
