The ORNATE GARDEN SUITE is an amazing collection that includes two stamp sets, two coordinating dies, a 3D embossing folder, a double ribbon combo, specialty designer series paper and gilded gems.

I am having so much fun creating with all the elements of this suite. The florals and colours are simply gorgeous. I’ve lost count of the number of projects I have made so far.

For this project I wanted to feature layered Old Olive and Terracotta Tile, with a hint of texture from the 3D embossing folder.

Another card ready to send.

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping.

The products I used for this project are listed below.

It is time for another chocolate holder.

This is the first bag I have made this way. It has a flat fold base.

I used an empty Lindt bag, with the same type of base, as a template.

The ORNATE GARDEN SPECIALTY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER, COPPER FOIL, COPPER STAMPIN’ EMBOSS POWDER and the COPPER TRIM (from the Notes of Kindness Card Kit) look amazing against the white.

This bag is all about the score lines and by deconstructing the Lindt bag I knew exactly where and how to make my own.

I am soooooo pleased with how well it turned out. The base is also really stable.

The belly band is all that keeps you from the chocolate.

Thanks for popping by … happy stamping … this Easter!

With the Easter weekend just a few short days away, I thought that I would make some hand-crafted packaging for gifts to share.

My first gift box was designed to hold five, small Lindt bunnies.

I used the swap that I received at the Paper Angels event I was recently invited to as the ‘prototype’ for this project. Thank you Maree!

Who doesn’t love a little Lindt chocolate at this time of year?

This is a grown up’s Easter gift!

This gift box is larger than the swap I was so fortunate to receive. My tip for gift boxes and bags – deconstruct the project and then adapt with new measurements.

The mini bunnies are dressed in gold foil – so I went with gold foil and the ORNATE GARDENS SPECIALTY DESIGNER SERIES PAPER.

The coordinating ORNATE BORDER DIES were ideal for the gold accent and layered flowers on top of the box.

The sentiment came from the FABLE FRIENDS STAMP SET and the tassel is from the BEST DRESSED SUITE. There is unlimited coordination across all Stampin’ Up! ® products.

Enjoy your Easter weekend – even if you are isolated from family and friends.
