Hi there blog friends!!! This is an exciting month because there are so many fabulous stamps to create with!! Today is Preview Day 1 of the new October releases with Waltzingmouse Stamps and I have to tell you, I had an absolute hissy fit over this new set. There wasn’t really an opportunity for me to do Christmas cards last year, so this year I’m savoring all the sights and sounds of a crafty Christmas. Today I have a card to share along with a little snicky snack gift and a tag to go along with. These were simple items to put together and are they every putting me in the mood for Christmas. We won’t divulge exactly how much of that Christmas Carmel Corn I consumed (um…quality tested) while making up the tag and wrappings :-)
So, Claire has put together another smashing set of labels called Seasonal Remedies, that will lend themselves very well to items of the food variety and even items of the beverage variety. You can spin them to make them work out for just about whatever you want.
.
I made my card base using Spellbinders™ Classic Scallop Edgeabilities then on another layer that I scored with my Scor-Buddy, I created a medallion using Spellbinders™ Twisted Metal Tag and Accents followed by Spellbinders™ Labels Sixteen then stamped my label and cut it using Spellbinders™ Labels Fifteen – a perfect match! I topped off with Spellbinders™ Postage Stamps that I bordered with some Zva Creative pearls in my stash. The sentiment is stamped on Spellbinders™ Nested Lacey Pennants. For the tag on my caramel corn I used Spellbinders™ Small Labels, then cut out a frame using Spellbinders™ Classic Ovals SM.

Hi Becca
Certainly is festive. Love the mesh ribbon! Maybe now I will be in the mood to continue my Christmas cards and gifts. I actually made a start a couple of weeks ago but soon ran out of festive oomph and gave up! Maybe I need to play some Christmas music, eat a mince pie and have a glass of wine to get into the “spirit”… Or maybe not! I am enjoying seeing your creations for
inspiration.
love Christine x
{HEART} these. The colours just pop out. Fabulous work Becca. xx
Fabulous card & treat box, Becca!! Love how you layer the different die cuts for the focal image on your card. Both projects are so wonderfully decorated, so festive and pretty.
Stunning, Becca. I realize I must use that adjective a lot when I comment on your projects, but that is the first word that comes to mind. I love the way you have framed the labels in such a way to really bring out their “essence”. Your layers and colors are so appealing. Love them both!
What a super set of Christmas goodness! I think your card is just stunning with the lovely layers and the box of popcorn – yummy!!
Absolutely stunning!! Your things are gorgeous! : )
Stunning Awesome Beautiful TFS.
Becca – once again you have created something stunning… love the colours and all the layers (must try that!!) and the popcorn looks yummy and beautifully presented. tfs

Such a beautiful set.
Very pretty card and the goodies look good enough to eat. Edna
Wonderful layering of die cuts on your beautiful card Becca! and I just love the clear box of caramel corn (yum!!) with its pretty ribbons and lovely label!
Becca, fabulous card. Love the many layers, stamps, bow & embellies. The snack also looks yummy. Well done.
God bless,
Peggy
In a word it’s a stunning gift set. Your work always amazes me Becca. Love the texture and how you have embellished this set. Beautiful work. As always Becca, TFS!!! :-D
Yet another wonderful card, plus a yummy “Snack Box” .
Love everything about this project.

Becca, you always amaze me with your beautiful creations! I love your style! Your colors are so well-matched!
Becca this is such an amazing card. I love the layering as I do all of your cards. We just got a contract on our house and are moving to Olympia, Washington. I will miss card making for a while but you will keep my juices flowing while I move and set up my room. Keep them coming!!!!
Brilliant! Love everything about it. So inspiring to get started on Christmas, gosh it’ll be here so soon.
Blessings Bernie
Sooooo pretty. My mom always gets in the Christmas spirit early too. Me…. well for some reason I find myself singing Christmas songs in summer time. I wonder if that might be because that is closer to the real birth date of Jesus. Who knows, I guess if it were important to know the real birth date, God would have made it known for sure in the Bible. Wouldn’t it be nice if we ALL had the Christmas spirit year round? Loving, Kindness, Giving, year round. What a much nicer world it would be. All my best to you and your family, God bless…… Denice
Becca, these are just beautiful!
Great job on both!
Beautiful gift ensemble Becca! Love the rich color combo!
Great card, love the layering and the way you framed the joy. Love the lace and punched edge together
Mmm, such goodness! Yummie projects! Love the delicious layers of pretties!
This is so beautiful!
Truly stunning!! I admire your talent for layering!!
Another really beautiful card.
I really love your card and the colors are amazing!! I had already decided to use red and gold as my Christmas wrapping theme this year (already bought the paper and ribbons) so this confirms my choice. I think the caramel corn looks yummy!
All I can say is…… YOU ARE AMAZING! I wish I had just 1% of your talent! Won’t you PLEASE open an Etsy store or website where I can made your projects!!!!
What a wonderful gift ensemble!! I love the red and gold on the card and gift box!!
Love your attention to every detail. Speaking of detail, these stamps are so crisp and beautiful.
WOW!!!!!!! VERY NICE!!!!!!!! This is QUITE SHARP Becca!!!!!!!!! :)
OMG this is so so so beautiful and the color is wow
thank for showing
Well of course you had to run quality control tests on the caramel corn! If you intend to give it as a gift, the quality much match that of the packaging and card! Since they are incredible…well it’s obvious you had to “test”! LOL. Gorgeous set!

What a gorgeous gift set Becca!! Your framing is exquisite! And that little house is just darling!! Love your caramel corn packaging also!! WOW!
You give us the real spirit of Chrismas with you beautiful project and the idea for something ready to give, but it is hard to resist with caramel popcorn… They look good.
Wow!! Talk about your Nestie Heaven!!! Amazing job!!!
