Hello! Happy Tuesday! Welcome to the October Baker's Dozen Studio Challenge. This is an opportunity for us to share what makes our stamping studios hum. Each month we will have a fun, crafty question so we can share our favorites, some tips and tricks, stamping advice and more.
The theme for October is:
Good things come in small packages! The holiday season is upon us and between Halloween, Thanksgiving, Hannukah, and Christmas there are a ton of opportunities to create and give little treats, gifts, and party favors. Please show us something you'll be giving this year.
I decided to make some treats for Sabrina's teachers and paras. I made a batch of snickerdoodle blondies and packaged them up in Mini Kraft Bakery Bags. I made a tag to add to each bag using Cuppie in the Kitchen. I used Label Stacklets 1 to create my layered tag, some patterned paper from the Art Angel collection (Cosmo Cricket). The sentiments are from Many Minis - Holidays, stamped onto a Fly Your Flag 2 die cut. I stamped, colored, pieced and cut out my images, then I added them to the tags with foam tape. Here are a couple different versions of the tags that I made:
And, in case you're interested, here is a closer look at the snickerdoodle blondies. These turned out so moist and yummy - I'll be adding them to my permanent recipe file! I used this recipe by the Brown Eyed Baker.
These are the Taylored Expressions stamps and dies that I used today:
