Coffee Cafe Treat Box

So fun making this cute treat box. It fits two mini chocolate bars in it. Or chocolate covered espresso beans would work really well in it too! I used the Coffee Cafe stamp set.

Smitten Mittens Tags

Love these Mittens! Quick and easy way to make a bunch of gift tags!
I folded the white cardstock and cut using the plain mitten die, making sure I didn't cut away the fold. Next used the decorative mitten die and cut them out of the coloured cardstock adhere to the front and stamped the inside of the tag.


Here they are opened up.
