These are cute little Hershey Nugget boxes on the outside, but when you pull the “drawer” open, the magic happens!

The little present attached to a Window Sheet lever, pops up when the “drawer” is pulled out. Here’s a video showing how to make these boxes. Please subscribe to my YouTube channel while you’re there I make new videos each week and love to make fun folds and 3-D gift items. I also have a written tutorial going out in my next newsletter, so please subscribe here if you’d like the written tutorial.

I made this box for my son, Ryan’s, 26th birthday last week. Nobody I know likes Apple Pie more than Ryan, so I made him a homemade apple pie for his “birthday cake.” The secrets to my pie are a lard crust and several different types of apples so the flavors all meld together. I also gave him this sweet little box of Nuggets with the Apple Pie popping up. Ryan liked it even better when he found money underneath the Hershey Nuggets. Our dear friend, Janene, had us all over for a wonderful birthday dinner and sent him home with Scotcheroos, another of his favorite treats.

November Thank You Cards

I am participating in Bruno and Kylie’s World Wide Training Group again this year and am excited to be part of their monthly Blog Hop.   The Blog Hop focuses on the Thank You cards that we are sending to our customers. 

I have the best customers and team and want to show my appreciation with thank you cards. This is an easy card to make and will surely brighten someone’s day!!

I used the Whimsy & Wonder Designer Series Paper (DSP). The penguin is Misty Moonlight to match the paper instead of the traditional black. The other colors are Polished Pink and Mango Melody.

Here’s my live video showing how to make the card and Post it Note Holder. My husband, Steve, and I have fun doing the Live videos and would love to have you join us every Tuesday at 7pm Central.

Nov 16-18 Seasonal Sale! 10% off cardstock, 15% off ink pads and 20% off Annual Catalog dies. Email me at Beth@StampingMom.com if you’d like me to place your order for you, otherwise please use Host Code HCRYF6K3 and shop here. I’m adding an additonal free gift for orders of $50+. If your order totals more than $150, don’t use the Host Code and you’ll still get to pick a free gift.

Last weekend we had OnStage@Home, Stampin’ Up’s Annual Conference. They do a recognition night and this was by far my best year ever! I was shocked to find out I was #92 overall in the USA!! Thanks to all my sweet customers, Joy Team, my uplines- Ann Schach, Mary Fish and Lisa Pretto, and fellow demos from Kylie’s Demo Training Program, Festive Friday Challenge and Creativity Abounds! I appreciate all of you!

 Please join me and spend some time hopping from one Blog to another.

National Cookie Day

I love the “Nothing’s Better Than” stamp set! Nothing’s Better Than Cookies, Coffee, Cocktails or Chocolate. Which would you pick? I think I would pick Chocolate first, but I also really like Cookies and Coffee. Steve can’t live without coffee, especially first thing in the morning, so it would be first on his list!

It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge!  This week’s challenge #FF0097 is National Cookie Day which is on December 4th. Who doesn’t like National Cookie Day? My son, Sean, would rather have cookies at his wedding instead of wedding cake. 🙂

The Inspo List is 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Incorporate THREE or more of the items in your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge  I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item and join us. If you want help entering, please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com and I’d be happy to help you! From the Inspo List I used cookie, brown and circles.  Your entry doesn’t have to have anything to do with National Cookie Day.

What’s better than a Mini Paper Pumpkin Box full of cookies?! What kind of cookie is your favorite? Please let me know in the comments. I really like Oatmeal Chocolate Chip with nuts. Almost everything I used was from the “Nothing’s Better Than” Bundle. I put Wink of Stella on the cookies to make them sparkly in real life. The DSP is the In Color 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper Assortment. Rhinestone Basic Jewels adds a little more sparkle. Please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com if you have any questions.
