Pinkalicious Blog Hop Friday!

Welcome!  I am so glad that you have joined me tonight for My Pink Stamper's Pinkalicious Blog Hop Friday.  If you arrived here from Tracy at Craft Junkie Too then you're in the right place.  If you arrived here on your own tonight, I invite you to hop over to My Pink Stamper so you can begin at the beginning, and then you'll be sure to see Robyn's and all the Pink Designer's wonderful projects.

Tonight is going to be such a fun hop because it is all about goodies!  Goodie bags can be so fun to make, fun to embellish, and of coarse so fun to eat.  We are foodies at my house, and with the holidays right around the corner you can bet that I am trying to think of new and creative ways to deliver my homemade goodies that I give as gifts.  You'll see that tonight's project is more of a goodie box than a goodie bag.  In fact, it's nine boxes - all stacked and ready to fill with various holiday treats.























I made the boxes using Tags, Bags, Boxes & More and my trusty Gypsy, cut at 8.5".  Using glue dots, I stuck all the boxes together so that the flaps would all open down - then whatever I put inside won't just fall out when the boxes are opened.  I used some wire-edged ribbon all around the outside of the boxes for a little extra help keeping them together, and of coarse for a festive touch.  All of the Cricut cuts came from the Winter Woodland cartridge.  What a gem it is!  I love this font, and all the snowflakes and scallops.

No gift is complete without a tag:

























This tag was made using the My Pink Stamper set Yummylicious



I love this set!  And I know that I am going to get so much use out of it this holiday season.  If you would like to see the complete collection of My Pink Stamper sets, go here.  If you would like to find out where you can purchase these wonderful stamps, go here.

Stamps:  My Pink Stamper Yummylicious
Cricut Cartridge:  Winter Woodland, Tags Bags Boxes & More
Paper:  AC Cardstock, DCWV (red foil)
Embellishments:  ribbon (Costco), candy cane brad (Doodlebug Design)

Thank you for stopping by!  When you're finished hopping, don't forget to head back to My Pink Stamper and join us in a challenge.  Now it's time to hop along to Angela at Simple Creations.  I have also included the entire blog hop order below:

What a cute idea!! I would never have thought of anything like this! I love the colors and embellishments also!!

raising4boys said...

This project is incredible! This would make a fun countdown to Christmas too, at least the last nine days.

I love the cuts you did on this project. I guess I didn't look at the font that well on Winter Wonderland. That's why I love to see what others do with the cartridges ;)

You are genius! I love how you put all the little boxes together to create one large box. You could even make an advent calendar the same way.
