A sneak peek of what’s to come…

I am so darn excited about our upcoming stamp release that I just couldn’t wait to show you at least a little something before the official countdown starts on the 10th!  Do you remember how I gave you the hint that there would be a new candy to wrap for those of you who are tired of nuggets? 

Well how about my personal favorite, miniature Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups!

I stamped these specially designed circular labels onto white cardstock.

Then added two mini words to the blank centers of the labels (there are nine mini words total in this set!)

Next I used a 1-1/8" circle punch (EK Success) to punch out the labels.

I then adhered them to the top of the Reese’s Cups.  I decided they needed a bit of glam, so I included mini rhinestones in appropriate areas.

I knew I wanted to contain these in our 4oz. square clear top tin, but I felt that the inside needed a little pizazz to set the color of the labels off.  So I cut a strip of cardstock measuring 1.25 x 8.25 and stamped it with this fun flourish stamp from one of the new sets that will be revealed next week.

I adhered the strip inside the tin.  It really adds a great detail to this piece.

These tins fit four Reese’s Cups perfectly.

Once the inside is completed, you can add a quick box band to the tin created from white cardstock and ribbon.  The Kindred Spirits image is on behalf of my love affair with the spirit of friendship celebrated in Anne of Green Gables.

Now this will have to hold you over for a bit!  I still have quite a bit of work to do to prepare for our upcoming reveal, but who knows.  Perhaps I will be hit by another wave of creativity that just can’t wait till the 10th?!?!??
