Off to Leadership!

I am so excited to go to my first Leadership conferernce with Stampin' Up!  I have some swaps made (to trade with other demos and get more ideas), classes signed up to attend, and new and old friends to meet and exchange ideas.  My favorite thing is the Make and Takes, where I get to make some new cards and paper crafts!  Bliss!

I'll be gone until Saturday, but I plan to post every day with new ideas and updates from San Antonio.  I've never been to Texas so I'm really looking forward to seeing some  sights while I'm there as well.  It's going to be a whirlwind.

Anyway I whipped up a quick little gift for my roommate and a couple ladies I know from my old upline Kim....I wanted to make them a little something so I pulled out my matchbox die and made these little candy boxes.  It took no time at all and I think they turned out pretty cute!

Mmmm chocolate!  I hope they like them!  I hope I don't eat them before I give them away :)

The matchbox die #114890 is a great one for the Big Shot- excellent for little favors for a shower, baby gift, teacher gift or just anytime!  Here's a list of the products I used:

Tiny Tags stamp set #118091 (wood) #118592 (clear) for the friends stamp and heart (adorable set)
JewelryTag punch #117190
Full Heart Punch #119883
Real Red card stock and ink
Pool Party card stock and ink (love the combination of red and pool party, don't you?)
1/8" Real Red Taffeta Ribbon #119251
And the red polka dot is leftover Holly Berry DSP (discontinued).
