This month I purchased some new products - the Treat Time Stamp Set and Pettie Treat Framelits, so I decided to use the framelits for the first time and create a cute little treat package for Christmas.
To create a Christmas themed project I used the All Is Bright DSP from the 2018 Holiday Catalogue and the Better Together Stamp Set from the 2018-2019 Annual Catalogue. The Better Together Stamp Set combines sentiments and small images for a number of occasions into the one set. Sympathy, New Baby, Weddings, Hello and Christmas, are just a few of the topics covered. It is a versatile set and the sentiments can be mixed in with other stamp sets to broaden there use as well.
The tag is made using a framelit from the Pettie Treat set and a 1 3/4" circle punch. I used gold mini sequin trim to add a little sparkle and the 1/8" Real Red Solid ribbon to attach the tag to the treat package.
These sour cream style packages are easy and quick to make as you can see from the video below and makes a fun addition to any Christmas table or just to package small gifts for family and friends.
I hope you enjoy the remainder of the hop and gain heaps of Christmassy inspiration from the team.

CASEing Dena was so much fun. Here is what she inspired me to create.
This is the card that I took my inspiration from. For more details about how you can re-create Dena's project click here.
I loved the layout in Dena's card, so used it to base my card around. I used elements from the Tropical Escape Suite (p. 121 2018-2019 Annual Catalogue), including the Tropical Chic stamp set, Tropical Thinlits and the Tropical Escape 6" x 6" DSP.
To add just a little bit of glitz to the card I used the Champagne Mist shimmer paint with a sponge dauber on the scalloped square.

Welcome once again to the Crazy Crafters Blog Hop. This time we are CASEing (Copying And Selectively Editing) any project that has been created by Jenny Hall. Thank you for joining us today Jenny. We hope that you find today's blog hop inspiring.

I was inspired to create this card for our hop today.
I love Jenny's projects and it was hard to choose just one to CASE, but this is where my inspiration came from.
I used the Sheet Music stamp set on the Tranquil Textures Designer Series Paper with Fresh Fig ink to create a tone on tone background in the same way that Jenny used on her card. I love how tone on tone gives extra texture to the DSP, adding more interest to the card.
I then used the Petal Palette stamp set to create the main focal point of the rose in the corner of the card. The white embossed sentiment also came from this stamp set.
I added some shimmer paint to rubbing alcohol and sprayed it on the flowers to give a little shine.
This card is pretty quick to create. For more information and to see a tutorial check out the video below.

Welcome to the monthly Stampin' Dreams Blog Hop. This month's theme is Holiday Catalogue Sneak Peek.
You are currently visiting Rosalie Desmond from Australia. I hope you enjoy my project.
One of my favourite (& there are lots of them) products in the 2018 Holiday Catalogue, which goes live for customers on the 5th September, is the chicken wire elements. I knew I had to incorporate this in my first holiday catalogue project.
In this card I have combined Night of Navy card stock with touches of silver in both the chicken wire and also the clear faceted gems. I used a swirl stamp from Merry Christmas To All stamp set, to create the background and a large sentiment from the same set as the focal point.
If you would like more details about creating this card, please check out my video.
I hope you enjoy the blog hop and find lots of inspiration. Please see the list below and hop through all the people on the list, so you don't miss any of the projects!
Today I am joining the Go For Greece Blog Hop. In this hop, lots of lovely members of the Go For Greece Training Group have joined forces to inspire you.
You may just be starting the blog hop here at my blog - Rosalie Desmond or may have come from the person previous to me. Be sure to click on the person listed under me further down the page to continue your journey on this blog hop. While this card design is simple, I also find it very elegant. Due to the sentiment "Amazing You" this card can be used for a variety of occasions.
I love to stretch my stamp sets and look outside the norm. I have done this with Hold On To Hope set. This set is a religious set which is very useful for projects that are for occasions such as Baptisms, Christenings, Confirmations or Sympathy. By simply using a different sentiment, in this case die cuts from Celebrate You thinlit set, I have been able to use some of the images to create a heat embossed background.
For more details on how to make this card, please check out my video.
This card design would work with any card stock colour.
Thank you for joining me today. I hope you find lots of inspiration,
Welcome to the latest Ink and Inspiration blog hop. You are currently visiting Rosalie Desmond from AUSTRALIA. I hope you enjoy this months project. Our theme for this month is - Birthday Surprise. For today's theme I decided to take the opportunity to add a masculine card to my stash. Birthday cards are the most used card type in our house and I often struggle to come up with ideas for the males in our lives.
The card I have created fits into a standard size Australian envelope which makes it cheaper for posting. To change it up a little from a standard fold, I have created a twisted easel card and used the sentiment "celebrate" bumped up with dimensionals, to hold the front of the card in place.
I stamped some of the images from Artisan Textures in the chosen colours to create background and let word framelits and coloured card stock to do the rest of the work.The colour choice comes from this months Stampin' Up! Color Challenge facebook group. The colour combo is Pacific Point, Smoky Slate, So Saffron and Real Red.
