Last night I held my monthly Suite Escape, which is like a mini mid week retreat. I pick a product suite from the catalog, this month it’s the Painted Autumn Suite, I create 4 projects and provide a home made sweet treat, and I offer specials that evening. Here’s this month’s home made treat! I covered Oreo cookies with colored chocolate in a mold to make a sunflower to match on of the cards we made at class.
I placed each cookie in a 3″ x 6″ Gusseted Cellophane Bag and tied it up with Old Olive 1/8″ Sheer Ribbon. Next I stamped the sunflower image from Painted Harvest in So Saffron, Daffodil Delight and Soft Suede and punched the image out with the Starburst Punch. I added a couple leaves that were punched out with the Leaf Punch and a banner stamped with a sentiment from the Painted Harvest stamp set. (The Painted Harvest stamp set and Leaf Punch are sold separately or combined in a bundle for a 10% savings.)
Here’s the coordinating card. I used the same sun flower images on this card and added a stamped leaf before layering it on a mat of Early Espresso. Isn’t the leaf print paper gorgeous? It’s part of the Painted Autumn Designer Series Paper, which is part of the whole Painted Autumn Suite of products. I finished the card off with a bow tied up with the Old Olive 3/8″ Mini Chevron Ribbon. I’ve got more great cards featuring the Painted Harvest Suite coming up the next three days so be sure to come on back!
