Love You to Pieces with Sweet Treats, part 1

Peanut butter is, perhaps, the most perfect thing on Planet Earth. Whether you whip it up in something sweet or add it to a savory dish, it’s a perfect food that’s delicious anytime of day. Peanut butter is even delicious on it’s own – just need a spoon or a long finger. My passion for peanut butter informed my love of the Love You to Pieces stamp set in Stampin’ Up!’s 2018 Annual Catalog. “Love you to pieces” immediately translates to “Reese’s Pieces,” right?

Here are two quick-and-easy – but super fun – projects I made with my monthly club members this past week:

Love You to Pieces with Reece's Pieces, Stampin' Up!, Brian KingHow adorable are these? Reese’s Pieces are packed into a 2″ x 8″ Cellophane Bag for one treat and packed into a Clear Tiny Treat Box for the other. The puzzle pieces that top each treat are the same. These treats are utterly adorable when showcased inside either clear container.

Love You To Pieces Bundle

Here’s a look at the Love You to Pieces Bundle that I used to make these fun tags that tie-in perfectly with the sweet treat inside:

I think today’s project is both beautiful and tasty and I want some so I better get off this computer and head out! LOL

  14. Brian, love your idea on this but how did u get a light color puzzle piece with black script? My script is always white or the color of the paper Iโ€™m using?? Thank u

    • Hi Mary! Thanks for your message. I stamped the image with Versamark and stamped it on Basic Black cardstock and heat embossed it with white Stampin’ Emboss Powder. That way, the black sentiment is left as the color of the cardstock in the background. ๐Ÿ™‚ Hope that helps!
