When my local stamp club met last weekend, each of the club members was greeted with a tiny treat at their workspace (or should we call it playspace?) The treat holders were quickly pulled together with the stamps and dies in the Tiny Keepsakes Bundle and the GORGEOUS Wrapped in Plaid 6″ x 6″ Specialty Designer Series Paper. Here’s a look at the treats:
Aren’t they adorable?! These treat holders a a bit smaller than the Curvy Keepsakes Dies that Stampin’ Up! sold years ago – which makes them easier to make and easier to fill (both are very important criteria for a treat holder, right?). Here’s a look at the Tiny Keepsakes Bundle, which includes the Tiny Keepsakes stamp set and Mini Curvy Keepsakes Dies:
The finished box size is 2-1/8″ x 1-7/8″ x 1-7/8″. That just big enough to tuck a Farrero Rocher inside. If you have never had a Farrero Roche, they are hazelnut/chocolate/wafer treats that look adorable inside a Mini Curvy Keepsakes Dies treat holder. You can find them in most grocery stores these days.The coordinating Mini Curvy Keepsakes Dies includes ten dies
- Tiny Keepsakes Die
- Stitched Square
- Stitched Oval
- Stitched Teardrop
- Stitched Star Stitched Heart
- 2 Snowflake Dies
- 2 Sprigs
The dies that create the base for the treat holder are the perfect size to cut one 6″ x 6″ piece of paper. That makes them perfect to use with the Wrapped in Plaid 6″ x 6″ Specialty Designer Series Paper – it’s a sturdy paper and shines with gorgeous, gold accents. Here’s a look at the colors and patterns in the Wrapped in Plaid 6″ x 6″ Specialty Designer Series Paper:
All of my club members said, “I couldn’t tell how gorgeous this paper was from the catalog.” I brought my Designer Series Paper Swatch Books with me to show them the papers – these treat holders were another great way to showcase this paper to them.
Here are closer looks at some of the other treat holders from the event:
How adorable are those stitched tags?! I love them and had fun stamping them, cropping them and attaching them to the treat holders. Here’s a look at some of the Mini Curvy Keepsake treat holders that are showcased in the 2019 Holiday Catalog:
Thanks for stopping by today!

Some people love to make cards, and some people love to make tags. Most people love to make both! To deliver more of what Paper Pumpkin subscribers love this holiday season, Stampin’ Up! is offering back-to-back coordinating kits (one with Christmas cards and one with Christmas tags) in October (sign up before October 10) and November (sign up between October 11 and November 10). Both kits make it easy for you to add a handmade, personal touch to your holiday giving—without a lot of fuss.
To read more about these coordinating kits, click here.
I really want you to sign up for these kits because I believe they are going to be wonderful. If you subscribe with me (or are currently subscribed with me) and receive both the October and November kits, then I will send you a small gift of coordinating products as soon as the November kit ships (it might be products from the catalog or a little kit I’ve pulled together with the stamps from the first kit). How fun is that?!

Those are so adorable in plaid! Thanks for sharing!
These are very cute treats in these gorgeous plaids. I think I need another pack of this DSP. Enjoy your weekend.
just ordered this set- thanks for the affirmation I did the right thing!! Can’t wait to play!
You are the dang best host ever! How sweet to welcome friends to a gathering with sweets and so much fun to make! We don’t have those candies here but when I go to CT next week I’ll check out the grocery stores there. I love the way you put the little sprigs on with the tags. I so wish I lived closer to you so I could attend one of your over-the-top fun gatherings!
I just opened the above e-mail and had to laugh. I spent the week-end playing with the Curvy Keepsake die and plaid paper to test drive Christmas party favors for the company Christmas party.
Great minds think alike.
