Hello friends and welcome to the official Stampin’ Up! Artisan Design Team blog hop. If this is your first visit, welcome to Canada!
This blog hop is all about the treats and celebrations. The team is using either the Cool Treats Bundle or the Happy Celebrations Stamp Set. For me, it wasn’t an easy choice to pick Cool Treats, as I do love both SO much.
BUT, when it came time to create my brain was blank. Nada. Nothing. Zero ideas. So I did what I always do when this happens, and CASEd (copy and share everything) a card I’d made previously that I totally love – you can see it HERE. And that’s how this little beauty was born.
The Cool Treats Bundle is definitely the focus here (I just adore everything about it!), but I think it’s the extras that take this card over the top. The Cupcakes & Carousels Embellishment Kit is filled with extravagant pieces to add to your project. So make sure you get one before they sell out. It’s on SALE too – SCORE!
And the coordinating Tasty Treats Specialty Designer Series Paper too!
You will find a full list of supplies I’ve used for today’s project with clickable links to my Canadian Online Stampin’ Up! Shop at the end of this post.
As soon as you place an order of $50 or more (before shipping & tax) and use the monthly hostess code, you become one of my VIP customers and receive a bundle of 12 incredible tutorials as my thank you to you. Check out the tutorial bundle sneak peeks for this month:

Charm me? Thanks Allison ^^. I am glad to know that sometimes you also have no ideas (I feel less alone). I like the original card, but the copy is not bad either! The colors are fresh and colorful and the kit of embellishments is really the greatest asset! (Aurélie Fabre)
Hi Aurélie! Yes I had been struggling lately with being creative, but thankfully it has passed. PHEW!

I am LOVING your word stamped background, and the blue ice cream! Looks like a pretty darn good idea to me 😉
Thanks so much Tanya. So sweet of you to leave me such a kind comment.

Love it! But I hardly believe you ever have a creative blank! LOL! You creations are always perfect! Love the layered bow!
The struggle is real! It doesn't happen often, but when it does – ouch! Thankfully my mojo has returned!
