Pals Stampin' Up! Fall Flair Blog Hop

Glad you could join us for some fun fall crafting with the Stampin' Pretty Pals! You've probably hopped over from Stop #7 Bobbi's My Therapy Blog.  I'm stop #8 on the Pals Hop! I'll help you "hop along" from blog to blog where you'll find great ideas for Stampin' Up! fall projects! Should you hop off course, simply click on any of the links in the Pals Hop Line-up below and you'll be back on track.

My daughter recently started college and loves it when mom sends her mail.  My fall hop project includes a handmade card, coordinating envelope and spruced up candy bar for those late nights of studying. 

To create the "wrap" for the King Sized Hershey Bar, I cut Island Indigo card stock to 6 x 5 1/2".  Using my Simply Scored Scoring Tool, I scored the 5 1/2" side at 1 3/8", 1 3/4", 3 3/4" and 4 1/8".  A touch of Orchard Harvest Designer Series Paper and fun cropped shapes (Autumn Accents Bigz Die) turn the yummy treat into terrific!

The Orchard Harvest Designer Series rectangles measure 1 5/8" x 7/8".  The Early Espresso mat is 1 3/4"" x 1".  The Raspberry Ripple 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon found it's home in the grooves of the maple leaf.

A coordinating A2 card sized envelope (also used Orchard Harvest Designer Series Paper) pulls everything together.  I used the Stampin' Up! Simply Scored Scoring Tool and Simply Scored Diagonal Plate.  Here's my Simply Scored Diagonal Plate Envelope Chart for the details.

KEEP HOPPING!  Now hop along for more inspiring ideas from Barb Furlong at The Love of Stamping, stop #9 on the Pals Fall Flair Blog Hop! Thanks for "hopping" by!
