Project Recipe
Cut cardstock pieces to the following sizes using a Paper Trimmer:
- 2-3/4" x 4-1/2" from Boho Blue Cardstock
- 2-1/2" x 4" from Basic White Cardstock
- 1-1/4" x 3" from Basic White Cardstock
- 2-1/2" x 3-1/2" from Parakeet Party Cardstock
- 1-1/4" x 2-1/2" from Boho Blue Cardstock
- scrap of paper at least 1-1/4" x 3-1/2"
Mount the Countryside Corners stamp on Block F. Leave the stamp rubber side up on your work surface. Use the side of the brush tip of the Boho Blue Stampin' Write Marker to ink up the 4th frame from the center (the dashes).
Leave the stamp inky rubber side up on your work surface. Carefully place the large Boho Blue rectangle on top of the inky stamp so it covers the center of the stamp and all of the fourth frame from the center (the dashes). Place a piece of Grid Paper on top of the cardstock/inky rubber and rub firmly all over. Remove the Grid Paper and the inked up cardstock rectangle. Set aside. Clean the stamp using the Stampin' Scrub and Stampin' Mist Stamp Cleaner and/or Simply Shammy, but leave the stamp on the block.
Re-ink the third frame from the center (the flowers) on the Countryside Corners stamp on Block F by using the side of the brush tip of the Boho Blue Stampin' Write Marker.
Leave the stamp inky rubber side up on your work surface. Carefully place the larger white rectangle on top of the inky stamp so it covers the center of the stamp and all of the third frame. Place a piece of Grid Paper on top of the cardstock/inky rubber and rub firmly all over. Remove the Grid Paper and the inked up cardstock rectangle. Set aside.
Tip: I just clean my large background stamps by running water over them until the water runs clear and then letting them air dry.
Pick out the die from the Countryside Corners Dies that cuts out a label that is 2-3/8" x 4". Put it on top of the stamped label image on the Boho Blue cardstock on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so it is centered over the image. Run through the machine.
Pick out the die from the Countryside Corners Dies that cuts out a label that is 1-7/8" x 3-3/8". Put it on top of the stamped label image on the white rectangle on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so it is centered over the image. Run through the machine.
Unlock the Vintage Bottle Punch. Hold the punch upside down so you can see the punching area. Slide the scrap of paper into the punch and get it centered in the punching area. Punch. Leave the punch open.
Turn the stamped white label cut out upside down on your work surface. Place the bottle punched from the scrap of paper in the center about 1/2" from the bottom so the bottle is upright. Lightly trace the outline of the bottle punched out of the scrap of paper using the fine tip of the Boho Blue Stampin' Write Marker.
Slide the white label cut out into the open Vintage Bottle Punch and get the drawn outline centered in the punching area. Punch.
Pick out a Vintage Bottle Shaker Dome.
Peel the protective backing off the FRONT of the rim around the Vintage Bottle Shaker Dome. Adhere the stamped and punched white label cut out over the top of the shaker dome so you can see the stamped frame.
Turn the white label cut out with shaker dome attached upside down. Put a few large pinches of Gilded Leafing inside the shaker dome.
Peel the protective backing off the BACK of the rim of the Vintage Bottle Shaker Dome. Adhere the small Boho Blue rectangle to the back of the white label cut out so all the edges of the shaker dome are covered. Press firmly along the edges of the shaker dome to make a tight seal so none of the Gilded Leafing can escape.
Put strips of Tear & Tape Adhesive along the edges and in the center of the back of the white label cut out with filled shaker dome attached. Remove the protective backings and adhere the shaker dome label cut out to the center of the Boho Blue label cut out.
Use Tear & Tape Adhesive to adhere the layered shaker dome label cut outs to the lower left side of a Boho Blue bag from the 2023-2025 In Color Treat Bags.
As you are ready to stamp using the Bottled Happiness Set, place the cardstock on the Stampin' Pierce Mat. Using the mat will help you get a cleaner image each time you stamp.
Mount the "overflowing with happiness" sentiment from the Bottled Happiness Set on Block H. Ink it up with the Boho Blue Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the remaining horizontal white rectangle leaving room to cut it out.
Pick out the die from the Countryside Corners Dies that cuts out a label that is 1-3/4" x 2-3/8". Put it on top of the stamped sentiment on a platform on your Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine so it is centered over the sentiment. Run through the machine.
Adhere the sentiment label cut out to the front of the bag so the bottom is even with the bottom of the shaker dome and it sticks out to the right side.
Unlock the Bough Punch. Hold the punch upside down so you can see the punching area. Slide the Parakeet Party strip into the punch and get it centered in the punching area. Punch. Remove the Parakeet Party strip and slide it back in so you can punch out one more small branch.
WITHOUT ADHERING, lay the punched out Parakeet Party branches on top of the bag so they appear to be poking out of the top of the bottle to figure out spacing and placement. Snip off excess stem at the bottom of each branch as needed using Paper Snips Scissors.
When happy with the arrangement of the branches, adhere them in place one at a time using Multipurpose Liquid Glue or Fine-Tip Glue Pen.
Cut a 10" piece of the Boho Blue 3/8" Textured Ribbon.
Tie a small bow in the center of the ribbon and trim the ends.
Use a Mini Glue Dot to adhere the ribbon bow to the center of the neck of the bottle shaker dome.
Use the mini spatula on the Take Your Pick to carefully peel up 3 dragonflies from the sheet of Adhesive-Backed Dragonflies & Birds making sure that you get the adhesive backings as well. Adhere them to the upper right side of the bag front as shown.
Fill the bag with treats.
Fold the top of the bag over towards the back and secure it closed with a piece of washi tape or Scotch tape.
