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.
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

I would jump for joy if StampinUp would introduce a baby bottle punch, or better yet a die.
Wonderful products, Mary! Thanks for sharing and inspiring!
I love the candy bar sleeve! I’m thinking I will CASE it for a fun addition to my trick-or-treat handouts!
I came across your blog via Pinterest. Love your cards. Thank you, thank you, thank you for giving dimensions of your card “parts”. So often I see cards and wish to recreate or use them as a starting point, and having dimensions is a huge help. I’ll be making your blog a “favorite”!
TOTALLY love the use of the DSP used here. Great projects Mary x
Love your fall card…
Can you hear me squealing with delight at these fabulous projects? Can you see me getting ready to CASE them?! Gorgeous, as always!!
So talented and creative, you are! =)
Another project that is sheer perfection! You have so much creativity. Mary you are so inspiring, from your work, your thoughtfulness and always taking the time to leave heartening comments. I truly appreciate it all!
Your daughter will be the envy of everyone in her dorm! It’s a beautiful set.
Wonderful and very colorful projects, Mary!
Mary you are going to make your daughters day! What a sweet card, candy package that will be waiting in her mailbox! Thank you for sharing your projects and your sweet story with us blog hoppers today on this super fun new hop!
Love your card and gift, Mary….your daughter is so fortunate to have you as her mom.
Another inspiring creation! I don’t know how you hit a grand slam at every at-bat, Mary! Fabulous. I bet your daughter is so thrilled when she picks up her mail! I would be!
I feel a definite CASE coming on!!! Love the colors, and the whole layout of the card.
Thanks so much for sharing your talents!
Love all your pretty details Mary!
Love all your pretty details Mary!
Love all your pretty details Mary!
I know I’ve said it before … Bold and Beautiful. Fantastic way to showcase this DSP. TFS
Great way to showcase the call DSP’s!! I love every detail of your fall card!
Awesome set Mary.
Love the texture on the leaves and how you used the small pieces of paper to make the one large strip at the bottom of the card!
Good point, Diane . . . this card layout is perfect for scraps. I hadn’t thought of that! Hugs, Mary
Bright fall colors!! Beautiful Mary!
Love this card and candy wrapper. Have a kiddo in Texas that may be receiving one very close to it soon. hehe!!
Fabulous! I know what my daughter will be receiving in the near future – she is going to LOVE you! Thanks for the inspiration.
I love that embossed leaf, along with everything else! Cute Candy Bar Wrapper too! I bet her roommate is jealous!
I am sure Caroline will LOVE not only receiving this darling treat in the mail – but appreciate the sweet treat that you have wrapped up. Many THANKS for sharing girlfriend!
Love, love, love this!! I am sure your daughter has so much fun getting her mail 🙂 Today I am cleaning my craft space and then I want to play with my Autumn Accents die!!! Thanks for the inspiration 🙂
Love it! I love fall and any cards and projects that have the wonderful colors of fall. Can I be an adopted daughter! Great job, as always!!
Mary-this is wonderful! I can never decide which DSP to use when I get a new package, and the idea of using 5 selections works for me! Not to mention that it is a good use for scraps from other projects (because we cannot discard even the smallest scraps of DSP). Thank you.
Hello, Mary: I love this card, lovely colors and that chocolate bar wrapper is fabulous. I’m sure your little girl will love receiving this gifts from her mom. She will be the envy of her college friends.
I certainly would have been thrilled to have received this from my Mom while in college! Beautiful card, envelope and what is not to like about the wrapped candy bar! In my CASE file, this will go….. Hugs
