Handmade Valentine's Day treats

the class dates and time are:  cost:  $45

1.  Sunday, January 8th 11am-1pm

2.  Monday, January 9th 10m-12pm

3.  Sunday, January 15th 11am-1pm

here's a fun valentine's day owl with a lovesick approach for candy!  it's a pillow box that's made from our die cut machine.  remember.. when you purchase your cardstock from our boutique you can use our machine for free and roll these cute little boxes out and decorate the owl with punches!

this cute square box holds a ghiradelli chocolate square.. it's held together with martha stewart cute edger! love it!  on the back side...

i punched out martha heart doiley punch.

this next bag is made with one 8.5 X 11 piece of cardstock and scored to make a cute bag.  i took another martha edger and edged the top section to keep with the valentine theme.

the next three pix are made with tootsie pop lolly's... i made flower with heart punches and put the lolly inside with the sentiment "sweetness".

here's another fun treat .. this one is my favorite.. i saved the best for last!!

these are my "bogart and bacall" lolly's.  when you stick the lolly in your mouth.. you can a 1920's mustache!  love it!  it's sooooo cute.  i found this idea on "pinterest" .. what i did was create my own and blew it up 250% to make it wild! 

here's my fun lips.. it's so hollywood!  here's a look side by side.

these would be great valentine projects for the classroom.  it would also be great lollys for your office.. or if you ever host an oscars party... or movie night... any kind of event.  we'll have all of the templates for you to take home and measurements of these projects when you take the class!  please call the store at 916 487 2737 if you are interested in this class.  by the way.. thank you to everyone who has come by our new boutique to see our new home!  we love it!!!!!  we hope you love our new store too!

Our new Pavilions location opening on January 2nd ~ 10am!

Please join us on Monday, January 2nd, 2012 for the opening of our new store location!  We love it!  It's a new look inside and out.  We did a complete makeover!

here's a look from the outside.
this is outside-- right...  thanks laurie for doing the beautiful windows and organizing the layout..it's perfect!

and this is the outside..left.

when you walk inside.. it's looks bigger from our last store.. but it's actually about the same size.. i think our high ceilings make a big difference! 

i always wanted chandeliers in my store.. so that was the first thing i purchased for this boutique.  the first location..it was a baby changing table.. but miles is now 6, so he definitely won't need one of those!

here's a look inside with a left side view.  the walls are now painted yellow.. and the ceilings eggshell.  when the contractors asked me.. and i mean.. literally.. said.. what color do you want your new boutique?  i pulled two cardstock colors from the memory box card line and gave them sunshine and eggshell.. and said.. here you go.. walls and ceiling.  and here you have it!

the new store is located in center court at the pavilions and we face madam butterfly and williams sonoma's flagship store.

 

so here are a few things to remember this month!  Julie Ebersole's classes will be January 20-21st and they will be at this new location.. so exciting!  please call the store at

916 487 2737 if you can make it to these classes.  you will love her classes!

and We have a big sale area for our new location.. and all A Muse art stamps and 4-bar notecard sets are 50% off!  it's a big section and you will see so many card samples  Get them while we have them.. yes.. 50% off!
