First up is a skater card which I just love! SU’s silver cording worked perfectly for the laces. This stamp set is from Papertrey Ink.
Next is a 3D item; a treat bag using SU Buckaroo Blue and BoBunny Midnight Frost paper. This is filled with chocolate ... yum!
My last project is a tin filled with delicious herbal teas. There is nothing like a hot cup of tea in the winter to warm you up!

Three more fantastic projects from you, Donna ! You always add just the right little details - such as the silver cord lacing and bows on the skates, my favorite ! though it was difficult to choose, loved them all, thanks for sharing =)
Hi Donna! Oh each one of your projects is wonderful! I can hardly name a favorite but the gift bag with the chocolate inside would have to be the one I'd pick in a grab bag. Love your design and matching colors! Love the tea set too... a GREAT gift idea! Thanks for all the work you did to share with us on this hop and your basket is absolutely AMAZING! I have long drooled over Longaberger and this one is just fabulous!!! Thanks for the offering!
Donna, These all are very pretty and the choc. bag and tea tin,my favorite, are wonderful gift ideas.
Donna, these are such excellent gift ideas! You are very creative! TFS!!
Gorgeous gift ideas, I just love the tea time set, that cup is fabulous.
My fave is definitely the ice skater card! I love the silver cord you used!
Your projects are all delightful, but I have to say, that sweet tea tin is my favorite!
oh Donna! Your projects are all amazing! How can anyone pick a favorite??? And I just have to say (which I've posted before) I just love the music on your blog, it just is so soothing!
Thanks for sharing your amazing creativity!!! I will for sure be CASING!!!
Donna,
Love the projects, especially the skate card.
Will have to CASE your herbal tea kit. I have several friends who love tea and I also love it
Love the heart basket. (Hope I win it.)
Great job.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the tea tin. My granddaughter is studying Russian and I always include different teas when I mail her a box. Your tea tin project is next on my "to do" list. Thank you.
Hi Donna. Love the colour palette of your projects! My fave is the scalloped fold over chocolate bag, but I dearly love the skate card, too! Wonderful job all around!
Donna, your projects are fantastic! I love them all! I was so impressed with the silver cord on the skates - genius!
Donna, I love the tea tin it is my fav. The others are beatiful as well. my email is jsperman1@kc.rr.com
Gorgeous projects, love the tea tin, I'll need
to case that project
tfs
fab projects as always Donna...love the silver cord on the skates...and the bag it so nice...perfect for a little gift...and any tea lover would love that tin!
Perfect projects for this time of year ... hot tea and chocolate to keep you warm and happy after skating. Gorgeous Donna! My fav ... hmmm ... that is hard one. I love them all but your treat bag really jumps out at me ... maybe because there is chocolate inside.
Love your winter projects! they are wonderful! I have been eyeing that bo bunny paper too! Thanks for chance to win that incredible basket!!!!
Donna, Hi! I am not entering your blog candy, just wanted to lend my support as a fellow blogger...your projects are divine!! I love that you kept a blue theme and the last tea tin catches my eye! I may have to invest in those dies!! Wonderful job and great projects!!
Oh Donna, what terrific projects you have created for us to see this weekend - I love the soft blue hues of your projects - everything left me feeling so nostalgic :) I used to ice skate as a young girl and it brought back fond memories how you created such a stunning card showcasing the skates :) It's impossible to pick a favorite as your sweet tea creation is superb! (and not to mention your blog music - I have it clicked at the bottom as I continue the hop!) TSMFS - have a blessed weekend!
Donna I really like the treat sack the best! You could use it for so many gift ideas! And even to pick up someones spirits! Thanks Hon for shareing! Victoria Hanson victoriarv1962@hotmail.com
Your reindeer treat sack was great. The tea would make an awesome winter gift as well. TFS, Penny
What lovely winter projects. I really like the herbal tea gift box.
Your projects are great! I especially love the treat bag! It may look icy cold but it warms your heart! Thanks so much for the chance to win!
Donna, I'm back for the second time. Early this morning I left a comment but had a feeling it didn't post. Anyway I was telling you how much I love all three of your projects. The skates are adorable. The bag for chocolates is yummy. And I want to case the tin for tea. I hope you don't mind. Blog hopping with you has been fun.
So cute. Thank you for sharing.
Are you kidding me? Stamping and Longaberger together?! Awesome! I am loving the cards and two other projects - the reindeer is one of my favorite! The sweetheart basket is super cute too! I still love the small square one from 02 I believe!
Well, all your projects are beautiful! I think I like the Tea Tin best. I have a few Tea friends that the tin would be perfect for! Thanks!
Wonderful projects, Donna! I really love the skating card :)
Wow! Gorgeous projects! The ice skate card is awesome and the laced up boots are a stunning accent. Love it! :)
OMG Donna! All your projects are FANTASTIC! I just love your blog and can't believe you are raffling a Longaberger basket - Amanda
I LOVE the shimmery shades of blue and silver! What a fun way to warm someone's heart in the middle of winter!
Love the frosty look of your cards with your choise of colours and embellishment. Skating here is such an alien idea (we'd only have a handful of ice rinks in the whole country) and something we'd only see in the movies or olympics maybe. Fun card. What I like the best about the second project is the deer stamped in open space. Really makes it look like there is lots and lots of snow. The project I like the best is your winter warmer, the tea gift. Lovely labeling and the embossed teacup is beautiful.
I keep meaning to make one of those little tins and never have. I like the bag with the deer, it looks fabulous on all that white space. Nice job, and great inspiration! Thanks for sharing.
Fabulous projects, Donna! Love all the designs, papers and colors! Beautifully done!
Such wonderful projects, so soft and pretty.
Love them all!!!!!
Tfs:)
Love your blog. Love the nice music also. I'm loving the projects here, anything with tea is a good thing and I might have to make some for fellow tea-drinkers in my life. Enjoy.
