Valentine Treat Boxes by Laurel


Welcome to day #5 of Valentine's week here on the SRM Blog.  Hope you have enjoyed all the inspiration! 

Today Laurel Seabrook has used SRM's Rectangle clear containers as holders for Valentine treats.  YUM!  She's decorated them with SRM's Valentine Say it with Stickers and Labels by the Dozen and topped them off with Charcoal Twinery Twine

Laurel cut 4 panels of cardstock to fit inside the rectangular container that measures 2 1/2 x 3 1/2.  By cutting single panels, there is no need to score and they simply slide down inside the box.  So easy!  Laurel then adhered some SRM stickers to fancy up the front panel and slipped it inside and filled the container with some sweet treats.  So quick and easy.

Laurel then adhered a SRM Valentine Labels by the Dozen sticker to a scrap of card stock, trimmed it and tied it onto the container with some twine.

Valentine Mini Cards by Michelle


Welcome to day #4 of Valentine's Week here on the SRM Blog. 

Michelle Giraud has created some super simple mini Valentine cards with a center gate fold and a band to hold it together.  The cards measure 3 x 3.  Using a 3 x 6 sheet of paper, Michelle scored at 1.5 and 4.5 to fold into the center.

Inside the card there's a Valentine sentiment and heart sticker from the SRM Stickers by the Dozen Valentine sheet.

Michelle added SRM Valentine Border stickers along the bottom of the cards.  These can be snipped in half when cutting open the cards.

Michelle loved this idea so much she created another set of cards but this time a little bigger.  These cards measure 3 x 4 1/4.  Michelle scored these with her Scorepal which already has the markings for this size gate fold.  How handy!

Michelle used up a sheet of 6 x 6 paper from Basic Grey to decor the from of this car and then added the embellishment band with the "Hugs" sticker on the front. That sticker is from SRM's Labels by the Dozen Valentine sheet.  The inside is decorated with stickers from the Valentine Stickers by the Dozen sheet.

Valentine Treats by Lesley

Welcome to day #3 of Valentine week here on the SRM Blog.  Our design team has given us so much inspiration this week and today Lesley Croghan creates a pair of Valentine treats that are sure to please! 

Using SRM's Stickers by the Dozen Valentine, Lesley created this mini card.  I love the two pieces of paper with a space between them to set off the fun and fabulous heart sticker mounted on a die cut circle.  And the touch of black Charcoal Baker's Twine is perfect!

Next Lesley took a small pillow box from SRM and decorated it with a band of patterned paper and layers of punched pieces with a clear SRM Stickers by the Dozen heart mounted on top.  I love the silver sequins inside.  So fun and festive!

What an adorable pair for your Valentine.  With the Stickers by the Dozen you could make 6 more of these sets.  They make the perfect teacher gift or something special for a co-worker.

New Product Review


SRM has been introducing our new products this week. Today we give you a review of all new products.  Sit back, relax and enjoy!  


Our design is simply LOVING these new stickers that offer a combination of round stickers and matching borders.  The Take 2 stickers come in 4 designs:  Birthday, Baby, Graduation and Wedding.  These are all events that need multiples.  The stickers measure 12" x 6".  You'll love the longer borders!

Birthday toppers are great for invites, cards, cupcakes and containers!  You can use these sticker on layouts as well.  So much fun!

Perfect for Birthday parties, favors, invites and more!

SRM has a large selection of containers and now we add more.  This time the containers are in fabric! That's right!  Fabric bags!  How fun is that?  

We are doing Muslin bags in 3 sizes (3" x 5", 4" x 6 and 5" x 7").  You can stamp on them, stencil on them or decorate them with lace, ribbon, flowers, twine and even stickers!


See what Angi Barrs did using a muslin bag and some SRM Stickers!  So much fun!  Angi's such a sucker for muslin bags, I asked her to whip something up special!  Who knew that SRM's clear stickers would work so well on fabric?  Angi loved using this one decorated with stamps, stickers and twine at her Christmas celebration.


And SRM is offering Burlap bags in 2 sizes (3" x 5" and 5" x 7").  I love burlap and made a wedding favor using the 5 x 7 bag, some of SRM's new Take 2 Wedding stickers and a doily.  Easy peasy yet oh so pretty!  



I think we are going to have ourselves some FUN with these new fabric bags!



SRM is introducing 2 new clear containers and 1 new clear bag.
