Are you nuts about stamping? I definitely am! And it’s easy to go nuts with the Nuts about Squirrels stamp set.
This set features two cheeky squirrels that will look adorable scampering across any of your projects. Create a scene using the acorns, leaves, and tree branch. Mix and match the greetings with the images to create cards for birthdays, get well, and thinking of you. Use the Two-Step pieces to add color to your squirrel, add texture to your leaf, or to create a multicolored acorn. Or if you’re feeling especially artistic, you can color the squirrels using your favorite coloring techniques. No matter where you live in the world, you can customize these critters to match the fauna outside your house. Red, gray, brown—these creatures are just plain cute no matter their color.
Hello everyone! I have a super easy and really fun treat holder idea today. I will be using my Nuts about Squirrels stamp set but you can change the paper and stamp set to match any occasion that you want.
For my holder itself, I chose the Boughs of Holly designer series paper, as one of the patterns would work well:

What a sweet little card. I like how you used the green with the trees in the background.
