I’m very excited to be presenting my 100th YouTube Video Tutorial!! WAHOO!! This Batman Chocolate Matchbox treat holder was inspired by one of my favorite roller coasters…Batman The Dark Knight. Originally, I’d made the blue box and matching card.  Was stamping with the kids and friends, and my friend Shayna designed the black box with the spotlight and we just about flipped out over it.  That become the new winner of the 100th Video, and it tops the stinkin’ cute-o-meter!

A quick and easy project for the Batman fan in your life, using my favorite new punch the Bat Punch and the Matchbox die for the Big Shot. As you’ll see, not only is the box fun, I had a blast making this video, from my son’s Batman mood ring to some special effects (including my own Batman sound effects for the big shot hehehe).

Come celebrate with me!! This Labor Day weekend I will be releasing my 100th YouTube video!!! Stay tuned for that. This month also marks my 7 year anniversary with Stampin’ Up AND my 40th birthday!!

100 Videos, 40 years old and 7 years of Stampin Up is all reason to party!! So from now through Monday, I’m offering FREE SHIPPING on all orders over $50!!
