Giftables Class

I just had a class where we made some small gifts to give for Christmas. This loaf pan is a quarter of a regular loaf pan. We tied a ribbon around it and made a cute little tag for it. All my class attendees had to do was make some bread and bake it! What a fun gift to give to a teacher or neighbor or someone you want to give a little something.

 Stamps: Snow Much Fun, Tiny Tags

Cardstock: Marina Mist, Pink Pirouette, Whisper White

Ink: Black Stazon, Marina Mist, Pink Pirouette

Accessories: 2 3/8" scallop circle punch, 1 3/4" circle punch, Crop-a-dile

, Jewelry Tag punch, Pink Pirouette strip ribbon, Marina Mist 1/8" taffeta ribbon

Another little gift that we made was this notebook. I love having these notebooks around! They are so easy to carry with you and keep track of all those things that you need to know. We adhered Mocha Morning DSP to the cover of the notebook. Adhere the lace ribbon. Cut out some flowers and crunch them up. Smooth them out and adhere together with an Antique brad and onto the notebook. Stamp and punch the sentiment and Voila! You have a cute little gift that anyone can use!

Snowman Wiper

I received this card in a holiday card swap that I was in this fall. Angie Pegram created it. It was sitting on the counter with my other swaps and my club ladies really wanted to learn how to create this type of card and they wanted snowmen on it too! So I just CASEd this card from top to bottom! (In fact, I didn't even create one, I just used Angie's!)

Stamps: Snow Much Fun

Ink: Black Stazon, Indigo Island

Cardstock: Indigo Island, Riding Hood Red, Whisper White

Accessories: Northern Flurries die, Northern Flurry embossing folder, Rhinestones

Markers: Indigo Island, Riding Hood Red, Basic Black, Pool Party, Pumpkin Pie

This card was so easy to prepare for with the new Simply Scored tool! Don't have yours yet? You NEED to have this FANTASTIC tool! You can order one from my website HERE. 

Happy Stampin'!

September's Snowman

I had time last weekend to do a little stamping. Miriam, my second daughter who is 12, asked if she could pick out something for me since Abi always gets too! I told her I needed to do some Christmas cards so she picked out Snow Much Fun and Certainly Celery and Bashful Blue. Then I went to my binder that I keep all my sketch challenges and color challenges in to pick out a sketch. This is Stampin' Addicts sketch challenge number 66. I sat down with the stamps, ink and sketch and came up with this little cutie. Miriam was amazed that I was able to create this so quickly! I decided to use it as my cards for the Christmas card challenge and my September addition. Here's a group shot of all 16.

And now the close up.

Stamps: Snow Much Fun

Ink: Stazon Black, Basic Black, Certainly Celery, Bashful Blue. Crumb Cake, Peach Parfait

Cardstock: Certainly Celery, Bashful Blue, Basic Black, Whisper White

Accessories: Snowflake punch, Modern Label punch, silver brads,

1/16" handheld punch, aquapainter, sponge, dimensionals

I now have 144 Christmas cards made and ready to be mailed the first week of December! This coming from the person who usually gets the Christmas cards out a day or two before Christmas! I think I will have more cards than I need but that's OK too.

Oh! I almost forgot to tell you that we will be making this card at my Christmas Card class on Tuesday! Reserve your spot now!

Happy Stampin!
