UPDATE!

We have changed the date of our stamp camp. Instead of this coming Saturday, we have postponed it to December 5th. We apologize if this change is an inconvenience to anyone, but we feel that we will be a little more prepared if we wait a few more weeks. Please let us know if you are interested in coming. Thank you so much!

November Stamp Camp Projects

And here they are! We are so excited about this Christmas season. There were so many projects to choose from, it was very hard to narrow it down to six. I hope you enjoy these projects and as always, we would LOVE to hear your comments and suggestions.
We will stamp images directly onto a glass plate, using one of the Christmas Stampin' Up! sets. These plates are dishwasher safe and will be etched on the back, so you can still eat off of them. Perfect for setting cookies out for Santa!



This cute little bag was made with one of the Stampin' Up! die cuts and the Big Shot. Decorated with beautiful snowflakes, and filled with Hershey kisses. A perfect little gift for anyone in your life!




This elegant card is made with one of the stamp sets in the latest mini catalog. The ornament set comes with a matching punch, making this card incredibly easy to make!





A set of 4 mini cards perfect for attaching to neighbor gifts or small gifts to hand out around the office. A simple, yet cute layout using some of our adorable Christmas designer paper.



This is such a neat project. Using candles, tissue paper, stamps, wax paper and a little heat... you can personalize candles to your own liking.





The Star Box. This is a fun, easy project that will be perfect to hold fun little gifts. Included with this one will be a bundle of candy canes coming out the top.







Well here they all are!!! Please leave any comments you may have. And if there are some projects that you would like to make several of (ie. 5 star boxes), we will be happy to have the supplies there for you to make them if we are notified ahead of time. We will post all the information about the Stamp Camp in just a few days, but just so you have a date and time, the camp will be held on November 21st from 11:00-3:00. Those who may want extra time or a little 1 on 1 help can come at 10:00.
We will see you all soon!!!

Halloween Stamp Camp

Well, we finally got together today and finished all of the projects that we will be doing for our stamp camp! We hope you all are as excited as we are about these fun projects. We've decided that this stamp camp will center around Halloween since there are so many cute, new products through Stampin' Up! to use (and the fact that this is one of my favorite holidays). :) So here are the six projects we will be doing at our stamp camp on Sept. 26th.


All of our projects

The 1st of two cards. This one is the "Eek card". The circle that you see on top actually slides out so the candy will come out on the other side of the card. Very fun!

Our pixy stix project. Fun colors!





I'm calling this "the York bag". This fun bag is made with the Big Shot die cut machine and we're filling it with decorated York patties.


The Matchboxes are my favorite (and I didn't even make them)! We have Frankenstein and Mummy matchboxes filled with a special treat inside. I love these guys!






This fun little pillow box has been made into a pencil holder/anything holder. I meant to get Halloween pencils before taking the picture, but didn't. But the box is still fun and versatile.




And our last card "The Slider Card" is so much fun. We used a fun little technique that allows the pumpkin to spin and slide from one end of the card to the other.



And here they all are again together.


All supplies will be provided, however if you'd like to bring your own snail tape and/or scissors, that would be fine. Any candy, pencils, etc. will also be provided. We are thrilled to be having our first camp and really hope you will join us. We will be sending fliers out soon and I will be posting one on here soon too. If you do not get a flier, but would like to come, please leave a comment here so we are sure to include you. And feel free to leave any comments or suggestions here as well.
Thanks!

Introduction

Hi there! We are Mandi Wood, Tammy Nielsen and Kaylene Nielsen. We are all best friends with a bit of a crafty side to us. Although we have been involved in crafts for a while, recently Tammy and I (Mandi) decided to take it to the next step and start doing some stamping classes and camps. We are both demonstrators for Stampin' Up! and love their products. Kaylene is a huge support to us and helps us out with her amazing ideas and creative abilities. We are excited for our first stamping camp in September. Our hope is not only to create beautiful cards, but incorporate fun projects into our classes and camps. Stay tuned for more information about our September camp which will be featuring cards and projects for Halloween and Thanksgiving. We're going to have a lot of fun and hope you will want to join in with us!
