I've Been Busy!

Finally! I have enough to post about. I can't seem to keep my own blog updated these days, so this one has really suffered. Thanks to Tammy, our very few fans have had something to check out. But with these last few days of bad weather, I have stayed curled up at home and have actually had a few moments to sit down and do some crafting. I still have a ton of projects I want to do for the holidays, so I'm hoping I still have a few more blogs to come.

I love these little Santas! There is a mint patty in the middle of it. And the beard flips up so you can write a message or use them as place cards for table settings. I think they are ADORABLE!

I saw these done and had to have a try at them. I got the little hand sanitizers from Bath and Body and make a cute box for them. They will make great little stocking stuffers!

How cute are these cards?? They were so simple to make, but I just love them!

And as usual, I had to do some candy wrappers for Christmas. The tags turned out pretty cute and I think they are just a lot of fun!

I did these for fun not sure how they would turn out. But they are pretty cute as well. It's amazing what a little designer paper around chocolates can do!

Most of these projects are for the boutique. I'm trying to get ahead of the game so that I can keep my shelves stocked for the holidays. Plus there are just so many cute ideas out there for Christmas. It's hard not to try all of them. Well, I hope you enjoyed my post. And I hope I'll be back with more soon!

Fun with a Kleenex Box

I saw this online and just loved the idea so i got busy over the weekend making these fun covers for Kleenex boxes. I think they would make fun Neighbor gifts. I just love the saying "Bless you this holiday Sneezin'." mandi and I have to come up with a couple of project for a younger group of girls to make for their moms for Christmas gifts and I think this is one I'll be showing. I am also thinkin about demonstrating these at our next class. How Fun!!!

Again Thanks for stopping by!!

Stamp Camp

Mandi and I are sad to say that we will not be able to have the Christmas Stamp Camp as earlier posted on our blog. Some things have come up for the both of us and we are not going to be able to go through with it. But as always thanks for checking our blog out and please keep returning cause we are still posting our stuff we make for our classes and the boutique!

Time for Christmas?? What??

Well I have been trying to avoid it, but it has caught up to me. What it is you ask? Christmas items for the boutique. I came home from work today anxious to get started, so I sat down at my computor and searched and searched for some fun ideas. I knew I wanted to do some Christmas tags but I wanted to put them in something fun. So I was searching when I came across this cute idea. I was so excited cuz I bought these tins from stampin up pretty cheap and I have quite a few and I really wanted to use them. So I got to work and this is how mine turned out.

This is the front of the tin. Using this cute designer paper from S.U.


And this is the inside with the cute tags!

I have some more ideas using some candles, and using the Matchbox die that I will be making sometime this weekend so I'll post more later.
Thanks for stopping by.

"Turkeys" Wanted

I was online about a week ago and came across these cute turkey made with the Treat Cups from Stampin' Up, so I made some and took 15 of them to the boutique around 12:30 last Tuesday, by 5:30 that evening I recieved an email saying they were out of the turkeys and they wanted some more. So I got busy making some more and by Wednesday I took 20 more in. Well I recieved another email on Thursday informing me they were down to 3 left and again needed some more. So I spent today making 20 more to take down on Tuesday. Here is a picture of these cute little Turkeys.

Refreshments will be served and we will have some fun giveaways as well! Please join us for a fun morning out with some wonderful friends! See below for the card and projects we will be doing at our camp...

Our first project listed here are the luminaries. I have made 3 styles and you can choose the two you would like to do. There may even be a few other design options for you.







I will provide a LED light for each luminary you do. I really couldn't get a picture that could do these justice while lit up in the dark. But I can tell you that they look pretty amazing!

Next on our list of projects are these adorable boxes. Using the new Halloween designer paper and stamp sets, this box is perfect for favors at a Halloween party or a gift for a friend.




And for our last project, we will be using the new candy wrapper die cut from our new mini catalog. This is a MUST HAVE if you own a Big Shot machine. Whether using regular paper, designer paper or dressing it up to look like a bat, there are plenty of uses for this fun project.




We will get the card posted later so you can see what it looks like. But let us know by this Saturday if you would like to attend the camp. We want to make sure we have enough projects for everyone attending. So leave a comment, call or email if you would like to attend! And, as always.... Thanks for stopping by!!

Birthday Cards.

I had a friend come over this morning and ask me if she could buy some birthday cards from me and of course I said absolutely!!! So I came into my craft room to look through my mountain of a pile of cards, just to find out I didn't have any. WHAT???? Are you serious???? So I sat down before church and made these!




Thanks for stopping by!!
Tammy

I was asked to make some cards that you can use for anything. I really didn't think it would be that hard, but I am the type of person that has to have a saying on the card so I tried real hard but as you can see I couldn't do it with both of the cards. Oh well....

Thanks for stopping by.

Happy Wednesday

Well I have been busy today. I was asked by the boutique to get some more BYU, Utah stuff made, so I did some more book marks and then I did these...

They are BYU, UTAH Ornaments. I think they turned out pretty cute. I mean who wouldn't want these hangin around? Well the BYU ones anyway. HE HE HE. Just kidding!!!
Then I thought about all the baby stuff that I have in a drawer for diaper cakes and I also came across these cute little containers from Micheals so I put the two together and came up with these. One for a boy and one for a girl!
Then I thought to myself well Halloween is right around the corner so why don't I use up the rest of my little Jars so I took the Retired Stampin up Halloween Rub Ons from last year and and some Halloween candy (yes the stores have Halloween candy out already)and made cute little candy jars!

And then put them in a bag and there you go! Aren't they just cute and festive?
Well that's it for tonight. Thanks for stopping by.

Owl Bookmarks

So this morning after my walk I remembered that I needed to make some owl book marks for our give away at tonights class so I made these and I made some others also but I thought how fun it would be to dress them up sporting our local University's. Well I am off to get ready for our class. Hopefully we will take some pics of tonights class and I can post them tomorrow!

Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Monday!

I got home from work today, and got right to work on a couple of projects that I have wanted to do. The first project is some Jars i did using last years Halloween rub ons from Stampin' Up. I am purchasing the new Halloween rub ons from stampin up this week, can't wait to get them anfd start using them.


They look even better with candy!

This is a paint pail I purchased from a local craft store and again used the Halloween Rub On's, filled it with some yummy treats and I will be giving this to my friend who will be hosting a class tomorrow night!

And last but not least I saw this card online and totally loved it. This is one of my favorite sets to use. I did add my own touch to it, I added the ribbon with the brad and the saying is from the new Hostess set.

Well that's it for today, Thanks for stopping by!

Cards

I got up this morning and had some time to kill before work so I decided to make a couple of cards. I came up with these! They are pretty simple 3x3 cards but exactly what you need when the occassion arises. I love the new designer paper on the Birthday cards! So much fun.


Thanks for stopping by!!
