Yum!

One of our Stamp Club girls (hi, Karen!) made and gave out these beautifully wrapped candy bars as her project for stamp club this month!  Each month I give the girls a challenge that they can choose to participate in, and then I draw a winner to receive a prize.  This month I told them [...]

November Stamp Club projects

I’m sorry it’s taken me so long to post anything decent of late.  Ha!  That sounds gratuitous – like I think these projects are decent - which they are - but I really mean anything at all.  I’m attempting to make up for it today by showing you 3 projects. 
It’s unusual for me to do only cards for stamp club.  [...]

Thumbs up, or down?

I tried to make this little reindeer look like he’s peering around the tree, but not sure if it looks like that, or that I’m trying too hard to get you to believe it.  Tell me what you think.  Click photo for a larger view.
I used the Christmas Cocoa paper as the background, embossed the [...]

And the winner is…

Eliza!  I put all the names on pieces of paper, folded them up and had my son pick one – since I had entries from 2 different posts, I thought picking the winner the old-fashioned way was the easiest to figure out.  Thank you all so much for your comments and suggestions!  Tomorrow night we’ll [...]

Practically free

This bag, that is!  I was asked to make and teach a class for our annual craft night at church that would be free for those coming.  I immediately thought of using the Fancy Favor die to make a quick little gift bag.  I made my sample from retired SU! Christmas paper, used brads to put [...]

My Christmas Card Swap

For the first time I finished my swaps (for a local swap) over a week before we meet – yea!!  I decided to use retired paper and ribbon for my project.  I have so much of it and it does me no good to just hoard it.  So that’s why you see several different Kiwi Kiss patterned [...]

Not too crazy about the card…

…but I LOVE my new blog banner!  I took a bunch of photos this week of my many Japanese Maple trees.  This one just happened to be perfect to fit on my banner.  Good thing I took the pics when I did, because after the winds we had yesterday, there are virtually no leaves left!
I just [...]

Just a little gift

I had to make several gifts for special people, so I made this set of 4 3″x3″ notecards in a little gift box.  (Click photo for a larger view.)  I used the adorable and sweet, Great Friend stamp set, and made a box using the Scallop Envelope die.  The directions can be found on Kristin’s blog [...]

Another Sweet Treat Cup card

 
I got the idea to make the Sweet Treat cup into a sunflower from my upline, but I made my petals with the Pick a Petal stamp set, since I don’t have the Sweet Centers stamp set.  It was not the easiest card to make, but I really like it.  Like the last card, I embossed [...]

Stamp Club projects for October

It was all about Fall this month for stamp club.  First we made this card, which I pretty much CASEd from this one.  I like my scallops to be on the top of the card, too – so after making the card with the fold at the top, I covered it with a full scallop [...]
