Thanks to Beth Silaika of
Freckled Fun Designs for the
new banner! Working with Beth on
the design was an interactive
process that Beth makes so easy!
If you are looking to get a
banner or watermark designed I
would highly recommend her. I
hope you enjoy the new look!
Time Well Spent
Stampin Up sent all of the demos a
free stamp set. Who doesn't love
free rubber? Especially if it is as
cute as this set. It is from the new
catalog coming out in January and is
a Level 3 Hostess Gift. It is called
Time Well Spent and I just
love it! I played with it all one
day a couple of days ago. So now you
know why I haven't posted much, I
have been too busy playing.....
Behind the card is card carrier with
handles that contains 3 other cards
made with the set and envelopes.
Hope you enjoy the sneak peak of
what is to come. In December, demos
get to pre-order some of the new
products so watch and see what else
in coming in January.
Order anytime and your order will
ship directly to your home by
Stamping Up. You can view the
current catalog by clicking on the
Online Catalog button to the right.

Busy, Busy, Busy!
Sorry for the long delay
in posting but I have been extremely busy. I
do have several projects to share with you.
I was waiting for the weather to be sunny to
take photos but looking at the weather
report I don't think is happening soon.
I was playing with the
free Level 3 stamp set that Stampin Up sent
all of the demos and had the best time with
it. I did 4 cards and a holder for all of
them for a demo hostess group that starts
the first of the year. I've also made a
bunch of cute candy bar snowmen to give out
at my book club later in the month. For once
I am done way ahead of time. I also made a
box for reindeer noses. What's that you say?
The candies are a sour
cherry candy that my husband loves. I can
only find them at Home Goods, I'm sure they
are available other places, I just don't
know about it. The Reindeer Label was made
on the computer. The tag, saying and tree
were made using the Punch Pals Stamp set.
The papers used were from Stampin Up!
Aren't these cute? They
are just big enough to hold a snack size
candy bar. You need a 3 x 3 1/2 inch of
white cardstock. You also there punches:
square punch, corner rounder punch, flower
punch and a circle punch. The other supplies
needed are pixie pink ink, daubers, ribbon,
rhinestones and a white pen. Buy any SU
punch from me this month and I will send you
detailed directions on how to make these.
Mini Holiday Catalog
Don't
forget that there are only a few more weeks to
order from this catalog. If there is something
you've been wanting, don't let the time go by.
Contact me if there is something you'd like to
order. Thanks!
Christmas Candy Tin
I made this the
other night. It started with the bow made of
Evergreen DP and silver bells made out of some
scraps I had in my scrap box. After I got the bow
done I decided why not cover a tin to match. Again I
used Evergreen DP over a gold tin. A few days before
I had made a few tags and it just happened to be
stamped and embossed in Artichoke. It all came
together quite easily for something I hadn't planned
to make when I started. I love those kinds of
projects, plus I have a cute tin now made for candy
or cookies.
I used the
crimper on the bow to make a few tassels for it.
They were glued in the bow. I'm going to be making a
few more of these. There is also a ribbon around the
rim on the top which does not show up in this
picture.
If you have
some old tins sitting around this would be a perfect
way to decorate them. You could spray paint them
first if they have a design on them.
Horses and Flowers
I have a special
young lady in my life who loves horses. She has from the
time she born I think. She turned 7 yesterday and wanted
a horse cake with flowers. I sat down to do her card
with the Wanted Stamp set that I ordered because of her
to make her card. Luckily in my paper stash I had some
retired Paper Flowers For You Designer Paper. Here's the
picture of the card. Now I haven't seen a purely
pomegranate horse before but it worked on this card.
Happy Birthday Tori!
6 x 6 Winter Bright Recipe Page
I made a bunch of these
recipe pages using the Winter Bright Scrapbook package along
with about a dozen cards. I was trying to see how much of
the kit I would use. So far, I've used less than half, maybe
a third. I also still have lots of the accessory pieces that
come with it.
This is my favorite
peanut brittle recipe, I've made it for more than 30 years.
You'll find the recipe
here.
Here is how I did this
page. I cut a 6 x 6 piece of background paper from the kit.
The textured green CS is 4 3/8 x 4 3/8. The red is 4 1/8 x 4
1/8. The white with the recipe on it was printed on my laser
printer and then cut out to be 3 3/4 x 3 3/4. Your
measurements will depend on your recipe. If I can ever get
the PDF software I bought to work on my computer I will post
my peanut brittle recipe formatted here.
Then I stamped the tree
from the Season of Joy stamp set from the holiday mini
catalog. I embossed it with clear, cut it out and decorated
it with colored rhinestones.
The Merry Christmas and stars are from the
kit also.
The colors are not as good as they should be in the picture
but it was the best I could get. This is a very cute page
when you see it in my book.
