Stamping with Merry & Type
I sat down yesterday with the Merry & Type stamp set to do a little creating. At first I was thinking along the lines of Christmas card classes but then I just went off and started having fun with whatever SU! products I wanted and as many as I wanted. I love days like that! It's not often I get to just sit down and create purely for the fun of it. Don't you just love this ornament? I had so much fun with this one! I'm not sure how well you can see, I did half the stripes in Garden Green and the other half in Cherry Cobbler with Gold Lame Pearlized Accent Ink for the fixings. The Continue reading
Christmas Advent Calendar Class
I'm excited to share this fun Christmas Advent calendar! This oh so cute calendar has been attracting attention anywhere it's seen! With its cute boxes for goodies and the warm fireplace, who can resist? Here's day 25. I'm so glad they chose to put the true meaning of Christmas on this stamp! Don't you love it? Here's a couple more of the boxes. I chose to use chipboard numbers on some of the boxes rather than the 25 & Counting stamp set for some variety. The chipboard you see pictured here is some retired chipboard. I can't wait for this class in November! At this point Continue reading

Thank you for stopping by today! I hope your week is off to a great start! Continue reading

Christmas Present – Stamped Bingo Game
When I allowed myself to talk myself into purchasing the Bingo Bits and Bingo Card stamp sets I promised we would put them to good use. So, we've used them at workshops, we've used them on cards and wrapping, we used them at the Christmas party and yesterday, I put them to more good use! My son's 1st grade class all stamped bingo cards and we played a grand game of Bingo together at their Christmas party! I've done pretty well at using the set, however, I decided it's always good to another good use out of them! So, instead of purchasing an item from the Dollar Tree for Micah gift to Continue reading
Holly Jolly Christmas Candle
We had such a fun time at the Christmas party last night! There was tons of yummy food, we played some games and did just a little bit of stamping. This is a candle we decorated. Doesn't it make a fun little Christmas decoration? You could easily burn this in your own home or give it as a gift! Continue reading
Cookie Cutter Christmas Decoration
Do you remember the cookie cutters I shared with you a little while back? I took a couple minutes yesterday to sit down with them, finally! As I mentioned before, I used the Deck the Halls DSP to cover the back of each of the cookie cutters. Using the Crop-A-Dile I punched a hole in the top of each cookie cutter and then I hung them from Organza ribbon. I have a decorative hanger hung in my house for Christmas that pictures cookies and pieces of fruit, it seemed like the perfect place to add some cute cookie cutters! One of you, my readers, taught me how to make large bows last year - Continue reading
Stampin' Up! Stamping Schedule – Stewartstown, PA
I had a little time to work on wrapping gifts yesterday. This is a little bag I made up using the Snow Swirled stamp set. I embossed snowflakes in gold onto Brushed Gold cardstock as well as a small white gift bag. With some snowflakes on the tissue paper using gold encore ink and just a little Organza ribbon, the gift bag is complete! Now for the goodies to go inside . . . Besides making this gift bag, I spent a good portion of my day yesterday preparing my Stewartstown, PA Stampin' Up Class Schedule for January through March 2011. We've got some great Stampin' Up! events coming up in Continue reading
A Project for the Guys to Make
We had so much fun at the Date Night last night! I wish more of you could have made it, it was just so much fun! We started with a lovely meal to which everyone contributed! The men chipped in incredibly with their homemade chili and cornbread and we had a wonderful salad and cookies and . . . yummy! Once our tummies were full we settled in to let the guys do a little creating! They made the tag you see above. They were encouraged to put this tag on their wives' Christmas gift and then save it to hang on the tree next year. What fun! I was very impressed with how well they created and Continue reading
