Rudolph Gift Tag Holder

My dowline Sue came over this morning...we just made this cute gift card holder...originally it was a box, but we wanted it made into a gift card holder...Isn't Rudolph cute with his little button horns and shiny red nose! Easy peasy to make....Credit on the original Rudolph box goes to Wunsapona Time...you can find the tutorial on U-Tube....Have fun with him! We did!

My Wonderful Wall Decor Project....

Hi Everyone;
I Finally finished this idea I had brewing in my head...It really didn't take long to do, but with all of my interruptions from work, kids, and family...it did take longer than expected to get it onto the wall of my living room!
I've had this antique frame for as long as I can remember...I knew someday I would do something great with it...it has hung in my shop garage all these years! The kids never destroyed it-that is amazing that they didn't use it for a basketball hoop or something... My inspiration for this project came from page 112 of our Stampin up main catalog...it featured a card that said "Create Everyday"  My Sassy Scrappers group meets monthly at my house and I thought wouldn't that be a great saying for them to see.  So the wheels started turning in my head...I could make tags, decorate them with our wonderful Designer Series Paper..in this case I used one of my favorite now finds: Spice Cake! My down line Sue and Shannon just love this paper also.  I then decorated a few of the tags with embellishments after applying the letters to the tags.  Our new Mini Clothespins were a wonderful addition....then I can change my tags to go with the season's! Next I am going to use the fantastic Designer Series Paper entitled: Pick Your Poison...I can't wait to dress up those tags with some "Howl-O-Ween Creeps"....I'm going to have a creepy good time!
I've also posted some of the projects my gals made on Friday at our club meet...I would like to thank Sandi MacIver for the inspiration of one of the cards....The other inspiration came from a swap I received at Convention in Utah: Susan Schemp...enjoy todays post...
At the farm we are going to see what Hurricane Irene brings us tomorrow...Lets pray my corn stays standing with the wind....
Take care and happy Stampin!

I love the character of my antique frame....

Mini Clothespins makes this easy to change out for the seasons

Goes great with my wall color...

Don't Fall Over...I'm Posting Again!

Hi Everyone...
I guess Convention must have really inspired me to create...Here are some more projects I have worked on today!  I love this "shopping bag" that I do...so I also have really liked working with the stamp set received at Convention called..."Easy Events".....It is just as the title says....Easy!!!! So I thought I would make four note cards to go into the shopping bag...such a WOW gift for someone...who can't use cards and the shopping bag is an added bonus for the recipient!
Next is a project from a DVD I purchased at Convention...I've already done a few projects so I am getting my monies worth from this expense...Today I made an ornament...This workshop WOW presenter was Heather Summers...She is fantastic! I used the new Holiday Designer Series paper titled: Letters To Santa...it is in the new Holiday Mini that goes live Sept. 1st....I just got a bunch of those Mini's in...If you'd like to see one just let me know! Its never too early to get a jump on holiday gift giving ideas....Then you have more time to enjoy yourself during the actual holiday shopping period!
Also included in todays portfolio is a copy of a convention swap I received from Cindy Viering...A birthday card purse... Simple....couldn't you see a little girl receiving this cute card/purse! Adorable...

WOW...Two posts in one day!

Guess that means I am able to have some time to stamp! I saw this on Stampin Connection(old postings) and decided I wanted a box for gift tags....this fit the bill! It was super easy to create...I also had lots of fun making these tags (compliments once again from our Make & Takes at Convention) What a lovely gift giving idea...who can't use tags...
Enjoy once again...
