  • Santa Box

    Over the past couple of months we've been stamping Christmas Projects at our Team Meetings. I've been saving them up to share with you all. Now that the holidays are getting close I can start sharing…

    First up is this TOO CUTE Santa Box that Debbie shared with us at the meeting

    IMG_0510 

    This box was created with 5 square chipboard coasters. We covered four of them with Real Red card stock. The front of the box was covered with Blush Blossom card stock. Then we punched and cut to create the face for Santa.

    Debbie found the template to create the Santa Box along with lots of other fun boxes on SplitcoastStampers – Click Here for the template.

    Some of my favorite Stampin' Up! Punches are on sale this week – Don't forget to Visit my Stampin' Up! Store to check out the discounts.

  • Joy

    A couple of months ago at our Team Meeting we swapped 3-d Gift type items for Christmas at our meeting. I created this Joy Door Hanger and I've been meaning to get a photo of it so I could put it up to share with all of you. I finally did…

    IMG_0473

    I cut card stock covered Chipboard using the Scallop Square Die for the base of each letter. The J and Y were die cut from card stock and then brushed with the Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint to give them some sparkle. The O was created using the wreath from Berry Christmas.

    It's a very quick and simple Wow Gift. You can find all the supplies used on this project in my Stampin' Up! Store Online – Shop Now.

  • Bags and Tags Everywhere!

    My annual Christmas Card Workshop was held this past weekend! It's my favorite event every year. I have so much fun working with my other team members to make the Christmas Event special each year.

    My house always looks so festive when I'm getting ready for the classes – putting the kits and bags together. I though you might like a to take a look inside the mess!! 🙂

    IMG_0239

    I took over my brother's computer table – just one of many surfaces I took over while getting ready for the class! All the Bags are lined up waiting to be filled.

    IMG_0241

    Stacks of card kits piled along the table in front of the bags,

    IMG_0245

    and Christmas Tree Tags waiting to be attached to the bags.

    IMG_0238

    and on the very corner of the table (look at the bottom left) are the Name Tags on top of the Instruction Books, which are waiting to be bound together.

    Hope everyone had as much fun this year at the class as I did! If you're not signed up for my newsletter be sure to subscribe (there's a box at the top left of this page) so you'll know about all my upcoming classes and events!

  • Stamp Camp and Crop Postcards with My Digital Studio

    It's that time of year again. The time of year when I start booking my locations and filling my calendar with next year's Monthly Stamp Camps and Crops! 🙂 As most of you know I like to hand out postcards with the dates on them. This year I was SO excited to have Stampin' Up!'s new My Digital Studio to play with. Instead of using a simple generic design I was able to create postcards that scream Stampin' Up! 🙂 LOVE IT!!

    StampCamp2009JulieEdmonds

    For the Stamp Camp dates card I took my inspiration from the Sunny Day Designer Kit in the program.

    StampCrop2009JulieEdmonds

    For the Crop card I used paper and elements from the Summer Home Designer Kit.

    Both of those kits along with SO MUCH MORE are included with the software, which you can purchase by contacting me or shopping at my Stampin' Up! Online Store.

    I'll be handing the cards out at next month's events!

  • Matchbox Wedding Favors

    My cousin's Wedding Reception was last night. It was Tons of fun and the Room looked GREAT! We created matchbox wedding favors to coordinate with her Wedding Announcement.

    IMG_0339 

    The boxes and Vanilla tags on top all came from Stampin' Up!'s Matchbox Die. We embossed the "B" in Gold. They went together very quickly and easily!

    IMG_0341 

    I love how the embossed Gold letter really pops against the Black and Red! The matchbox die is one of my favorite boxes. You can create cute favors and gifts for just about any occasion. Holidays, Showers, and More.

    Visit my online store to purchase the Matchbox die or any of the other GREAT Sizzix Dies available from Stampin' Up!

  • Halloween Goodies

    October's almost here – One of my favorite months of the year. There is an unending supply of fun and fabulous ways to "spooky up" little candy! We've been sharing a few ideas at our team meetings…

    A couple of meetings ago Crista shared this Pumpkin Box…

    IMG_0245

    Crista had a template printed out for each of us to crate the box. We sponged a little to create some dimension on the pumpkin face and then Stamped the face and leaves using the Autumn Harvest Stamp Set. The tag came from a retired set.

    This month at our team meeting Barb and I each had a Halloween project to share. Barb made a cute pop-up surprise candy bar wrapper…

    IMG_0252

    You simply punch a hole through both layers of card stock at the top of your candy bar wrapper, feed the ribbon through both holes, and then slide your candy bar into the wrapper pushing the ribbon down. Tie a bow to finish it off and then you can pull the bow up to make the candy bar appear. The kiddos LOVE this one!

    and I shared a project featuring the new Sweet Treat Cups in the Holiday Mini…

    IMG_0259

    I used the Sweet Centers Stamp Set, punched a hole for the treat cup and then filled it with spooky green M&Ms. At the meeting we used Candy Corn. You can fill them cups with SO many things!

    If you want more fun Halloween Candy ideas don't miss the Stamp Camp this Saturday - e-mail me for more details or to RSVP.
