Trendy Valentine sneak peeks

I just loved creating this trendy Valentine goodie bag using the Perfect Pennants stamp set. I knew I wanted it simple but lots of texture and layers. What? Is there such a thing? Yes this is it! It is also economical because you can create several with little materials. I am currently working on a video to show you exactly how to make this but am giggling with delight with the finished product. I just couldn’t wait sharing a few little peeks with you today.

Perfect Pennants

I just love polka dots & the Fresh Prints Designer Series Paper Pack!(132996)

An assortment of Holiday projects

I am sharing a video that has a preview of 10 assorted holiday projects. I  learned about Google Hangouts a while ago but didn’t have time to figure it all out.. My upline asked me to participate in a Google Hangout with her and a few other side-line demonstrators. I thought I would share the video with you. I want you to remember this is our first try, but be warned, not our last!

I have been thinking of bringing classes to you through Google Hangout so I thought I would give it a try. We all are learning about this great way to share with our customers. I am posting the video here for you to watch and learn about at least 10 more holiday projects that you can make.


Here’s a look at my projects. Enjoy!
Ghiradelli treat Holder

I shared this project with all of you last week and you have loved it! Many of you have said you have enjoyed creating your own. I would love for you to send me a picture of yours and I will take a day and share them with everyone here. I will then pull a name from all those who share. The winnerr will receive a special gift from me.

You will find the video on how to make the Ghiradelli treat holder here.

You will find the Ghiradelli Treat Holder pattern here.

 
Here are pictures of the Gift Card Holders I shared:

NEW weekly deals!!!

I promised to put this Holiday Treat Holder pattern up for you yesterday but I didn’t like the way it was showing up. I didn’t realize how hard it was to get a white pattern to show up! After many attempts I finally got a good one for you to see. As I said in this video you will be able to cut 4 holders from 1 piece of 8 1/2″ x 11″  card stock so I know you will be cranking these out in no time!

Looking for a versatile treat holder for the holiday? This is a quick and cute one that can be filled with a variety of treats. I filled it with Ghiradelli Peppermint squares but you can adjust the little pocket to fit many different items. I made a video to show you how to create it. You will notice that I mentioned I would put the pattern up here but I couldn’t get it to show up correctly. I will work on re taking the picture and post tomorrow morning. I will put a link here in case you are reading this later than I posted this so you can find it easier, (dang, I still am working on my technical skills!)

7 Days of Christmas day #6- Washi Tape

 

Today’s card was inspired by a demo on Stampers Showcase. ( his is an exclusive gallery for Stampin’ Up! demonstrators only).

When I saw  Diane Hester’s card I knew I had to give it a try but of coarse I had to make a few changes.

Washi Tape Christmas cardOur Season of Style Washi tape co ordinates so well with the Season of Style Designer Series Paper so I just had to make a bow out of the Designer paper. The bow is created using the Large Oval Punch and is so easy. In fact, this card only took a few minutes to create from start to finish. This is one layout that I made several cards of to share with those I meet this holiday season.

7 days of Christmas day #5

You can change the look of this day #5 project just by switching out the verse with a different one or to an image instead!

Christmas Messages quick card

 

 

With this quick layout you could literally create up to 154 holiday cards with one package of the Season of Style Designer Series Paper(DSP). Now that’s a real money & time saver! You would just cut your DSP to measure 11″x 12″, then cut it into 12, 1″ strips.Now cut each of these into 3, 4″ strips. Clip the ends to form the “tail” and mix& match the designs as you wish.

 

Stick with me now.. You will have 39 pieces from each piece of DSP. That is enough DSP strips for 13 cards, you get 12 sheets so a total of  154 cards are possible!!! WOWSERS!!!!!

7 days of Christmas project #3

Welcome back! I am sorry I have skipped a few days but we had internet difficulties due to the bad storms we had here in Illinois. The issue was fixed late last night but I wanted to get you the Weekly Deals and the Holiday Sale information first.

Here is today’s card.

Mosaic Madness Christmas Card

This card did take a little more time because I colored the stamp using my Cherry Cobbler & Old Olive Stampin’ Write Markers. It too long but it wasn’t as quick as if I had just stamped the image in either color, which would have looked just as good.7 days of Christmas day 3 card detail

 

 

Don’t you just love this detail?

 

The bottom 2 rows of dots are actually on the inside of the card as I cut the front of the card 1/2″ shorter. I love it when the inside of the card is decorated and this one incorporates the front with the inside.

Did you see the cute tags I made that coordinate with this card? No? Hop on over to my facebook page for a peek!

Bam! Quick holiday tags- day 2

Loving the results of these holiday tags that were so quick to make and will save you time and use up your scraps.

quick holiday tags

I started with a strip of Whisper White cardstock then went to my Cherry Cobbler scraps to find some of those 1/2″ strips that are left over when you trim down for your cards. I ran one along the top and bottom edge of the whisper white. Needed to spruce up the bottom edge so I used the scallop edge punch for detail. I grabbed a scrap of Old Olive cardstock and punched out trees using my pennant punch, I added an ornament I stamped using the Mosaic Madness stamp set. From there I embellished with Cherry Cobbler & Silver Dazzling Details, Rhinestone & rhinestone jewels for the star on top.

Here is a better view of the details of a few of the tags.holiday tags close up
