Work xmas party favors

We exchanged ornaments for our work xmas party. So I wanted to make mine and here's what I came up with:  I love it!!!!  I bought the chipboard snowflake at a craft store and just added accessories from the pretties kit and punched a hole in the top and added hemp twine and very vanilla taffeta ribbon. As a SU demo you know we can't go with out a stamp, so I used the teeny tiny wishes set and the modern label punch. It's hard to tell but I added some soft suede ink around the edges with a dauber and adhered with a dimentional. Don't you love it?

So the next project are a bag of notecards.I made one each for all my girls at work. It's the same project I did at regionals and you did at my xmas wksp if you came. All I did was change the blue to rose red. I absolutely love how they turned out and boy were they easy. Don't you just love these projects? Now off to my next:) See ya soon and Happy Stamping!!

Heres a few pics of quick projects I've done this week. I would have posted sooner, but I lost my camera in my SU room. No suprise there for those of you that know how my organizational skills are:) The clipboard took me less than 10 min. I made it for an example for the girls to go off of and they did great..wish I had pics of theirs. The thankyou card was one of a 100 that I made for a friend of mine as a gift for their wedding.

Organizing stamp sets

Hi ,

Today I didn't get to work on any really creative projects, but what I did do was organize my stamp sets in a binder. I've finally gotten to the point where I have so many I can't remember what I have, so instead of digging through all the sets I created a binder with them stamped in it. I bought a regular binder from a retail store and stamped each set on a sheet of whisper white in basic black. I'm so excited bc it's going to be so much easier to sit down with  that when I'm ready to start a project. I wish I came up with this idea, but I can't take the credit I found it on another website and I don't remember who it was. I'd love to give credit to someone. Anyways I hope you find this useful and happy stamping!!

Pics from Regionals

Sry this took a bit. He's my pics from regionals.

Our Xmas wksp In Sept.

We had a blast Fri and Sat working on xmas cards. It great that we have a head start on cards now. My favs have to be the card using the Medallion stamp(115223) and the Charming set(116519). Actually I think I love them all!!! I've been so excited about the Holiday Mini Catalog, bc there's not one thing I don't want. Stampin Up is such a great company and right when you think they have everything you want they bring out another wonderful catalog with more great products . So excited this week I'm putting in my order and I can't wait to get all the Build a Bear stamp sets and dies. I had the opportunity to attend SU regional seminar in Cincinnatti and learned so many new techniques and seen some incredible projects most from this catalog. I can't wait to show you all the neat projects. Here's some picks from this weeks wksp.
