A Holiday Stamping Party

For the 2nd year in a row I provided a "stamp camp to go" for my friend Abbe's Holiday Party. Look what she and her guests made:

The hot cocoa cone and Snowman tag:

The recipe for the Hot cocoa can be found HERE and it's YUMMY!!! There are 2 pastry bags in this cone. one to hold the hot chocolate (approx 3.4 cup) and then its inside the 2nd pastry cone to ensure the marshmallows (1/2 cup) stay clean & white. this was my favorite project!

The Fancy Favor tote and 3x3 gift cards

I used the Sparkly & bright stamp set and some cute retired holiday dsp I just ordered last week!

the Nugget tin and 6 holiday tags:

these were so cute too ! Every one LOVED the projects and had a blast! and there was some amazingly great creativity in the room! Thanks Abbe! Hugs to you!

Build-A-Bear is today! off to get ready!

Club card-a little late

I can not believe I forgot to post this!

This card is CASED from KristaTracy on Splitcoast. I LOVED this simplicity of this card. Oh & I mean cased- 100% copy & stole everything for this card. She did a FAB job! its 3 punched ornaments together. oops - my cord is lopsided!

My Club girls got a bonus card this month as well....I wanted them to try a corduroy button (or brad). this card is also very simple. I stamped using circle circus to make a small piece of patterned paper. Stamp in black and add a black sentiment and you can bring another color. EASY. such a great way to use just a little bit of designer paper and keep the main focus of the card the button.


Recipe:

Stamps: Teeny Tiny wishes

Paper: crushed curry, night of navy

Ink: same

Accessories: summer sun corduroy button

Some paper and Ribbon share packaging

I recently held a paper and ribbon share-- this one seems to be lingering forever..... Sent the email, had the ladies sign up and provide payment, Placed the order, my son got the swine flu, Stampin up had some items back ordered, I went away to a retreat for 4 days-- ahhh but today all the ribbons went in the mail for the long distance ladies and in the bags (soon to be picked up and/or delivered) here for the local ladies! A HUGE RELIEF!!!

Part of the fun though is coming up with the packing for the shares! I loved Becky Roberts' tags so much that I made my version for the paper shares. Stinking cute I think!!! cranked out quite a few of these this past weekend at my retreat as I had multiple groups in the shares.

the ribbons were fun too! Let me know what you think.
