FIVE more sleeps!!

It's hard to believe how fast time goes by when your having FUN!!  I have been busy, working, you know the day to day things.  BUT I have also been having some FUN.  I've  been trying to get some card sets completed to send to my family in Alberta.  I'm going to show you a couple of them below.  I also want to remind everyone about classes in January  - YES 2011.


The first class will be held on:  Jan 11th and it's FREE!!!  What we will be doing is working on YOUR projects.  I want you to bring a few of your stamps sets that you would like to use.  Bring your papers, glue, etc.  all the materials you need to make cards and I'm going to help you make cards with your own stashes.

 Now, you can use all my tools, but you need your own papers.  Don't forget your CHALKS - they are a perfect way to get color on your cards.  At the class I will have a few announcements !  Very exciting.

Class dates are as follows

Jan 11th  @ 1 pm

Jan 30th @ 1 pm



This is a Birthday Card made with our  Greenhouse Garden - two step stamp.  It is a really fun stamp set to use, and very, very versatile.
I have also used the Medallion stamp and the French Filigree back ground stamp. 

These background stamps are really a must have.  At least one of them.  They are a great way to fill your card with coordinating ink.

Butterfly Delight Card

Here's a wonderful card the uses the single Butterfly Stamp.  It was in one of the previous mini's, so now I guess it is retired.  I just love it though.  There are a lot of butterflies in the 2010 Idea book that can be used in place of this one.



This card is an all occasion card, and these are two of the 4 that I have made for my card sets to send to family.  Oh my, I all most forgot, the BLING - on the butterfly's are our wonderful Jewel Basic Rhinestones.  They are PERFECT to fill in the butterflies body.  Although you can't tell on the photo, they sparkle like diamonds.  I just LOVE them.

Bye for now!

WOW !! Look at this cute set

Hi Stampers:

Yes, it has been awhile I know.  I've been quite sick for the last week or so, although it is still hanging on, I just had to get back to some stamping.  I been working on making little boxes for our granddaughter which she can use as an advent calender.  Inside I put her favorite chocolates.  I'll show you a few pictures below.


But what I'm really excites about is my upcoming class on Dec 7th.  I had everything lined up for the projects we'll be doing, BUT, I ordered a class from a fellow Demo on line, and well, I just have to incorporate this little item into it.  It's just way toooooo cute!!

You can order this class to on   Stampin Pretty   through the web!  Just type in Stampin Pretty and I believe her web site should come up - use google!

Here's are Christmas Mini Milk Cartons:

I have made 25 of these and they all have number 1 to 25 on them.  So she'll be able open one every day!

They can easily be used over next year also.








 Happy Birthday to You !!
COURTNIE - 12 years old Dec 1st

Next are the little surprises, for the girls on Dec 7th, although I guess after they see this - awe they'll be NO surprise, but I have to show everyone.


These luminary's are so EASY to make and just as much fun!

Yep!  we have to make one on the 7th .....








Then, last but not least are the balance of the matching cards to the luminary's.  They are to cute!!

The complete matching set -  Merry Christmas to YOU !

Well that's it for now Stampers, I'll try to post again before Christmas
