Hi Stampers,
I almost forgot again, but here is the dimensions to make even MORE of the nugget holders. I will also e-mail everyone I have an address for a video that I used. We had a busy Dec class getting all of our projects completed and ready for your stocking, some of you wanted to even make more! Hope this helps.
Enjoy:
BOX BASE: 5 x 7 1/4
score this at : 1/2 and 1 1/8 all the way around on all four sides
The belly bank: 5 1/8 x 7 5/8 is the bank size
score this at 5/8 & 3 1/2 then flip it 90 degrees and score again at 5/8 & 3 1/2
Whisper White card front: remember you have to cut the smallest section down 2 1/2 inches on the score line and then 2 1/2 across to take that little section out. You then have to corner round the little corner to give it a finished look
the card is 4 3/4 x 7
score this at 2 3/8 & 4 3/4
The layering piece: the whisper white card front was layered on was 2 1/2 x 4 7/8
As I said I will also try to email you the video link as well and that should be very helpful. When I have a little more time I will post a few new projects I've completed with some of the NEW products in the OCCASIONS MINI, which will start on Jan 4th.

Upcoming Projects!!
Hi Stampers,
I've been busy today preparing for my last two classes in December, and I thought maybe I would give you all a sneak peek at some of the projects we will be doing. Now each class has different project so what you see may NOT be in both classes. The classes have already decided what they wanted to do. These are so easy, and wonderful gifts to give to : the mail (person), your milk man - we still have one. Your office co-workers, I tell you the list really could go on! Don't forget the family, because inside the mini purse is some of the BEST chocolate you've ever eaten. The Ghirargelli Chocolate, very hard to come by in Canada, and available only around the holiday seasons. Yes, I found some and they will be your treat for your mini purse's. Don't you just LOVE the wine bottle gift card! It has a lovely greeting to give to the hostess when you are attending all those dinner parties. Well here are a couple of photos, there is also a little gift card you can attach to your favorite persons gift. Enjoy and see everyone SOON!!!
The little mini purses are to sweet! I love the little mittens on the bottle tag, it fits perfect with the greeting.
The tag is a little hard to see, put is a snap to make with the die found in the Holiday Mini on page 36. You will NEVER have to buy a tag again. These are so much fun because they all have little doors that you can hide a secret message in. Love them.
Well there you go, my share for the day! OK, maybe for a few days. Depends how busy I am.
Enjoy the sunshine everyone, its an extra gift from above I think. ......

HOLY GINGERBREAD BATMAN !!
Hi Stampers,
Well I have been playing this afternoon. Making some projects and looking at what we might make in our next class! Here's one that I recently purchased and made this afternoon. It was great fun to make and only required a few punches and some paper. It was easy to complete, I like those kind of projects. Here a peek stampers. Now as it is a gift bag/box I guess you would say, it can hold quite a bit inside. I would say it would hold 2 dozen cookie!! I tired to photograph it outside in the snow, but it was melting faster than I could get the shot !!

BIG SHOT WINNER!!!
Good Day Stampers!
I thought I'd better let everyone know - its GONE! The BIG SHOT has been won....
Kris Whidden won the Big Shot. She is one of the stampers that attends the Sunday Monthly classes and is working her way to a nice collection of stamps for her card making needs. She now has one of the MOST WANTED tools for her craft room. I know Kris will enjoy this tool! All the embossing, die cutting and paper crafting she'll be doing now, IMAGINE! Maybe she'll share with us.
I also wanted to mention that I will be putting an order in on Dec 1st and will probably be the last one for the year as we want everything to be here in time for Christmas. Keep in mind that i am personally offering NO SHIPPING until the end of December. If you want anything for your Christmas stocking please let me know before the 1st as it will be ordered first thing on the 1st. The New Occasions Mini is out and Demonstrators are allowed to order early. One month early, and well, I can't wait, so my order will be in by 7am that day!!! Lol Although I can't share that new mini with you, I can make some projects and share them on my blog. So be watching in early Dec for some fun new things on the blog.
Here's a photo of one of my groups that were here in October for our all day card making event. It was my BFF's 40th birthday !!! Whoops, did that slip.... Lol
