Last-Minute Gift Ideas

There are only 17 days left until Christmas! Do you still have loved ones to buy gifts for? Here are a few suggestions:

* My Digital Studio is a great gift for teens! They'll love making scrapbook pages, cards, and calendars for friends using the simple software. Plus when you order this exciting software suite, you'll receive a free Décor Elements piece valued up to $16.95!
* Simply Sent card kits are a great ready-to-wrap gift and have everything you need to complete 10 cards. This is the perfect last-minute gift for card makers or people you think may like making cards!
* Anyone who has a Big Shot will want the Alphabet Simple Letters Bigz die. It can cut through a variety of materials including vinyl, chipboard, and felt. This makes a great gift for a seamstress who would like to sew custom appliquéd pieces on her projects, someone who wants to create their own vinyl phrases to personalize her home décor, or any paper crafter who uses letters. And when you purchase this item, you qualify for a free Décor Elements piece valued up to $16.95!
* Add the final touch to your gift that says "I was thinking of you when I bought this gift" by personalizing it with Décor Elements. Add an Upsy Daisy Décor Elements to a laptop or cut it apart and apply it to a cell phone. Put all of the toys from Santa together in one container and add the So Many Toys Décor Elements to it, or use individual letters to add monograms and names to your gifts. These extra special touches won't go unnoticed.

You can make your last-minute shopping a little bit easier. Within a few minutes you can have your shopping done and delivered to your door by Christmas!

Craft Festival (part 3)

Here are the coloring pages that I created for kids. They will be packaged 12 for $1. These are great as gifts for kids. I think that teachers could purchase them and give with a box of crayons for an inexpensive gift for Christmas.

Craft Fair (part 2)

This is a hanging heart with note cards. This will also be a good gift for teens and older ladies. These will also be $2.50....

Craft Fair Items

All this week I will be completing crafts for the craft fair at Ephesus Elementary this Saturday 12/5/2009. As I complete these projects I will be posting them for all to see. I have limited supplies for all items. However, orders will be accepted if paid for in advance.

This will be one item that I will be selling at the craft fair. These will be perfect gifts for teachers, friends, or stuffers for Christmas. Cost of these will be $2.50....

Christmas Wreath Class

Here are some pics from my Christmas wreath class. I had some tables out with clearance items for sale. All of these items will be for sale at the Christmas Bazaar this Saturday at Ephesus Elementary. I still have a few wreaths. Let me know if you are interested in purchasing one. $20 per wreath

Q: Do you anticipate running out of any of the sale items?
A: While we try to accurately predict what will happen during a promotion, sometimes there are unanticipated outcomes.

Christmas Art Journal

I thought this art journal would be a cute class to offer for parents to make as Christmas gifts. I decorated the journal with Real Red, Glorious Green, and Whisper White cardstock. I used Whisper White ribbon. I embossed Dasher and the Christmas saying (from an old stamp set) with gold embossing powder. I used the scallop edge punch to decorate the bottom of the Real Red cardstock. Please let me know if you would like to order this gift for your child at Christmas time!!!

The box is made from Close to Cocoa Card Stock and the Retired DSP Good Morning Sunshine. The note cards are made using So Saffron and Bravo Burgundy Card Stock with the One of a Kind stamp set and Old Olive ribbon.

Give Thanks Card

I used the new IN COLORS and two of the new hostess sets for this card. I embossed all the images on the front of the card in white. I also used Whisper White ribbon. This card is featured in our new catalog but I believe they used clorox for the front instead of embossing.

Thank You Card

So, I am playing with my things today while surfing through blogs and I come across a blog that teaches you how to use a pack of DSP and cardstock with some ribbon, a scallop or my case a circle (because I have not bought the scallop, yet) and a saying and this is what I created. I was really scared of what this paper (Good Morning Sunshine, which by the way is retired now) would create because it is so busy, but I think it turned out really well.

The contains 2 strips of DSP 5"x2", One piece of Chocolate Chip 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" matted to a cut piece of cardstock 4 1/4" x 11" and scored down the middle at 5 1/2". Before matting the Chocolate Chip on the back of the card I ran a piece of Chocolate Chip Ribbon across the middle to form a cross and glued them to the back of the Chocolate Chip. Then I matted the Chocolate Chip tho the card. I cut the circle out with 1 3/8" circle punch and glued it right on the middle of the cross. I think for the next little while I will be playing with some of this paper and preparing some of the various greeting (thank you, birthday wish, get well soon, etc...) cards and packaging them to sell. Once I get the first one complete I will post the prices.

True Friend 12x12 page

We will be creating this page Monday morning during my scrapbook club at my house. I used Perfect Plum, Pale Plum Whisper White card stock and Tea Part DSP. I used the True Friend and Taffy Alphabet as well as the 1 3/8" circle punch. Come join us for a morning of scrapbooking. Cost is $10 to cover all materials. Hope to see you there.

Baby Shower Card

My siter and I sat down this evening to create a baby shower card for one of her friends. We used So Saffron and Whisper White cardstock. I had a sheet of some Designer Series Paper given to me and I am not sure what the name of it was, but we used a piece of it and some Old Olive ribbon. We choose the Wagon Full of Fun stamp set.... and below is the creation that we made. Sorry about the picture quality, my camera must be messing up on me.

One of a Kind 12x12 Page

I created this page the day I received my circle scissors. I used Perfect Plum, Pale Plum, Certainly Celery, and Whisper White cardstock and Tea Party DSP. I used Pretty in Pink, Certaily Celery, So Saffron, and Almost Amethyst ink and stamp and write markers. I also used the 1/2" circle punch and stampin dimensionals.

One of a Kind 8x10 Page

I got the inspiration for this page from a card that was in the previous Stampin' Up catalog. I created the page using Certainly Celery and Bashful Blue cardstock. I used Real Red, Pretty in Pink, Bashful Blue, and Certainly Celery ink.
