Happy New Year!

Hello,
I hope you've had a wonderful holiday! I took a break from stamping during the holidays and am feeling very refreshed! It also helped that my friend came over and helped me 'clean sweep' my craft room. WOW, does it look amazing!!! It had gotten to the point where I could hardly stand to be in here anymore. Really sucks the creative juices out when your work space is a bomb, eh? Anyone relate?

Anyway a new year, and a new swap with my downline. Here is the card that I made for the swap. It uses the new Vintage Vogue stamp set. (Mine is clear mount...lovin' it!) Also the Sending Love Notes Hugs (p 19). Not only do theymake adorable little Valentine cards, they make great matt's! Well Scripted stamp set is my fav, its pg 19 as well. So verstaile and a real keeper! Colours on this card are Soft Suede and Rich Razzleberry.















On another note...I had a dozey of a fall a week ago tonight! We were ice skating at a work party for Chris's store and I was helping Mikayla from not falling and in doing that lost my balance and landed on the back of my head! Ouch! Long story short I got a concussion, blacked out, fractured skull, staples, whiplash and a very sore head and neck needless to say! I am thankful this is the worse of it though....my memory has a come back except for that whole evening...don't remember any of it from lacing Mikayla's skates onward....so that's some drama in our lives we could do without!

I'll be sharing my swap cards in the next few days so hope you come by and take a look!

OH!!! its Saleabration time and the new Occasions Mini is up and running! BOTH have fab new accessories and stamp sets. Plus, the release of our new clear mount system will have you loving either wood or clear mount - options are always great!

Happy Stampin'

Teacher gifts

Hello again, Thanks for stopping by!

Here are the teacher/coach gifts I made this Christmas. Each year I try to find something unique and this year when I was in the States a few weeks ago I came accross this great Chocolate covered pretzels. I loved the packaging and thought..."I can alter those". So here is what I came up with. I did use some retired stuff and also some current supplies too....Loved my circle cutter for getting the perfect sized circle on the top of the lid.

I probably won't be posting much in the next while...

I hope you have a Wonderful Christmas with your Loved Ones....That you get some time to celebrate the real reason for the Season too! The Birth of Our Lord Jesus.

Thanks for sharing 2009 with me and I look forward to sharing lots in 2010 as well!

Snowman Poop

howdy!
Here is the craft I did with Mikayla's gr 5 class last week. The poem reads:
Heard you've been naughty so here's the scoop....All you get this year is snowman poop!

All but one of the kids felt their parents would be great with it, I brought along a Merry Christmas stamp in its place if need be :) The kids all thought it was funny. Something different then a card, right?

crafttime


Hello!
Mikayla had her friend Tess over yesterday and they seemed kinda bored so I asked if they wanted to make a craft. Of course the answer was 'yes'....they are 10 yr old girls :)
Anyway I saw this idea ages ago and finally got the girls to try it out. We used felt with the Top Note die and stitched them together to make a small purse. Used the embosslits for the white flower and a rhinestone brad for the centre. Non SU ribbon for the handle. Cute eh?

cute boxes

Happy Saturday!

I just finished baking some Christmas goodies so thought i'd take a few minutes to rest at the computer before Jacob wakes up!

Here are some cute little boxes that I gave to my Downline that came to my Christmas party last week. They fit the Ghiradelli (sp?) chocolates perfectly!

You can find the directions here.
