Medallion Treats


What's more fun than getting a hand made card?  Getting one with Green M&M's!!!  LOL!!  I am so hooked on this stamp!!  It has to be the best purchase I've made so far!!  And I FiNaLlY tried the two tone technique.. I'm so proud of myself!!  LOL!!

I just wish it wasn't so early in the morning before they were finished!!!  Just another Late Night Stamper!!



Teacher Gifts

I got really lucky!  I found the glass at the local dollar store, and the gloves were 2 for 1!!  I have a really hard time deciding on what to do for my kids teachers.  I thought this would be something fun!  I took the Mug and put some cocoa in it (wrapped up, of course), then I took the gloves and made it look like they were holding the mug of cocoa.  I don't think I like the packaging, and I just found some cool cellophane!  I'm gonna work with the packaging, but anyway... this is the end result... so far!!!

Oh, the weather outside is frightful...

But the fire is so delightful,
And since we've no place to go,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

It doesn't show signs of Pausing,
And I've bought some corn for popping,
The lights are turned way down low,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

When we finally kiss goodnight,
How I'll hate going out in the storm!
But if you'll really hold me tight,
All the way home I'll be warm.

The fire is slowly dying,
And, my dear, we're still good-byeing,
But as long as you love me so,
Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!

The snow is falling, and the sky had a beautiful purple hue, as the sun set.  What a beautiful moment!  But, then realizing that we had to move all the snow from the drive and the walk, the moment was over.  Yet, with this image in my head, check back to see how this has inspired me!!  Yeah!!

I Do!!


Created with My Digital Studio.  I have had so much fun with this program!  Love It!  LOVE IT!  LOVE IT!  


Warm Christmas Hug- gift certificate holder


This was my first attempt at hands.  I needed to come up with a great holder for my gift certificates, and I love this one!!  To keep the card closed, I punched 2 small holes between the fingers and threaded black twine through the holes and tied it into a bow.  The ornament has a loop on top that hangs from the bow.  Such fun!!

XOXO- For Challenge #47



I love the final outcome!  I've had this idea for a while, just had to sit down and do it!  So, when challenge #47 Hugs and Kisses came about, it was time.  I think my favorite feature of the card is the ring... it's a brad that I put through the finger and then used the post to wrap back around the finger.  FUN!!  And I was able to use the XOXO stamp from Define Your Life... well the challenge IS called Hugs and Kisses..right!


More Matchbook goodies!!




These were fun!  I just finished making 60 of these!  They are about an inch taller than the other Matchbooks I've made before.  This is so you can put a business card in the pocket with the chocolate.  I was also able to use up some of the retired in-color cardstock I have.  Yeah!!

The circle circus stamp set is so versitle! This card happened by
accident, but the results were fantastic! I love creating with this
set!

Mosaic medallion

I used scraps of paper I had laying around and my favorite stamp! I
think it turned out awesome!

Snowflake Matchbooks




 Traditional Christmas colors have been done, so now its time to switch it up a bit. I love the Serene Snowflake stamp set! The colors were fun, too! Blue is so calming in the winter, and today we finally got SNOW!
