Mini Lunch Sack Characters

We had another awesome class yesterday! The ladies loved the characters we created using the Mini Lunch Sacks from the Holiday Mini Catalog. I had gone to a crop in August, and we collectively created the Turkey and the Scarecrow. I then used them as a guide and created the Snowman and Santa. I think they are so adorable! I can't wait to see what I can come up with for Valentine's Day, Easter, etc.


























We used lots of Punches, the Big Shot, Embossing Folders & Texturz Plates, Sponging, Stampin' Dimensionals & Sponge Daubers, Ribbon & the White Signo Gel Pen for highlights.

Shower Favor & Card

We had my nieces Bridal Shower yesterday. My contribution was making the favors for everyone who attended. Thanks to my Upline, Cindy K. I had the perfect idea.

I made 30 of these adorable "purses", perfect for my niece, who has loved little bags since she was little herself. The colors for her wedding are white, cream, silver & purple. The Lap of Luxury DSP was perfect, paired with Concord Crush Cardstock and the 1/2" Stitched-Poly Ribbon. Doing a project like this is when you fall in love with the Big Shot all over again! I was able to cut 2 layers of cardstock at a time, and 4 layers of DSP. Since I had to cut 90 Scallop Circles, that made my job so much easier.

I also made the card I put with her gift. The sentiment is from Whimsical Words from Sale-a-Bration last year. I love this set and found a great saying that I hand wrote on the inside with my Concord Crush Stampin' Write Marker.


Thanks for stopping by ~ Have a great week!

Merry Little Christmas

Hope you all had a Haunting Halloween. We don't get any trick or treaters where I live, but I still buy candy, just in case. Now, I can't seem to keep my hands out of the candy basket! I guess I need to get busy stamping to keep my hands busy and my mind off of the chocolate.

Here is another card from my Christmas Card Stamp-a-Stack. For this one I used the Builder Wheels, Little Cardinals & Little Christmas. The Builder Wheels are so much fun because you can design your own wheel. Using the Jumbo Handle and 2 or 3 of the Builder Wheels you can create just the look you want. You can also customize your colors by using the Jumbo Uninked Cartridge, or for more color you can use the Uninked Triple Cell Cartridge. These are designed so you can use 3 different colors at one time. I used a Jumbo Cartridge and my Garden Green Classic Ink Refill to ink it up. I wheeled the image on a whole sheet of Whisper White Cardstock, and then cut it into strips the size I needed.

The snowflake printed paper is one of the cute designs from the Candy Cane Christmas DSP. The background is Baja Breeze, run through the Big Shot in the Perfect Polka Dot Embossing Folder. The embossing folders are an easy way to add dimension to any project. I added a strip of Always Artichoke Seam Binding, punched out one of the cardinals with the 1" Circle Punch and adhered it with Stampin' Dimensionals.

I wanted to add just a touch of color, so I used my Blender Pen with Poppy Parade, Real Red & Garden Green Classic Ink to color the little cardinal.

My next class is coming up in a couple of weeks, November 14. We will be decorating the Mini Lunch Sacks from the Holiday Mini Catalog. We'll be making a Scarecrow, Turkey, Santa & a Snowman. Are you hosting a Holiday Event, or just want to take a Thank You to your hostess? Then you won't want to miss this class. Contact me to sign up today!
