Candy Cane Treat Holder

  I just got done making a hole bunch of these cute little treat holders for my Husbands colleagues. I'm not exaggerating when I tell you, my craft room looks like Santa's Workshop. I have projects allover the place and everything seems to glimmer with glitter.    

 

 

I found this project on Pinterest and the credit goes to Sam Hammond from England. These little treat holders are really easy and fast to make.

 

 

But just in case here are the measurements:

Cardstock – 4 x 10″
Score on the LONG side at  5-3/4, 6-1/4″
Designer Series Paper   2-3/4 x 3-1/2″ AND 2-3/4 x 2-1/2″
Cardstock   2-1/2 x 2-1/2″  AND 2-1/4 x 2-1/4″

 

Santa Clause Treats

      It is a tradition for me to have always a little gift for my customers when they come to my workshops, and I always prepare something matching the season.  For this month I chose to make little Santa Clauses with swirl lollipops. My lovely Hubby created a little wood stand so they can be used for decoration.      

 

 

The Jolly Friends Stamp Set was just perfect for this little project. If you would like to make something like this you can order the Stamp set right HERE, and it is even  discounted right now.

 

 

Team Christmas Party

    A couple of weeks ago our team got together and celebrated Christmas. It is a tradition for us to buy a small gift but wrap it up BIG, because for us stampers it's all about the packaging. To make it even better, everybody gets to vote on the best gift.        

When I received the 2016/17 Holiday catalog I got this crazy idea to make a wreath.  Believe me, at the time I did not know what I got myself into. Needless to say, after I was done  I had to retire

the Pretty Pines Thinlits Dies for a little while. My hubby helped me out with the lighting.  The final project was just stunning.  I did win first prize with this project and that made my

work so worth while.

 

 

We also had a card competition, and for my entry I used the Star of Light Bundle with the Copper Foil Sheets. I was shocked

when my card won the first price also. It was a real honor being  

chosen twice by Stampin up Demonstrators to win.

 

Angel

 

A lot of you have inquired about directions how to make the Angel.

Below I have created instructions along with pictures for you to follow.  

I hope these instructions help you to create your own beautiful Angels.

Fall Mason Jars

     I made a few of these Mason Jars for my Friends, and they really loved them. I put some battery operated Tee lights in them.    

This picture shows it with the candle on. With the Leaflet Framelits I cut a stencil from Contact Paper, which I adhered to the Mason Jar and just spray painted the jars. I used some beans to elevate the candle a little bit. To decorate the top of the Jars,  I used the Acorny Thank you Stamp set and the coordinating Acorn Builder Punch .

 

 

Hope you had fun with todays project!

 

 

Thanksgiving Card

 

 

 

When I saw the Serene Scenery Designer Series Paper Stack in the

annual Catalog, I wasn't sure if I would like it.

But I do like a good challenge, so I went ahead and ordered it.

 

  I challenged myself to make a different kind of Thanksgiving card. I started out with the Dandelion paper and kept  building on to it. The suns were part of the September Paper Pumpkin and I used them as Sunflowers to frame the Scarecrow. Altogether I do like the warms of this card, it is just perfect for a heartfelt Thanksgiving greeting.      Hope you enjoyed todays project.
