Crafty Gift Ideas

 Good Morning, Stampers!

I have a couple of useful gift ideas that you can use for your team or for your crafty friends. Not only will it make their day, but it's always fun to give little gifts or treats, too! I made these for our
Leadership conference last week, but you never need an excuse to surprise someone with a 
thoughtful gift!


You can't craft without having some gum on hand. I used the 
Beautifully Penned designer papers from Sale-A-Bration
along with the Create with Friends stamp set.
I simply wrapped the cardstock (no specific measurements) 
 around the package and added a few embellishments on top.


Of course every stamper needs a package of baby wipes to
clean off their stamps! I kept with the same theme and created a 
simple tag from with the same Beautifully Penned designer papers and
Create with Friends stamp set along with the additional embellishments.


SU!pplies:
Stamps: Create with Friends
Ink: Real Red, Basic Gray
Paper: Basic White, Real Red, Beautifully Penned DSP
Accessories: Real Red ribbon, Taylored Made Tags dies, Penned Flowers dies, Basic Rhinestones

Celebrating Ontour!

 Good Morning, Stampers!

I had such a fun time hangin' with some of my favorite fellow Stampin' Up! demonstrators as we attended Ontour online this past weekend! We had lots of extra stamp time planned with shoebox swapping on both Friday and Saturday, too!



These were the gifts I gave to all my downline who attended. A little stamp
 case filled with a note pad, pen and treats to enjoy while attending.




Hard at work! 


Wrapping it all up! 

I will have more project photos to share in the coming days - stay tuned!

Singles to Go Treats

Good Morning, Stampers!

I created these sweet treats for all of my MOM stampers who attended my classes last week!! These would make great gifts for teachers, volunteer thank you's or at graduation/end-of-the-year parties. Scroll down for the simple instructions!



They are so easy to make, too!
Cut a 1 1/4" x 10" piece of Bubbles and Fizz designer series paper and score along the long edge at 3″ and 3 1/2". Fold along the score lines. Use a 3/4″ Circle Punch to make a hole for the lemonade packet. Punch the top with the Scalloped Tag topper punch and decorate as desired!

A Paper Pumpkin Thing Blog Hop-A Sara Thing Kit

Good Morning, Stampers!


EXCITING NEWS! We have an ALL-NEW Blog Hop
featuring the April Paper Pumpkin kit - A Sara Thing!
Whether you are arriving from Dena Rekow's blog or just 
starting out, WELCOME! As you continue around the hop, 
you will be filled with lots of different ideas
using your April Paper Pumpkin kit!

We were all so thrilled to hear that Sara had taken creative control
for the April kit. We all loved her bold color choice as well
as her own hand-writing on the photopolymer stamps.
AND, if all that wasn't enough, she included a FREE GIFT, too! BONUS!!

So, this hop is geared towards alternative projects created
with the April kit. I loved that the stamp set included teachers
in the sentiments. It is approaching the end of the school year
and the perfect time to get started on teacher gifts!


I created a box from the cards by cutting two cards in
half at 2 3/4". Then, along the long edge, I cut the 
pieces to 7". I folded all four pieces on the score lines
and adhere the 2 3/4" squares together to form the
base of the box as shown:

Finally, I brought up the sides of the box and adhered
them with the Basic Black Washi Tape included in the kit
and filled the box with a coordinating flower and supplies. 
SO SIMPLE!!


BLOG HOP GIVEAWAY: To be entered into a drawing for a FREE 
"A Sara Thing" Paper Pumpkin Kit, you must leave a comment on 
EVERY blog. Drawing closes on Saturday, April 29th at 9 PM EST. 
The winner will be announced on Monday, May 1, 2017.
