February 2014 Stamp A Stack

Each year I have the opportunity to participate in my upline's Stamp A Stack.  There is one in February, one in June and then October.  We always have a great time stamping.  I finally remembered to take some pictures of some of my customers enjoying the night!

Everyone that comes completes 2 cards of each of the 5 Designs.  The cards are designed by my Upline, Susan Campfield and fellow Demonstrator Brenda Cardinal.  So here's a look at the cards that they made during this session.

Next I have a couple of pictures of some of my customers that attended the February Session:

From left to right:    Traci, Alex and Kami
Yes, "Real Men" do stamp !!  Woo Hoo !!  This is the second Stamp A Stack session for Alex.

Here's Kami and Alex working at one of the stations in the living room.

While Traci is working at another station in the kitchen.

At another station which is downstairs in the Viking room - Kami and Alex are discussing the steps in making their cards.

Now Traci is almost finished with all of her cards.  Smiles around for all.

I'll be sharing some closer views of the actual cards in my next post.

So stop by again to see them.

I do "Thank You" for stopping by today!  Maybe next time you'll be joining us for the FUN !!

Valentine's Day Gifts for the Grandkids - Part 2

This is Part 2 of the Valentine's Day Gifts for the Grandkids.

For today we'll start with this Fun Scalloped Tag Topper Punch Treat Holder.

You can make these any size that you want, that's what is so FUN about them.  These are holding one of my favorites for Valentine's Day, I'm sure that the Brach's Conversation Hearts have been every one's favorite over the years.

The close up view shows just how adorable these turned out!!  One of my favorite sets currently is the Monstermaniacs stamp set !!  Stampin' Up actually held a contest for anyone to create a New Stamp set.  This one is definitely a Winner for me !!  I also used the Just Sayin' stamp set and the Word Bubbles Framelits.  The Big Shot, Chalk Talk Framelits and the Fresh Prints Designer Series Paper Stack.


Last but not least is the Valentine Twisty Treats Bag.

This is another one of the FREE Products that you can receive during Sale-A-Bration.  You get 12 cellophane bags, twist ties, and die cut tags.  Just think of all the cute things that you can do with these!

I forgot to mention that you even get the Silver glitter hearts too !!!  The Be Mine is from the Around Array stamp set.  Then I used the 5/8" Real Red Satin Ribbon (retired) to finish them off.


Thanks for stopping by today for Part 2 of the Valentine's Day Gifts for the Grandkids!!

Happy Stamping!!!

Valentine Gifts for the Grandkids

It's been pretty crazy lately, so I apologize for not getting these posted earlier.  I realize that it's a little late, but I still wanted to share some of the Valentine Gifts that I made for the grandkids this year.

This is a different take on an earlier post that I did for the Valentine Sweetheart Treat Bag and Card Holder.

You can see my earlier post, just click ( Here ).  

These were so fun to make, such a great way to send a Valentine and Chocolate to someone.


This cute idea I saw over at Julie Davison's blog.  I just love the Monster Hugs Valentines!!

This is a closer view.  You make a box first, then attach the Monster Hugs to the back.  That way their arms wrap around to the front for a BIG HUG!!  So Cute!

Next up I have their Valentine Gift Card Holders.  I love how easy it is to make a Gift Card Holder now with the Card Base Pop 'n Cuts Die!!

Here's the close up view:

Next is the Open View:

Inside is an I-Tunes gift card.  They really enjoy those !
I used the Banner Blast stamp set and the Banner Punch from Sale-A-Bration.  Along with the Language of Love, Hearts A Flutter and the Love You to the Moon stamp sets.  White Baker's Twine and the 1/4" Real Red Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon.


Okay, this is getting a little long.  I will have Part 2 of the rest of their gifts post tomorrow.  I promise.

As always,  I so want to Thank All of You for stopping by to view my late post for Valentine's Day !!

Happy Stamping !!!

Valentine's Day Class

Hello everyone,

Thought I would share a couple of the projects that we made at the Valentine's Day Treat Class that my Upline Susan Campfield had.  There were 4 projects to make during the Class and here at 2 of them.

The Sweetheart Mini Coffee Cup Holder:

These are really popular right now and they are made with the Mini Tasting Coffee Cups.  If you check out my prior post from Christmas, I made them as a Christmas Gift for Susan.  Just click (Here ) to view the details regarding how to order the Coffee Cups and the Templates from Deb Valder ( the original creator).

Here's a closer view.  I added the Hearts and the XOXO after I got home on both sides of the Holder.  The Hearts were left over after you run the handle through the Big Shot with the Hearts Framelits to make a hole in the Handle.  The XOXO is from the Circle Card Thinlits.  With a Basic Jewel Rhinestone for a little Bling!


Next up is this adorable Valentine's Day Treat Box:

We had a lot of fun making these.  Using the Decorative Window Gift Boxes.  The Roses were made using the New Spiral Flower Original Die.  They have little Dum Dum lollipops for the center which makes your stem.  The leaves were made using the 3/8" Gumball Green Stitched Satin Ribbon.  Add some candy, we used the individual wrapped lifesavers and then added some shredded paper to help hold the Roses in place.  The Crop-A-Dile (which is retired) was used to punch the holes in the Window of the box.  Then 3/4" Blushing Bride Chevron Ribbon was tied around the box.  The Stamp set is "Tags 4 You" carried over from the Holiday Catalog.

Here's a closer view for you:

                                                       Love the Roses on this project!!

A Big Thank You to Susan for the awesome Valentine's Day Treat Class!  We had a great time for sure!
I will post the other 2 projects hopefully this weekend.  Our Winter Stamp A Stack starts tomorrow.

I hope you give these Valentine's Day ideas a try.  It's so nice to give and receive a Hand Made gift for any Special Holiday or Occasion!

Thanks for stopping by today !!!

Happy Stamping !!!
