Christmas Card Workshop

It is that time of year to think about making your Christmas Cards. What a wonderful gift to your special family and friends ~ a homemade Christmas card.

You will be creating 20 cards with the soon to be released Sparkle and Shine paper pack.

Included with your kit:

20 cards and envelopes

pre cut paper from a 1/2 pack of Sparkle and Shine paper pack 

Trim a tree stamp set

Sparkles Holiday Shapes

1/2 pack of clear sparkles

All of this plus instructions, my help and the time spent with friends!

Dates:

November 6th ~ Wednesday ~ 9:00 a.m. at my Palos Heights home

November 9th ~ Saturday ~ anytime between 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. at The Loft in Frankfort

You should allow about 2 - 2 1/2 hours to complete the cards. You are invited to spend all day at The Loft if you have other projects that you would like to work on - space is limited, so you need to let me know ahead of time.

I will be adding additional dates, so if either of these dates don't work for you, please let me know what would work and I will try to schedule for that day.

Always Grateful

I love this quote, and so I created this card with the new Always Grateful stamp set. This set, along with the new Huntington paper pack will be featured in the new Close To My Heart Idea book. The book is available on Thursday ~ August 1st.

15 Beautiful Cards

Wouldn't you like to have these cards ready for the next time you need to send out a hug? These 15 cards were made with a new Close To My Heart card kit. The kit will be available to order on August 1st. I really enjoyed making these cards - everything was in the kit except ink and adhesive. Such a fun way to spend an afternoon or evening.

This is Grandma's new bundle of joy!

Preserving Fun Memories

This week I played with the Later Sk8r Close To My Heart scrapbooking kit. While this kit has colors that would suggest boy theme's, I love how these precious pictures work with this paper. Check back later this week where I will unveil something extra special!

Have a great week and create something FUN!

p.s. leave a comment, and I will be drawing a winner for a special gift!

Paper Pouches

Do you want to give a special gift? These Close To My Heart paper pouches are the perfect way to "wrap up" so many special gifts. Wouldn't you enjoy an extra large Chocolate Chip cooking in one of these food save bags? They are also great for gift certificates, jewelry, love notes, and they work great of scrapbooking layouts to tuck your journaling or extra pictures inside.

Have a great day and create something FUN!

Photo Frame

I made this photo frame for the Regional Celebration - 3D chalkboard paper contest. I was honored to take 1st place. I loved using the little clothespins, chalkboard paper, the wooden mini-medley collection and paper from a variety of paper packs. You can contact me if you have any questions.

Enjoy and create something FUN today!
