Happy Holidays #2

Here is my card I created last night.  I like the simplicity of this one.  =)  Unfortunately my order was messed up so I was missing the stamp set I ordered that had the Happy Holidays stamp I wanted to use on the bottom of this card.  So I'll add that later.  Even without it, I'm really happy with the results.

Seasons Greetings #1

Yes I'm doing exactly what I complain about each and every year......"It's not even Halloween and Holiday things are already out and on sale."  However, I'm going to be working hard to sell some of my creations next month so my goal is try to make at least 10 cards a week to sell.  So here is the first of many holiday creations!  What I like about this one is that it is pretty generic and it uses two of my new stamp sets  and my new punch.

Finished!

These two doilies were handcut.

Stamps: Delicate Doilies, Curly Cute

Crayon Monogram

Our day care provider just built a new home and moved over the weekend.  We wanted to do something special for her because of all that she does for us.  So I decided it would be nice to make her something for her new home to put in her day care area.  I got the design from a pin on my very favorite new site, Pinterest.  Click here for the original post with design.

To make it yourself all you will need is Approx 2-4 boxes of 24 crayola crayons, 1 piece of scrapbook paper, hot glue gun, and small glue dots (these I used to stick down and form the letter before I hot glued the final copy).  I used a die cut from my stamping supplies for the saying.

In Progress

All Done!

Taylor excited to give it to Ms. Karyn

Cutest Favors EVER!

So one of the newest and favorites from Stampin' Up this year is their Nugget Wrappers and MatchBox.  Using this cute set a die cut for the box and some Address Labels I made just the cutest favors for Taylor's Birthday Party.  The possibilities are endless with these wrappers.  They are even coming out with more occasions in their Holiday Mini!  OMG!  I'm in heaven!

Hair Candy!

So I've been getting a little more crafty.  My daughter Taylor has grown some more hair and I of course had to go out and buy a whole bunch of barrettes for her.  Then I got them home and realized I didn't have anything to put them in.  So I bought a small jar from Walmart for approximately $3 and dressed it up with some stampin' up punches, accessories, and designer paper.  I LOVE how it turned out!

Getting My Craft On!

So this past week the new Stampin' Up! yearly catalogue was released.  I got mine in the mail on Friday.  So in Love!!  Found so many cute ideas.  Now that we have a nap schedule somewhat under control.  I'm armed and ready to get my craft on.  Thursday and Friday next week and then the week of my birthday are crafting days.  So excited!  So get ready to see lots of cute ideas!  =)  If you go to my school you may see some for sale!  =)

Easter Basket

So last night, yes one day AFTER Easter, I know, I made two little Easter Baskets for two special people to Taylor and I for today.  I used Certainly Celery, Pretty In Pink and an old DSP pattern I had laying around.  They turned out pretty cute if I do say so myself.  I can take no credit I got the idea from Chic n' Scratch.  Great blog, if you are stamper, btw.
