Decembers Demo Meeting

We met at Pam's for our demonstrator group meeting and Secret Santa Gift exchange.

She had 2 great make n takes! The first one was designed by Anne Sanderson.

And the second make n take is created by Pam Lee.

We also did a swap! Here is Barb Kark's card.

Here is Allyson's card!

Kathryn Jung's card!

Lisa Fedoruk's card!

And the last card is made by Sue Hughes!

I always enjoy seeing everyone at the meetings! I look forward to the next one!

Tea light boxes and New stuff!

I made these Tea Light boxes as a Christmas gift for all of my Stampin' Club Members.

I loved how they turned out!

(yes, they are battery operated tea lights!)

I followed Carole Annes instructions. (please click on her name to see her beautiful creations!) I did have to change the dimensions, as I didn't have

11- 1/4" velum.

I made this card for my Niece who turned 6 this december.

I used some new products from the Occasions Mini starting Jan 5th.

Oh, and what a great Mini it is! If you would like a copy please let me know!

Stampin' Up has come out with Clear Mount Stamps. What is that all about you ask?

Its the same great rubber That Stampin Up! already offers the only difference is that it has a cling image sticker that sticks to an acrylic clear block. So you can see where you are stamping!

I think this is a great idea and have already purchased the blocks and 3 stamp set too!

I used the new stamp set Vintage Vogue and Well Scripted here.

You can make this card by following Patty Bennetts tutorial. (check it out!)

I can't wait to play some more with my new stuff!

Christmas Cards

Here is the card I created for my Boss. I don't think he checks out my blog so I think it's safe! I used Taken with Teal and Chocolate Chip, a strip of the Holiday Lounge DP, and of course Dasher! (I love him). This is a larger card (5 1/4" x 8") so that all the staff could write inside!

This is the card I made for Vincent's Teacher.

I used Real Red and Chocolate Chip, Cocoa Specialty Paper, Plenty of Petals emboss folder and Dasher! Oh, and the ribbon is the real red polka dot.

And a few quick and simple tags.

Merry Christmas!

December's Stampin' Club Projects

Here are the cards we made this month.

Sorry the pictures aren't the greatest! We have yet to purchase a new camera.

Do you spend alot of money for a high tech one or just a small point and shoot one?

I'm leaning towards the small one, just because they are easier to throw in your purse and go!

Both cards use the stamp A Brand New Year from the holiday mini catalogue ending Jan. 4th. The first card I followed Patty Bennetts tutorial for Pop Up Window Sheet Card.

And the second card is an Easel Card.

I love this card and can't wait to make more! They are so easy to make.

It's basically just adding a card front to a card base. The card front is 4 1/4" x 5 1/2".

The card base is 4 1/4" x 11" score at 2 3/4" and again at 5". Fold card in half at the 5" score, like you making a standard card. Then fold the lower portion in, creating a tent.

Adhere the the card front to the lower potion of the card or tent. Then all you have to do is place a stop for the card to rest against (I used the star punch outs with a dimensional )

Sorry I took the picture on my dark table. Try clicking on the picture for a better view!

Thanks Ladies for a great time as usual! And for taking the time to come to class during this busy time of year!
