clock.

i made this clock from an old clock. i repainted it, adhered some decor elements, and stamped it. it matches my stampin' room purrfectly! i will need to post pics of my space soon...but first i must clean it a bit. Ü

how stinkin' cute is this??!! my friend tami gave me the idea of putting one of these together and then i loved the colors that jill used on hers and came up with my own version.

card packs.

i put 8 birthday cards w/envelopes in these stamp boxes, decorated the front of the box, wrapped 'em up cute with ribbon and they're ready to go. i'm thinking of doing some more--like with a variety of cards in them. a friend of a friend puts these together with cards for every occassion, sends them to work with her husband and he sells them to all the guys at the office. now they have a card for their wives for each holiday! brilliant!! Ü
here's the front of the pack. and below are the cards i placed inside...

i adapted this card from one off of kristina werner's blog. love it!! this card uses the party hearty stamp set.

i know you've seen this card before...why reinvent the wheel, right?? Ü

this one and the one below are repeats as well but i changed the colors a bit. card above uses the 8 great greetings set and the one below uses party hearty again.

coaster calendar.

i made these a few years ago for christmas presents for my stamper's club. they loved them! great for setting in the kitchen or on your desk. they're quite a bit of work though when you have 10+ to make. but i decided to make them again this year and try and sell them at a couple of the holiday bazaars i'm doing this season. below are all the different months for you....enjoy!

i've been gone for a long time...

...and i'm sorry! with 2 boys in sports, a family to keep track of, keeping up with my stampin' up! business... and i am now taking some classes! could i add anything else to my plate? Ü oh, well-- i'm hoping to get back on track with this blog starting now. my goal is to post at least once a week--let's see if i can reach it. ok, so lets start with some christmas cards. i wanted to find an option for a photo card with stamping incorporated so i can still send "handmade" cards...here is one i came up with:

this photo was taken a couple of years ago. super cute kids, huh? Ü

here's one that uses the snowflakes from the snow swirled stamp set. it does have 'season's greetings' on the bottom but you can hardly see it.

this card uses the holiday blitz stamp set. very simple....

love this one...again, simple but so cute. the middle of the poinsettias have a little dab o' glitter in them. i used the season of joy stamp set.

simple, little gift certificate holder.

and i mean SIMPLE! i just used an envelope, sealed it, used the scallop edge punch on the top, decorated with razzleberry lemonade designer paper, etc. and voila! i made these as a "thank you" for my club members.

hope you all had a great weekend!
