Elegant Christmas

1:00 PM

Everlasting Life is one of the newest stamp sets with a scriptural theme. It has such elegant fonts and beautiful passages for several occasions. This simple Christmas card was made for a unit swap earlier this fall.

**The opaque pearls add an extra-special touch to any project.

Altered Canvas

1:00 PM

Artist canvases make great wall-hangings when you cover them with beautiful papers! Add a family photo and they make a great, easy gift. Even though the Veranda papers I used in this photo are retired, the idea works with any of our wonderful paper packs.

Holiday Planner/Album

1:00 PM

I am very fortunate to have a group of great gals who meet to scrap and share ideas regularly. To show my appreciation I made each of them a Holiday Planner/Album using a 2-pocket school folder.

The first photo shows the outside of the planner folded and tied with ribbon.

Next is the planner opened once. These pages have mats for list or photos.

Here is the planner opened all the way. The pockets hold tags for wish lists, card lists, menu ideas, photos or whatever you'd like.

I used Jingle papers on red folders because the Tulip red in Jingle was a great match for the shade of red of the folders I found.

Christmas Tea

At our holiday unit get-together, our awesome director, Margi, shared this fun project. It would make a great, quick gift for several people on your list!

Two inside pockets hold their favorite tea bags!

White Christmas

1:32 PM

Well here in MN we will definitely be having a white Christmas! Lots of snow already and temperatures that feel more like January!

This card was created with 'glitter snow' instead of the real thing! It uses Mistletoe papers and 'Snow Days' stamp set in the Roundabout design from Wishes. I love the classic elegance of the Mistletoe papers!

It might be hard to see on the photo, but the rooftops and trees have Stickles glitter glue on them.

1:24 PM

Well, I HAVE been creating...just not posting lately! I am very glad I have a good friend who reminds me when I'm being a slacker (thanks, Mary!) It's so nice to know people are still checking my blog :)

These photos show a notepad/pen holder that I made using CTMH Aspen Papers and 'A Sip' stamp set. Thanks go to Deb at withastampandasong.blogspot.com for the idea.
