Fun Punch Project

Well here is the project I have been working on lately. It is that time of year when you have Christmas Exchange Parties and Downline Parties. I decided this would be a fun gift to have. This will save the time of trouble of trying to figure out if a punch will work. I usually end up having to go and find the punch, punch out a piece of paper and then place it over what it is I am working with. This is a take off from the Designer Series Paper Sampler. Each page is laminated but you can easily see what each punch will do or if it will fit over a certain saying or stamp design without all the extra effort. Yeah!!!! Of course I will keep one for myself. I hope they like them. Thanks for looking.

Christmas Gift Class

In a small cello bag we put 8 tags using Snow Swirled, Patterned Pines & Delightful Decorations Stamp sets along with the Ornament Punch! How fun is that!


This is just a regular envelope made into a pouch and using the Christmas Jingle Simply Scrappin' Kit and Christmas Punch Stamp Set

Last is a box with 8 mints with gift tags attached or you could hang them on the tree as an ornament which guests can take home with them. We used the Serene Snowflakes Stamp set.

We had a lot of fun. It was a kit to make 3 different gift ideas.

Annual Christmas Card Class

This year we use the Christmas Jingle Simply Scrappin' Kit. The class is Saturday, November 7th at my house from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. You will have supplies to make 20 cards with envelopes. Of course you can make way more than that with what you get. We were able to get 44 cards. The cost is $20. Please let me know ASAP if you would like a kit so I can make sure I have enough ordered in. You will need to bring scissors and adhesive.

If you are out of state and interested, please let me know and I can arrange to mail them to you and then you just have to assemble them.

Latest Shoe Box Swap Samples

Things have been kind of busy over the last few months. We had Regionals here in Albuquerque and I also had a Stamp Camp. I promise to post some samples from them. Just this last week we got together and had a shoe box swap. It was nice to visit and stamp with each other. I think there were some nice cards and I wanted to share them with you. I hope you like them.
