Little gifts...

2012-01-26T06:00:00-05:00

Good Morning Stampers,

Hope you are having a good week. Today I wanted to show you sweet note pads I created using some retired Simply Scrappin' Kits.

I am a notebook freak. I absolutely love notebooks ~ I think because I am a list keeper! I have lists for everything: things I am thankful for, to do list, project list, you name it I can show you my list for it!!!!

These notebooks are super easy to create ~

This is a great project for all those scaps you have. Notebooks come in all sizes and you can cover them to match anyones style.

They make great little 'just because' gifts!

Hope you will give them a try.

Getting ready for Valentine's Day...

2012-01-25T06:00:00-05:00

Good Morning Stampers,

It's Wednesday and my favorite day of the week.

Today I wanted to share with you the card I created for my Stamp Club last month. Each month my Stamp Club Members meet for a free stamp class!

We started to do a card swap each month. A card swap is when everyone creates a card and makes enough of that card to give one to each person in our Club. They in return get one from each of the members. So you go home with a bunch of different cards! Great for ideas and to use throughout the month.

The card swap is done at our free class each month and all my local club members participate.

The card below is the card I created for my swap in January ~

I created it using the Cards & Envelopes Set ~ Designer Cuts from the Occasions Mini Catalog item # 125414 ~ page # 9

I just cut the front of the Heart designer cut design and mounted it on Real Red and sprayed a little Blushing Bride Smooch Spritz!

Really quick and easy to create!

If you have not received a Occasions Mini Catalog yet - let me know.

Happy Stamping ~

Short and Sweet...

2012-01-24T06:00:00-05:00

Good Morning Stampers,

Happy Tuesday ! It feels so good to be blogging today. I want to share with you a card that my Stamp Club Members created at our January Club Class.

This is not my original design. I spotted this card while surfing the web late one night and I am sorry that I don't have a name to give you. If you recognize this design as yours - let me know I would love to give you credit. It is a fun card to create.

This is our version of the one I spotted on the internet.

We used Short & Sweet which can be found on page # 166 of the Idea Book & Catalog.

Check out these other versions I created using the same stamp set.

A great stamp set that can be used for almost any occasion you have!

Snowflake #2...

2012-01-23T10:11:13-05:00

Good Morning Stampers,

I hope this morning finds you all well. It has been a long time since I have posted here and I am sorry. This was a sad Fall for me. I lost 2 very dear Aunts who I grew up with. An Aunt on my dads side of the family and an Aunt on my moms. Each lived in the same town as me my whole life - even now as I still live in the town I grew up in. November and December were filled with a lot of sadness but also of some wonderful memories and visits with family.

I hope you all enjoyed creating memories this Christmas with your family and friends. It is my favorite time of the year.

This weekend we got our first snow of 2012! It came Friday night into Saturday and wasn't too bad as far as snow storms go. Only about 4 inches - and very light powdery snow! Is that a word? ~ powdery?

Anyhoot it put me in the mood for a project I had wanted to do before Christmas. I wanted to create vinyl snow flakes to decorate my windows.

Stampin' Up! sells Decor Element Sheets (vinyl sheets) for the Big Shot. These sheets can be found on page # 216 of the Idea Book and Catalog.

CLICK ON THE LINK BELOW TO VIEW THEM

Decor Element Sheets

Here is what I created for my windows this weekend ~

White vinyl Snowflakes

Using the Orignals Die Snowflake #2 (item # 113460)

I created 8 Snowflakes for this back door. As you can see I cut one so that it was in 2 window frames!

I know they are a little hard to see in these photos.

Here is a shot of a few of them with a dark blanket behind the window.

THis project was fun and easy to create.

I hope you give the Decore Element Sheets a try.

Don't forget Valentine's Day is just a few week away.

Hearts would look so cute windows and doors!

Good Mornign Stampers,

I am so sorry that I have been missing from my blog for so long. It has been a sad Fall for me. I lost 2 beloved Aunts. I grew up close to both of them - they lived in the same town. One lived next door my whole life - up to this day. My husband and I were fortunate enough to have purchased my grandparents farm home as our own so I live surrounded by my dads side of the family. We all grew up on the same street in our town - 35 cousins! It was wonderful. My moms side also lived in town but not on the same street. We are a close knit family and we were able to have our children enjoy that by living here too.

I just can't belive today is Christmas Eve. 2011 was so full for us. I am working on a My Digital Studio project - kind of a year in review. As soon as it is done I will post it for you to see.

Today I wanted to take a minute to thank you all for all your support this past year - personally and professionally. You all have touch my life in some way and I am so thankful for that.

I have a few pictures to show you of some of the things we have been doing around here to

catch you up ~

Our annual tradition to cut down our Christmas Tree on Thanksgiving weekend - The tree directly behind Matt and Samantha is our Christmas Tree before we cut her down. Yes, she is a female tree!

I participate in a couple cookie swaps every year. This cookie swap we bring our cookies already packaged up all pretty! I created the ornament on top using the big shot and some Stampin' Up! punches. It made the trays looks so festive! This year 11 of us were able to attend and we had a blast. I think 8 of us grew up together and graduated from the same high school - (not all in the same year). One of the perks of living where you grew up!

My cookie this year was the spritz - I made green trees and red flowers!

I love the glitter heart cheeks! On the back I dated it - Cookie Swap 2011

Next my mom and I (that is her at the sink) turned my kitchen into a bakery and bake our annual cookies - about 20 different kinds this year. We package them up and give them to family and friends each year.

This is one of my sons favorite cookies - Angel Kiss cookies!

My parents have carried on our traditional fish dinner and we just love it. This is a shot of as many of my parents grandchildren and great grandchildren that could make it this year. We had a wonderful time and really missed those that were unable to make it.

The night has a few traditions - one of which is Santa comes to bring a little gift for all the good little girls and boys!

OH WHAT FUN!

Another tradition I have in my home is the Gingerbread Houses! Each year Matt and Samantha create Gingerbread houses - take a look at this years version ~

Love them!

Well other things have gone on but I need to start my day. We are off to Long Island today to spend Christmas Eve with my husbands family.

I look forward to sharing more with you. Please some back and check in to see what's happening!

Wishing you all a wonderful day. Please stay safe and enjoy your friends and families during this most Joyous time of Year!

Blessings ~

Annette
