Roomie Gifts

Hello Stamper!  It is a tradition that when you attend a Stampin' Up! event, you make gifts for your roomies!  In our case, my team all made gifts for each other!  It is such a fun thing to do and you get some really cute gift ideas!

 This is a cute little carrier that Linda made us.  Look what is inside:

 Super cute huh???

 Karen made us these fun things!  The Just a Note is a covering for post it notes so we could mark up our new catalogs!  These were both inside a bag of candy!

 Julie covered these fun nuggets for us!  Gotta love all of the chocolate!

 Kathy made these darling calendars for us.

 Lisa made these great pouches for us.  There were tea bags inside and the test tube, from the October Paper Pumpkin kit, is filled with granulated honey!  Yum!

 These adorable coffee cups were made by Pat!  I love it!  And it is filled with chocolate too!  

I made tags for our bags.  You can see mine in this picture with my special bag from Center Stage!  

When we are a room full of women, all with the exact same bag, it is nice to have tags so you can tell your bag apart from others!  I used the Layering Oval Framelits for the base, the initials were cut using the Large Letters Framelits, and I spelled out each persons name and stamped with the Labeler Alphabet set!  

Thanks for stopping by!

Elephant birthday card

Hello Stampers!  This past weekend my baby turned 20 yeard old!  So hard to believe but I am so proud of her and all that she has accomplished so far!  Can't wait to see what her future holds for her!  

She absolutely loves elephants, so of course I made her an elephant card!

I found this cute card in the Silhouette store.  It was so easy to download, cut, and put together!  Amie even said "I can't believe you still have ideas for elephant cards!"  Little does she know, there are lots of elephants in the Silhouette store!

The designer series paper I put on the front of the card is from the A Little Foxy designer series paper stack!  So cute!  

Thanks for stopping by!  Today I'm going to play with my new Stitched Shapes Framelits!  

OnStage stash and make n' takes!

Hello Stampers!  Time for some more pics from the Stampin' Up! OnStage I attended last weekend.  We really did have a great time and look at this stash I brought home!

My favorite thing was this gorgeous bag I received on Friday evening when I went to the leadership event!

 It is gorgeous!  

And this cute little tag was attached:

 Sorry it's a little blurry!

Now, would you like to see the make n' take projects we did?  

Inside of the card:

Are you excited to see all of this gorgeous must have new products???  Just wait until January!

Paper Pumpkin banner

Hello Stampers!  After the fabulous OnStage event over the weekend, I spend a couple of days with my mom.  I love it when we get together and craft!  This time I brought along my October paper pumpkin kit with the idea that we would make banners!  I saw this banner on a blog hop and knew I had to make a similar one for myself!  Here is a picture of my completed banner:

Here is a little closer:

And a close up of a couple of the pieces:

 

Paper Pumpkin is a monthly subscription kit that is delivered right to your door every month!  It is always a suprise!  Some month's it is cards, some months it is packaging, and some month's it is home decor.  However, there are tons of alternative ideas online in case you aren't happy with your kit!  I love looking at all of the alternative projects that people come up with!  I even have a Facebook group exclusive for my Paper Pumpkin subsribers!  I post alternative ideas that I find places!

 Friday evening was a very nice dinner and presentation for leaders only.  We had a great dinner, starting with a cheese and nut tray, and a fabulous chocolate cake for dessert!  

 Aren't these little jars the cutest things that we at each of our place settings!

Saturday was the main event that was open to all demonstrators!  There were display boards full of projects made with new products.
