Frosty the Snowman!



I'm super duper excited to share a brand new snowman with you!
You may remember a few years ago my daughter sold her snowman tutorial to purchase coats, hats, & food for a local homeless center...well this year our family is raising money to benefit the Veterans Affairs organization in Sacramento. We became acquainted with them a few weeks ago when my company organized a donation of canned goods & non perishable food items in honor of Veterans Day.
It's always a joy to help the community especially those that have served in the Military!

Christmas Pines Stamp a Stack!

Hello Friends!
Long time no see but today I have a couple of Christmassy projects to share with you! 
 
But first lets talk about all the amazing Stampin up sales going on...
Click Here to see my November Newsletter!
__________________________________
 Ok on with the show...
Stamp a Stacks are my favorite!
I enjoy watching everyone busy creating lots of cards for their friends & family!
 
This year my hubby had to work over time since he is my class "Big Shotter" & I fell in love with the Christmas Pines dies. He was such a trooper & cut 40+ of each tiny piece to create these projects...

I hosted 2 classes & the second class was smaller so they got to choose to do the gift bag or a gift card envelope.
Both were embellished the same.


Everyone's creations came out beautifully & I can't wait to plan our
Birthday Card Stamp a Stack for January! I'll be back soon to share more of the holiday cards we created.
 
Hugs & Holiday Blessings!

Soda Pop Card!

Hey Y'all!
I recently went back to work after being home with my girls for 10+ years so my crafty time has been pretty scarce but I am excited to share a little fun idea with you today!
 
If you follow me on Instagram you already got a sneak peek but here is the card I created along with a quick video showing you how to make your own pop can!
 
 
FYI- I didn't realize I had used a couple of retired products but that red foil paper is on the clearance rack right now & hopefully you have the white staz on ink in your stash!
