SU Festive Flurry Ornament Kit and a Christmas Banner

I wanted to share this sweet little banner my girls made at Stamp Camp last week in case you were on the fence about these kits.

We had a blast working on this 3D project from the

Build a Banner Simply Created Kit #133507 $19.95.

The kit includes pennants and accessories for creating custom banners. Each kit contains 18 5″ x 7″ blank canvas paper pennants, 6 ea. of 3 designs; 9′ of jute twine; alphabet and image stencils; Stampin’ Spritzer. See it on p. 4 and 12 of the current Holiday catalog.

I used the Festive Flurry Stamp Set at the top of the banners when I made my design. What a great stamp set with 4 varying sizes of snowflakes with coordinating framelits!

Item # 131781

SU Mixed Bunch

Happy 1st Anniversary to Dynamic Duos Challenge Blogspot #52!

I celebrated with them by using Challenge #42 Garden Green and Daffodil Delight to create a little gift for someone. This water bottle with lemonade is the perfect way to say I am thinking of you or thankful for you…maybe for a teacher, a bus driver, your postal worker- think of all the people you interact with on a daily or monthly basis. I picked Dasani water because it has a Garden Green colored lid;)

And, CASology #44 this week is BLOOM, and this project is so CAS I am going to share it over there too!!

SU Word Play Mother’s Day Candle Gift

You have already seen the card I made for my wonderfully awesome mom last month but…here’s a little gift to go with the card. We made these at Stamp Class as a gift for a mother or a friend…or for yourself as some gals said they were keeping it!! I used the Tea for Two Designer Series Paper and used coordinating colors to embellish a sweet blue candle. One friend said she was going to use this idea for shower favors…

SU Two Tags Die isn’t just for Christmas…

I love all the holidays and the sweets that go along with them! With Valentine’s Day right around the corner…there are such cute treats popping up all over the Papercrafting World. You have probably seen a lot over the past week and this post won’t be any different. I saw this cute little lollipop holder at Leadership Conference last month. I am sorry I could not get the name of who made the particular one I saw but I have been seeing them everywhere;) I decided these would be perfect favors for Stamp Camp tonight and tomorrow so I used the colors from Dynamic Duos #38 this week to create them.

Line up as shown against the left side of Simply Scored Scoring Tool and score at 5/8, 2 1/4, 4 1/2, and 4 3/4 inches.
Fold on score lines, punch hole midline between the 4 1/2 and 4 3/4 inch scores for lollipop to stand.
Place lollipop inside. Fold 5/8 in. portion inside of the triangle when it is assembled.
Decorate as desired…Have Fun!!
