I think it's supposed to be an ornament for the tree or even a gift tag, so I put it on my SU tree.

After! An awesome vintage tag and candy holder!
This was my day so our organizer made something for us so when our day came we didn't have to open our own swap.

This was how I packaged mine. Pretty huh? lol
Here is what is inside. Snowman soup minus the marshmallows! Yum

Until next time, happy stamping!

I am participating in an advent swap with other demonstrators again this year. We don't have a full 24 people participating so we are starting today, December 10th!

After I opened it. It's a sparkly pen! The sparkle is around the ink barrel instead of on the outside!

Until next time, happy stamping!

Stamping Extravaganza

On October 20th I held my bi-annual Stamping Extravaganza!

Here's a shot of the group working hard!

One of the 3d items we made. This was made with the Fancy Favour box and contains hot chocolate, marshmallows, peppermint stick and Hershey kisses

The other 3d item. Santa nugget box! Below is a picture of the inside! I also made some of these for my craft sales.

 
I don't know why I don't have pictures of the other items, but we also made a lamp shade from vellum (two actually) that fits over a wine glass, plus two cards.
 
Until next time, happy stamping!

Santa Bars!

These Aero bars are just like the Penguin ones, but dressed up as Santas. So I guess not like the Penguin ones! lol


The hardest part of these ones is punching the scallop on each side of the white cardstock!

Until next time, happy stamping!

Invasion of the Penguins?

No, just more craft fair stuff!

I found this idea on someone's blog (can't remember who...if you please let me know) and had to make some for my craft sales! Easy and cute! I used Aero bars as Hershey Milk Chocolate bars are really hard to find in my neck of the woods!


Until next time, happy stamping!

100 Melted Snowmen...

Well, I can't show you any pictures of the cards we made on World Card Making day because I sold them before I could take pictures of them! lol

But have you ever wondered what 100 melted snowmen would look like? Well wonder no more!

 Here is a close up. I actually made 300 of these little buggers! What for you ask? Why for my upcoming craft sales! They are the little toppers for the candy bags that I made this year...and will never do again! They took way too long!
 Here is one full of bubble gum
 Here is one full of M & M's
And this one is full of Pixie Sticks

I also filled 120 of these bags with pencils. A great alternative to candy! 

Until next time, happy stamping!
