His Place Craft Fair

Here are a few pictures of my tables at the His Place Craft Fair.  I've been coming to this Craft Fair for 4 years now - this is one of the reasons I decided to dive into my Stampin Up business!!  I love making hand-made crafts and thought this craft fair would be a great way to share that love with others!!  It has turned out to be that (and so much more!!).

Here's my good friend Brenda helping me out that day.  It was so nice to have her there with me!!

Here are Linda and Sabina working on their Make-n-Take card.....

Like I said, I love to make hand-made goodies...  And it's a great way to shop people what we do in my classes at the same time - most of these items are all things we've done in previous classes!!





I met so many wonderful ladies at this Craft Fair!!  I hope to see them soon at a class!!

Gift for Club Members!!

Here's a fun gift I'm giving to all of my Club Members this month....... 

If you participated in the All-Occasion Card Club, Scrapbook Club, 3D Project/Big Shot Club or In Color Club in October, you'll receive 2 yards of the Cherry Cobbler 1" Stitched Edge Grosgrain Ribbon!!  It's my way of saying "thank you" for participating in club each month!!  In fact, I have a couple of ladies who participated in more than one club, so they'll be receiving 2 yards of ribbon for each club they participated in!!

 I made the cute label using the Chalk Talk Bundle (stamp set and framelits).  This has been my "go-to" stamp set and framelit set this year - it is so versatile and easy to use!!  The background flourish piece was stamped in Chocolate Chip ink and then the "I'm so grateful there's you in the world" was stamped in Gumball Green Ink. This piece is punched out with the Extra-Large Oval Punch, and then I put a Gumball Green Decorative Label punch between the two pieces to offset them!!
What fun!!  Some great ribbon just in time for the holidays!!

3D Project/Big Shot Class/Club - Wednesday, October 30


Here are the fun projects we made at the 3D Project/Big Shot Class/Club this month!!

I decided it was time to get ready for some Holiday Gift-Giving!!

Our first project is a 6" wide white paper bag that is covered with the Season of Style Designer Series Paper.  Just cut your 12x12 sheet of DSP (you know you have a ton of DSP stashed away for that special occasion - just use it!!) in half and put one sheet on the front of the bag (fold the extra DSP, maybe about 2 inches inside the bag) and then put the other sheet on the back of the bag and fold the extra over the front part of the bag.  Next, we added small strip of Old Olive card-stock to the front flap to finish this edge. 

 Finally, we stamped "Just a Little Something for a Very Special Someone" from the Chalk Talk stamp set and then die-cut it with the coordinating Chalk Talk Framelits.  We added a mini flower with one of the punches from the Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack and put a Cherry Cobbler Candy Dot in the middle!

Season of Style Designer Series Paper  132340  $10.95
Chalk Talk Bundle  wood-mount  132731  $43.25
Chalk Talk Bundle  clear-mount  132730  $37.25
Itty Bitty Shapes Punch Pack  118309  $16.95
Regals Candy Dots  130932  $5.95
Our next project is a 4x6 cello bag covered in Season of Style Designer Series Paper.  The top of the bag is cut down to 5" tall, so that a 6x12 sheet of DSP can wrap all the way around the bag and still have a closing flap on top!  We added a couple of pieces of cardstock die-cut with the Deco Labels  Collection Framelits, then punched 4 pieces of card stock and DSP with the 2 3/8" scallop circle punch, scrunched those up and put them all together with a Basics Glimmer brad.  We also added a flag of Cherry Cobbler Chevron Ribbon to the embellishment!  This is the perfect envelope for giving cards, a gift-card or anything you like!



6x8 Large Cello Bags 102210  $4.95



Deco Labels Collection Framelits  130102  $24.95




2 3/8" Scallop Circle Punch  118874  $16.95


Basics Glimmer Brads  121003  $4.95


Cherry Cobbler 3/4" Chevron Ribbon  130012  $8.95


And here is our last project......

It's another cute way to give a gift-card or money or maybe just a cute note.....





The little note card (measuring 2 3/4 x 3") fits perfectly inside the holder.  We made the holder with the Deco Labels Collection Framelits.  Just fold a piece of DSP in half and lay it under the framelit, being careful not to put the bottom of the folded piece all the way to the bottom of the framelit.  This way it will die-cut the edges but leave the folded piece at the bottom intact - makes the perfect gift-card or note-card holder!

Next, we stamped one of the ornaments from the Christmas Collectibles Stamp set, punched it out with the coordinating Christmas Ornament Punch and layered it on top of a 1 3/4" Cherry Cobbler circle punch and a 2 3/8" Crumb Cake scallop circle punch.  Finally, we tied a bow around the holder with the Victoria Crochet Trim.

Christmas Collectibles Bundle  wood-mount  133282  $31.95
Christmas Collectibles Bundle  clear-mount  133283  $27.95


5/8" Victoria Crochet Trim  118481  $6.95



 

We stamped the notecard with the Naughty or Nice stamp from the Very Merry Tags set (once on white cardstock and punched it out the the Oval Punch and then again on Crumb Cake cardstock and punched that with the Decorative Label punch), added a strip of Season of Style DSP and some linen thread. 




Very Merry Tags Stamp Set  wood-mount  130393  $24.95

As always, I hope you enjoyed these projects!!  Just let me know if you'd like to join us at class in November.  Our next class will be held on Wednesday, November 20.

Hope to see you soon!!
