A Special Memory

I wanted to share this with you today, because it reminds me of how precious life is and how people are more important than things.......

This card was created by a dear lady, she saved these pins from clothing that she had to have cleaned after her home caught fire - I love that she created something so special from something that could have been so tragic.

When Mama Julia told me about her fire, the first words she said were "we are so blessed", I couldn't believe that anyone who's house had caught fire could consider themselves "blessed" - later I found out that the walls of Julia's house were on fire and she was inside, completely unaware of the fire creeping silently around her, behind the walls - it was a neighbor who raised the alarm and saved this amazing lady - so you see, this treasure that Julia made, really is a "treasure" ...and now you know why I just had to share this wonderful creation.

Thank you "Mama" Julia, I will treasure this always ;-)

Have a safe and happy Holiday weekend everyone!

Sweet Translucent Evelope Book

Just before Christmas our stamp club had a wonderful gathering and we all shared sweet treats that we'd made - everyone wanted each other's recipes and so we decided that our first project of 2011 would be a recipe book where we could share all our wonderful ideas.

We used our fabulous new build a cupcake punch, along with FREE Sale-A-Bration ribbon, buttons and Designer Paper - Have you earned your FREE Sale-A-Bration goodies yet?

Click HERE to find out how!

Each member of the group brought along a picture of their treat and the recipe and now we have a wonderful collection of recipes to go along with our special memories of our Holiday 2010 gathering.

My next plan is to make some of these cut books for new moms, so that they can create simple but special memory books.

Thank you as always to my wonderful stamp club - you inspire me every day!

On a personal note, please accept my apologies for the lack of posts this year. We began homeschooling our son in January and so life has been a little different. Home school is going really well and the biggest and most unexpected bonus has been a huge improvement in our little man's health.

I promise to try and update my blog more often as we settle into our new routine! Thank you to everyone who has called, emailed and written to offer their support and understanding, it means the world to us!

I've been meaning to show you this......

Each year when we trick or treat, the children visit a particular house. Last year they were introduced to a new kitten called Pearl. This year they made a treat to take for Pearl.

While The Turkey Is Roasting.......

Every Thanksgiving while the turkey is roasting, we used to make a gingerbread house with the children, but my son has lots of food allergies and so it isn't quite as much fun any more, well it wasn't until we came up with making a gingerbread house without actually using food and now thanks to Decor Accents - Design-a-House #120911 $5.95 - Holiday Mini Page 37, our joint family creativity is back in full swing - Why don't you make this the year that you begin this fun tradition too....

You know those little school photos that you send out, wouldn't it be cute to tuck them inside this cute card?

These little boxes are soooooo easy to make with my Big Shot and the Candy Wrapper Die - No cutting or scoring required, it does it all in seconds! Holiday Mini Page 10 #120890

Place Cards or Treat Boxes

There are so many different things you can do with these cute boxes and you won't believe how easy they are to make using your Big Shot and the new Candy Wrapper Die 120890 - it's in the Holiday Mini page 10.

Imagine putting a little message of thanks in them and using them as place cards for Thanksgiving, or adding numbers to the front and using them as a countdown for a special event, perhaps even as an Advent idea - Oh the possibilities!

Super Sweet Santa

The Holiday Mini Is Here

A few weeks ago I posted raving about the new Holiday Mini - now I have to post again to let you know how popular the Candy Countdown Calendar Kits are - I showed it to some wonderful ladies yesterday and they couldn't resist them - one lady ordered four kits as gifts - another is using at as her craft for the children while the Thanksgiving turkey cooks, several others are sending them as gifts to Europe because they are so unique and light to mail...

- Why am I telling you all this? Because Candy Countdown Calendar Kits are only available "while supplies last" and if they are flying off the shelf for everyone else, and you'd like to place an order, please, please don't wait - I'd hate for you to miss out.

Also check out our fabulous designer series paper, you have to see it to believe that it's that great. Recordable greeting cards, musical greeting cards. The cutest stamps, glitter, accessories to name but a few......

Below really is one of my personal favorites, I just couldn't help ordering this fun way to celebrate Advent. When this fun kit arrived, I couldn't believe the quality. I knew the moment that I saw it, I'd order it for my Niece who turned 12 in October, she loved it, it was light to ship and my daughter had so much fun creating my kit, I know my Niece will love it too. $19.95 includes everything except adhesive Candy Countdown Calendar Kit #120926.

You can switch out a couple of the background papers and use this fun kit to count down just about anything.

The boxes are not too small either, plenty of room for treats and everything is pre-cut for you.

Remember, as with any kit like this, it will be available "while supplies last" and then we will be unable to order any more.

Hop on over to http://www.elizabethreeve.stampinup.net/ to view the fabulous new Holiday Mini and remember to choose me as your demonstrator when you place your online order so that you receive my preferred prices on merchandise and shipping.

I love that Stampin' Up! now sell some single stamps.

I just couldn't resist this "Sweet Snow globe" stamp Holiday Mini Page 41 $8.95 120868

I love the look of dry embossing, but I don't like how time consuming it is - Now I'm done in seconds thanks to my Big Shot. I used the new Textured Impressions Embossing Folder Northern Flurry 120902 $7.95 - Holiday Mini Page 26.

Treat Cups for the glass - Page 170 of the Idea Book 116802 - $2.95 for 12 and they come heart shaped too!

No cutting out circles here - the 1 3/4" circle punch is the perfect fit - Page 202 of the Idea Book $16.96 #119850

Color combination is Bashful Blue, Old Olive, Chocolate Chip and Real Red

Halloween Stamp Club - Repeat

I posted this a while back, but since we are so close to Halloween, I wanted to share it with you one more time.....

This card was created for my ladies totally, totally inspired by a box of absolutely fabulous new products that I received in the mail from Stampin' Up!

When I saw the witches boots and tights in the stamp set "Wicked Cool" Page 23 I knew I had to order it and of course I had to order the coordinating ribbon......

Now what's Halloween without a few bats and an owl? I had to order our fabulous new Bitty Bat punch and Two Step Owl punch......

I created a notch for the owl to sit on, so that he stands up when the card opens.

One of the things that surprised me was the reaction my ladies had to using our new clear stamps, the loved them and were genuinely impressed with how well they stamped. If you think you know how clear stamps stamp, think again - Stampin' Up! have hit the jackpot once again.

I've already switched to clear stamps and after the original investment of the clear blocks, I'm now looking forward to huge savings when I order stamps, since they are a lot less expensive and I'm already loving how easy they are to store in their unified DVD size boxes - Fabulous!

Thank you stamp club for giving me a reason to have so much fun being creative with all my wonderful new "toys".

Sweet Centers Halloween

These are the cards my children are giving their teachers last year. If you pull on the little handle, then there is a window on the inside of the card that slides up to give access to the candy without having to take the entire card apart.

I love these sweet treat cups - they're really inexpensive. I'll have a fun Holiday idea for you to use these for Christmas, so make sure you stop by.

I even love using the empty packaging for fun projects when you've used up all the little cups.

Francinestien

I know I show her to you every year, but I just couldn't resist showing her to you again - You'll need a Big Shot and the Top Note Die for this one.

We had to name our little friend below Francinestien because she has pink hair.

This is so much fun to make and sooooo simple - isn't she cute?

Fall or Halloween Owls

Big Shot and the ever flexible Top Note Die

These are just too much fun not to show you!

Halloween Treat Collection

I'll try to make this my last post using Batty For you - well for a few minutes anyway!
