Christmas Stamp-A-Stack Samples

Hi Stampers! Here are the pictures of the projects from Sunday's Christmas Stamp-A-Stack, as promised. Everyone had the opportunity to make 10 cards, 2 each of five designs, plus a small Winter House to put the cards in and give the whole set as a gift or use the box as a decoration.

This was my first intensive hands-on class so there were a few glitches here and there, but overall I think everyone had fun and enjoyed the projects we made. All projects were made possible because I won one of Andrea Walford's Class Planners for Demonstrators! She had some blog candy not too long ago and I was one of the lucky winners of her Punch Pals Class Planner! :o) I've got to tell you that her planners are very detailed and well thought out, I highly recommend them. I belive she also has some available for customers as well, not just demonstrators. If you are interested you can check out Andrea's blog here.

If there is enough interest with my customers, I hope to be able to offer more of these classes in addition to in-home workshops, in the future. So be on the look out for that. Okay, enough talk, now on to the projects! ;o)

Here's a group shot of four of the cards we made and the little Winter House. All of these particular projects were made using the Punch Pals Set and the cards measure 4x4, and we made matching envelopes as well! :o)

These two cards were made using the snowman image from the Punch Pals set and the Frosty Day Designer Series Paper in the Holiday Mini Catalog. Aren't the cute? You can't tell in the picutre but we added Dazzling Diamonds to the buttons on the Snowman and the berries on is hat.

These next two cards use the Christmas Tree and Gifts images also from the Punch Pals Stamp Set. Again, there is Dazzling Diamonds on the star and the ornaments on the tree but you can't tell in the picture. Sorry about that!

Isn't this Little Winter House adorable! I love it so much! :o) The cards fit nicely inside the box, along with the coordinating envelopes. What a great project! I will try to take a better picture of this because the "Snow Hills" also have some Dazzling Diamonds on them and they look so sparkly and beautiful with it. The Snowman peeking through the window is actually one of the Snowman cards from the pictures above, peeking through. Hee,hee.

This card came together rather quickly and was inspired by a card also made by Andrea Walford. The snowflake is from the Little Felt Flurries pack from the Holiday Mini Catalog, along with the Brown Felt Ribbon and the Ski Slope Designer Series Paper. I added Dazzling Diamonds to the snowflake by using the Tombow Multipurpose Adhesive. In the center of the Snowflake I place a red rhinestone brad from the Circle Fire Rhinestone Brads Set.

Here is one of the doorprizes I gave away yesterday. Sorry but I don't have a picture of the other little notebook I made, but it's similar only that it used the Frosty Day Designer Series Paper instead of the Ski Slope, and the image was the little Penguin from the Punch Pals Set. I gotta tell you, I really love this set! :o) This notebook was a complete CASE of another notebook I made here.

My Stampin' Cat!

Hi Stampers! I have been really busy with the holidays and preparing for my Christmas Stamp-A-Stack that I had today so I have been neglecting my blog. So, I just have a quick post today with pictures of my Stampin' Cat, Angel! I don't know why but every time I set up my table to stamp he needs to sit himself right in the middle of it and either take a nap or walk all over my supplies, occasionally swatting a few things here and there. So I decided to finally take a picture of him interrupting my stamping. Hope you enjoy looking at the pictures and tomorrow I will post the pictures of the cards from my Christmas Stamp-A-Stack.

Have a Good Night and Happy Stampin'!
