Here’s a couple more projects from The Cozy Craft Retreat!
This project was a CASE from Chiaki Haverstick! She used it last year with a different stamp set. As soon as I decided to put the current stamp set,” Itty Bitty Christmas” one of the swag bag gifts for the retreat, I KNEW this card would be PERFECT!!!
Swapping is something that happens each year. Here we are swapping, trick or treat style! LOL Our winning swapper was Jennifer Stretton! Here is her winning card!

Here are a couple more projects that we made at the retreat! They will be available in the tutorial for sale later this week!
We did a couple non-Christmas cards and this was one of them. I LOVE my sweets, that’s for sure! This donut box is “3-D”, but will flatten to fit nicely inside a regular envelope! There is a window sheet on the top.
Love the snow-globe card, filled with sparkly snow!
Tutorial for purchase available next week of all the Cozy Craft Retreat projects!
Thanks for visiting my blog! Hope you are getting in the spirit of Christmas card making! Please let me know if I can help you with any of your stamping needs!
I’ll post more on Monday, when we are back in town! My son competes in paintball, so we are headed out of state to a tournament!
I’m so excited to share with you the projects that we made at the Cozy Craft Retreat!
Be sure to check back next week, when the PDF will be for sale with instructions, photos and dimensions on how to make all of these projects! Thanks for visiting my blog!
This is the Halloween Break Away Class we did at the Cozy Craft Retreat! We created 5 Halloween projects!
You can purchase the tutorial and learn how to make these 5 projects, along with all the links of miscellaneous products (cauldron, broom, potion bottle, etc.)
This PDF is free for online orders of $50 or more from my website HERE.
Here’s the link for the projects!
Here is a WICKED cauldron, complete with broom pen. There is a miniature potion bottle located on the front of the cauldron
This coffin box has a fancy feather in it, along with a plastic spider to make the coffin even more spooky!
The BOO letters are raised up to make them stand out even more. This glitter frame is 3″x2″.
Fun fold card featuring products from the holiday catalog!
I used the “eclipse” technique, which raises the letters in the word “Wicked” to give it a pop!
This PDF will not be included in the Cozy Craft Retreat PDF next week, as this class was a “stand alone” class at the retreat. Stay tuned for more tutorials!
Where do I even begin to recap this past weekend at the 4th Annual Cozy Craft Retreat that took place in Phoenix, AZ! We had a little over 60 attendees – and that is the MAX this place can hold! The event sold out in 2 days! Thank you, ladies, for attending this event! For those of you who ordered kits (which are also sold out), I will have them in the mail to you this week!
I will be sharing photos this week of the projects we created, and next week I will have the PDF available for purchase for those of you who weren’t able to attend or purchase a kit. That way you can recreate the projects if you’d like. The PDF will have many photos and all the dimensions for all 12 of the projects we made. Watch for the PDF that goes on sale next week!
With any event, there’s no way it can get pulled off without HELP! My partner in crime was Susanna Cunningham. This gal has put in countless hours to help me – we have been working on this for months, and I am so thankful that she is always so willing to help me! Especially at crunch time! She lives in IL and was willing to come in early to help me during CRUNCH TIME!
There were MANY worker-bees I am so thankful for! THANK YOU, also, to: Amy Stevens, Becky Costello, Chris Brouwer, Corinne Bethel, Denise Schulte, Janice Clegg, Jeanne Moss, Jennie Portonova, Kim Sinclair, Pat Brannin, Patti Galegher, Sue Parker, and Sue Rehm!!! #couldn’tdoitwithoutyou
Here is the room set up
Each gal got a swag bag, filled with new products. I found the gray swag bags HERE.
Everyone also got a “Totally Tiffany” tote bag (to the left of the gray bag in the photo above). The gals could organize their projects and put them in the tote organizer when they were finished. I personalized the top of them them with glossy black vinyl, cut with my silhouette machine. The Tiffany bags can be found HERE (they are the “Denise” styled tote).
Inside the swag bag, they received full packages of the following products from the NEW holiday catalog, along with 12 make and takes. I will continue sharing the projects on my blog this week!
The name tag on the swag bag was made from a wood piece, with their name on it. After the retreat, they can hang this on their Christmas tree as an ornament!
Here are some more photos behind the scenes:
I also couldn’t do this retreat without the support of my amazing hubby. He is always so willing to help and his creative mind usually can find a faster easier way for me to do things!
Here he is drilling holes in the wood slices (I now know you can purchase these with holes in them already! Shhhhh!!! Don’t tell him! LOL)
When Donna Griffith fliew in for our team meeting, it was only fitting that I create a gift from AZ! It was so fun to put this together! This AZ sure is missing the retired stamp set “Flowering Desert”. That is a must have in my stash! Some stamp sets are just too hard to part with!
This card was CASED from Tami Hewlett, just added a little “welcome” sentiment from the Well Written dies (which are current!)
I sure love this gal! She was so fun to have at our team meeting!
Donna Griffith came into town for our weSTAMP meeting this week! I was blessed to spend extra time with her! I took her to my favorite lunch spot in AZ, the English Rose Tea Room!
Donna encouraged and shared many fun and exciting things with us that evening! What a treat to have her there with us! We were so caught up in the moment, we forgot to get a team photo with her!!!!
Donna made a special gift for me, handstamped cards in this adorable pouch! I need to figure out how she made this!
She also blessed the team with a handmade gift – she dressed up packages of doilies! Isn’t that adorable! She used our new Designer Series Paper, Frosted Foliage!
The new holiday catalog can be ordered from now! We’ve been waiting for this day! You can view it online HERE!
Check out the BUY 3 GET 1 FREE special going on with our Designer Series Paper! You will see the selections below that are included in the sale!
If you need Halloween treats, you won’t want to miss this Paper Pumpkin!!!!! You can subscribe HERE, but you have to do it by Sept. 10th!
LOTS in store!
Be sure to get in on my Creative U. projects! You can take a class with me LIVE (I’m in AZ), or place and order of at least $35 or more from my online store, and you will get the PDFs and kits so you can make them, too!
I’m SUPER excited to present to you a NEW WAY of doing classes with me! You will be able to create with me LIVE or ONLINE!
Please watch the video and that will explain how my classes will work, in more detail.
