Gingerbread and Coffee Gift Card Holder

This is one of my very favorite folds because I like to give gift cards as gifts.

Super simple to make! Here are some helpful hints:

Spooky Cat Card and Fun Halloween Activities with Stella!

Here’s another card using the Spooky Cat bundle! It’s not too late to get this stamp set, punch and paper!

  • The Basic Black and Very Vanilla cardstock both have been embossed with the Pinewood Planks embossing folder.
  • Larger square is 1 3/4″ x 1 3/4″
  • Smaller square is 1 5/8″ x 1 5/8″
  • Cat eyes are black rhinestone jewels
  • This is a great layout to use for any season! I love how it showcases the Designer Series Paper!
  • Recipe at the end of post.

I love baking with my grandkids. Here’s Stella and I making some spider cookies! They are just peanut butter cookies with Reeses peanut butter cups in the middle! Because the cookie is hot out of the oven, it will melt it a bit and it will look smooth. They were so much fun!

We also made a skeleton out of Qtips! Thanks, Pinterest, for the idea!

Thanksgiving Card – Labels to Love

My computer has been on the blink for 5 days now!!! I’m falling so far behind! It’s in the shop, hopefully next week I will have it back.

Here’s a simple Thanksgiving card for you!

To make the two-toned leaves,

  • Ink up the solid leaf stamp from the Colorful Seasons stamp set with Crushed Curry ink.
  • Take a sponge dauber and literally ink up just the edges of that same stamp with Pumpkin Pie ink, and then stamp on to Very Vanilla scrap piece of cardstock.
  • Ink up the same solid leaf stamp again with Pumpkin Pie ink.
  • Take a sponge dauber and literally ink up just the edges of that same stamp with Cherry Cobbler ink, and stamp on to Very Vanilla scrap piece of cardstock.

ENJOY!

Foxy Friends Christmas Bag from Cozy Craft Retreat!

I’m still sharing projects we made at our Cozy Craft Retreat last month! SO MANY PROJECTS!!!!! Foxy Friends is one of my all time favorite stamp sets and punch to work with! These little critters are adorable and you can make them go with any season! Supplies used are listed at the end of the post.

I knew this would get your attention! We had a “sundae bar” at the retreat. It was a hit! PS. I get more use out of that planter box of mine! You’ll see it again in another photo from our Saturday night activity!

This retreat is about DOWN TIME as well!!!

Mermaid Birthday Party for Granddaughter

My first grandchild turned 3 last week! My daughter threw an amazing party with a mermaid theme. Here’s the card I gave sweet little Stella! Recipe below. The mermaid image was from the Silhouette store and I cut out with my machine.

 

Christmas Quilt Card and More Cozy Craft Retreat Photos!

Here’s another card from the Cozy Craft Retreat – an embroidered Christmas card! So fun and quite simple to make! The dies make it a breeze!
I made the little embroidery hoop clasp using my Silhouette machine. The embroidery hoop is on Dimensionals.

One of the table gifts at the retreat were personalized trash bins. I filled them with microwave caramel corn (this recipe is a STAPLE at my retreats!) You can find the recipe HERE.

Here are the name tags and door signs – the heart beat theme was sprinkled throughout the weekend. Stamping is my life-line!!!! I’m already gearing up for next year’s retreat!

Halloween Treat PLUS Cozy Craft Retreat Video!

Here’s a treat for Halloween! This was designed by fellow weSTAMPER, Jennie Portonova for our team meeting last month! Super simple to make, just stamp, cut out, and use an Xacto knife to make some slits! ENJOY!
