Cookie Cutter Christmas Eskimo
Don’t you just love the Cookie Cutter Christmas stamp set? Here’s a fun winter card using the little Eskimo!
More Grinch….
Because of the numbers of attendees, we decided to do a tag swap for our combined group. Here is my swap display. Inspired by my creative downline, Sue Parker, who started the whole cable sweater craze! The face is from the Jar of Haunts stamp set.
Tags on the swap board (cute board, Becca!)
I made a couple of gifts for some special friends, here they are! I got the crates with the bottles in them at Scottsdale Bible Church in their gift store. When I saw them, I KNEW I had to alter them!!! LOL Pretty Pines Thinlits were used to create this. I found green sand at Hobby Lobby.
Last but not least, a couple more Grinch items that I swapped at the OnStage event.
More Grinch Projects!
Sweet Becky Roberts made this Grinch themed gift for me, isn’t it adorable! Look at that packaging!!! I LOVE the towels, I will always remember our event when I use these!!! THANKS BECKY!!!! She also gave me the CUTEST little Grinch nugget holder, it’s so tiny! I love mini anything! LOL
This was our make and take for our event. Becky designed it – the unique thing about this card is you can pop the Grinch out and he can stand alone!
More Grinch coming tomorrow……
Grinch Food
Here are some of the food items that were served at our Grinch Party on Friday!
Grinch Party before the OnStage Event!
This was a BIG WEEK for my team and I! Twice a year Stampin’ Up puts on a BIG event for us demonstrators! We were blessed to have one of the events at the convention center in Phoenix this year!
To kick off the big event, Becky Roberts and I did a team get together on Friday. The theme was THE GRINCH! There are so many photos to share, so I will space them out so I don’t overwhelm you! LOL Tomorrow will be the FOOD!
My team of weSTAMPERS did an amazing job with their creativity and talent! We had so much fun brainstorming on what we could do to make this a fun event. THANK YOU TEAM weSTAMP!!!!!! I am forever grateful to you! I can’t wait to share photos with you!
As the guests walked in, we had the Grinch movie playing in the background.
Amazing weSTAMP Team – everyone had a part in this fun event!
Jackie wasn’t in the photo, but here she is! 🙂
Welcome to Whoville!
Welcome Banner
Becky and I
Name tags for everyone!
Each table was decorated like this
Gift for all the guests
I made the grinch jars by painting Kerr jars green. I used my Cameo Silhouette to create the face. (Face is on both sides of the jar). Stuffing inside the jars are from Hobby Lobby. Fabric is from Joann’s. SO FUN to make!
As soon as I saw the Jar of Haunts, I spied those eyes and immediately thought THE GRINCH! That’s where the inspiration for this whole theme came from!
GRINCH FOOD IS TOMORROW!
Christmas Bear Treat
Baby Bear is a stamp set that can be used all year long! I love it paired up with the sweater folder! And how about some gummy bears to go with this! Fun Christmas treat for any age!
My favorite color combo for the bear is (and in this order): Crumb Cake, Soft Suede, and Early Espresso

Gift Card Holder with Cookie Cutter Christmas
Here’s a gift card holder that we made at our Cozy Craft Retreat last month. I just love the Cookie Cutter Bundle! These little gingerbread are hanging out on a cookie sheet and you can see that one gingerbread got part of his head bitten off.
Reindeer Noses
Here’s a fun reindeer nose treat for Christmas! I just printed the tag from the computer.
The Cherry Cobbler piece is 8 1/2″ x 2″, and embossed using the Cable Knit Embossing Folder. The Designer Series Paper is 6″ x 1 3/4″.
Christmas Banner and Frame! Last of the Banner Classes This Year!
Next month will be my LAST BANNER class! It has been so much fun planning these classes!
It’s hard to see in this photo, but the “believe” letters are in Red Glimmer Paper. You can add your own photos to the mats.
I will have a local event in Cave Creek, AZ, on Nov. 21st where you can come and create the banner and if you need the frame, you can purchase that as well. Please refer to my class schedule HERE if you are interested in attending the local event.
IF you are out of town, and would like the kit and pdf instructions, please email me and let me know. Kit cost is $25 plus shipping. You will receive a full pack of Candy Cane Lane DSP AND a full pack of clothespins, plus everything you see here in the photo (excluding the frame). Even the felt ball garland is included! NOTE: NO IMAGES WILL BE STAMPED OR PUNCHED OUT. It is a good idea to purchase the Cookie Cutter Christmas bundle to go with this banner kit!!!!
I’m so sorry, but if you purchase the banner kit online (and not local), the chicken wire frame isn’t an option because the shipping is just too much!
RSVP Deadline is Nov. 7th
Reindeer Christmas or Thank You Card
Here’s a Christmas or Thank You card using the popular reindeer out of punch art! The front of the card is actually a gate that swings open.
The card is an 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ piece of card stock, scored in half on the long side. Then I cut from the top of the card front down 2 3/4″.
Here is a photo showing all the punches I used, and where to cut them. ENJOY!
Elf Gift Bag
As soon as I saw Becky’s elf hat HERE, I KNEW I would do something with that! I turned it into a clip for a gift bag that has elf legs on it. You can put gift cards and treats inside!
The elf hat has a clothespin inbetween, so you can clip that on anything! A bag, treat, bow or ribbon……
I did one thing different, I made my own pattern for the front hat. I used the base of the tree punch for the base and then just extended it to make it longer and slender.
Here’s the pattern for the elf hat and feet. ENJOY!
