Guess what? I got to see the NEW SPRING CATALOG AND THE SALE A BRATION catalogs last night at the catalog premiere!!!! You are in for a TREAT with these catalogs, I PROMISE!
Here is the treat I made for my team members. The sentiment says: We “tissue” a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!” Inside is package of tissues. For this project, it doesn’t pay to give dimensions because there are so many different sizes of tissues, you just have to kind of measure the ones you have and make it fit. It’s super easy to make!
There were many of us who met for a quick bite to eat before it started. What a fun bonding time with my team! You could FEEL the excitement in the air! Then we met up with the others at the movie theater and enjoyed our time together at the event. MANY of my team won PRIZE PATROL and got new stamp sets from the new catalogs!
Today is the LAST DAY of the Holiday Extravaganza Sale! Order online HERE or email me if you would like me to order for you! Don’t miss out!
I think the biggest reason I LOVE Stampin’ Up so much is the friends I have met over the years. Last night was our team Christmas party! We did something totally different this year and played BUNCO for PRIZES! There were lots of laughs, fun, friends and BONDING moments, not to mention YUMMY FOOD and BEAUTIFUL PROJECTS during our gift exchange!
Here are some photos from our evening!
Here is FESTIVE Stefanie McKenitt and Sue Parker (my AWESOME WEB GAL!) posing for the camera.
One of our make and takes. Bells were made with the help of my Silhouette machine.
Artisan achiever Connie Collins came up with the candy cane idea, LOVE her ideas! I switched out the tag and used the current Ornamental Pines stamp set.
For the gift exchange I got little more help from my Silhouette machine and cut out images from White Christmas. You can see the bag in this photo.
Here’s a tag I made – I CASED Ilina Crouse. I found the ornaments at Hobby Lobby.
Here’s a little treat for those who attended our event!

Here’s a fun little gift card holder that I totally CASED from Diane Dimich! She is so clever to come up with an iPhone Gift Card holder! I know many teens who would LOVE to get an iPhone gift card for Christmas!
The Curvy Keepsake Box is so popular this year! Here’s a Santa box, perfect size for little treats or SMALL SPARKLY JEWELRY!
Here’s another project from the Holiday Extravaganza event!
The word “Christmas” is actually stamped on the windowsheet. It’s hard to see in the photo but the window sheet is taped to the front of the card and flips up to see the “Merry” sentiment on the inside of the card.

This is a popular card designed by my friend Dawn Olchefske! I love this card, and it’s an easy one to mass produce for Christmas cards! We made 2 of these cards at the Holiday Extravaganza!

As soon as I got My Paper Pumpkin this month, I KNEW what I wanted to do with it! Look at the FUN “pie” project for Thanksgiving!
Our family in a small group bible study. We get together every other week – we eat together and our kids attend with us. Kids hang out in another room, or outside, while we do our study. At the end of the study, all of the adults and kids gather in one room. Each week one of the kids gives a devotion to our whole group. The kids get comfortable sharing with their friends and adults! It’s very informal and low key.
Brady’s turn for the devotion is this week. He wanted a “Thanksgiving” theme, so his lesson is on giving thanks! As “luck” (I call them “Godincidences”, not coincidences) would have it, there are 8 kids in our group. There are 8 pieces of pie! At the end of Brady’s lesson, each kid will get a small piece of paper. They will fill in where it says “I am thankful for ________ (insert each kid’s name) because: ____________________. Each kid will write why they are thankful for that person. We will collect all the pieces of paper and put them into their piece of the pie for them to take home! Each child will have MANY messages to pour over! I will also tuck in some treats in the box, too. What a fun way to use this pie project! This could be done around the Thanksgiving table as well! (I should have bought 2 kits this month!!)
