Here are the cards that were made during my “Stamp A Stack” class this week. We made 12 cards total, 4 cards each of the 3 designs.
The first card I couldn’t decide which one I liked better, so the gals could make either one. The first one has BLING on it. On the 2nd, the ornament is 3-D. You get the 3-D look by punching 3 ornaments, folding them in half, and taping them altogether.

This was our Christmas card this year. It is hard to see the Cuttlebug dry embossing on this card, but the burgundy paper has the “ornaments background” dry embossed on it.
Merry Christmas to everyone! ENJOY the time with your family celebrating Christ’s birth!

This is the project that has been hanging over my head the past couple of weeks. I finally finished it today! It has been so much fun to make! This is what I am giving to my sister for Christmas. She is SO HARD to buy for!
This is my “Starbucks” themed Christmas tree. The tree stands about 2 feet tall, and is decorating with Starbucks themed ornaments and garland. Starbucks comes out with a few new ornaments every year. If she doesn’t collect them already, i will have to start the collection for her. They would be cute filled on this tree.
I wanted to simulate a “hugger” like you get at Starbucks for the base, so this is what I came up with. My sweet DH made a pattern for me to go around the bucket. The tag was actually my daugher, Brittany’s idea. It is supposed to look like the side of a Starbucks cup where they check the box according to what you order. I also added coffee beans to fill up the bucket, which you can see below. This Starbucks tree LITERALLY SMELLS like coffee! 🙂
The tree was kind of bare and I couldn’t afford to fill it with Starbucks gift cards and Starbucks ornaments, so I did a couple of them on my own. This is a tiny plastic MINI cup that Starbucks uses to give samples in. The gals laughed at me when I saved it, but I KNEW someday it would come in handy! Voila! I added brown and white krinkle paper shreds to imitate coffee and foam.
This simple ornament is simply brown felt attached to twine. Then I just added the logo to the heart! SIMPLE!
The MOST TIME CONSUMING part of this project was making the coffee bean garland, which you can see in this picture. I tried every different glue in our house to find the one that stuck the best. I glued real coffee beans onto fishing line.
I sure hope my sister likes this! She is such a Starbucks Freak, and I always am giving her Starbucks cards, so I hope this twist to it is fun for her. (I also hope she doesn’t read my blog….LOL I need to write to Starbucks and tell them to come out with some sort of coffee bean garland!
Jumping on the candy cane bandwagon!! Brady and I went to my friend’s house and we made these for our kid’s school friends. They were SO FUN! Here are some pictures of what I had left. (Ok, so the kids didn’t help too much, they were doing their own crafting. See post below for Brady’s project.)
I know there have been a lot on SCS with this idea, but my favorite was Nancy Riley’s at iSTAMP. Hers can be found HERE.

Brady made this necklace for me. When he was done, he asked me, “Do you think your ‘ladies’ from your classes would like to make one?”
What do you think ladies? Ohhhhhh he keeps melting my heart! Love that kid….
This is what I gave my friend, Nancy Riley (iSTAMP) , for our little Christmas get-together. I found the picture at Joann’s Etc. and then altered it. It is made out of metal and the paint is distressed.

My friend showed me a Christmas card she received last year. Immediately I thought of using this same concept with Designer Paper! This is a great way to use up scraps of paper!!
