Day 8 - 12 Days of Christmas

 

You're going to be so excited about today's project.  It's a card AND a gift all wrapped into one.  And the gift is a yummy gingerbread man.  Who wouldn't like to get this gift?  This would be a great secret santa gift or a gift for a teacher who needs a little snack with their morning coffee.  How about tucking a coffee gift card inside, along with the gingerbread man. 

Leave me a comment below and let me know how you like this project.  I have been so super excited to share it with you.  Click on the arrow in the image below to watch the view. And you can watch as many times as you want to.  Enjoy.

Day 7 - 12 Days of Christmas


Hey!!!! Before we get started with Day 7, can I ask a favor of you?  See the box over there, to the right?  Be sure to type in your email address so that you can be inspired by my fun crafting projects and we can craft together daily.  Thanks so much!!!!  Oh ya, and be sure to tell your friends about me, too!

And now, welcome to Day 7 of the 12 Days of Christmas.  Each day during the 12 Days of Christmas I am sharing a treat holder or gift to give for the holidays.  Many of these items can be used as table favors, party favors, teacher gifts or secret santa gifts.   I hope that these project will help to make your Christmas holiday a little merrier.

Today's project was created using a full size Hershey candybar.  The candy bar fits perfectly into this 6x6 folded sleeve and can even be used to gift a gift card holder, along with a sweet treat.   This is a great way to use up some of your designer series paper that you have been holding onto for a special occasion. 

Click on the arrow in the image below to view the video now.  You will be redirected to my youtube channel.   Enjoy!



What do you think?  I think these candy bar wrappers are so adorable and I think they are so quick to make that I'm going to make one for everyone on my Christmas list this year.

Day 6 - 12 Days of Christmas


 It's another beautiful crafty day over here at Stamp It With Debbie.  I have been having so much fun creating projects to share with you.  I hope that you are able to create some of these projects, and that the ideas will help to make your holiday planning a little merrier. 

Today I created a project that does not involve candy treats.  This project is a gift to give that will help the receiver continue giving into 2019.  I love, love, love creating cards.  I like to design and plan and put the stamp to paper and color.  I love it all.  But what I love even more than that is to write a note inside of that beautiful hand made card, put it in an envelope, then address it and mail it off to someone special to let them know I am thinking of them.   It truly warms my heart, 

That being said, some people do not necessarily like to create cards, but they do like to send them.  Do you have someone special on your list that would like to receive a gift of your handmade cards this year?  These boxes go together pretty quickly, and you still have time to put a few together before Christmas arrives. 

Here is the link to the video.  I hope you enjoy.  Click the arrow in the image below to watch now:


If you need supplies to create this, or any other project, I would love to be your demonstrator.  Please visit my store by clicking here now

I hope you will stop back again tomorrow to see another fun Christmas project that you can create.

Happy Stamping,

Debbie

Day 4 - 12 Days of Christmas


It's Day 4 and I have another fun treat holder for you to create.  This treat holder is filled with a Ghiradelli Peppermint bark square.  Who wouldn't love to receive this treat?

If you have been around for a while, you know that I like to carry treats with me in my purse to give away to other shoppers, cashiers, airline staff, etc.  Today I am working to create 100 of these treats to give out.  The holidays are so stressful, and if I can make someone feel just a little better during a stressful time, I would love to do it.  I can't wait to start passing them out.

Today's video is a bit different in that I created not one of these treat holders, but 5, in about 15 minutes.  As I said in the video, I want you to know that the projects I share can be easy and can be made by everyone.  I hope that you will enjoy it. 

Click on the arrow in the video below to view now:



I hope that you are enjoying the projects each day.  Be sure to come back and leave me a comment below so that I know which ones are your favorites. 

If you need supplies to create this, or any other project, I would love to be your demonstrator.  Please visit my store by clicking HERE

Be sure to stop back again tomorrow to see Day 5 of the 12 Days of Christmas.

Happy Stamping,

To watch the step by step tutorial video, click on the arrow in the image below:

12 Days of Christmas - Day 2


It's Day 2 of the 12 Days of Christmas and I have a really fun project that you are going to love.  It's a hot chocolaty treat complete, with a stirring spoon and tasty chocolate treat, too.  This project is so fun and easy and you can get 2 cocoa holders from one sheet of cardstock.   Each day of the videos I have been creating 2 of each project, and I can't wait to give them out. 

Who do you give treats to at this time of year?  I have mentioned this many times before, but it's worth mentioning again.  I create small treats and carry them with me at all times.  When I am out and about and someone gives me great service or it looks like someone is having a bad day, I pull out a treat and offer it to them.  It absolutely amazes me every time the looks on their faces when someone does a kind deed like this.  You should try it.  It really warms your heart. 

Click on the arrow in the image below to watch the video.  Leave me a comment here, or over on You Tube to let me know how you like this project.  Also, don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel so you never miss a video. 

I hope that you enjoy today's project and that you will come back again tomorrow to see Day 3 and the fun project I have in store for you. 

If you need supplies for your crafting projects, I would love to be your demonstrator.  Please visit my store by clicking HERE.  Please remember that December 13th is the last day to place an order and still receive it by Christmas. 

Happy Stamping,

Debbie

12 Days of Christmas - Day 1


Can you believe there are only 17 Days until Christmas?  This year, I am way ahead of the game, and I need to be.  In November my husband and I celebrated our 30 year wedding anniversary.  We will be celebrating by staying a whole week at a Disney resort.  The only problem is that the week we are going is the whole week before Christmas.  We fly back home on December 23.  YIKES!!!! 

With that said, all but 4 gifts are purchased and all of the others are wrapped.  I only have 10 more Christmas cards to make, but the envelopes are all made out and ready to go.  The other 70 cards are signed, sealed and waiting for my postage stamps to arrive in the mail. 

My tree...well, that's another story.  It's up. No lights or decorations yet.  Three months ago we got a new kitten and she thinks I put the tree up for her to climb.  Every time she climbs it, I fluff it back up and think she's had her fill, but then up she goes again.  Here she is showing me just how cute she looks as a Christmas tree decoration.  What a stinker.


So today I started a new series called the 12 days of Christmas.  Over the next 12 days, I will be showing you lots of fun ways to share treats and other small gifts with your friends and family.   Click the arrow in the image below to watch today's you tube video,  and don't forget to stop back for 11 more projects. 


 
 
 
If you need supplies for any of your crafting projects, be sure to visit my store by clicking HERE.  You only have until December 13th to order and receive your products by Christmas. 

Thanks for stopping by today and I hope to see you again tomorrow.

Happy Stamping,

Debbie

Facebook Live featuring Dandelion Wishes


Today's Facebook Live demonstration features Dandelion Wishes and some get well cards.  Since we are in between Thanksgiving and Christmas, and I currently have several family members and friends who are feeling under the weather, I thought that I would create a few get well cards to have on hand for those times when I need them this winter.

I recently celebrated Stampin' Up!'s 30 year anniversary in Orlando, Florida.  One of the things that they trained on is the different types of stampers we are currently serving in our business.  Occasionally we all need to create a card quickly, because of lack of time, and sometimes we have more time, so we want to add more detail and layers.  And then there are some people who just don't feel comfortable with all of the layers, or they need a push to the next level.  With that being said, each week during live, I will try to demonstrate three card projects of three different levels.  One that is one layer, a second with a layer and maybe a few more framelit cuts or punches, and a third card with even more detail.  I hope that you will find this useful.

Here is the live video from Wednesday, November 28th.  Click the arrow in the image below to view the video on YouTube.


Once you have watched the video for step by step instructions, please refer to the measurements below to create your  own cards.

It's an Online BOGO Sale




It's that time of year again and if you don't want to suffer from FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) you better hurry and head over to my facebook group. It's my Online BOGO sale, and it will only last for 6 days. Sale starts Tuesday, October 16th and ends Sunday, October 21st.

Here are some quick links to save you from looking:

  • Click HERE to email me with any questions
  • Host code to qualify for FREE BOGO items:    ERJCBKJD

Here's the scoop on how BOGO works:

For every dollar you are going to purchase through my online store  you will choose the same amount from my RETIRED, GENTLY USED PRODUCT that I have listed on my facebook group.  Example:  If you purchase $100.00 in merchandise before shipping and tax, you can choose $100.00 in FREE items from my BOGO sale.  You pay only shipping to receive those items.  I will ship all items through flat rate shipping so that I have the option to track in case an item gets lost.  I will ship the items to you using smallest shipping packaging as possible in order to save on shipping costs. 

1.  Browse through the images of stamping products available over on my facebook group. (link listed above)   There will be four groups (labeled Group A, Group B, Group C and Group D)  If you would like a product that I have listed, type the word SOLD in the comments of that individual picture.  Please keep track of the items you would like to receive for FREE.  Please write down the stamp/ink/embossing folder/framelit name, cost and which group it is located in.    If SOLD already appears and you also want this product, you may leave a comment under the picture with the word NEXT in case the first order falls through.

2.  Send me an email listing the products you would like to receive for FREE with your online purchase.  You can email me here:  stampitwithdebbie@gmail.com

3.  I will send you a confirmation email and paypal invoice for shipping within 24 hours.  Time could be shorter but I want to give myself time to physically pull your products so that they don't accidentally get spoken for twice.   Since I am also human, mistakes do sometimes get made, and I'm trying to avoid this.  DO NOT place your online order until you receive my email confirmation.

4.  You will have 24 hours from the time the invoice is sent to you to place your order through my online store. You MUST use the HOST code ERJCBKJD at checkout in order to qualify for this sale. See link above to visit my store.   If you do not have access to paypal, please contact me directly at Stampitwithdebbie@gmail.com and we will work out paying shipping costs.  If you do not place your online order within this time frame, I will remove your items from the sold list.  No exceptions.

5.  Once I receive confirmation that both the shipping invoice and your online order have been paid, I will mail your FREE products.

A few things to remember:

  • Most stamps are in used condition.  I have NOT used staz on cleaner for any of the stamps.  Some stamps could have light staining from certain inks.  This will not affect how the image stamps. 
  • Please wait for my email confirmation before placing your order.  Once I get your original email with your wish list of FREE items, I will pull them, send a shipping invoice, and email you back to let you know I have successfully pulled your items. 
  • If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at Stampitwithdebbie@gmail.com
Please remember that this sale only lasts until Sunday.  Items will be given away on a first come first served basis.  If an item is already marked SOLD, you may leave a comment of NEXT in case the first deal falls through.

I can't wait to send you some FREE stamping supplies.

See you soon,

Debbie

It's Wednesday and that means it's time for Facebook Wednesday once again.  This week I am featuring a fun stamp set straight from Santa's Workshop.  There are so many fun elements to this bundle, I hardly know where to start. 

If you are reading this before 4:00 p.m. today, I hope you will consider coming over to my Facebook Page to watch me live at 4:00 p.m.  Click here to connect on Facebook now


The Santa's Workshop Suite in the new Stampin' Up! Holiday catalog is so much fun.  The Suite reminds me of something from the movie Rudolph.  Everything coordinates including punches, stamps, ribbons, designer papers, santa bags, enamel shapes and baker's twine.   The designer series paper has images that can be cut out using the framelits without even having to stamp and color.  If you love to color like I do, then you can stamp the images, color them with your favorite markers or Stampin' Blends markers and then cut them out with the framelits.  So. Much. Fun.

It's Finally Time to Go Home


As you are reading this, I am preparing to head back to my home state of Michigan.  Can you hear my happy dance from where you are?

My husband manages commercial construction.  The company he works for is based in Michigan but has offices in other places throughout the United States.  We are thankful that for most of the years our children were growing up, we were able to stay in Michigan. Except for that one REALLY LOOOOONG year in 1999 when he was assigned to a job in California, and I was at home in Michigan with 4 very young kids.   In May of 2015, we headed to Franklin, Tennessee for a 6 month job.  We absolutely fell in love with Franklin, and hope to own a second property there sometime in the future. 

Even before the job in Franklin, Tennessee was completed, my husband's boss was calling him about his next job.  It was in West Palm Beach, Florida.   This project was a big one for their company. It was a 19 story condo unit right on the ocean.   Who wouldn't want to work right next to the ocean every day?  And the experience and knowledge my husband would gain would be so beneficial to his career.  But we had our kids, our home and our pets to consider, because all of these things would be left behind for as long as the job took to complete. 

My husband and I both grew up in Lansing, Michigan.  In fact, our home now is only 15-20 minutes away from where we grew up.  We like Michigan.  We like the changing color of the fall leaves, the Great Lakes, the sand dunes, the snow.  Yes, even the snow.  But having lived there for 40+ years, we thought moving to Florida temporarily would be a good change, except for missing our family and our pets.

So, after much encouragement, and the promise of a boat from his boss,  (I opted to trade out the boat for a Lamborghini but still haven't seen it LOL), we packed up everything from the Franklin home and drove it down to West Palm Beach, Florida.  At first, it was fun missing the snow, but we soon missed home, our kids and pets immensely. It has been very hard being almost 1400 miles away.   Flying home for a quick visit with our kids and to fix anything that needed fixed around the house got old very quickly.  We were set to arrive back in Michigan sometime around the beginning of 2018. And here we are, the end of September of 2018, still here. 

But, it is finally time to go home, and we couldn't be more excited.  We always joked that our kids never left us with an empty nest, rather we left them in the nest and flew the coop.  Well, now it's time to go back and face the nearly empty nest.  When we left, only one of our daughters had moved out.  Our son will be moving to his own place when we return and our oldest daughter moved out while we were away.  That leaves our middle daughter and 4 cats.  It's going to be a big change.

My husband already has his new job assignment in Michigan, and thankfully it will not be too far from home. I will continue my adventures with Stampin' Up! and I will also be looking for a job to occupy my time, as my time as a stay at home mom is over.  Time goes by too quickly sometimes. 

I hope that you will continue to follow me and join me for local and online classes.  If you are local to me in Michigan, I look forward to seeing you again and catching up on everything that happened over the last 3 years.  I have missed you all more than you know.  My heart is very happy that we are returning home. 

If you are so inclined to do so, I ask that you pray for safe travels for us as we make our way home. 

I will post updates over on my Facebook group Create with Debbie, so if you would like to follow along as we make our way home, come on over.  And leave us a comment.  Click the link here then click join.  Create With Debbie.

If you made it all the way to the bottom, I thank you for reading about our journey, and the journey that is yet to come. 

Happy Stamping,

Debbie

8 Weeks of Halloween - Week 3

Do you remember Pop Rocks from when you were a kid?  I recently found a package of these at my local Dollar Tree and knew I needed to create a fun Halloween project using them.  I had a package left and had to try them out for old times sake.  Yup!  Just like I remembered them.

I have created a video for you to watch with step by step instructions.  I hope that you will try this project and come back and leave me a message.  Or visit my Facebook Group called Create with Debbie and share a picture with us.  You could really use any Halloween stamps for this set, but I really do love the Toil and Trouble Suite so much, that I knew I wanted to create something spooky with it.
