I"m so sorry but I got behind in the 12 Days of Christmas series. Sickness has taken over our household, and that of two of my daughters, including my baby granddaughter. I think everyone is on the mend, but I am still questionable. I hope that I am able to sneak by...

It's Day 6 and we are halfway finished with the 12 Days of Christmas. And halfway should be a reason to celebrate, right? It's the season of giving, and today I'm feeling a little Santaish (is that a word???) I would like to give away a few gifts to celebrate the season. You can enter here or over on my Facebook page by clicking HERE Here's how you can enter:
Today's gift to give is an old favorite of mine. In fact, you may have seen me demonstrate it a time or two. I love it that much!!! You can quickly wrap lots of Hershey candy bars to give as gifts AND use up some of your designer paper that you have been holding onto for a special occasion. The good thing about this gift is that they travel well and there's no chance of smushing them during travel.
Another thing I forgot to mention in the video is that you could tape a gift card to the candy bar and then it becomes a gift card holder, too!!! How's that for multi tasking???
For this gift I used the #ELFIE stamp from Stampin' Up! (item #150509). This item can be ordered through my online store by clicking HERE. . If you would like to watch the video now, CLICK HERE FOR YOU TUBE or simply click the image below.
Thank you for watching. Don't forget to leave a comment below of your all time favorite gift you received as a kid for a chance to win a prize from me.
Please remember to subscribe to my newsletter for the latest updates, promotions and ideas.
It's Day 5 and the Gifts to Give just keep coming!!! Today's gift is another 2" x 2" box, but designed a different way than the acetate tiny treat box. This box holds a special Rice Krispie treat, which I purchased at Sams club, but you could most definitely put another treat or gift inside. My original design had the suspenders straight but in the video, I make them crossed in the back. You can choose which design you make.
I only used one stamp set for today's gift, but it is a BIG stamp set packed with so many versatile greetings. This stamp is still available through Stampin' Up! The stamp set is called Itty Bitty Christmas (item #150513) and can be ordered through my online store by clicking HERE
If you would like to watch the video now, with step by step instructions, please click HERE or simply click on the image below.
I hope that you enjoy the Santa Pants video and that you'll come back again tomorrow for another gift to give tutorial.
Happy Happy Day 4 of the 12 Days of Christmas. If you have missed any of the previous days, you can always find the videos over on my YouTube Channel, or scroll back through the days to find them here on the blog.
Day 4 is a yummy chocolate treat inside, with a cup of hot cocoa from Santa on the outside. I didn't have the Cup of Cheer set that is available through Stampin' Up!, so I created my own hot cocoa mug. This matchbook holder has a cute pocket inside that can hold a ghiradelli chocolate, a York Peppermint Pattie or maybe you can think of something different? Leave me a comment below or over on YouTube and let me know what you're putting inside your treat holder. I can't wait to make more of these!!!

Today's Gift to Give was created using a bath fizzy but you could put lots of things inside of this 2" x 2" acetate box.

Welcome to Day 2 of the 12 Days of Christmas. Today's Gift to Give is sure to please the chocolate lover on your list. This treat holder has room for three pieces of yummy chocolate. Who wouldn't
love that? PLUS this would make a great table favor or parting gift for your holiday guests. As you can see from the image below, there is a pocket on the front and the back of the treat holder. Snow much fun!!!
Today's project uses the snowman season stamp set from Stampin' Up! and coordinating punch. If you need to order this bundle for your Christmas projects, there is still time. You can visit my online store by clicking HERE.

Over the next 12 days, I will also be doing giveaways to show my appreciation. Stay tuned!!! Whoa. Merry Christmas to you and you and you!!!
Today's tutorial is all about the tea. My project is filled with delicious Christmas teas, but you could also put individually wrapped cookies or chocolates inside of this packaging too. I can't wait to give this gift to someone special.
Something that I didn't put on the one I created in the video is a poem that I found long ago. It's a great poem to send to someone when you can't be near them during the holidays. Feel free to add this to the inside of your tea holder.
On Christmas Day
At half past three,
Make Yourself
A cup of tea.
I'll think of you
You think of me,
Sitting round
The Christmas tree.
And here is the YouTube video with step by step instructions for you. Just click on the image below and enjoy!

Today's projects are all about the Turkey. Do you cook Thanksgiving dinner, or do you go somewhere to celebrate? This year, my second daughter, Haleigh, has a new house, and she has requested to cook dinner for the family. Woohoo!!! I"m excited for her to experience making a dinner for that many people, and I'm also excited that I get to celebrate with her and her husband in their new home.
Which leads me to today's projects. I wanted to bring something to make it a little extra special, especially since I won't be doing the majority of the cooking. So I decided, who wouldn't like to go home with a little treat for later, after the overstuffed feeling of eating too much dinner has worn off.
Each of these projects is fairly simple to create, and in today's video, I give you step by step instructions to follow. All of the dimensions are in the video. I have listed the supplies used below. Don't forget that if you follow the link to YouTube, to click the subscribe button so you never miss a post.

As of Monday, Fall has officially arrived. And whether you live in an area that has changing seasons, or you are somewhere warm and tropical, it's always fun to create beautiful projects showing the changing colors of fall. I created today's projects using the Gather Together bundle from the Stampin' Up! holiday catalog. These projects would be great for any upcoming fall celebration.
One thing I especially like about this set, Gather Together, is that there are greetings that can be used year round. Below is an image of the stamp set and coordinating dies.

Happy Wednesday friends. Today on Facebook Live, I have a really fun project. It's a card, inside of a mini pizza box. And you're going to love it. There's even enough room inside to put a chocolate treat if you choose. Oh, and did I mention that you could even send this through the mail? Could it get any better? Leave me a comment below and let me know if this is the kind of card you would make, and if you would send it in the mail.
Another great thing about this card is that it uses mostly all small scraps of paper, except for the card base and the white fronts. I don't know about you, but I really like being able to create something with my pretty designer paper scraps that might otherwise be thrown out.
Welcome!!!! I'm so happy you stopped by today. I have a great project for you, but first, I want to remind you to click on the follow button so you never miss a crafting post again. Also, if you are on Facebook, but sure to join our fun over there, by clicking HERE
Today I want to show you how to create a card AND a treat holder, all in one, that I created with the stamp set "Celebrate With Cake" (item #149501). And the great thing about this stamp set is that it has a stamp that says "lots of birthday wishes" but also one that says "Celebrate With Cake" so you can use it for so many things other than birthdays. Think about celebrating a graduation, birthday, promotion, great test score, or just for someone you think is extra special and you want to celebrate them.

One of my favorite things to do is create fancy folds and 3d items with my paper crafting items. This one has been on my mind for a long time. The key to creating a fancy fold is to make it not so fancy that others, including myself, cannot recreate it without pulling their hair out. This card meets that criteria. And I'm so very excited to share it with you today. If I had to give this card a name, I would call it the Free Standing Spinner Card. That's pretty creative, huh?
Do you have a better idea for the name of this fold? I would love to hear your ideas, and if one sparks my fancy, I would even be willing to change the name. Leave me a comment below.
I used the Leave a Little Sparkle stamp set for this card, but just think of all of the possibilities for what you could put in the center. Wouldn't Santa be so cute in the middle for a Christmas card?
I created a video with step by step instructions for you to follow along, but I wanted to give you a few close up images, because I know sometimes still shot visuals are great too.
This card folds flat and can be mailed in a regular sized envelope
The card stands so it can be displayed easily
The unicorn piece spins because it is attached to silver thread

Hello and Welcome to July!!! I hope your month is starting off well.
This week I had to delay Facebook Live because the internet was a bit wonky on Wednesday. So today I created 3 projects using a brand new stamp set called "Here's to Strong Women". Don't let the name fool you, this stamp set can be used to celebrate both men and women, and I'll show you how in the video. Here's an image of the stamp set I used today.
Stampin' Up! Item #149361

The Fourth of July is just around the corner. Do you celebrate Independence Day? If so, how do you celebrate? Our family usually has a cookout and we play washer toss outside and we may even have a water balloon fight. It's usually a fun filled family day.
Many years ago we were in California for the Fourth of July and our friends invited us to their home to celebrate. Their town did a great parade and kids decorated their bikes and people went all out to decorate their houses. It was a great time and I long to live in a small town like that. But for now, I will do my part to decorate my yard and celebrate with my family.
I wanted to make a few red, white and blue treats for our celebration. I was surprised that I didn't find more than M&M's, skittles, Twix bars and Little Debbie Snack cakes that were decorated in red, white and blue. So I bought all of them.
Have I told you before how much I love the color combination of red, white and blue. I don't know if it's just that it is a patriotic combination, or if those colors just call to me. Either way, I love creating with these colors.
I started off with clear cellophane bags. (the size that fits a pretzel) Mine are retired from Stampin' Up!, but you can find them at most hobby stores. I filled each bag with red, white and blue Skittles, then sealed the top. I used the Everyday Label Punch and Pacific Point cardstock to cut a piece to use for the tag. I used the Classic Label Punch for the greeting. I used the stars in the stamp set "You Always Deliver" and stamped real red stars randomly over the Pacific Point tag. I stamped the word "Celebrate" from the New Wonders Host set in Pacific Point, then stamped real red stars to the left and right of the greeting.
I folded the Pacific Point Everyday Label punched piece in half and used a mini stapler to staple to the top of the treat bag. I wanted to create a firecracker look, so I used silver metallic paper shred cut into small pieces. I used a small piece of tear & tape over the staple and attached about 10 pieces of the shred to create the firecracker. I cut a dimensional in half and added it to the back of the "Celebrate" greeting and then attached it over the top of the firecracker pieces.
This one only has 6 firecrackers. I ended up added more to get more BANG!!!
And now my treats are all ready to give away at my Independence Day Celebration. I can't wait to share them.
If you have created red, white and blue treats too, come on over to my Facebook page and share what you have created. We would love for you to share. Join me over on Facebook

Today I am sharing another card created with that set. And this card is a WINNER!!! WooHoo!!! Let me explain. Each month my upline for Stampin' Up! holds a team gathering and we create cards to swap with each other. There can be up to 15 people swapping, so we all get really great ideas to share. That's where the winner part comes in. Everyone at the meeting votes on their favorite card, and my card won this month. I was so excited!!!! And I even won a prize for my creation. I will share the other swap contenders at a later time.
Here's my creation:
What do you think? Do you love cows as much as I do? I just can't stop creating with them. You will definitely see them again in my creating.
Here's how I created this card:
Whisper white card base cut to 8 1/2" x 5 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
3" x 5 1/4" crumb cake embossed with the Pinewood Planks Embossing folder. Apply soft suded ink to the embossing folder before adding the paper and putting through the big shot
Cut embossed pieces to 1" x 5 1/4" and add to the front of the card as shown
Using the stitched Nested Labels dies, cut the largest die using Soft Suede cardstock, and the next to largest using Whisper White.
stamp the 2 cow images onto the white die cut and color with stampin blends markers (I used light crumb cake, light soft suede, light mango melody, black, light petal pink, light flirty flamingo and light smoky slate)
Attach the soft suede and whisper white pieces together (stagger them a bit), then attach to the front of the card using dimensionals
Punch 2 leaves using the leaf punch and granny apple green. Attach to the card front using Tombo multipurpose adhesive
Using the Magnolia Memory dies, cut 2 flowers using Mango Melody cardstock. Attach using Tombo Multipurpose Adhesive
Tie a bow using Pineapple Punch Grosgrain Ribbon and attach using a glue dot
