Candle Tin for gift

I love these tins!!! I've used them to make nugget tins and saw the idea somewhere on the net (sorry that I can't remember where) to put tealight candles in them. I found some wonderfully scented ones at Wal-Mart. They were cheap! 30 for 3.50 I used designer series paper from Stampin' UP called Ski Slope and the Felt Flurries from SU. The rhinestone brad is one that I got in a trade a long time ago. I used the Punch Pals scallop circle stamp; stamped it in white craft ink and embossed it with white embossing powder. I used the SU silver elastic cord to tie it to the belly band. I LOVE SU elastic cord and it's only sold during the Christmas season, SO BUY SOME NOW.

p.s. I have some extra tins for my local customers. If you'd like to buy them, they're $2.

Christmas Treasures Workshop

This Thursday is the Christmas Treasures Workshop!! I'm so excited to share with you all these different projects! And hopefully, this will help take away some of the business during the season for you!

The projects are broken down into two groups. Chose to do one group for $10, or go for it all and do both groups for $15.

The picture order got switched. The first picture shown is group 2, which includes a decorated tin (filled with whatever you want--I will supply Hershey kisses for this if you don't have something), a money holder, a lip balm holder (you provide the lip balm), a post it note holder (chose from the owl or the Green Tea oriental one), and a peppermint candy treat bag.

Group 1 is the last picture and it includes an altered calendar with matching pen, a nugget tin, a gift card holder, and a treat purse that contains a kit kat bar.

You'll have so much fun!! And not only will you go home with these fabulous treats, but you go home with instructions so you can complete more at home!!!

It's this Thursday November 13th. My house will be open from 6pm until late. Come and go as you want. Sign up today!!!

Merry and Bright Snowman card :)

This card uses 5 of my most favorite stampin up things :)

#1 The scalloped square made with the Scallop Edge punch on a 2.75" square piece of paper. I just love these!!!! You just center the paper in the edge punch (using the markings on the black guide) and punch each side.

#2- The snowman from the Merry and Bright set. He is just sooo cute! And he's so versatile! I've made all types of gift bags with him :) snowman soup (hot cocoa), snowman poop (marshmellows), snowman kisses (tic tacs), etc...

#3 --Dazzling diamonds!! I love filling in the white parts of the snowman with the 2 way glue pen and then covering him with Dazzling Diamonds. A girl's gotta love her BLING!!

#4- ribbon!!
#5- SU Designer Series Paper--gotta love these last two because they just pull the project together and give it the perfectly coordinated look :)
