New Stampin' Up! Products...and more!!!

Hi Stampers,
I thought today I'd share with you some of the new products that I got and also show you a couple of the projects I did today.
In this picture you'll see a pile of new things. From Stamp Sets to Punches, to Accessories, to Die-cuts to Designer paper. From that pile 4 of the stamp sets and 1 pkg of designer paper I got for FREE!!! How cool!!









This picture has one of our new Embosslits Dies and a Sizzlit die. The Embosslits die are awesome!! You put your cardstock in and run it through the Big Shot and out comes a dry embossed image all cut out for you. Way Cool!!!
Have you seen the Special that I'm running on the Big Shot? If your thinking of purchasing one...do it now. It's a great chance to earn some of those FREE stamps and more!


Here is a Bookmark I made using that Simple Flower Embosslets die and the Little Leaves Sizzlit die. There is also a Rhinestone Brad in the center.







Here you'll see some of our NEW Courdorory Buttons. They are soooo stinkin cute!!! I can't wait to use those on a project. Maybe tomorrow or later tonight.









I got ALL of the texture plates. I can't wait to start playing around with those and creating some cool backgrounds in texture.
Ok I'm off to play some more....maybe I'll have projects to show you later tonight!
Be sure and sign up for notifications when I update my blog!

Card Purse-onalities


I found the coolest tutorial online at Julie Buhler's blog for this Card Purse. So I created the Card Purse using the Valentines Bundle that was on Special.

I haven't created the cards yet to go inside BUT...
Who's to say you have to put cards in it. This would be a great gift bag for someone special. Put some smaller lotions, a nail clipper, some files, a buffer, or a mini manicure set and it becomes great little gift. Fill it with chocolates for a chocolate lover, hot chocolate for the sipper. So many possibilities with this little purse.

I haven't been in my stamp room since before Christmas and it felt good to get back to some stamping.
Hope you enjoyed this project!

Artisian Awards & Clubs

Below you'll find a couple of projects that won the Artisian Award from Stampin' Up!
The first one is small metal tins that were created into ornaments. Aren't they the cutest!!
The second one is candles that were stamped on and then added glittered letters. How stinkin' cute are those!! Can't you see those as a great gift idea and so simple and easy!!!


The accessories for the candles are:
Chunky Essentials Stampin' Glitter
Silver brads
Sticky Cuts Letters
Candles
Tissue Paper


The accessories for the ornaments are:
Chunky Essentials Stampin' Glitter
Baja Breeze 5/8" striped grosgrain ribbon
Kiwi Kiss 5/8" striped grosgrain ribbon
Riding Hood Red 3/8" taffeta ribbon
1/2" Circle punch
3/4" Circle punch
Metal container


I thought both of those projects were really cleaver and cute!! I can see a whole set of candles that say Merry Christmas. I think I would drill out the centers of the candles though so I could use tealights in them and not burn the candle itself. That way they can be used over and over.

This & That

It's been a while since I've posted. Life just gets a little crazy sometimes. I have to share with you a recent project I made for a Christmas gift exchange with some co-workers. We had to bring a gift between $5-$8. I'm thinking this is pain because you want it to be something nice but that's not much money to work with. So I seen online someone make framed artwork. I stopped at Meijer's and bought a frame that I got on sale for like $3. Went home and in about an hour had created this piece of artwork to go in the frame. I used my Big Shot die cuts to create the words and snowflake. The red snowflake is one of our Felt flurries. The rest is just cardstock and designer paper. I also bought a coffee mug filled with chocolates. The co-worker that received this LOVED IT. She said she thinks they need to have me do a class for them. Several of the others there were eeewwwing and aaahhhing over it. The almost didn't believe that I made it. Guess I've been keeping my creative talents a little to secret from my co-workers.

A big reason I haven't been posting to much is our home remodeling project. The whole week of Thanksgiving I had off work, but I was working at home. I painted my daughter's bedroom. My husband helped on parts of it. We ended up doing 2 coats fo primer on all the trim work. Hubby made all that himself....have I ever told you he's a woodworker? So everthing was bare wood. So we primed it all. Then we did 2 coats of paint on the ceiling. Didn't like how the first coat came out so we redid it.
Then we painted 2 coats of paint on the trim. We let that sit for a day or so while we took off and headed to Shipshewanna for a break for the day.
Then the day after that I went through and taped everything off and I started cutting in on the walls. Hubby then started rolling the walls. After 7 coats of paint here there and everywhere the room is finally painted!!!! UGH!!! Have I ever told you I HATE PAINTING.
The tape ended up coming off on parts of it. By then I was getting a weeee bit "irritated" and so I went and free hand cut in part of the room.
We still have a few things yet to finish up such as wiring the outlets, ceiling fan, doors and drawers for the wardrobe in the corner. We ordered a brushed silver aluminum shade for the window. We have brushed silver hardware for the wardrobe.
Hubby's got to build the wardrobe doors and drawers yet...we're hoping to have this finished and my daughter moved in by Christmas. With both girls in one room together....a 14yo and 16yo its been a bit testy at times in our house. I'l be glad to get them seperated into their own spaces again!
