Our First Stamp Camp!!!

First of all, I would like to thank everyone who came to our Stamp Camp last Sunday! It was a very eventful and fun workshop. With our 'Crazy for Cupcake' theme, we made 3 cute projects and had so much to offer. My mom made some appetizers and desserts for the guest as well as Raidis gave out her yummy treats. We will soon post our next one and give out our schedule. Here are also some samples introduced in our workshops. Feel free to email me for instructions. The project instsructions are now posted in my stampin up website http://www.creationsonpaper.stampinup.net/

Night Before Christmas

This is the first time I'm sharing my scrapbook pages in my blog. "It was a night before Christmas when 2 little bears wanted to see Santa's presents.........". That was how I began with these pages. Wasn't that funny?

The main thing here is that I used Stampin' Up! Designer Papers, "Holiday Treasures". I was so curious on how it would come out to be but I was not disappointed. Note that i used one of the "Deer Friends" stamp (from the guy with the red suit)..hee. I also used the 5 petal punch for the poinsettias.

The bears and some of the flowers are made of mulberry paper. Feel free to click the picture in my blog and see it closely. Have a nice day!

Christmas Bear Card

OMG! I could not resist but deck this card with my tear bear. All I did was just add the peek a boo bear and added the scallop edge and Whoala! Thanks for making the card Raidis! I can't wait to have one of your Halloween Cards too. Yes, we'll be coming out with our Halloween items soon! So watch for it! (Note: The card itself was made with Stampin' Up! materials, and bear is made of mulberry paper). Btw, thank you for helping me on this Christine.

Pillow Boxes and Chocolates

Hi, there! I finally got to use my Big Shot machine and I got to make my pillow boxes. In these pillow boxes, you may fit 2-3 hershey nuggets or even a bar of soap for give away. You can use this as packaging for your party tokens. Display it on dinner plates, on your bathroom, etc.

I also made some wrapped chocolate nuggets and made a box for it. It's a perfect hostest gift which you can tag with a personal initial. I used the following Stampin' Up materials:

STAMPS and INK: Lovely Letters Alphabet; Chocolate Chip Ink Pad

PAPER: "Georgia Peach" designer paper, "Chocolate chip" Cardstock, "Pink Pirouette" cardstock

RIBBON: "Chocolate chip";"Certainly Celery"; "Pretty in Pink" grossgrain ribbon

TOOLS: The Big Shot machine, Scallop Punch, 1-1/4" circle punch, 1-3/4 " circle punch

Nugget Purses

It's always a drag to think about giveaways and little tokens on your parties and get together. I'm featuring my "Nugget Purses- Cupcake Edition" in my Stamp Camp on Sunday. Just request to sign up on these classes from me and I'd gladly show you how to make them. Here are the Stampin Up! products I used: "Pink Piroeutte" Cardstock; Grossgrain ribbon ; Cupcake Roll Stamp; Dazzling Diamond Glitter; and of course, Hershey Nuggets!

A Christmas Card Preview

Hi! I thought I'd share a Christmas Card peak at what Raidis will be making for the Holidays. She used "Close to Cocoa" cardstock with "Holiday Treasures" SU designer paper. She also used the "Punches Three " SU Set from the Hostess Level 1 set. Let me know if you have questions.

A Cupcake Thank You!

Hi! We celebrated Christine's Birthday yesterday and it was a blast! I couldn't resist to share what her mom created for Thank you cards. She used the "Simple Birthday Thanks" SU Stamp for this lovely thank you notes to fill in. She used "Chocolate Chip", "Whisper White" and "Pretty in Pink" paper as well as good quality pink rhinestones to sprinkle-stud the cupcake. The cherry top (colored with SU watercolor pencil and blender pens) was glazed with crystal effects glue to give that fresh look too.

Purse Card #1

Whew! Monday was tough. I had to think and create projects for a friend who's planning a debut celebration for her daughter in 6 months. I came up with a purse where I combined 2 projects into one. It's a combo of a treat bag as well as a envelope card. I used SU paper: whisper white, basic black and green galore. The stamp was from a retired SU set (I don't have it on top of my head now, but just email me if you'd like to know). I also used grossgrain and satin ribbon for the purses handle. Ain't it cute! To top it all, I glued dazzling daimond glitters with the SU crystal effect glue. I will be featuring this Purse Card as my 1st project in my 1st Stamp Camp! Let me know if you'd like to come! Invitations will be out within the week. I'll keep you posted! Keep Smiling!

Apple Orchard

Happy Friday!!! How is your weekend going to be? Today, I'm sharing with you a first of it's kind 12x12 scrapbook page layout, where I used Stampin Up materials. I'm only going to show you a glimps of it. If you want to check it out, please email me shaintl@yahoo.com so I can post more pictures.

In this layout, I used the SU Summer Picnic set of design paper as well as the "More Mustard" textured paper for the tree trunk. The apples you see are die cuts from CriCut and the paper I used is "Real Red". I used Gross Grain ribbon and brads for the handles of the basket which I hand-weaved myself. I also used "Tempting Turquoise" for the bears dress. Well that's all the SU materials I used for this cute Apple Orchard layout! Have a nice weekend!

Pumpkin Bears

Hi, guys! Today, I'm sharing with you a bear set i've listed in ebay. Again, halloween is here soon and ideas of costumes are coming in quickly. If you have any idea of a halloween costume, you can email (shaintl@yahoo.com) or respond to this blog. If you'd like to see a particular costume in my bears, I can try making it and show them to you . Anyway, I used Stampin Up paper "Only Orange" on the pumpkin and glazed it with Stampin Glitter "Dazzling Diamonds". The leaves on top of the bears are made of "mullberry paper", which is also made with my bears. Anyway, I hope to hear from you soon.

Lollipop Bears

Happy Labor Day everybody! I know that everyone had a little something to celebrate the 3 day weekend. But of course, most of all, I bet you're all ready for the sending off your kids to school again. To all those who don't have kids in school yet, enjoy your babies while you still can hold them.

Here is a set of bear that I recently made for sale. It has been garnering popularity in ebay and I just wanted to share with you how cute this bears can be. I bought the lollipop from an ebayer and to my dismay, the seller sent it to me around 6 weeks after I paid for it. What a bummer. But the good thing about patience is, I got 2 packages of my lollipop in the mail.

The designed paper used on the skirts were paper scraps I had for over 10 years. I still keep a bunch of my scrap papers for future uses like this. The ribbons used were just given to me by my friend Mayda. She got a bulk of it, that could fill a small pillow case, for 25 cents. What a find! Thanks Mayda!
