Birthday Tags

Hi! It's me again! I know some of you got some of the Holiday Extravaganza Fever and got one of the Bundle Stamps. Today, I'm showing you how to use your StarBust Bundle.
My sister, Marge, wanted me to make some Birthday Boy Tags. (I made too much girl tags for her the last time..hee). Anyway, I hope you like them.



CARDSTOCK: Green Galore, Baja Breeze, Brilliant Blue, Chocolate Chip, Whisper White, Close to Cocoa and Yoyo Yellow
Tag Measurement: 2"x 4", scored at 2"
Add'l Notes: Ribbons used may be found in any craft store. Used 3-dimensional on the tags too. Pierced the 1-3/4" Circle around.
TIP: To pierce the circle evenly, pierce on equal sides (North, South, East, West), then pierce spaces between.

Please let me know if you have any questions. Visit my blog and my Stampin Up Website!

Monogram Cards

Good morning, Ladies! I've been making cards yesterday to give as gifts and I just got inspired by the monogram cards Angie made. So I made various sets of these simple but lovely cards. It only took me 5 minutes to make this bundle of cards. Great as Holiday Gifts or just because gifts.

You'll be needing these tools to make them:


CARDSTOCK: Kraft, Basic Black, Chocolate Chip Brown, Whisper White, Old Olive
ADDITIONAL NOTE: Cards measure 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" (folded). Ribbon used in bounding the cards may be found in any craft store.

Ornament Tag/ Treat

Hi, I'm back! Today, I'd like to teach you how to make this Unique Ornament Tag. I gave this to a friend and she couldn't wait to put it on her tree. I suggest to serve the treat on Christmas day! It's a good way to stash your sweet Chocolate Peppermint Patties. As soon as you eat your chocolates, you can keep the Ornament as a tag or a bookmarker! What a multi-purpose Xmas Treat and easy to make!!!
This is my second video and I had to shorten it as much as I can. Have fun making it!


CARDSTOCKS: Whisper White, Riding Hood Red, Chocolate Chip

Jingle all the Way - RUB ONS - Part 1

Hi! I know that's it's just thanksgiving but I can't help getting ahead to the Christmas Spirit. I made this frame as a gift to a friend of mine who hosted a stamp camp party. It just fits her whole ensemble on the corner of her lovely living room. She even put a stand on it. Here is closer look at the bottom where I filled the frame with small and medium bells. Frame size is 10" x 12".

Like Patty's frame I used the medium Park Avenue Balls and the medium "Jingle Bells" Rub-On. I also used the Riding Hood Red/Very Vanilla Ribbon.
DSP: Chocolate Chip DSP and the Bella Rose DSP
Other Note: I had to use a gold backing punched with the Large Scallop Die to emphasize the "Jingle Bells all the Way" title. I also used 10" x 20" frame and a vine of bells which may be purchase in a craft store.
Please let me know if you have any questions or order in my Stampin UP website.
RUB-ONS are now on sale for 20% off with purchases of $20 or more. So hurry and get yours before November 30th!

Thanksgiving Favors

Hi! It's me again! Here is part 2 of the Thanksgiving Table accessories. To give the guest a little something to take home, I made these cute favors. Yes, the pillow boxes. You may find them in any office supply store. They're called "Clear Binding Cover" for presentation books or meeting materials. They come in 25 sheets (very reasonably priced), they're safer too. One sheet will make 4 pillow boxes. The best thing about the plastic is that it's easy to handle and holds its folds. It's not flimsy. I just adhered it with sticky tape to hold it strong.
DSP: Hawaii Papaya (I had a lot of scraps and it still expresses the autumn colors)
You'll be needing these tools:

Other Notes: The ribbons used may be found in craft stores. Buy a whole bulk of chocolate covered raisins in Cosco, it's cheaper and chocolates are shinier. They won't stick onto the plastic. I'm not too happy about chocolates sticking. Check out napkin ring instructions.

Thanksgiving Dinner Accessories - Napkin Ring

We just had Thanksgiving dinner in our church and I had to come up with a quick and easy napkin ring. It was so simple it just got compliments on our table.

Cardstock: Kiwi Kiss

You may need the following tools to make this:

Other Notes: The ribbon I used may be found in a craft store. It's wine red. It really just brought out the kiwi kiss. If you can use real napkins, it'll be fabulous specially on white plates!
