Nicole's Calendar

I wanted to get this on here right away. I am so very pleased with how it turned out. I hope my daughter will feel the same way. She was just recently married and I thought making this will help her remember when everyone's birthdays and anniversaries are.

I found this on another ladies blog and knew right away this was what I wanted to make for Nicole.

I used the following items to make this book:

Stampin' Up! products unless noted

Paper: DSP Berry Bliss, Whisper White, Purely Pomegranate, Pretty in Pink
Tools: Scallop punch, Boho Blossoms punch, Circle punch 1 3/8", Circle Rhinestone brads (Fire),

White gel pen, 1/16 hole punch, Bind-it-All machine

Misc.: Computer to print the cover words, and for the monthly calendars on the inside pages.

Double Pocket Card

I really liked the Double Pocket Card I seen people were making on Sudsol. I decided I would try and make one myself. I think I would change how I put the little insert cards next time around, but it was a fun project to make. Next one I make I want to have the double pockets on the front of the card, instead of being inside.

Materials used are Stampin' Up!

Stamp Set: Priceless

Paper: DSP Le Jardin, So Saffron, Bashful Blue, Very Vanilla

Tools: Ticket Punch, Paper Cutter

Accessories: Very Vanilla Ribbon, Antique Brass Brad

Stamp Pad: Bashful Blue

Pocket Pouches

I was able to teach some women at a Mother/Daughter Banquet a project that is very easy to do. The women all seemed to love it. A lot of them were going to make them at home and use them for different purposes. I taught this because it is something anyone can make and give.

Materials are all Stampin' Up!

Stamp Set: Priceless
Paper: DSP Rose Red 8 1/2 " x 8 1/2", Very Vanilla
Stamp Pad: Rose Red
Punch: Scallop Punch
Accessories: 3D foam dot, Small Cellophane Bag
Candy: Mints, and Chocolates (you could use about anything that would fit into this pouch, gift cards, small toys, etc.)

First Recipe Box

I finally got my recipe box made. I love how it turned out. My daughter even really likes it, which that is a real compliment.

This is what I used to make this project, of which, I used all Stampin' Up materials.

Paper: Rose Red, DSP Berry Bliss, Whisper White.

Stamp Pad: Close to Cocoa

Chalks: Chocolate Chip, Close to Cocoa, Going Gray, and Black

Tools: Scallop Punch, Boho Blossoms Punch

Stamp Sets: Voila', One of a Kind

Ribbon: Chocolate Chip, Purely pomegranate, and white

Thank You Jar

I finally made one of these. I have been wanting to make something with the rub-ons, but have been procrastinating. I used the SU! prints paper pack and whisper white. The SU! scallop punch and 1 3/8" circle punch. Rubberstamp from the SU! Lovely Labels set. Rub-Ons (Love and Happiness) from the SU! sale-a-bration mini catalog. I also put inside some kissables. The ribbon is 1/4" grosgrain pretty in pink. The glass jar I bought came in a set of 9. They are for making little favors.

I believe I bought these jars at Pat Catans in the wedding supplies. JoAnns and Michaels may have them also.

Empty Tomb

I wanted to use this stamp for Easter because it is why we celebrate Easter. I used generic paper, SU! Classic Basic Black Ink Pad, Chalks, and blender pens. I wasn't happy with the turnout until I went over the whole stamped image with a rainbow gelly roll pen. It helped bring out all of the colors and really enhanced it.

1st Workshop Card

This is my very first workshop card we made. I used SU! In Colors: Blue Bayou, River Rock, Wild Wasabi, and Whisper White. Designer paper: Porcelain Prints. Tools used: word window and slit punch. For the white dots I used the uni-ball Signo Gel Pen. Stamp from Fast and Fun Notes, Classic Basic Black Ink Pad, and generic ribbon. For the coloring we used the blender pens and dipped them into the chalks. Over all it was very fun. I have learned a few things I need to check and do the next time I have a workshop. Hopefully each one will only get better.
