Merry Christmas

Here is a photo of the Christmas card that I made to give to my team, I wanted to do something a little different. It has taken me ages to make them all (still working on a few) by the time I did all the cutting etc but worth the effect. It looks like a penguin march when all the cards are lined up lol. I wanted to make a few more for some of the wider team but sadly have run out of time, that will teach me for leaving things to the last minute but like most people there are so many things that need doing and not enough hours in the day.
Anyway I want to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Crimped Envelope & Card

It is funny because when you tell your friends that you are going to make a crimped envelope pocket and card they usually think "is that it, boring!!" lol but when they see it they love it. I love Stampin' Up! envelopes because the quality of them is fantastic so you can use them for more than just placing a card in. Making this crimped envelope pouch is quick, easy but very effective and is ideal for putting a card in, money, vouchers etc. There are a few different things you can make using the envelopes so if you want to know more give me a call.

Our little Angel

I know this has nothing to do with Stampin' Up! but I just had to share this photo of our little girl Natasha in her first school production. They sang a song twinkle, twinkle little star but changed alot of the words in it. Both my husband Gary and I were so proud of our daughter she did so well singing away and doing all the actions. Natasha is in the middle with the pigtails. It was soooo cute watching them all up on stage.

Heart Treat Pouch

These little treat pouches are soooo cute and make a wonderful small gift for somebody special. They are very quick and easy to make but very effective. Natasha (my little girl) gave these and some of the other small gifts (prev posts) to her teachers at the end of the school term to say thanks, they loved them.
We also recently had an extravaganza in Hamilton and this is one of the projects that we got everybody to make. Thanks for sharing this fantastic idea with me Rayleen, it really is a fab little project.

I made these cute little decorations for hanging on the tree, I love the colours because they are nice and bright. I usually am an earth colours girl so this is a bit of a change for me lol. The reindeer one has chocolate raisens in it and the snowman has yoghurt raisens. I got the idea from Pauline and Michelle from Napier and I loved the little saying they had made up to put in the inside of the little treat pouch, they are both lovely and very talented ladies. Here is the saying that is inside.
I hear you've been naughty. So listen... here's the scoop! Instead of getting sweets this year. You get reindeer (or snowman) poop.
