UStamp with Dawn and Friends - Let's Score:: Just My Type

Hi Everyone
I've been having lot's of fun checking out all the designer projects for the UStamp with Dawn and Friends - Let's Score session.
I was asked to make three projects for this session and I can't wait to show them to you over the next few days.
But before I go to far let's check out one of them.
This is what I called Just My Type.  I loved the new typewriter stamp set in the Occasions Mini 2012 from Stampin Up and I knew I wanted to try and recreate a typewriter post it note holder.
It looks so cute on a desk.  Can you imagine making these for the kids at school and seeing all these little different color typewriters on their desks.  So cute!
Thanks so much for stopping by.
Have a fabulous day!

Nugget Treats

Hi Everyone
I've seen this idea many time and just got around to making some. They truly are very quick and such a nice treat to give someone special I think.

The little nuggets are wrapped in Stampin' Up DSP and then embellished on the front for the Holiday season or any season or reason.
Give them a try.  I think you're recipients will love them.

Have a fabulous day.

Christmas Treat

Hi Everyone
I've always loved the test tube treats that have been popular these last few years.  This year I decided to put together some quick and simple Christmas themed test tube treats.  For Christmas I included red hots.  I thought these would go great with a fun Christmas mug and a bag of hot cocoa.
The most time spend on the project was just waiting for the package of test tubes to arrive. :-)

Thanks for stopping by.  Have a wonderful day.

Thanksgiving Favors

Hi Everyone
Just a few little treats created for the Thanksgiving table.
The cute little turkeys were cased from Kimberly Morris.  Everyone loved these cute little guys.  So easy to make too.

The turkeys with the treat cup bellies is also cased.  This idea came from Heather.  Check out her fun video!

Have a wonderful day.

All Occasion Tags with UStamp with Dawn and Friends






Hi Everyone
I was fortunate enough to be asked to create not one not two but three projects for the UStamp with Dawn and Friends - Knockout Punches sessions.
This is the first project that's been shared.
I called this project All Occasion Tags.  I love tags and especially a hand made tag.  I went a little crazy with all the tags but I loved the thought of adding the Silver glimmer paper to the tags to add a little punch.
I thought this would be great to give a friend and then she'd have some special tags to place all gifts through the year.
Thanks for dropping by.  Have a fabulous day.

Here are some close up shots of some of the tags.

Christmas Tart


Hi Everyone
I've been working on some Christmas gifts for friends.  Last year I scored some Yankee candle tarts on clearance so I stocked up.
I've just dropped three tarts in this 3"x3"x3" box and created some distressed tags to go with it and topped it off with Stampin' Ups stripped ribbon.  I also created the paper in the bottom of the box by just cutting pattern paper at every 1/8" to 1/4".  They were not very expensive to make and I think will make great gifts for those you want to give a little something to.

Have a wonderful weekend.
