Downline Meeting

Last Saturday was our monthly downline meeting. Here's a picture of Julie demonstrating the project she brought for the group to do.We made these adorable post it note holders, but what Julie showed us was how to make these neat flowers using our oval punch. Three ovals are folded several times and pinched together and glued to make this adorable flower. It' always fun to learn something new - thanks sooooo much Julie for a great project.Here are Heidi and Sandy working on their project -

And some of the goodies Heidi brought for our snack. It was a fun meeting. Next month is our "Calling all CSL's" Quarterly meeting. Can't wait!! Stop by tomorrow for my demo using metal sheets.

January CSL's Downline Meeting

Yesterday was our monthly downline meeting for my first level Crazy Stamping Ladies - and we had such a great time. Yes - that is my Christmas tree in the background - all the Christmas stuff comes down - TOMORROW :) This month Sandy brought a project for the group to do using our Watercolor Crayons. Several in the group had not used them at all, so it was great for her to demo some different ways of using them, and share some tips.

Here Maria and Heidi watch Sandy demonstrate.

And here is the beautiful card we each got to make! Thanks Sandy for a fun and cute project for the group.

And I had to share this amazing basket of Home-made muffins Julie brought for our snack. She was even so kind as to make most of them low-fat for those of us in the group who are in Weight Watchers - the Raspberry/Almond ones in the middle were delish. Thanks Julie!

Special Gift Certificate

So recently this Gift Certificate was purchased for one of my customers. I wanted to make the presentation look special for her. Here's the decorated gift certificate.

And here it is in the folder I made from a discontinued DSP.

And Finally here it is closed up with a cute floral belly band - hope she likes it!!

Diaper Cake -

A couple of my co-workers at the college are doing a baby shower for one of the instructors this week, and were looking for a centerpiece idea. So I volunteered to make a Diaper Cake - and I think it turned out pretty nice. They aren't going to find out boy or girl till baby is born - so I went with neutral colors. It's 2 packages of disposably diapers, a bottle, a rattle, a pacifier, a teether, a bib, baby socks, SU DSP (discontinued) and ribbon. Hope they like it.
