Happy Turkey Day!

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone!

These little turkeys are mounted on round chocolates.  I am taking these to my family gathering today.  They are made from the scallop circle, 1" circle, word window, and star punches.

Peaceful Season

This was one of my favourite swap cards that I received at Regionals a couple of weeks ago.  It uses the Level 2 hostess set in the Holiday Mini called Peaceful Season.  If you would like to get this set, contact me to book your workshop now.

I would like to give a shout-out to my newest team member!  Because she signed up, I am now a Senior Consultant and I am able to give our team a name except I am struggling with a fun and creative name.  If you think you have a name for us, send me an email and if I use your suggestion, I will give you a gift!
Have a great Friday.

Cute Halloween Projects

Last night I had my first ever Kids Halloween Class.  The kids really liked making the projects and the class went well so I will be planning some more kids classes in the future!
We made 2 treat boxes, a card, and 4 little critters.

 These were the two treats boxes.  The pumpkin is made using the milk carton die and the witch is made using the fancy favour treat box as the base and then the top note die as the witch face.  All the face pieces are punched out using a variety of Stampin' Up! punches.

These four critters were made with Stampin' Up! punches and then mounted on round chocolates that I found at the dollar store.  These were very quick and easy to make and th googly eyes make them soo cute!

If there are other kids or adults interested in taking this class, I will offer it again before Halloween.  Send me and email to let me know.

World Teacher Day

I am on the Sunshine Committee at school and determined that today is World Teacher Day so last night I decided to make up these little treats for the staff at school from the Sunshine Fund.  I love being able to make little gifts and to have all the supplies to do it with short notice!

I used the milk carton die for the Big Shot to cut these out and then used the new decorative label punch to write our message on.  It only took me about an hour total to cut out, assemble, and fill these 21 little treat containers.

And if that wasn't enough...

Stampin' Up! has set a goal to recruit 10000 demonstrators in 2010 and I sure would love to help with this goal.  Stampin' Up! has announced some great incentives to get more demonstrators and I am happy to share them with you.  This is the best time to join because they are pulling out all the stops for new recruits and demonstrators who have people join their team.
Announced while I was at the Regional, Stampin' Up! will give you a free stamp set called "Eat Chocolate".  Now you won't find this in your current catalogue because this set will be from the Occasions Mini which comes out next year! (Shh...here are some samples from the boards at Regional of the new set)

Also, Stampin' Up! is still offering new demos the fabulous Greenhouse Gala craft tote.  It holds lots of supplies including 12x12 cardstock and is very stylish and practical.
I would LOVE to have you join my team.  I will help you get started in your new hobby or business by providing you with training and inspiration as well as motivation when you need it.  To discuss this opportunity more, contact me today!
