Teacher Gifts

It’s December and even though it doesn’t feel like December here, I’ve been working on Christmas Teacher Gifts. It is suppose to be 80 degrees here today! Too hot but these cute little ornaments makes me think of snow.

My high schooler has finals this week before winter break so I worked hard this weekend to get teacher gifts ready for her to handout today.  They turned out super cute!

I found the idea on pinterest and CASED it (copy and share everything).  I used the Year of Cheer Designer Series Paper and the Hearts Come Home Bundle from the Holiday catalog.  I hope her teachers like them.  🙂

Here is a list of supplies I used:

Hearts Come Home Gift Tags

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving with lots of family time.  I enjoyed being with family and some down time.  Now I’m ready for Christmas decorating and gift giving.  I came across an idea for gift tags on Pinterest using the Hearts Come Home stamp set.  I used that idea to design some of my own.  And I’m offering them as a Class-to-Go kit!

Each class kit will arrive at your front door sorted and organized by project. I will do all the scoring, punch and cutting for you.  You will need to provide the ink and adhesive.  You can purchase the Ink here.  I used Real Red, Basic Black and Smokey Slate.

Holiday Class-to-Go

Today, I’m sharing three wonderful gifts for the Holidays.  Two can hold treats.   I love simple gifts that can hold a treat or candle to give at the holidays.  

The first treat holder is a Christmas Lantern.  I found this idea on Pinterest and love it!  This super cute treat holder measures approximately 6″x2″.  You can put wrapped candy in it or a food-safe bag with some candy in it.  I think a small battery-operated candle would look super cute in this!  I love the green sprigs, they really add so much to this cute lantern.  The PDF tutorial that comes with the kit will have all the assembly directions with colored pictures and all the paper pre-cut and pre-scored plus the embellishments.

This super cute jar was featured in Stampin’ Success (a magazine for Stampin’ Up demonstrators) and I figured out how to do it with a fun technique using shipping tape to transfer the image to the jar.  You will get all the details in the tutorial.  You will have to provide the jar but I will provide all the embellishments in the kit.  This would make a cute treat holder or you could put a candle in this one.

Silver and Gold is the theme of this beautiful handmade Christmas Tree Ornament and the box to give it in.  You will create this gift project using the Hearts Come Home Bundle.  The ornament measures about 4″.

I recommend you use Tear and Tape or Tombow liquid glue to assemble all of your 3D projects so that they will stay well put together by the time your recipient receives them. You will also need Glue Dots and Stampin’ Dimensionals.    You will need Basic Black ink and Night of Navy Ink to complete these projects.
Each class kit will arrive at your front door sorted and organized by project. I will do all the scoring, punch and cutting for you (other than what needs to be done with your new Framelits.)
This Kit has four options:
Option #1 $70
This is the full Class To Go Kit. It includes the clear mount Carols of Christmas Stamp set. (a $20.00 value!), the clear mount Hearts come Home Bundle (a $47.50 value!), 1 yard of the Striped Ribbon, 1 yard of the Cherry Cobbler Double Stitched Ribbon and all three Make and Take materials. You will also receive the full step by step PDF tutorial. Email me for the registration link. 
Option #2- $25
This is the Class to Go Kit for those of you who already own the Carols of Christmas Stamp set and the Hearts come Home Bundle. You will need the stamps and Framelits to create these projects, so only choose this option if you already own them. Your class to go kit will include 1 yard of the Striped Ribbon, 1 yard of the Cherry Cobbler Double Stitched Ribbon and all three Make and Take materials. You will receive Sitched Felt Embellishments for free!. You will also receive the full step by step PDF tutorial. Email me for the registration link

I love how easily they blend and especially if you like to color, these are perfect!

These beautiful markers come in two shades of each color to blend beautifully!

Easter Lily Card

Easter is almost here, so I’ll be mailing out my Easter Cards today! Why cards on Easter? I think anytime you can send a card with a sweet note inside to brighten someone’s day, it’s a good reason. 🙂
I love this card.  The idea came from pinterest and I added my own twist to it.  The stamp set is Easter Message and is retiring as of May 31,  so if you want it now for next year, order it today!

Card ingredients:

Base:  Pear Pizzaz card stock, 8.5″x5.5″, scored at 4.25″  Card mat:  Very Vanilla card stock, 5.25″ x 4″  Silver Foil paper cut to 1″ x 4″Oval Stitched framlit,  Palm branches stamped in Wild Wasabi Ink, Lily and sentiment stamped in Basic Black Ink.  I used markers to color in:  Pear Pizzaz on leaves and just a bit of Daffodil Delight on the middle of the flowers.

 

 

 

 

My next class is:  April 29th!

Balloon Adventures Class To Go

The Balloon Adventures stamp set and thinlets come as a bundle in the Occasions Catalog and it is a great set with many possibilities for birthdays!

Paper Pumpkin & Organization Class

Paper Pumpkin!  When I first heard it I thought I was going to be cutting out pumpkins all day!  But NO, Paper Pumpkin is a papercrafting kit that is mailed to you each month with everything you need to make fun, creative projects.  And it’s not always cards!  The one from last month had a fun little spring wreath to make!  This is a great way to get into papercrafting without buying alot!  This is how I first got started into making cards and into Stampin’ UP!

I would like to show you what Paper Pumpkin is all about at my next class!

PP_Intended-Use_Rewards_Demo  We are going to make two projects from the Pocket Full of Cheer Kit!  You will get to see what all is in the Paper Pumpkin Kit and how fun it is to make the projects!

But I’m also adding another part to this class:  Organization!  Ever wonder what the basic tools of papercrafting are and how to use them and more importantly how to store them!  I will show you and you will receive your own little papercrafting kit of the essentials.

organizationkit

Best part is that it will be very handy to pick up and take with you to card classes, scrapbooking, or just at home and know you’ve got what you need in one place!

The class is Friday, May 20th 7pm!  Class fee is $20.  So register today!  Deadline is May 12th!

Change is in the air!

October is here and change is in the air.  I’ve totally updated my website and changed the name!  Love Life Stamping is the new name and reflects how I feel about life and stamping.

I’m excited to announce that starting this month, I will offer card kits with great designs and stamp sets all packaged and mailed to you!  Here are the details:
