Christmas Jingle Scrapbook!

Jacque — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 02:17:10 +0000

Now that the holidays are over, you are probably getting ready to scrapbook all of your wonderful Christmas photos! Right!?!? Well, if you're like me, you could use a little help in that department! I've designed a little Christmas Jingle Simply Scrappin' album! The album holds twenty 8-1/2" x 8-1/2" pages and is ready to hold all of my Christmas memories!

I'm going to be holding a Christmas Jingle scrapbook class (Part 1) at my house on Wednesday, February 10th and February 24th (part 2). Class cost is $50 and includes everything you'll need to make the album including the Christmas Jingle Simply Scrappin' Kit, the On Board Album, a roll of the Real Red 1" Double-Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon, and full color instructions.

If you can't make it to my class, I've also posted my instructions on Craft Project Central for January!

Kids’ Holiday Craft Project!

Jacque — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 19:35:31 +0000

I think I mentioned before that I was going to go in to the school and do a holiday craft project with Craig and Jacie's classes. I did that this week. Here are a couple pictures of the kids making their crafts and then a couple of what they made.

I went to Craig's class first. The kids were so good! Everyone brought in a picture and we made a little Christmas card for them to give to their parents. They then all wrote a Christmas note and drew pictures inside!

Here are pictures of Craig and some of his classmates, and Craig and his teacher!

Everyone did a great job and it was so fun going in and sharing my love of crafting with them!

Here is my little Jacie working on her card. Even the younger kids did a great job and had fun!

Jacie and her teacher and with me. I bet you can guess what Jacie wants for Christmas!
All I want for Christmas is my _____ ________ __________!!

So cute!

And they all wanted to do a picture with "silly faces".

Pacific Stampers’ Group Holiday Potluck!

Jacque — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 21:03:40 +0000

Our group usually meets the first Friday of every month, but every December, in lieu of our meeting we have a holiday potluck! We eat, drink, be merry, play games, and stamp a little! Here are some pictures from our party! Enjoy!

Some of the gals made favors for everyone!

Brenda's favor!

Jane's favor!

Krista's favor!

Michelle U's favor! (And she didn't even get to come to the party!)

We also did a grab bag. Here are some of the grab bag gifts. I didn't get a chance to take a
picture of all of them, but they were all fabulous!!

Grab bag gift made by Krista. This little treasure trove is made from rectangular
coasters and was full of Stampin' Up! goodies!

This grab bag was made by Michelle P. The bag (upper right) had cards and this
little mini scrapbook in it! So darling!

This grab bag was made by Naoko! So beautiful and creative!

This grab bag was made by Stephanie! This is a magnetic board that you can hang by the
ribbon with calendar and magnets! Too cute!

And we played some games!

Drawing the Delightful Decorations stamp set on their heads!

And unwrapping a gift with many of layers of gift wrap, with oven mitts on their hands!

Music played for 15 seconds and when the music stopped the person had to pass the gift to the next person.
The person holding the gift when the last layer of wrapping paper came off, got to keep the gift.

We also had tons of food, and stamped a little tag, laughed and just had a wonderful time!
I have such a great group and I am very thankful for all that they bring to my life!

Front Row Regional!

Jacque — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 23:40:35 +0000

Every year Stampin' Up! visits select cities across the nation for training session called Regionals. I've been lucky enough to be able to attend at least one regional per year since I joined Stampin' Up! eight years ago, but living here in Hawaii, it can be a little costly to fly for a one day event on the mainland. This year Stampin' Up! introduced an event called Front Row Regional. They taped an event and put it on DVD and made it available to demonstrators so they could have their very own little regional from the comfort of their own home! In addition, they made available make-n-take packets so we could make all of the projects made at the actual regional.

I invited some other demonstrators to come over and enjoy the Front Row Regional with me!

We watched the DVD and it was just like having Shelli and the other presenters right in the room with us!

We stamped the projects, ate tons of food, and everyone brought projects to share.

Here are the projects that we made. The first is an 8 x 8 scrapbook page and the project on the right is a little holiday gift box. All projects used the Berry Christmas stamp set found in the Holiday Mini Catalog.

Next we made these cute little mini note cards. I usually don't stamp my envelopes, but the directions had that and I love how much it added to the projects.

And finally, two holiday cards. I don't know how I'm ever going to have naked envelopes again!

Supplies Used:

Berry Christmas Stamp Set #116509

I also hope that you've been enjoying the other ideas that I've been posting of easy things that you can make for the holidays and your holiday gift giving. I've posted several little gifts that are great for teachers, co-workers, neighbors, your friends, etc. and now with this little gift card holder, hopefully you're well on your way to making some fun and creative gifts!

And here is the inside. This little gift card holder was really easy to make and has only a little stamping (the snow flakes on the background).
