Christmas 2009

Published by Sue under Holidays

It was wonderful to host Christmas dinner at our new house.

We had plenty of snow to make it feel very Christmasy.

This is my hubby and I in front of our Christmas tree.

This is our daughter, son-in-law and the two grand girls.  Oh, and Lillyanna, the new doll.

This is our son and daughter-in-law, who will be having our third grand child any day.

My brother and nephew joined us at Christmas this year.  My son looks so much like my brother!  We had such a wonderful time celebrating together!

Downline Christmas Cards

Published by Sue under Holidays, Stamping

Here are the handmade Christmas cards I received from some of my downline:

From Autumn–I love how she rubbed chalk on the image to soften it and highlight it.

Cyndi’s Card:  I love how she used all the different punches to highlight the words.

Liz’s card–I love the simple elegance of this card.  The four corners really draw your eyes to the dove.

Sue A’s card:  I love the shimmer of the specialty paper, which adds such elegance to this card.

Peggy’s Card:  I love the color choices with the ribbon and eyelets highlighting the card.

Christmas Tags & Thank You’s

Published by Sue under Holidays, Stamping

On December 14, I provided the supplies for these thank you cards and gift tags for my friend, Bobbi’s, downline meeting.

The thank you cards are great to give to hostesses (include a couple business cards) or for personal use (add a gift card, check or money).

 It was a very fun evening for everyone!

A customer asked me to make this Christmas frame in Bravo Burgundy and Handsome Hunter colors.  I like how it turned out.

October Scrapbook Club

Published by Sue under Holidays, Scrapbooking

The first theme for October’s scrapbook club was birthday pages made in primary colors.  The Big Shot "Alphabet Simple Letters" has become my favorite alphabet die cut.

The Big Shot "Big Bold Cupcake" sizzlits die cuts were very fun to use.  Crimped the bottom of the cupcake and added brads to the top.

I’ve been wanting to try the Big Shot "Lattice" die for a while.  Glue dots work the best to make them stick to cardstock.

The second theme was Christmas featuring Merry Moments designer series paper, Old Olive, Real Red and Very Vanilla cardstock.

Embossed words in Iridescent Ice embossing powder and punched with the ornament punch.  Added silver cording on the back held with a brad.

This page features the styled vanilla hodgepodge hardware kit with retired real red striped grosgrain ribbon.

 Again, the embossing was done with Iridescent Ice embossing powder.
