Tags tags tags!!!

Hi all
This year I have been doing a fundraiser for the marching band - selling wooden momento roses at concerts and the school plays. This has taken a lot of sitting and when the show is in progress of course, there are not many customers. I hate wasting my time, so each time I have gone to sell the roses, I took along some stampin projects - mostly these tags, which we will offer to anyone who comes to the package wrapping table at Barnes and Noble in White Marsh in December. I know these are "old school" but they are soo popular and cute that I decided to whip up a bunch again this year. Hope they motivate folks to drop a donation in the jar!

Simple..simple...simple!!!

I know this is hard to see exactly what this is (I am a stamper, not a photographer!) but it is a shadow box full of bells with a decor element attached to the glass. so quick... so easy ...but fabulous!! Who should I give this too??

Fun Christmas decoration!

Hi all
I made this little treat while my ladies stamped last Sunday..I love it and it was soo easy. I die cut the three scallop squares from some white chipboard (have no idea where I got that!) on my Big Shot; layered the DSP (retired); Die cut the letters and attached to the DSP; punched holes in the four corners of each square; attached bells with jump rings; joined the squares with jump rings; tied a bow from SUP ribbon and attached to the top. Great little present for a coworker or friend. Nighty Night

Xmas Stamp a StackPart 4 Project 5

Hi Stampers!!
For the life of me I cannot figure out how to get these goofy pictures to show up as I planned, but at least this time they are in order - if not where I want them!! Grr!! Anybody want to give me some posting tips? I could definitely use them!!!

This is my religious card - I like to include at least one. The stamp set is Holy Triptych and so I tried to make a triptych. I used the scallop bag die to cut the white (4x6) card stock (scored at 2 and 4" and folded before cutting). The images are stamped in Stazon and highlighted in the new shimmer paint. The night of navy c/s is stamped with versamark and iridescent ice EP. The card has a folded white base that also opens. The pictures don't do it justice.
I am watching the Ravens and gotta admit, although I am not a big football fan, I am getting distracted, so I'd better close before I lose what I have input! Nighty Night

Xmas stamp a stack, Pt 4, Project 4

Hi Stampers
This is a bit unconventional, but I like it. The trees, word set, and star are popped up on dimentionals. Can you tell I love to use my Big Shot? The scalloped circle, the regular circle, the modern label layer. Yep! I use my Big Shot a lot!!

Want to remind you that now is a great time to book your Sell a bration workshop. The free rewards for customers, hostess and new recruits is a wow! this year ..you will want to get in on the goodies!! Remember too that we will have a new mini catalog to sweeten the pot for customers and hostesses!!

Xmas Stamp a Stack, Pt 4, Project 3

Hi Stampers!!
I know, I know, I need to work on my faces!! My angel looks a little scary!! She is just a serious singer!!!
Have you figured out that this little gal is made from three ornament punches? Too clever!! Not me!! I got the idea from Sandi MacIver. She made the cutest little angel ornaments, but I wanted my gals to have a chance to make one at my stamp a stack ...so voila' she is on a card. Sandy used a knife to cut the slit for her "hair" but I used the slot punch - quick! I outlined her with small piercings but some of the gals forgot to do that before they mounted the folded white card base ..uh oh! problem!! NOPE!!! I just had them dot around the angel dear with a white gel pen instead. The gals get a little worried when they"goof" but to me those little oops! are an opporutnity for creativity. Do you recognize the bashful blue strip at the bottom? It is NOT a border punch.. instead it is from the Perfect Setting die. Handy, huh? The wings were made from some retired vellum. She could easily be used in lots of holiday projects. Give it a try!!
