Saying goodbye...

Today is the last day to order from the Holiday Mini Catalog before the Occasions Mini goes live tomorrow!

Here's a few of my favorite products and projects from the holiday mini... and at the end of this post is a link to the products that will be carrying over!

I really had a blast making this wreath at a class my downline, Michelle Walker, held.  It was a lot of work, but well worth it in the end!  This is a wreath I will be proudly displaying for many Christmases to come!

At the class, we could choose which products we wanted to use, and I chose the Holly Berry Bouquet product suite from the Holiday Mini catalog.

The wreath featured a whole lot of fan fold flowers using the brand new Simply Scored tool as well as some Yoyo's made from the Designer Fabric!  

Here is a gorgeous wreath my upline, Alecia Connelly, made using the Spice Cake product suite:

And here's the one that started it all - made by the class instructor (and my downline AND BFF), Michelle Walker! :o)

Speaking of the Spice Cake product suite (which happened to be my favorite from the catalog) - I used it to make a Thanksgiving scrapbook page:

...and a lovely birthday card!:

Lastly, I made a witches hat with a hodge podge of products!

I featured a distressed banner using the Hand-Penned holidays stamp set from the Holiday mini:

For the loads of seam binding ribbon, I jut hand-dyed our very vanilla ribbon using the Cajun Craze and Concord Crush reinkers!  I think they turned out great! :o)

June Club Project

This was our last club before I took my "baby hiatus", so I decided to go all out!!!  I gave my hostess club members a choice of three different stationary box sets to make:

Choice #1 used the Woodland Walk DSP & Coordinating Colors:

Choice #2 used the Love Letter DSP & Coordinating Colors:

Choice #3 used the Elegant Soiree & Coordinating Colors:

When folded up, the boxes looked like so:

And each box contained 4 different card designs and 4 mini notecards:

Here is a link to the tutorial I put together for the workshop!  

It is very easy to adapt to any other DSP collection!

Everyone did such a wonderful job on their projects... I am going to miss all my lovely stampin' gals while I take my little break!  I'll see all you beauties when we start back up again next year!!! :o)

May Club Project - Father's Day

For my May hostess club, we focused on Father's Day and National Scrapbooking month to make these great accordion-style mini albums!

Here is a great tutorial on how to make the basic album.  What I love about this album, it you can expand it to be as large as you want it to be by simply adding more folded square pieces!

We embellished ours with the following supplies:

Nautical Expedition DSP (Summer Mini) & coordinating Card stock/Ink

The Open Sea Stamp Set (Summer Mini)

Broadsheet Alphabet stamp set
