Here are two of my door prize boxes. I'm still working on them, so they are just the boxes w/o the prize!! I got the box from Stampin' Up! website. I just did not add all the dividers. I used the Christmas Cocoa Specialty paper from the Holiday mini catalog. I used Kraft paper on one box and whisper white on the other.

Here's another project we will be making at my Hostess Thank You party. Funny I don't think any of my girls look at my blog, so they won't even know about this until they come on Saturday. Anyway, it's a cute note holder box that I got from Teri's blog. She gives directions on how to make it on her blog. You can put little 3x3 cards in it or candy. I just thought it was cute box.

Just in case you have not noticed I LOVE boxes!!!

I hope the girls enjoy making this. I have several projects planned for them and then we are doing a shoebox swap, eating lunch, having door prizes and then I'm giving them all gifts. How can I not?? These clubs are the most WONDERFUL group of ladies!!! They buy from me all year long and come to all of my classes and workshops. A few of them are even my downline and still are members of my clubs!! So, they deserve a day of receiving instead of buying!!!

Christmas Moose Crunch

This is what my herd of moose look like before making them into a topper for Christmas Moose Crunch.
This is one of the gifts I am giving my hostess at my hostess club "Thank you" party. The crunch is very easy to make. Since I love Harry & David's Moose Munch I thought I would try to make some so it would be a more reasonable gift since I am making it for 20 people.

So here is my version of the munch. I bought Crunch and Munch and opened the bag. I heated up some white chocolate chips in the microwave on defrost for about 3 mins. Sitrred it and then drizzled it all over the Crunch and Munch. Next I heated the red chocolate just like the white chocolate and did the exact same thing. While the chocolate was still soft I crushed up some peppermint candy and sprinkled it on top of the chocolate. I let it cool and then I broke it up and put in SU's small cellophane bags #103104 (50 for only $4.95).

Contact me if you would like to place an order.
Here is a close up of just one moose that I saw on this website. I just made the head because as you can see in the other picture I put the moose's head on a topper of Christmas Moose Crunch that I made. He was easy to make, but I did have to make 20 of them, so it took me a few hours.

Tiles

Here are 2 different type of tiles I made, but used similar techniques. I got the idea from Kimberly Van Diepen's blog She has directions on there as to how to make these. Basically you use craft ink, glassy glaze enamel, and bake them at 350 degrees for 10 mins. It's really easy!! We will be making something similar to this at my Hostess Thank You party I'm giving my hostess club groups.

This is a project that my upline, Colleen, had for us to do at her downline meeting. It was really a cute idea. She had all of it punched for us and all we had to do was stamp the greeting and put it together. Isn't it a cute idea??

Here's a picture of my daughter, Sarah and her friends on Senior Night. My daughter Sarah is in the middle and her friend on the left is Sarah and the one on the right is Melissa. I cannot believe that this is Sarah's senior year and she will be going away to college next year!!

I received a card very similar to this as a swap at convention. I think the only difference was that she had ribbon around the bottom of the cupcake. I made this for my stamp clubs to copy. I gave the person credit at my clubs, but I think someone accidentally took hers and now I don't have her name.
This is the inside of the cupcake card that holds the gift card. I think anyone would love to receive this as gift!!

Here's another ornament I made, but did not use for my ornament exchange. Again, once it was done I thought he penguin was way too big. Again, I found this penguin on a blog, but don't know which one. I promise to get better so I can give the people credit for their work. I used the circle globe on Stampin' Up! website, but just made it like an ornament instead of a card.

I saw an ornament similar to this one on another blog. I have got to get better about remembering who's blog I see things on. Her ornament was a little different, but I pretty much cased it. I did not like mine when it was done. I thought my bird was way too big.

I was trying to make an ornament for an ornament exchange I was participating. I made several different ones before I decided on the one w/the Santa punch like the easel card, but made on a scallop circle. You cannot tell from the picture, but it was sprayed with the shimmer paints and looked really sparkly.

Here is one of my cards that I made for my Stamp a Stack I had last month. I just LOVE this Santa Punch art. I cannot remember who made it, but it was on the USTAMP group for the holiday. She had it on a block, but I made in on an Easel Card. I have made him on a box, an ornament and this card. He's made using punches and cutting strips of paper. Since this is not my original idea, I don't think I can post how I made him.
