Happy New Year's Eve!

Hi Stampers!
Here are a few fun, and sparkly cards I wanted to share with you. 

Card Recipe:
The Stamp sets are both retired, but you can use any greeting on this card.  It is says "CELEBRATE" to me, so you can celebrate anything!  :)
Card Stock:  Whisper White
Accessories:
Gold Glimmer Paper,
Dazzling Dimonds Glitter
Jet Black Stazon ink
Refill ink for Melon Mambo, Tempting Turquoise, and Garden Green
Stars Framelits
Stampin' Dimensionals
2-Way Glue

**For those who have not colored Dazzling Diamonds Glitter....IT'S SO MUCH FUN!  You can match your paper you are using plus give a sparkly shine to any paper!
I put a small amount of DD glitter in a small container, (I used an extra medicine measuring cup).  Add a few drops or to your liking of the refill ink and mix it together with a popsicle stick or you could use a plastic spoon, I just happen to have one on my craft table.  Mix it well and then let it dry.  I then cut the stars out and simply use the 2-Way glue to make the glitter stick.  It's THAT easy!

This is how the birthday card turned out. I think they both look fun! 

Happy Stampin'!!

Jiffy Pop Popcorn Snowman!

Hi Crafty Friends!
Here is a fun little gift I made for several friends and family members.  It is super easy to make and cute! 
What you need: 
1 Jiffy Pop Popcorn
 Whisper White, Basic Black, and Pumpkin Pie card stock. 
Ribbon of your choice, I used Cherry Cobbler
White Gel Pen
Glue Dots
Punches, 1" circle, 3/4" circle and I used the triangle from the Petite Pennants Builder punch

I just made a pattern for the black hat and traced a circle that would fit the cover of the pan.  Punched out 5, 3/4" circles and 2, 1" circles.  Then one orange triangle.  I added just a little white to the eyes and nose. I stuck them all one with the fabulous Glue Dots. 

If you have any questions please let me know!

Thank You~Letterpress Winter

Hi Stampers!
It's time....we have all received a gift or two that we really enjoyed, so now it's time to start on the Thank you notes.  I made these with the Letterpress Winter stamp set (available in the Holiday Catalog only until January 5th).  I cut a piece of Very Vanilla card stock down to 7 x 4 1/2 and stamped the decretive frame in Garden Green and stamped Thank you in Real Red.  I added some Dazzling Diamonds Glitter with the 2 Way Glue to the dots.  It's a super simple card, but sometimes it's the simple things that matter the most!

Merry Christmas! Last card in Christmas count down for 2014

Hi Stampers!
Merry Christmas!  I hope you are having a wonderful day.  Ours is coming to an end but has been packed full of wonderful memories. I wanted to share one last card with you that I needed to make for a special friend to fit a gift card.  Not the plastic kind, but the large paper print out certificate. 

I used the stamp set Ornamental Pine, which is only available until January 5th in the Holiday Catalog!  Stamped in Cherry Cobbler, Hello Honey and Real Red along with Garden Green and basic black.  The card stock is Whisper White and Real Red.  I added Dazzling Diamonds glitter to the Ornament to add the fun shinny look!

Magic Reindeer food

Hi Crafters!  I just had to toss this one in for the kids or the kids at heart!  I always make some kind of reindeer food with my kids.  This year we made these little packages to give away and I also made some for the craft show this year to sell (which was a HUGE hit!)  The bags are the 1"x8" bags in the Annual Catalog, #124134.  I just love these little bags, you can stick so many little treats in them! 

I found the cute little reindeer picture on line, I did a Google search and then printed it and this poem on the computer:

Magic Reindeer Food
Just sprinkle on the lawn at night.
The moon will make it sparkle bright.
As Santa's reindeer fly and roam,
this treat will guide them to your home!

If you celebrate Christmas, I hope you have a wonderful day and even if you do not, I hope your day is pleasant one! 

Thanks for stopping by!

Mini Holiday Gift Box

Hi Stampers!
I wanted to share these cute little boxes I made....with help from my two year old son for his Day Care providers.  I used the Gift Box Punch Board and a 6x6 piece of Under the Tree Specialty DSP.  Follow the directions on the board to make a box but I skipped the step of notching the corners to be able to close it.  Instead I used Glue Dots to fold it open.  Added a personalized note from the computer punched out with the Note Tag Punch and another one in either Real Red or Old Olive card stock and tied with coordinating Bakers' Twine.  The little bottle is bubble bath from Avon!  I just love those cute little bottles, they fit perfectly in the mini boxes! 

Don't forget January 5th is the LAST day or purchase any of the products from the Holiday Catalog.  You can check them all out on my website at www.stardust.stampinup.net
