Baby Suite of Gifts

Isn't this adorable? I'll post more about it later, but it's a gift for a friend who is having a little girl.

Digital Scrapbook Pages

I have loved scrapbooking since it became a hobby. I just don't have the time I want anymore to sit down and get all my stuff out and create projects the way I used to. (I blame the three year old for that!) But I LOVE being able to spend the few minutes each night that my husband gives my son a bath making a page or two with My Digital Studio. Here are the latest pages I sent to have printed. So when they arrive, I'll put them in a book and feel like I've scrapbooked!

Magnetic Bookmarks

  So my husband asked if I could help him make a bookmark that he could use in a magazine. He wanted it to be magnetic so that it wouldn't slide out of his page. So we made these two bookmarks last night. The magnets are hidden inside the layers of paper. It's a cute quick craft. I think it might become a new "in a pinch" gift.

The adhesive magnets worked perfectly and are pretty hefty! I've used them for tons of different projects!

It's also Sale-a-Bration time!! Which means that from now until March 31st every time you order $50 in products, you can choose one free product! It's my FAVORITE time of the year, the time when I stock up on adhesive, paper, ribbon and other things and then earn lots of free products! You can order online or email me with your order.

I Heart U

So lately I've been wanting to make 3D projects to decorate for the holidays (that and my husband said no more buying decorations) so for Valentine's day this is my second little project. I made it with chipboard and the Clear Scallop Square for the Big Shot. I embellished it with Love Letter Designer Series Paper and the stamp set Artistic Etchings. It turned out pretty cute!!

Can I just say that I am ADDICTED to these little Basic Rhinestone Accents! They are just so stinkin' cute!! I have to admit that I am just addicted to bling anyway (just check out my Irish Dance Costume if you have any doubts there) and these are so easy to use, they're adhesive so you don't have to mess with glue or anything. Order a pack, I guarantee you will not be disappointed!

Be Mine Banner

 

I've been wanting to make a pennant banner for a while now and I just recently purchased the Bigz XL Pennant Die for the Big Shot. This was the result of experiment, I learned a few things and will have a better idea next time but meanwhile I like this cute little banner for Valentine's Day.

Holiday Gifts Class Coming Up in November!!

  In my mind it's never too early to start thinking about Christmas gifts. Each year I try (and about half the time succeed) to get my shopping done the first week of December. I can enjoy more holiday time relaxing and enjoying the holiday rather than in a frantic effort to get ready at the last minute.

So I'll be helping you get ready too, I'll be hosting a handmade Christmas tag and gift class early in November and feature the following projects (among others). Don't think you can come to the class? There will be kits available for you to purchase and assemble at home.

 

Hand Dyed fleurettes on a ribbon bracelet.

 

 Handmade Christmas Tags with Rhinestone accents.

Simply adorned Charms with multiple inserts.

 Photo cards with snow globe accent. Great for grandparents!!

If you are interested in attending the class or want more information on the projects I'll be featuring (or a kit) send me an email at tuckeranne[at]gmail[dot]com or contact me through my Stampin' Up! website.

Well Behaved Women

This was another card I made for workshops this month. I used a stamp set I hadn't pulled out in a while as well as one of my new favorite ones. Cute right?

If you love these cards and would like to have your own set, you can purchase them from my etsy store. Hurry they won't last long!

Amour Card

I love the new set Artistic Etchings set. It's so retro and trendy and seriously my style. So this was one of the cards I made for a workshop this month, it's a 3x3 card. Love it!

If you just LOVE these cards, you can purchase them from my etsy store. Hurry, they won't last long!

Call Me!

So I decided to make a small gift to attach to some of the mini catalogs that I handed out recently, I made these matchbook Post-It holders to give out. The post-its I found matched Tangerine Tango and Pacific Point perfectly.

I attached my contact info on the first post-it and so it doesn't SCREAM my name. It was a fun project to make.

Cute as a Onesie

So this is a pattern I've wanted to use for a while, but I didn't have the right occasion to make a baby card! One of my dance teachers is having a girl so I made this for her for her baby shower. I got the pattern here.

Sick as a dog

So I had a couple of family members who could use a get well card and so I made these to send to them. I don't have a lot of the new supplies, but this is a stamp set that is still one of my favorites.

This was another one of my Stamp Club cards from this month...this one was a practice of adding a whole bunch to the page and making it still look good...sometimes I add too many things, but I like the way this one turned out.
