Sample from Montreal Regionals

April 7th, 2008

This is a great sample that one of the demonstrator’s who attended this event, brought and shared with us. She was kind enough to hand one out to each of us.

She has taken a large containter ( you can buy them at Costco ) of candy pops and decorated them all , and put them back in the container. Then taken the lid and hole punched a few spots in the top to put some the candy pops so they look like flowers out of the top.

Just to add to the sweetness …she has wrapped two bands of ribbon around the container.!!!  I think this is so CUTE!!!!

What a great idea to make for kids’ parties, class events …….the ideas are unlimited!!

Flower pot Card

March 18th, 2008

Last night at our Monthly Stamp Club ,the  group  made two beautiful projects!

Since we are all waiting for Spring to come, I decided to make some projects using stamps from the Spring Mini Brochure to get  us in the mood.

The first one we made is what is called a Flowerpot Card.  This is not my original design, but a twist on somthing someone else had made.  The details and template can be found at :

www.newenglandstamper.com/my_weblog/2008/02/flower-pot-card.html

The Second Project we made was also using the New ‘ Tart and Tangy ‘ set from the Spring Mini.  We made an Scratch and Sniff Card!!  If you scratch the orange , it smell’s like orange’s.

The girls loved it!!
