Last of My Christmas Stuff

I think I am done stamping Christmas projects for this year. I'm ready to move on the the next stamping holiday. Don't get me wrong, I am NOT over Christmas, I can't wait for it to get here. The next week is full of fun and holiday cheer!This is the version of my photo ornaments that I am giving the grandparents. I used the top note die and the designer paper , Holiday Treasure to do this one up. I stamped the Merry Christmas sentiment from the Cute and Curly stamp set but I omitted the "dear friend" part since we are giving this to Nana and Papa. I decided it was important to include the year so I stamped 2008 in that space on the label using Simple Serif mini alphabet. I added some celery grosgrain ribbon and two beautiful felt fusion snowflakes to finish this side of the ornament. On the flip side of the ornament I die cut the picture we used in our Christmas cards to complete the backside of the ornament. I just adored making these and look forward to hearing the grandparents gush over them when they open them next weekend. Hope you all are enjoying the weekend. I might have one or two more Holiday posts to share since I am not doing much new stamping this week-There are cookies to bake and presents to wrap.

Hugs, Lisa

Same card, Two versions

I figured out the third card we'll be doing at my Holiday SAS on the 16th. As I said yesterday, I fell in love with the floral prints included in the Holiday Treasures pack of dsp. So while playing around with this paper on Saturday I also came up with this CAS (clean and simple) card. My class is shaping up nicely with 7 ladies coming and two card kits being put together. If you wanted to come but can't, I am more than willing to stamp the images and package the supplies all together for assembly at home. The cost is the same, $20, so just let me know. Yesterday was the RSVP by date, but I still have room for at least 3 more. I will take registrationn up until Friday of this week. Thanks to those who already registered. Okay, now on the the cards. As you can see, they have the same basic layout. I just changed up the pattern paper, the ribbon and the center of the flower. The stamp set I used is Season of Joy. I love the richness of the choc. chip with the regal rose and rose red. The scalloped edge is the perfect touch of elegance. One more thing for today.

Don't forget to

VOTE!!

I'm off to the polls. Here's to not waiting in long lines. I'm anticipating a two hour wait, so anything less will just be joyful! Happy Election day, 2008!

Hugs,
