Snowman Hershey Bar

Hello & Happy Sunday!

Hope your all having a nice weekend!

Yesterday I broke down and went to Urgent Care!

I have been dealing with a UTI since Thursday and I had some antibiotics here that I took which was not doing anything for me. I needed something stronger and my doctor is not open on Saturdays. 

I hated to go but I could not stand that feeling of having to pee every 5 minutes!

 Glad I went and got the medicine I needed! In & out in 20 mins.

Hopefully I will start feeling better!

Today I have a yummy sweet treat to share....

These are my all time favorites to make!

Snowman Keepsake Boxes

Hello & Happy Monday!

I am late at updating again today!

Life is a bit hectic right now but I am determined to get my blog updated everyday!

Today was my day to get some cleaning done! I am pooped!

Plus I volunteered to make a pot of soup for supper tonight. What was I thinking?!!

Although it is the perfect day for soup! We had rain & snow and it got very cold out! Burrr!

Everything is now finished and I have some free time to get you caught up!

My project today is made with the retired Curvy Keepsake Box Thinlits.

It retired last year but SU has a Mini Curvy Keepsake Box in the 2019 Holiday Catalog!

However, I did not get it since my old one works fine!

I pulled out my die along with some Coastal Cabana cardstock and cut the boxes out.

I used the Let It Snow Specialty DSP to cover 2 sides of my box.

Once that was all glued together I brought out my Snow Place stamp set and started building my snowman!

Project Details:

Stamps: Snow Place (retired), Itty Bitty Christmas

Ink: Memento Black, Coastal Cabana, Real Red, Early Espresso, Real Red & Pumpkin Pie Stampin Blends

Cardstock: Coastal Cabana, Whisper White, Let It Snow Specialty DSP

Inside, I stuffed 4 Lindor Milk Chocolate Truffles!

I hope this weekend after my Holiday Hoopla get together that I can get my goodies delivered to my card lady! I know she has been patiently waiting!

So very true!

Snow Friends Gift Card

Hello & Happy Sunday!

Hope your all enjoying the weekend!

We woke up to snow and no power this morning.

It threw my day off since I wanted to shower, go out for breakfast then grab my groceries.

Couldn't shower, couldn't dry my hair and couldn't run my Keruig to make a cup of coffee.

So we just got dressed and ran out to get our turkey and groceries. It was still snowing when we left but till we got back the sun was shining brightly but it was cold & windy!

I believe now we are ready for Thanksgiving!

Today I have another cute gift card holder to share.

These are usually a good seller at this time of year so i'm working ahead to get them made.

This one uses the retired set called Snow Friends.

Card Details:

Stamps: Snow Place (retired), Itty Bitty Christmas

Ink: Memento Black, Real Red, Coastal Cabana, Early Espresso, Pumpkin Pie & Real Red Stampin Blends

Cardstock: Coastal Cabana, Whisper White, Let It Snow Specialty DSP

Accessories: Snow Friends Framelits, Classic Label Punch, Circle Punch. Glittered Enamel Dots, Real Red Twine (retired), Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I really should be in my stamp room stamping more of these gift cards this afternoon but I decided to sit and watch football and work on some laundry.

Tonight I am gonna catch a movie on the Hallmark Channel then off to bed!

Tomorrow will be a busy day!

I can atleast manage the steps without too much pain.

Christmas Notebooks Part 3

Hello & Happy Saturday!

Today is Christmas Eve! 

I'm ready for the hoopla to be over although I do love the Christmas spirit!

I made a pan of lasanga for our Christmas Eve supper and i'm looking forward to a low key evening with Shawn, the 2 kids and of course my puppies!

Today I have the last of my Christmas Notebooks to share.

I made alot of them this year as my plan was to empty out my drawers, get them decorated and sold. The plan was successful as only 1 notebook came home with me.

Here are the last 4....

This one uses the Snow Place Bundle and Winter's Frost Specialty DSP.

This one uses the Cookie Cutter Christmas Bundle and the Candy Cane Lane DSP.

This one uses paper that came from AC Moore. Not sure of the maker. My penguin is from Whipper Snapper.

This last one uses the Santa's Sleigh Bundle and Pinecones & Presents DSP.

I did not get much use out of the Santa's Sleigh bundle this season but I hope to next year! 

I love the tree & the reindeer and the idea's I have seen for the sleigh are awesome!

******************************

My thoughts today...

I'll see you tomorrow!

Merry Christmas, friends!

Snow Place Hershey Bars

Hello & Happy Friday!

I'm SO glad the weekend is here! 

This week seriously flew by for me....probably because I was extremely busy with orders but I am happy to say that I finished up on Wednesday and yesterday I got everything delivered. I will probably have a few treat things to do yet for my own personal use for Christmas but i'm happy I got everything out to my customers!

Tomorrow is the last day of the Christmas craft show and then I can go pick up whatever is left. 

Today I want to share more of my Hershey Bar Wrappers I made this past week for an order.

I wanted to do something different on this batch and since I did not use my Snow Place Bundle very much this season, I decided to get it out and create some cute candy bars!

Snow Friends Candy Bars:

Stamps: Snow Place, Amuse sentiment (on snowman)

Ink: Basic Black Archival, Early Espresso, Real Red, Island Indigo, SU Pumpkin Pie Marker

Cardstock: Island Indigo,Winter's Frost DSP, Real Red, Candy Cane Lane DSP, Early Espresso, Whisper White

Accessories: Snow Friends Framelits, Circle Punch, Lg Oval & Scallop Oval Punch, Softly Falling EF, Rhinestones, Sm White Pom Poms, Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I was pleased with these! 

They took awhile to stamp & then cut each individual piece out but in the end they were definitely worth it, don't ya think?

*******************************************

My thoughts today.......

The holidays have now started for me!

I got lots of shopping to do and plenty to wrap!

Oh, and then there are treats to make & cookies to bake!

The joys of the holidays!

Bring it on!

Snow Place Penguin

Hello & Happy Tuesday!

It's a very rainy day here in PA today! It's very welcomed too!

We have not had much rain the last few months and our 3 inch deficit will get caught up over the next few days....hopefully!

Today I want to share a covered Composition Notebook that I whipped up for the craft show,

I used the Snow Place stamp set with some Warmth & Cheer DSP.

I wasn't too sure about this paper for Christmas but I thought it went well with my penguin. I also just used the NOTES stamp from a PaperTreyInk set so that this notebook could be used anytime of the year and not just for Christmas.

Penguin NOTES Notebook:

Stamps: Snow Place, PTI

Ink: Basic Black Archival, Delightful Dijon, Pumpkin Pie SU Marker

Cardstock: Delightful Dijon, Basic Black, Whisper White, Gold Foil Doilies, Warmth & Cheer DSP

What do you think?

**************************************

My thoughts today....

I have alot on my agenda today and it will be hard to get motivated with it being raining & dreary outside. I might have to declare today a PJ day! 

That's all for today!

Thanks for popping in & have a great day!

Snow Place Tags

Hello & Happy Friday!

TGIF!

Today I have another pack of Christmas Tags to share. 

I'm slowly starting to work on some Christmas things and tags have been on my agenda! 

These were alot of work but also fun to make!

Can you believe that I did not have one penguin stamp in my stamp collection?

I had this stamp set, Snow Place, in my sights last year when it came out then thought to myself that I really did not need it. Then a few months ago I was asked to make bridal shower invites with a penguin on and realized I did not have a single penguin stamp! After that I got the Snow Place set & matching Snow Friends Framelits and made this pack of tags for the upcoming holiday season! 

Cute aren't they?

Merry Christmas Penguin Tags:

Stamps: Snow Place

Ink: Basic Black Archival, Garden Green, Cherry Cobbler, Pumpkin Pie SU Marker

Cardstock: Garden Green, Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla, This Christmas Specialty Paper

Accessories: Snow Friends Framelits, 2 1/2 Circle Punch, Lucky Stars EF, Two Tags Bigz Die, Hexagon Punch (flag ends), Cherry Cobbler Thick Twine, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

I don't know why I did not take photo's of the tags before I packaged them up! 

I will just chalk it up to getting old & forgetful.

******************************************************

My thought for today.....

For sure!

That's all I have for today!

Thanks for stopping by & have a really great day!
