Foliage Thank You

Hello, everyone! Happy Friday! I guess I should say happy Saturday. It was a busy day and I never got around to post this. I made this "thank yous" for my sister. She want something unisex and that is hard to do as most of my stamps are flowers. She loved this one so I'm making them for her.

Well, I better go and get some sleep. Saturday is another busy day for me. Thank you for stopping by! Have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Stamping!

Love Box

Happy Thursday, everyone! Rainy day here in Vancouver but I like it that I get to stay home where it is warm inside. More reason to do some stamping.


A friend asked me to make a box cover for her. She made four clips for the table for a friend of hers. I'm not what they are called but you clip them to the four corners of the table to make your table look nice. She had the box bottom but needed the top. At first she wanted me to make an acetate top but I don't have any acetate. So I made a paper top instead.

I made the top to match the colours of the clips. What do you think? I really like it. My DH really loved it. It wasn't hard to make the top but it was hard to tape them together. Not very easy to work with something so big. I had to stamped the swirls 4 times before I get it right. I also made a cardboard backing to hold the clips down. I used the cardboard from the backing of the Designer Series Paper. Those backing are really useful.

Well, I'll be giving this box to her tonight. Our church is having our annual Missions Conference so I'll be seeing her. Gotta go and thank you for visiting today!

Happy Stamping!

Joy Card

Hello, everyone! Here is a Christmas card for you. Very simple one. I use the Perfect Polka Dots Impression Folder for the background and the sentiment is from the Scenic Season stamp set. The Christmas ornament is from the Delightful Decorations stamp set. I like this ornament the most from this stamp set and use it a lot.

Thank you for visiting today!


Happy Stamping!

I used the Northern Hearts hostess stamp set and the Jolly Holiday Designer Series Paper to make this card. The sentiment is from the All Holidays stamp set. Gotta go and make more Christmas cards.

Thank you for visiting today!

Nursery Meeting Decorations

Here are some pictures I took of the decorations. Not very fancy but I like it. Wish they have different colour table cloths for me to choose from.

I bought the center piece from Superstore (a Canadian supermarket).


I spread all the leaves on the table and I made pumpkins too to go on the table.


Here a close up of the pumpkins. Each pumpkin has 12 scallop circles or scallop ovals. I sponge each and everyone of them. It took me a long time to punch, glue and sponge all these pumpkins. I glad it is over. All the ladies loved the decorations. They were over joy when I let them take everything home. They literally took everything. Except the center piece that belongs to the church.

Thank you for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!

For those of you who emailed me for the template for the holder I'll email you it to you when I get a chance to put it into the computer. I have to wait for my DH to help me with that. He's the computer pro in the family.

Happy Stamping!

Cutlery Holder

Hello, everyone! Happy Friday! Today is a very busy day for me. I'm babysitting and after that I'll be going to a Nursery Meeting at night. So what's all those things in the above picture? They are cutlery holders. This was what I was talking about for the pass few days.


I made these to decorate for the Nursery Meeting. I made the pattern to hold a fork, a knife and a spoon. What do you think? You like? I love this holder!


Here is how it looks like with the cutlery in it.


Here is a close up of the front of the holder. The leaves are die cut. I sponged the leaves in Chocolate Chip ink and my fingers looked all brown after I don't know how many leaves I sponged. I made leaves to go on the table also so I'll show you that tomorrow.


Happy Stamping!

Thank you for visiting! Have a good day!

Autumn Thank You Card

Hello, everyone! Happy Wednesday! What a beautiful sunny fall weather today. Don't you just love the feeling of fall weather? I love all those changing colour of the leaves on the trees. They are so beautiful.

Here is a card inspired by all those beautiful fall leaves. This is a new stamp set called French Foliage from the Holiday Mini Catalogue. There are wonderful new stamp sets in there I must have. Not so crazy for the Halloween stuff. I love the the Designer Fabric Stampin'Up! is selling. I love fabrics. I used to sew a lot and make tons and tons of outfit. Now you have to have lots of money to sew. It is so much cheaper to buy clothing than sew them. Sigh!

Thank you for stopping by! Have a lovely day!

Happy Stamping!

Birthday Heart Card


Happy Tuesday, everyone! Here is a quick card for you. I have the heart piece laying around waiting to be use and finally I put it onto a card. What do you think of the card? I don't quite like it to much. It looks alright but it just doesn't stand out at all. Oh, well!

I'm busy making things to decorate our church for a Nursery Workers Meeting this Friday. I'll show you when I'm decorate the church this Friday. I'll take pictures I promise.

Thank you for visiting today! Have a good one!

Birthday Wishes Flowers Card

Hello, everyone! Happy Monday! I was busy this weekend moving all my stamping stuff downstairs to the living room. We separated the girls from my son so now he have his own room. That means I have to move out of one of the bedroom I used for stamping before.

This is of the card I made to give to my future SIL. I packaged up 20 different cards and gave them to her. It is her birthday today. Hope she likes them all. She is such a sweetheart.

Thank you for stopping by! Have a wonderful day!

Halloween Treats

Hello, everyone! Happy Friday! I don't celebrate Halloween but my sisters and nephew does. So I made these little treat for them to give to their friends at school.

A sour cream container with a little bag of Mott's Fruit Sensation inside.

The sour cream container is made with a quarter sheet of Whisper White cardstock. The bottom of the container is sealed and the top it not. The opening is tie with a ribbon and can be open when you take the ribbon out. This way the kids (might) not ruin the container if any of them care to keep it. But with kids you never know.

Thank you fro stopping by and have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Stamping!

Long, Long Time...

Hello, everyone! It has been a long time since I last post. I've been busy, lazy, sad and many other things coming to me all at once. Crafting just became the back burner of it all and now I'm trying to get back into stamping. I did manage to make "thank you" cards for my sister. She is married now so she needed them to thank people. It is a very simple "thank you" card cause that is the way my sister likes it and is easy for me to do to get back to stamping groove.


Thank you for stopping by and visiting my blog! Have a wonderful day!
