Mini Circle Valentine Box & Card

Hi Stampers,

Today I'm sharing My Craft Project Central project with you!

Your Valentine will feel extra special when you dress up fancy candy in these cute mini circle boxes and pair them with the coordinating card. The boxes are so quick and easy to make and every piece of candy is its own little gift! The Ferrero Rocher candy is a great choice for Valentine ’s Day, but if you want something for your younger Valentines try stacking Mini Peanut Butter Cups in the boxes!

The tutorial for these cute boxes and the card are avaliable at Craft Project Central when you subscribe for December.

Christmas Gift Tags...

Are you working hard on wrapping those presents yet??? I always like to add a little handmade tag to my presents whenever I can (Translate: When I get my wrapping done earlly and not at the last minute) :) At my December Team Meeting we swapped Gift Tags - We got two of each - which is a GREAT help!! I've got my tags all ready to go ...

Of course I completely forgot to take a picture of MY tags before swapping them away .. but I did take some pictures of my downline's tags - they're SO SUPER talented .. I LOVE these tags!!

Here's a little inspiration to get you all in the present wrapping mood...

Crista's Tag

Denise's Tag

Sue's Tag

Barb's Tag

Lisa's Tag

I always try to get my presents wrapped early so I can have fun putting them together and decorating the packages.  What about you?? Are you a wrap all month long and do an over the top job kinda wrapper - or a last minute hurry up and get it done?? Leave a comment and tell me about your present wrapping...

Stocking Builder Punch

Hi Stampers. I just received word from Stampin' Up! that one of the most popular items in the current Holiday Mini will not be carried over to the brand new Idea Book & Catalog that comes out July 1st, 2012!! This means the punch will only be avaliable for a short time more...

Here's the announcement from SU:

"Our occasion-specific mini catalogs allow us the opportunity to share the latest seasonal products with you and your customers, and we often carry over products from our mini catalogs into the following Idea Book & Catalog. This time, however, we have decided not to carry over the Stocking Builder Punch (item 124095) from the 2011 Holiday Mini Catalog into the next Idea Book & Catalog.

Once the current inventory of this punch has been depleted, it will no longer be available for purchase. We hope many Stampin' Up! stockings will adorn cards and brighten holiday projects this season and look forward to seeing what you create with the next seasonal design."

So if you still have the punch on your wish list - you'll want to order it now before they are gone!! Visit my online store to put in your order.

Very Merry Chocolates...

I love getting together with my Stampin' Up! team and no get together is more fun than our Create, Ink! December Christmas Party / Team Meeting! The party is always filled with good food, fun projects, and tasty gifts :)

Barb hosted this year's get together and she has Little Chocolate treats for everyone!

Barb used one of my FAVORITE stamp sets - It's a Wrap Holidays (See it Online) to stamp labels for the Chocolates. She put them into a Cello Bag and then added a cute topper featuring the Holly Berry Boquet Product Suite!

These make great little last minute gifts .. and if you don't already own the Stamp Set it's not too late - You can buy the My Digital Studio version of the set, download it right away, and start printing. Check it out by clicking here.

Last Minute Gift Ideas - Modern Prints Calendar

I loved creating my team gifts this year! I fell in LOVE with the 2012 Modern Prints Calender template when it came out and decided that I wanted to make them.

I printed up the calendars with no picture at the top so each page could  be embelished. I decorated January to get them started, but since this gift was for my Team Christmas Party I wanted them to be able to decorate the upcoming months however they wanted so I left them as is, ready for embellishing.

The pages are all double sided with the Modern Prints Papers printed on the background so this gift is Green too. After each month is finished they can cut the page up and use the patterened paper on cards or other paper projects.

You can recycle an old CD Case for these calendars but you need to take them apart to make them stand up. I like to use the cases designed to be calendar cases since them open up and stand all in one motion. Mine came from Calendar Cases.

What I LOVE about this project is it's so Quick and Easy to create - perfect for Last Minute Gifts and you don't even need to own My Digital Studio to create it - it's very easy to print the "For Other Applications" versions of the template for your calendars!

I created a quick Tutorial for you, taking you through the steps of making these calendars for both MDS Users and For creation with other applications.
