Sister Stamps Nobu Thank You Cards

I made some thank you cards for my sister, she always has to send out so many for all the gifts that people give to my nephew.  So I used Nobu from Sister Stamps.  I used the same layout but just changed out the Big Top Birthday background paper.

Christmas baked good gifts

I’m still catching up on these pictures that I took from before Christmas!  I made some baked goods to hand out to our co-workers.  Here is the table full of stuff before it was all packed up.

I decorated some plain Kraft bags using some of the stickers from the Christmas Lane Simply Scrappin’ kit.

I also made some tags using the scraps of those sticker.

Paper Doily Card

Happy New Year!!


Sneak Peak: The Paper Doily sizzlit will be available in the Occasions mini on Wednesday, and I couldn’t wait to use it. I made a simple card with a brad in the middle of the doily. I embossed the doily with the snow burst embossing folder.

One more Christmas card

Here is one more Christmas card that I forgot to show you. It is a gift card holder. I used the Letters to Santa DSP and a retired stamp set.

Ayako Birthday Card

Today is my friend’s daughter’s birthday, so I whipped up this Ayako Sister Stamps card for her.  I tried to match the colors to the background paper that I chose.

I made a little pocket for some cash using the soon-to-be-released Stampin’ Up! Framelit die.  I just cut off one of the edges.

All Occasion Tags

These are the tags that I made to fill up those up-cycled tins that I posted previously.

SNEAK PEAK:  The first two tags are made using the Labels Collection Framelits dies and the Apothecary Art stamp set that will be available on Jan 4th in the new Occasion Mini catalog.  I can’t wait for the Mini to come out, I love so many products from it.

The next two tags were cut using the Two Tags die.  I really love that die and use it all the time.

Up-cycled Tins

I’ve been saving all the tins that I get from my tea thinking that one day I would do something with them.  Well, this was the year!  I decorated a bunch of tins and filled some of them with SU! embellishments for my crafty friends, and the others I filled with all occasion gift tags.

I used the new Stampin’ Up! Labels Collection Framelits that will be coming out in the occasions mini catalog which you can purchase starting on Jan 4th.  The Framelits fit perfectly around the Upper Case Spencerian Alphabet.

And of course I couldn’t resist making one using Sister Stamps.  This is the same tin with a different girl on the front and back.  The left is Miyono and the right is Ayako.

Bag with Scallops Gift Card Holder

I needed a gift card holder but wanted to include some little candies with the gift card so it wouldn’t just be the card by itself.  So I decided to use my Bag with Scallops die and the gift cards fit perfectly with a handful of little chocolates.

I used the Delightful Decorations stamp set along with a retired stamp set for the sentiment.  I added the scallop dots ribbon for that extra touch.

I had to keep them simple as I had a bunch to make, but I still like how they turned out.  I’m also glad to be using one of my older dies that I sometimes forget about!
