Can't Wait for Thanksgiving

I am in a real hurry for Thanksgiving to get here. Not only for the fun times with family and all the good food but for the time off. I am taking the Wednesday before and the Monday after off. Monday is my birthday..the big 37. Wow. I can't believe that. I already have plans for every single day of my break. And no, can you believe it? No stamping is in the plan. Cleaning, cooking, organizing, decorating for Christmas and completing a family cookbook (big project) are all in the plan. Even though no stamping will be involved, I am looking forward to some productive time at home. What are your plans for Thanksgiving? Oh yeah, Emily will be on a CRUISE! Everyone else?

More Gift Class Projects

And here are a few more....

Ceramic tiles we made into coasters.


I couldn't find enough of any one jar so the AM class made the larger one and the PM class made the smaller one. I honestly think the smaller one is cuter. Is cuter a word? I don't think so.


This is a gift card holder. It isn't the one we actually made but this is another version using different paper.



A little book, inspired by Terri Stewart!

Gift Class Projects

Here are pics of some of the projects we made at the Gift Making Class. They were all really fun to make. Post it note holder #1.

Post it note holder # 2.

Mini - basket made from the Big Shot die cut machine!

A cute idea I got from the Stampin Up Regionals...this was a swap Emily received.

Coffee mug with stamped tag.

Gift Making Class

Wow - what a weekend!! I had 2 gift making classes on Saturday. I think everyone had fun and enjoyed the projects. I have to admit, I am glad it is over. I SOOO very much enjoyed visiting with everyone and having them over but I was exhausted and even hurting...I realized my back does not like for me to be on my feet for 21 hours in a row! I was popping Advil all day on Sunday! I am thinking only one class will be offered from now on :) I will post pictures of the projects soon...hopefully tonight.
