Some Christmas gifts

Here are some boxes I made for Christmas gifts for my kids teachers. I put chocolate covered pretzels and a Starbucks gift card in each one. I followed the instructions found here on Splitcoast.









I also made this card at Archiver's one morning. It was a free make and take.



Plus I made this pail. It was a $5 make and take at Archiver's. However the line was so long to make it that we just got the supplies and took it home. I made it several days later then put candy in it and used it as part of my bunco gift.





I have had these pictures on my desktop to publish these for a while and am just now getting around to it. Maybe I should have made a resolution to be a better blogger in 2010.

more make and takes

Kaitlyn and I also made this mini album at Archiver's on Saturday. This was a pay make and take but only costs $10 (well worth it). Here are the pictures of mine. I haven't put a title on it yet because I am not sure what I am going to use it for. We used the bind-it-all along with some pre-punched photo sleeves. I bought some extra while there to make some more of these. They were quick and easy.

Free make and take

Kaitlyn and I went with Kelley to Archiver's on Saturday and did the make and takes. These two were free. We made a little journal card and a circle Thanks card.

Here are the ones I made.

Free Make and Take (2)

Archiver's had another free make and take this weekend. Here are the two things I made:

We used a piece of acetate to stamp the tree and then shaded the card with the green ink and a sponge. Simple yet pretty!



And I really like this gift tag. I especially like the glitter red paper we used (not sure if you can see the glitter part real well in the photo but it really adds something extra to the tag). Amy and I think we have the two scallop squares (I have one and she has the next size up) so I hope to make some cute tags at the crop this Friday.

Free Make and Take

Last weekend for National Scrapbook Day my favorite store, Archiver's, had a free make and take. I took Kaitlyn shopping on Saturday so she was with me when we stopped in. We both made the card (and made sure to use the Mother's Day sentiment stamped on it) and then Kaitlyn made the border. She had so much fun, especially making the border. She is going to start her first scrapbook for the lads to leaders program this summer and I will probably slowly begin taking her to some crops. Here is Kaitlyn with her projects and a close up of the card we both made.

Free Card

I went to Archiver's last weekend just to browse and they had a free make and take card. The woman helping me was not very helpful. She wanted to do it for me. I really wanted to tell her I could do it myself, I am a seasoned stamper. Nevertheless, here it is:
