Scallop Edge Ornaments

I know that Christmas has come and gone. I think you could do them for any holiday not just Christmas. The directions can be found on Taylor's Blog. I had just ordered the scallop edge punch and couldn't resist making these cute ornaments. Here are the 2 that I made this weekend.

Stamps: Punches Three (2008 Fall Winter Catalog)

Paper: Real Red, Handsome Hunter, Whisper White, Close to Cocoa and Pixie Pink

Christmas Gifts

As sewing is one of my other hobbies, this year I worked on making 2 christmas tree skirts for a couple of friends. One of them had snowmen on it and the other was with red poinsettas. They both turned out really nice and I wanted to share them with you.

Valentines Cards/Treats

Recently I finally got back into stamping and made these cute pencil holders. I cased it from Robin Lea but the directions came from Laurie and I think these turned out really cute. I'm hoping to make more for my daughter's friends at church.

Paper: Real Red, Whisper White, & Basic Black

I also cased this cute card from splitcoaststampers. She used the scallop edge punch from Stampin up but since I didn't have that one yet, I decided to substitute and use the spiral punch.

Missing in Action

Sorry to have not been able to post since the end of July but with working full time, taking care of the kids and helping out with my mother-in-law, it hasn't left much time for blogging. I'm hoping over the next month or so to get back at it regular. Please keep checking back to see what I'll be posting.
