This is the little recipe book I created for tonight's Open House! It has all three crock pot dinners I'm making PLUS a bonus recipe!
I just love this little chef! Normally I'd add glitter - because glitter goes with EVERYTHING! Well, with the exception of cooking!! Our Tastefully Simple products sparkle enough without the added help of my Stampin'Up! Dazzling Diamonds!! LOL!!
Really, should be a great event and I hope you will take the time to stop by!!
I just LOVE my Under the Stars stamp set!! I use it all of the time because it is just so fun!!
I made this little Smores kit in the spring for a class, but never got a class scheduled for it!! Oh well, sometimes that's just how it works! I still love the kit and you could re-create it in any color!! I'll certainly miss the Kiwi Kiss that is used here!
SPECIAL!!!!! The Under the Stars set is in the Growing Up section of the Stampin'Up! idea book/catalog! This set combined with any other set from that section will earn you FREE BUTTONS this month courtesy of Stampin'Up! To place an order simply visit www.stampchic.stampinup.net and SHOP NOW!
Hope you are having a great day!!
WOW! Aren't these cool!! One of my first customers, Debra Butland, made these and brought them to Stamp Club last month!
Deb is super talented and always brings her stuff for us to OOOO and AAHHHH over!!
Christmas Club starts tonight at 7 pm and we still have room for two more if you are interested! I'd love to have you!! I'll post the cards and tags later in the week!!
If you'd like to leave a comment for Deb I know she would love to read them!! Have a great day and thanks for stopping by!!
This is a great little fold for Valentine Treats!! We made these at club on Monday and I wish I had taken a picture of all the different papers folded!! I didn't love the Raspberry Tart paper when I first received it - a little loud for my taste! Well, I guess I'm used to it because I just ordered another pack - LOL!! I'll have to make sure I'm wearing my sunglasses when I open that box!!
This was a great little project to show people because they can make them so easily and it is a great use for double sided papers that you aren't sure what to do with!! No adhesive required - the brad holds it all in place! I used a 6 x 6 piece of paper, but any square will do!
All supplies Stampin'Up: Raspberry Tart designer series paper, Kiwi Kiss Textured card stock, Rose Red card stock, Five Petal Punch, Flower Trio Punch (retired), Ice Circle Rhinestone Brads, Crop-a-dile, Bone Folder. (Twizzler's optional!)
Well, I hope to get one more post done before I leave on my trip to the Tastefully Simple On Tour seminar! It will be two days of tasting the new summer products! I can't wait to see what is in store!! There is still time to order the winter line, just click on the upper right of my blog to order Stampin'Up or Tastefully Simple! Have a Great Day!!
These are the "advertising" gifts I gave to over 200 Scrapbookers at an event I attended over the weekend! I really enjoyed scrapping and visiting with the ladies at the event! If you received one of these give me a call and place your order!! If you are interested in receiving my newsletter email me at tvkennedy@sbcglobal.net and I'll get you added to the group!!
I used a lot of retired ribbon and paper on these and they were super cute!! You will notice the date on the post it - February 28th! That is Stamp a Stack class I am holding here at my house! Email me at tvkennedy@sbcglobal.net to reserve a spot!! Can't wait to see you and do some stamping!!
Check out the 30 Boxes calender on the blog for more classes and class specifics!!
Have a great day!!
Ok, now this is so fun! When I first received this die I was a little disappointed because it is an envelope die and I thought a gift card would fit inside the envelope. No such luck! So, I put it to the side for several months! Well, I saw someone do this little basket with it on Splitcoast and voila! Love it! I made some of these on Saturday at the Big Shot class and instantly thought Easter Basket! Well, I decided to make one for Norah's teacher for valentine's Day! I still need to do the tag and fill it, but I really like it thus far!! Once they are done for all of the teachers I'll take a pic for you!
Isn't that cute! It's the perfect little Valentine basket! I think I'll put some Chocolate and a Tastefully Simple sample in there! I've got to run to the doctor, but will be adding this die shape to my Big Shot shapes store later today! Be sure to come back and check it out! This is retired paper, so I will make some with current paper and card stock to show you!
Take care and have a great day!!
This is the little basket the kindergartners in Norah's class will be getting at the Valentine's Day party! I'm trying to decide if I'm going to do a "boy" version too. What do you think?
They probably won't care about the pink as long as the candy inside is good! I'm just going to have Norah write her name on the tag before I add the flower! And I'll probably use silver brads instead of my rhinestone ones! I don't think the kindergartener's will care!!
All Supplies Stampin'Up!: Big Shot, Baskets & Blooms die, Extended plates for Big Shot, Real Red card stock, Pretty in Pink card stock, Pink Taffeta Ribbon, Fire Circe Brads, Sticky Strip.

Here is a super cute and quick tag! They look great on any present, but I am doing the majority of my wrapping this year in brown wrap!
This was one of the two tags we did at our final Christmas Club meeting where we made bags & tags! I like doing little tags because they are instant gratification!! I'll be working on the 2nd layout for Scrap Club today! The first one turned out so cute I can't wait to post it!!
All supplies Stampin'Up!: Snow Swirled stamp set, Kiwi Kiss Classic Ink Pad, Riding Hood Red Classic Ink Pad, Kiwi Kiss card stock, Very Vanilla card stock, 2 way glue pen, Dazzling Diamonds Glitter, 1/8" handheld circle punch, Riding Hood Red Taffeta Ribbon.
I'd love to see cards you all made for the holidays!! If you send me one I'll be sure to post it here!! I've already received a couple to post this week so be sure to check back often!
Have a great day!!
This is another one of the items we made at Bags & Tags! Love this quick easy topper and if you tie the ribbon it keeps people from peeking in the bag!
I used a regular kraft bag and cut the topper to be 1/4 inch larger than the bag for the width. I cut the paper 8" so I would have a 4" front/back. Then the Designer Series Paper is cut to fit below the slot for the handles and leave a 1/4 inch edge all around. To cut the slot I used the Word Window Punch after I scored the topper and creased it! You only go half-way in on the punch so once the topper is opened flat it looks like the slot from the punch! Slide it on and tie a bow to keep the peepers out!! No one can tie a nice bow at my house so I know if they have peeked!!
All Supplies Stampin'Up! unless noted: Riding Hood Red card stock, Holiday Treasures Designer Series Paper, Pink Pirouette 1 1/4" Grosgrain Ribbon, Craft Bag (non SU).
I hope you enjoy this quick and easy project!! I have a workshop tonight and Technique Club tomorrow!!

Hello Everyone! I hope you are having a great day! Sorry for the break in action!! I was so busy with Open House, the Rosehill Elementary Fundraising Booth and our house has been blessed with the Stomach Flu despite getting the kid's their annual flu shot!! Oh well, gotta try!!
This is one of the items we made last week at Christmas Club! We did bags and tags for our final meeting!! I really enjoyed this club and have lots of my cards made because of it!! Now I just have to finish up the other 150! Eeeck!! Better get going on that!
I love making these little gift card tins! They are super easy! If you are in the KC area and need some tins I have a ton of them available for purchase at $1.50 each if you can pick them up!! They make great craft fair items, presents and hostess gifts! I'll be giving one to Misti tomorrow night for the workshop she is doing for me with a free class voucher inside!! For the workshop, we are making a tin similar to this, a Santa tag, a card and a 6 x 6 scrap page! I hope the ladies enjoy their evening! I'd love to hear what everyone else does for workshops! Please leave a comment here and I'll send 5 random people some ribbon samples for FREE!!
