Gifts for Friends at OnStage Orlando Stampin' Up Convention

It's always fun to share gifts with our friends at the Stampin' Up gatherings

This year I made little divided boxes 

I found the idea somewhere and it was shared by Hannah from the UK

These are so cool because they are pretty sturdy and you can put candy in them, OR you can use them for little trinkets, embellishments for your stamping friends, 

or just about anything you can think of!!

I ended up making seven of them - they are fast, easy and FUN!

Here's a closeup picture

and another one

If you are interested in making these cute boxes, you can download a pdf tutorial here

All of the products used and step by step instructions are included in the tutorial

Organized Swap for OnStage in Orlando this week

We absolutely love swapping at our Stampin' Up Events

And we come home with absolutely tons of ideas!!

Here's a swap I did for an "oganized" swap

We will meet and trade cards

Fun, fun

This picture doesn't do this justice - it's very stunning IRL (in real life!!)

I'm LOVING the Wishing You Well stamp set in the Holiday Catalog (page 35)

Have you noticed the bow?

I have shared this set and the bow with my club members and they all LOVE it

Are you bow tying challenged?  Yep, like most of us

This bow is the new DistINKtive stamp and is SO realistic

I highly recommend this stamp set just for the bow

And it's not only good for the holidays, but for any occasion!!

Doesn't it look realistic?

And that's a stamp!!  

The new DistINKtive stamps have wonderful dimension!

Grand Prize for my Christmas Card Class - Sampler

It's always fun to share something special for my classes

Yesterday was my Christmas Card Class

I included three cards (2 of each ) and a 10 card One Sheet Wonder

They all had a great time and it was totally a fun day!

Here's the Grand Prize

This is the true story!!  

I took all the names and put them in a basket.  I actually waded up the slips!!

I shook them up and then had one of my gals choose the name.

She scrambled them up again and guess who's name she drew???  

HER OWN!

We had a good laugh over that!  

I cased this from Darla Roberts with changes since I didn't have the exact sets she used!  

I LOVE how it turned out

Measurements

The Frame is 12" x 12"

I used one piece of the Joyous Noel Specialty Designer Series Paper for the background

Each square is Sahara Sand 3" x 3"

Very Vanilla 2 7/8" x 2 7/8"

Top layer (where there is one) is 2 3/4" X 2 3/4"

I measured 1" from each side/top and 1/2" between squares

I purchased the frames at Michael's

They came in a two-pack and I  bought some in White and Black

At the time I purchased them there was a B1G1F on all display frames!
