Did you catch yourself humming this awesome holiday song while checking out this fabby project!?
Rockin’ around the Christmas tree

Mistletoe hung where you can see
ev’ry couple tries to stop.

Rockin’ around the Christmas tree,
let the Christmas spirit ring.
Latter we’ll have some pumpkin pie
and we’ll do some caroling.

You will get a sentimental feeling
when you hear voices singing
“Let’s be jolly,
Deck the halls with boughs of holly.”

Rockin’ around the Christmas Tree.
Have a happy holiday.
Ev’ryone dancing merrily
in the new old fashioned way.

Digital Fun

Quick post today to share a super cute witch card Jen R. made using one of the Limited Edition YNS Digital stamps. Be sure to check out all the fun digi stamps HERE. They are only available until Dec. 31 2011

Here’s Jen’s card along with some info in her own words…

Today I’d like to show you a card I made for the October Sketch for You To Try using one of the new Your Next Stamp digital stamps. I printed the Cute Witch onto some Neenah cardstock and coloured her with my Copics. Then I made a little scene with her using some of the WRMK Spookville papers. What I like about digital stamps is that you can make your image as big or small as you need for your project. To embellish my card I used another one of the Martha Stewart pre-made accordion embellishments I got at Liquidation World, changed the colour with distress ink and stamped my sentiment onto it before adding a twine bow.

Have a fun and creative day!

A little Something…

If you haven’t read Carole’s CCC #2 post yet you MUST check it out!!! It’s a witty and fun post to read plus she’s got a little giveaway contest for those of you who choose to share an answer to her question!!! FUN FUN FUN!!!

CCC #2 made me realize that I’ve never made a card just for me. I always make my cards/projects with someone in mind but it’s never myself so I decided to create a little something with ‘me’ in mind in honor of Carole’s birthday and this is what I made…

It’s a cute little gift box featuring the very 1st Fhiona stamp that started it all – Shopper Fhiona!!! I LOVE her so much!!! She was the very first design that drew me to Fhiona Galloway Designs and since that day we’ve have added lots of fabulous new Fhiona stamps just like the one Carole used on her CCC # 2 card.
I love the colors Raspberry Pink and Bright Blue so I decided to pair it up with favorite Chocolate Brown card stock! YUMMY!!! I just love that adorable little gift box/bag template too!  Thanks to Kerri I discovered a really fun site called Perfect Presentation – be sure to check it out!
My little gift box/bag wouldn’t be complete without some bling so I added a few YNS Glittered Skittles and some YNS Sparkly Flat Backs along with a little bit of glittered ribbon – FUN! The only thing that’s missing is some buttons…hmmm…maybe next time OR maybe I’ll fill the little box/bag with some yummy buttons!!! LOL
Remember to leave a comment for Carole by Sept 25th for your chance to WIN!!!
Plus don’t forget about our YNS Challenge #51 – Paper Piecing!!! We would love for you to join in all the FUN for your chance to win some yummy YNS stamps!!!
I’ll see you all back here on Thursday with my super fun YNS secret!!! Woot! Woot!

One more peeky before the big day!

WOW! What an awesome weekend! I know it’s Tuesday but I had such a crazy weekend that I needed Monday to recovery (oh, I think I’m getting old – LOL) plus I needed some extra special play time with my son Brandon who stayed at Grandmas all weekend long.

I had so much FUN hanging out and stamping with everyone at One Crazy Stamper on Saturday morning and at the Scrapping Turtle on Sunday afternoon! Thank you to everyone who came out to play and shop! I know I promised to share my little ‘secret’ that I revealed at the stores this weekend but the ‘secret’ item sold out so I’ll announce it next week once I get more in *grin* It’s worth the wait!!!!

Tomorrow is RELEASE DAY – YIPPEE!!! I’ve got lots of super CUTE stamps for you and I thought you might like one more little peeky before the big day…check out this adorable little wizard…

POOF!
