January!.....it's not that far away!!!

I have two new classes on the calendar at Scraps of Love.

My first is a shaker card class on Monday 12th January 10:30 - 1:30.

5 cards all shakers! These were fun to create and I think they turned out really cute!

Next, a clear card class. Again 5 cards that all start off with a clear card stock base.

These always turn out cute and they're so easy!!! Monday 26th January 10:30 - 1:30 for this one. Call the store to sign up for your class spot or kit.

The Shakers...

and the Clear ones....

.....a clean, cute start to the New Year!!!

Oops!!!

I forgot to post these pictures on my blog, I posted them on my Face Book

page and then completely forgot about my blog....shame on me!!!

Both sets of cards were classes I taught during December. If you haven't already 

done so head over to Face Book and 'like' my page: Sticky Bits of Paper

I tend to post on there first, keep a look out I have samples for January classes

to post over the next few days!....January! Another year already?....Where did this one go?!?! 

Firstly this quick box and 6 cards, I did them as Thank You but you could turn them into any occasion you choose....

 

And then an Every Day selection...

Make & Take Time.....

This little happy is my upcoming make & take.

Join me at Scraps of Love on Wednesday 17th from 10:30 till 12:30

while supplies last, is it an ornament? Is it a gift tag? You decide!

I just know that I'll be keeping one for myself!

Mmmm....smells lovely around here!

I told you I had something else to show you, well here it is....

My other 'passion'....candle making.

I've been making these little happies for about 10 years now off and on,

I used to only wholesale them into stores, for the last few

years paper crafting took over a little bit....well a lot really! Soooo this batch got made for The Hubby to give as gifts and I remembered just how much fun I had making them. I enjoyed making them so much I'm considering starting my candle business back up.....I'll keep you posted!

What happened to November?!?!

Oh my! My poor blog has been a little neglected of late!

November was a super busy month for classes, I had four...yes 4 going on!

Lots of prep, lots and lots of bits of paper...everywhere!

To start with I had a mini accordion album, How to build a Snowman in 5 easy steps, a cute little rhyme and places to put pictures or gift cards.

This is a condensed picture of the album, for larger pictures go to my post back in September 

and you'll get a better view.

Then came my Eight Little Reindeer mini album, a lovely rhyme about santa's reindeer, this album had pocket pages with tags in them for all your holiday photos. 

After this came my christmas card class four fun cards and a 'slider box' card.

   

  

Last but by no means least was my Santa's  Magic Key keepsake, a little rhyme and key to help santa get through the door instead of going down the chimney, because you know not all of us have a chimney!

So that was my November. Busy and so much fun!.....I'll be back tomorrow to show you what else I got to making in November, I'd tell you now but I think this post is quite long enough!!!...are you still awake?!?!?

 

A Little Happy

Got to stamp and color these little chappies this morning, I just LOVE them!

Turned my favorite coffee mug die cut into both a gift card holder and cocoa sachet holder....two

happies in one.....can't be bad!!!...

Oh Happy Day!

New stamps and a mini album

It seems such a long time since I posted on my blog! I've been prepping and teaching classes and of course letting my craft brain cell go to work to come up with some cute....well I think they are....Christmas projects, more on those later!

I ordered some new release stamps, and a couple of older ones from Stamping Bella and they arrived today!....

I can't wait to get these inked up!!! Before I can get to that I had some class prep to do, and a little mini album I needed to put some finishing touches to. Finally finished and this is for a Little Sweetie who is turning 1. It has loads of space for those special pics we take a gazillion of!....

Off to finish a little more prep, then it's break out the ink and let's get those beauties stamped!!!
