What is with those shoes?
Christmas shirt, every one at my husband’s office Christmas party loved them। I had such a blast. I’m thinking of lacing on a jingle bell onto the laces for a little more well, over the top!
As you can see I also altered a note pad, pen, candle and even the envelopes (which are stamped) so my guest can easily use the tray much like the ones found at a fine hotel. I really love the looks of the final project.
Kraft Card stock (stampin Up)
Basic Black card stock (stampin up)
Real Red card stock (stampin up)
Oval punch that measures 1 3/4″ approximate
Basic brown ink and a sponge
Google eyes
White pen
Sizzix corner design die, glue, sizzors basic stamping stuff.
1. Cut the base of the card out of the kraft paper using the top note die or spellbinders die allowing two pieces to overlap and keep them connected.
2. Sponge edges of card base and oval punch with basic brown ink.
3. Cut small label with the spellbinders die or the SU curly label punch. Then sponge the edges with basic brown ink.
4. Put ribbon around card as sown and attach the smaller label die on top.
5. To construct the reindeer:
a. Cut the antlers in half and pace behind head, the hair was made using the bo-ho blossoms punch which I trimmed off. draw a line from the bottom up about 1/4″ and attach red nose (circle punch that measures 1/2″) I embellished nose with a white pen. the face is embellished with a brown marker to make his ‘freckles’.
b. Attach google eyes with glue and attached assembled reindeer to the brown layer as shown. Then stamp “Merry Christmas” or other holiday greeting of your choice on top using basic brown ink. My “merry christmas” is from Hampton art stamps.
I found a neat video tutorial here for you die hard stampin up girls out there!

OK, I did a flip card for Craig. Hopefully he won’t get razzed too much over it. They are so much fun to make and send!/
The bottom pink card is for a friend, it will go with her Christmas present!
I heard from Craig yesterday, get this he called from Lackland, AFB and I had just finished cutting an onion. My eyes where so misty I could hardly see and the kid is talking 90 mph and wants me to write his addy down. I kept telling him “I know you only have a few minutes, but you’ve got to slow down enough for mom to write this down”. He was in good spirits and sounded really good on the phone!
Today is my 44th birthday. Hey I’m to young to be 44 (guess not).
My hubby took me out to my favorite chinese place for lunch and we went by our local (very small) Joanne’s store. They are getting ready to close and are starting to have some terrific clearance prices. My favorite was getting the 180 stacks of Christmas decorative paper for 50% off. I picked up some six packs of coasters for .20 cents each. Nice bargins!/
Sorry tonights post is so short, but I’m gonna watch some tube with the family and call it an early night!/
Stamp Happpy and be well!/
