Gifts I made for Christmas

Sorry I have been MIA for a few weeks, I promise to get back to posting after the new year.

I just wanted to post a few things that I made this week.  I made a video of all the pictures that I had taken from Dec. of last year to Nov. of this year.  I put it to Christmas Music for my Mom and Roger's Mom for Christmas.  Get this it's over 30 minutes long.  I think I might take to many pictures.  LOL

This next picture was something I made for someone on my Christmas list.   I sure hope she likes it.  I thought it would be something nice to post notes on.  The snow flakes are magnetic and so is the Snow Wishes.  I think I might even make one of these for my self.

 For both these projects I used Kristal's Stamp Set Winter Wishes.

My Gingerbread Simply Sunday Challenge Ornament.

 Today is another fun Simply Sunday challenge over at Getting Cricky .  For this challenge we needed to create a holiday decoration so I thought I would make this ornament, I just love gingerbread people.   I also used my PK stamps again.   

I used Kristal's Stamp set Winter Wishes.   If you have not ordered any of her stamps you really need to try them out.  I love them!

Let it Snow Card!

Have I told anyone that my two favorite colors are Pink and Brown, so for this card I thought I would make a snowman with these colors.  I think it turned out nice, but I have one problem.  I really don't want to give it away.  LOL   I love those PK faces. 

 For my project, I used Kristal's Winter Wishes set

Simply Sunday Challenge: Give Thanks

 First I would like to say that I am back and feeling much better, I am so sorry I was MIA for so long.  I was very sick and then had to go away for work.  I am so excited to get back to crafting again.  I hope you enjoy my project for today.  I want to take the time to Thank all of you for following me and to tell you that I appreciate you so very much.  I hope you all have a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving.  

Today is another fun Simply Sunday challenge over at Getting Cricky .  For this challenge we needed to create a project reflecting something we are thankful for.  So I thought for this challenge I would make this frame.  These are my 3 E's.  (Emily, Ethan, and Elana)  God has blessed me with such a wonderful family.  I'm going to take this and put it on my desk at work.  The stamp set that I used is one of my favorite Fall-O-Ween, if you don't have this set you really need to get it.  I promise you will love it.

Simply Sunday Challenge: You're Just Tea-iffic Card!

Today is another fun Simply Sunday challenge over at Getting Cricky .  I thought for this challenge that I would make a Tea-iffic card.  I used my Gypsy and Cricut to cut out the shapes for the card.  I also used my new set of  PK stamps (Snowmany Face Assortment).     For this card I used Kristal's "Coffee &  Tea For You & Me" set... 

benefits Wayside House for Women

You will find that this set is such a fun set!

Hope you have a great day, thanks for stopping by.

 

Kristal's Newest Stamp Sets ---- Mermaid Card!

 For this card I used both the Pirate Tales & Fish Scales and Pirate Party sets.

Each of Kristal's stamp sets benefit charity. At least $1 per stamp set goes to benefit the charity noted on the stamp set package. Kristal is donating to the following charities: Cancer Angels, Storefront Shelter for Homeless Children, Intrepid & Fallen Heroes, E. Glaser Pediatric AIDS  Foundation, Doorways Shelter for Women & Children (Domestic Violence), Wayside House for Women, Camp Good Days & Special Times, Adopt a Classroom, and Autism Research Institute. Kristal will donate $1 for every stamp set sold, retail or wholesale to the charity noted; and over time believes this will add up to some wonderful miracles for these special people. So you can feel good that each time you purchase a K Andrew Designs art stamp set, someone around the country is receiving some good help!

K Andrew's stamps are all made and assembled here in the USA, which is very important to Kristal. This ensures all product materials are safe and that jobs are being provided and maintained here in America.  You can learn even more about Kristal's stamps (and pick some up for yourself) by visiting her online store: K Andrew Designs:
