My 2010 Christmas card 

Secret Santa - Part II

Here's Christi, the wonderful lady that was my Secret Santa.

Here are the gifts she gave me at the party...

She took an ice cream container, decorated it, then filled it with goodies.  Looks like she enjoys making 3x3 cards too. :)  I'm definitely going to be using her idea for "wrapping" a candy bar.  I love it! 

She also gave me this wonderful smelling candle.

~Here are just a few of the gifts she gave me over the last month~

This is a cute way to give candy.  Guess I should have taken the picture before I ate it all!

Love the cute notebook purse!

Hmm...am I really a Grinch? 

...in need of Grinch pills!

I guess not! :)

Christi~ Thanks so much for all the wonderful gifts and the time you put into each one. :)

Secret Santa - Part I

I decided to be a part of Secret Santa, and I'm glad I did!  I picked Rachel Verbrugge and had a great time making and buying gifts for her.



Here's a gift card holder I made for her.  It was one of our challenges from Glenda for this month.  I figured why not include it in with the Secret Santa reveal. :)

I'm excited to finally be able to post some of the things I made for her!  Didn't want to let her know who I was (for sure) until after the reveal. ;)  I had a lot of fun making everything.

I bought a gift bag and decided to make a 3x3 card to match it. 

 I also made a few gift tags that I've been wanting to try, but never did until now.

Very easy gift tags to make!

I really got hooked on 3x3 cards when I did a card exchange a couple of months ago.  These cards are one of the gifts I gave Rachel in her reveal present.  

 I loved how these turned out, but didn't want all the cards to be the same.  I decided to reverse the colors for a little variety.  I made her gift card holder to match these. :)

Yup, I definitely had a fun time with all of this.  Glad I could be your Secret Santa, Rachel!

Red Hot Stampers

I figured I'd better get busy and do a little posting again...

What a blast we had at the Christmas party!  Thanks Glenda for a great time!  You really spoiled us with gifts and prizes. :)  Thanks ladies for all the delicious food too. 

I didn't get pictures of Stamptionary (I guess that's our version of Pictionary) or Bingo, but I did get one of the name game.  I missed one name...darn!  Sorry, Judy...I'll remember your name from now on though!

Winter Scrapbook Pages

Here's another challenge from my upline Glenda....scrapbooking.  I went with 6x6...less work! ;)  I really like how it turned out though.  I got my inspiration for these from Jodie Peterson.
