Stamp Club Projects and Hanna's Tree
I love this tree from the Tis The Season set from Hanna Stamps. I wanted to make a fairly simple christmas card because I had so many to make and decided to use this tree - this card is gorgeous IRL - I added dazzling diamonds to the tulip puffy paint before I heated it with my heat gun - it's soooo sparkly! I added some red gemstones for ornaments. Wild Wasabi and Real Red is a great traditional christmas color combo.
I have stamp club today and made several different projects to share with everybody......we are making peppermint pattie sandwiches with the scallop circle punch, refrigerator pad magnets with jr. legal pads (jr. legal pads cut in 1/2 at my local kinko's) and post it note holders - these all make great handmade christmas gifts. These ideas are all a mixture of several items I have seen on SCS. The Ornament gift cards are soooo cute - see Sharon Johnson's blog - hers are amazing! I got my idea for the post-it note holders from my very talented blogging friend Angie Juda - this girl has some great SU! stuff let me tell ya! These holders are made with square coasters.
It is sooooo cold here today - we are in a winter storm warning and we are supposed to be having freezing rain later today - this is great stamping weather!

These are all adorable. I have a question, do you stamp on every page of the notepad? Does it take forever? It sure looks nice though... I rekon I'll have to stamp on every page of a notepad.

You are so creative! Love this tree card, you give me inspiration and a temptation to copy your ideas...at least the "idea" of them! Thanks for sharing on your blog!

Is there a charge for cutting your legal pads in half??? I had $4.00 worth of pads cut in half today and it cost me $5.75!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It took the printing shop all of about 2 minutes to do it!!!
