If you’re looking for some fun and festive projects, you’ll love what Stamptastic Friends have prepared for you. We have some amazing ideas for Christmas wrapping and gift giving that you can do in no time. You’ll find some brilliant ways to make your holidays sparkle and shine.
I came across these cute hand lotion tubes with holiday designs a few weeks ago. They seemed like a perfect little gift for myself or for some of my girlfriends. But I didn’t want to give them as they were. I wanted to add some flair to them. So, I made a simple box to put them in. I filled my box with hand lotion, but you can put anything you like in it. A sample of some of your favorite candy or cookies, a small piece of jewelry, a pair of Christmas socks…and more!
This is such a simple gift box to make, and I hope you’ll try it out.

For today’s blog hop, the team is showcasing Halloween cards that are humorous, eerie, and weird!
I enjoy making Halloween cards as long as they are not too frightening. No one wants to be scared by a card!
I have made 2 cards for you to enjoy and they are both amusing and goofy.
The Bag of Bones bundle includes a charming skeleton who loves to dance. He is very funny and adorable. You can dress him up with different accessories like hats, shoes, a cane, and some skeleton pet friends! My first card shows a skeleton with cool orange shoes dancing on a zig-zag background. I used Basic Borders dies and Designer Series Paper to make the background. I like to use purple, orange and green for Halloween colors. This skeleton makes me smile.
The second card has the some of same colors but a different design. The fold is fun and eye-catching.
I hope you will follow the blog hop and see more amazing cards…Don’t worry, there are no goblins here!

Welcome to the Stamping with Friends Blog Hop where we are sharing products from that are retiring from the Annual Catalog & the January – April Catalog. I am sharing a card I created for a young lady who is graduating from college. We live in Colorado where we have beautiful mountains so I thought Mountain Air and Majestic Mountains would be perfect.
To recreate this mountain range card, you will need:
Fresh Freesia 8 1/2″ x 5 ½” score at 4 ¼”
Basic White 4 ¾” x 3 ½” – cut 2 one for front & one for inside
5 pieces Basic White 2” x 4” for mountains
Scrap of Basic White for sentiment
Die cut 4 mountain range images and 1 of the image for the tree line.
Use a blending brush to add ink to the mountains. I layered them in this order: Fresh Freesia, Highland Heather, Orchid Oasis, & Starry Sky. The tree line is inked with Night of Navy.
Emboss the front Basic White piece with Into the Clouds embossing folder.
Layer mountains and tree line as shown. Turn over the front and trim off the extra edges.
Adhere to card front. Stamp sentiment. Punch or die cut. Punch or die cut a larger circle from In Color Orchid Oasis Glimmer Paper. Adhere to card front. Add inside piece.
Sprinkle Iridescent Basic Rhinestones as desired.
This card works in so many color combinations. I love when a stamp set is versatile like this one.

Gosh it has been a while since I posted! I get to where I think I have things under control and then life gets busy again! We are currently on vacation in the South of France and enjoying every minute. We both needed the time away as well as time to rest.
The Stamptastic Friends are sharing Home Décor items with you this month. I can’t wait to see what the group members have created. I love how our stamps, inks and papers can be turned into lovely accent pieces for our homes. It just takes a bit of creativity and the inspiration to give it a try.
Several months ago, I found a hexagon frame at the local dollar store. I bought it thinking sooner or later I could use it for a stamp project. I was thrilled when I saw the Queen Bee Bundle because I knew it would be perfect as a table decoration.
To create the background, I used black ink and randomly stamped the floral branch. Then I layered a hexagon of Daffodil Delight cardstock to create a smaller frame. Then I stamped and die cut the floral branch, Queen Bee and flowers. While the collage effect is sort of vintage, the bright colors give it a modern feel.
This little table sits in the corner of my craft room.
