Do you like to have a calendar on hand, or like to create little decor items? If so this fun little Acrylic Desk Calendar might be just want you’d like. I created this little decor item for my Team Shoe Box Swap last month and it got buried under some other projects so I didn’t get to share it with you earlier. But good news, here it is today.
I just fell in love with the Meandering Meadow Designer Series Paper that is part of our Online Exclusive selection as it is filled with wonderful landscapes and rich color. This paper was painted by one of our Stampin’ Up! Artisans on small canvases and then made in to designer series paper. So you’ll have wonderful little work of arts when you get this paper!
I found the Acrylic frame at my local dollar store and so couldn’t wait to create with it. Want to see how I made it, so you can make one too?
And if you love the project you may just want to get the stamp set too. It’s part of our carry over list and can be found in my Online Store. I just love the font used in this set that I used for this project and think it’s a great set for those cards we need to make too as it covers all kinds of occasions.
Enjoy! Stay dry and keep warm, it’s going to a crazy kind of weather weekend.
Yesterday I had my Annual Holiday Luncheon with my Team and I couldn’t resist sharing this fun home décor item that I made using the Eden’s Garden Collection 160849. When I saw the flyer with the lovely wreath I knew I wanted to make one too. The Ever Eden Specialty Designer Series Paper (159996) and Garden Gems(159277) are simply breath taking! So I stocked up so I can make tons of these and coordinating projects for gifts.
Here is my take on this lovely little gift, perfect for holiday gift giving.
I really like the 3D effect that this wreath has as I removed the glass from from frame and used tons of Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals between the layers.
Want to see how I made mine? Here is a Video Tutorial for you.

This past weekend I gathered with my Team, The Blue Mountain Stampers for a special biannual event. This event allows us to gather and celebrate everyone’s accomplishments over the last 6 months. We have a special project, along with prizes, and appetizers. So today I thought I’d share our project that we made.
This project was a lot of fun to make and everyone’s turned out differently since they could decide on which patterns they wanted to use. Here is mine.
I really love the colors and patterns of the Gilded Autumn Suite of Products and so I couldn’t resist making a home décor item with them. I also really love the way the little swirls of copper ribbon finish off this project. They are so easy to make – I bet you are wondering how I made them too!
You’ll need a wooden skewer or dowel along with your heat tool and Heavy Spray Starch. Yep, that’s it! You’ll also need a bit of patience as you make them since it does require some dry time tho. I’m not sure how they would hold up outside, but since I’m planning on using this project inside my home I wasn’t worried about our heavy Georgia humidity of late.
Want to see how we made them? Here is a video for you.

I’ve also included a link for the pumpkins and PDF pattern on this Tutorial for you.
Want to make some of these too? Here is the information on the wooded pumpkins for you that I found on Amazon along with a PDF pattern for this pumpkin.
I really love these gatherings we have a lot of fun together and it’s a great time to share what’s been happening in our lives, and relax too. Here are a couple of pictures for you of some of the finished projects.

I’ve got some fun last minute Halloween projects that I made and want to share with you today. This first one is a home décor item that I made using our Witches’ Brew Designer Washi Tape.
Don’t you love these fake pumpkins that have available the last few years? I’ve done all kinds of things with them, including having the kids carve a pumpkin that will last forever. For this project I simply cut off the top, added the Witches’ Brew Designer Washi Tape (132156) in a pattern that made me happy, placed a piece of green foam for flowers and added the mums and leaves. Quick and easy-peasy.
This second project includes some real pumpkins that Larry brought home to sit on my kitchen counter for a pop of fall color.
Sorry about the photos – it’s another rainy day here in North Georgia which can make taking pictures tricky.
I love making little treats for family and friends
so here is a great little project that holds a pack of gum.
Halloween Candy Bar Slider – surprise!
And last but not least I wanted to share a picture that my daughter sent me when she found her little Halloween Candy Bar Slider tucked into her dresser drawer at college – the timing was perfect since they had just had a dorm Halloween event where she dressed up as I Dream of Jeannie and passed out candy. (Seriously – thus the weird eye make up.) She’s such a hoot!
