December Kit of the Month Sneaks
Wow! Two posts in one day!
Merry Christmas Door Hanging:
I have been a busy bee, churning out the projects while I have precious time to do them. I'm afraid I'll have to spend tomorrow cleaning, however. The family will be here for Thanksgiving on Thursday.
Oh, well, enough small talk! I wanted to show you a few projects I've come up with using the December Goodies Kit. I'm telling you, since the moment that kit arrived on my doorstep, I couldn't wait to crack into it.
Have a look!
Have a look!
Merry Christmas Door Hanging:
Next up is a Christmas Organizer - sure to come in handy this holiday season. I got this idea at http://www.symmetry.typepad.com/. She sells the inserts, but I found them just as easy to make myself. Or you can download and print them from http://www.organizedchristmas.com/.
And, finally, a set of Christmas ornaments. These are made from our acrylic mini scallop tag album. I just took it apart and decorated each piece as an ornament. I stamped some of them with a snowflake image in white Stazon ink. Fun!
Hope you like what you see!
November Goodies Kit Projects
Okay, so it feels a little bit like going back in time to post Fall projects when I've already posted about Christmas products. But I finally got to actually PLAY with one of my kits, and I just really wanted to share!
This is called a pull-out book. I used a tutorial from Splitcoaststampers.com to make it. FYI, if I were to do it again, I would resize the cover to be 6" and the inserts to 4." Still, I love the colors, and love how it turned out. I am going to let my family write on the tags the things they are thankful for this year.
I used the Maya Road tag book to make a little recipe booklet. I am going to cut 3 x 5 index cards into the shape of the tags and add the recipes between the chipboard dividers.
Then I created a card and a layout. And would you believe? I still have one whole sheet of patterned paper left for a layout of Adam visiting the pumpkin patch when he was in Kinder. Now if I can only find that darn picture....
Hope you enjoy!

Scrap Pink News and Pictures
It's been a whole week since Scrap Pink...sorry I am just now posting.
I shared with the ladies in attendance that we were able to raise $450 for the Susan G. Komen for the Cure Foundation!!! Is that awesome, or what?
Many thanks go to the Coca-Cola Bottling Company for their donation of drinks for the crop, and to Wal-Mart for their donation of food. Be sure to show them your appreciation for getting involved.
I think a great time was had by all, and I am eager to do it again next year. In fact, I'm not sure I want to wait a whole year. Another cause that has always been close to my heart is St. Jude's Children's Hospital. I'd really like to do another one of these events to raise money to donate to them. Stay tuned for more info on that.
I also thought I'd share a few pictures of our day:
Didn't we look pretty in pink? If you took pictures, I'd love for you to share. Just email me at kwitekreative@aol.com
