Fa La La Christmas

Hello Peeps !!!

Happy Sunday !!!

Here is another gift giving idea that will surely be appreciated for the rest of the year. I used Designer Series Papers to decorate these glass coasters. I also included DSP's that they can use for other occasions- Valentine's, Spring, Summer, Halloween and Thanksgiving. You just removed the DSP's and switched them out. The nice thing about the Stampin' Up Papers -they are double sided, so you get to pick out either side. Hope you like it.

Fa la la Christmas

Hello Peeps !!!

Happy Saturday !!!

I am finally getting a resolution to my e-mail problem. Thank you for all the advice and was able to get some help in resolving the issue.  I hope this thing never happens to somebody else. It was a total invasion of privacy just going through your e-mail and to top it all- was soliciting money using my name. I am not sure why someone would go thru this trouble and do such a thing. What kind of a world are we living in?
Anyway, we have a sock exchange at work and this is mine- I decorated the container and used the Snow Festival Designer Printed Tags and used the Stitched Stockings stamp set. Hope you like it.

RECIPE:
Stamps:  Stitched Stockings, Priority Mail
Paper: Gumball Green, Whisper White\
Ink: Real Red, Gumball Green
