Hello everyone.  Sorry for the delay in posting my projects but I suppose I am just techno-stupid.  I’m having difficulty adjusting everything to show up properly on a web page, so I’ll try and blog them here.                   To select your Holiday Boutique projects and register for a stamping session, click on my calendar and select your date!

Here’s another Holiday Boutique project, the Monogramed Journal with bookmark.  It’s a beautiful hand-stamped, chipboard journal designed by Stampin’ Up! co-founder Shelli Gardner.  She made this herself for our Leaders’ Summit and I thought it would be perfect for my Holiday Boutique. You choose the monogram!  The journal and bookmark cost $15.

Another item is this framed stamp art, Holiday Glitter Tree, the design adapted from an original idea of one of my downline, Wendy Lee.  This is a 5 x 7 framed piece.  We made this last year at my 3-D Christmas class and it was the favorite project.  The one you’ll be making will say "Noel" in the frame.  This is a gift that will fast become a family keepsake.  This framed art gift costs $20.

What a cute holiday candle jar!  This is a soy candle, available in red, green or white, but supplies are limited so choose this project soon!  These candles make great little gifts.  The candle jar measures about 3" x 3" and has a removable lid.  Best of all, when the candle burns down, you can reuse the jar with votives…the gift that keeps on giving!  And priced right at just $8.00!

My upcoming Holiday Boutique  in December is a new event for my customers! In the past few years, I’ve held my 3-D Christmas gifts class, where stampers have come and made 4 projects to gift or keep.  It was very successful, but I decided to change things up a bit this year.  Instead of making one of 4 items, you will be able to "shop" at my Holiday Boutique for the gift projects you wish make.  Want to make 4 holiday candles?  Then you order 4 candle packs and stamp and assemble them at the Holiday Boutique!  Here’s a peek at 2 of the Christmas Ornaments projects set you may purchase…aren’t they cute?!  What an inexpensive gift for a teacher or secret Santa gift.  And there’s more ornaments in this class to make! 

There will be 6 projects from which to choose and you’ll be able to order as many as you want to complete.  They run the gamut from ornament sets to tile coasters, a hand-stamped journal to  boxed greeting cards, framed Christmas art to decorative candles!  For the budget-conscious stamper, there’s no more affordable and heartfelt gift than a handmade one.

The Holiday Boutique runs for 4 days, December 11th, 12th,13th and 14th and you’ll have 2 sessions each day to choose from, to come and make your projects.  Keep checking my blog for more Holiday Boutique project sneek peeks.  In the upcoming weeks you can click on my calendar and register for the projects you wish to make.  I’ll be blogging sneek peeks regularly so keep checking back!
