stuffed stockings

Hi there,

today is christmas party in preschool and usually the day for exchanging gift. And this year I found the template for this cute stockings on this blog . Because I decided to give each teacher a gift card from Barnes & Nobles I created this stockings and sneaked the card inside. They were made so easily - it took me just 45 minutes to finish all 4. How cool!!!

And due to the fact that I went a little overboard with stocking up on new paper I decided to use some treasures from SU last year's collection. I think I will make myself some of those stocking too just to hang them on our fireplace ;-)

Paper is Frosty Days or Ski Slope (forgot which one), ribbon is old olive SU, stamp "You light up my life" from Sweet and Sassy, and I used choc chip marker for tracing and writing. That's all!!

Thanks for popping in today - Wish y'all a wonderful Thursday - just one more day until the weekend ..... :-))

Hugs Tanja

Welcome-present

Happy Monday

Wow, the Verve-blog-hop was a Wowzer!!! Did you see that I got 110 comments? Awesome - thank you very much to everybody who visited me over here.

Today I'd like to share a project that I made for hubby's new boss and his wife. They came to the US by July 15th when we were still in Germany for vacation. So we still "owe" them a little something as a welcome present.

I first made this card with my new rich razzleberry cardstock and the new rub-ons I wanted to try forever .... It is simple but looks great in addition to this purse.

My SiL made one of those for my inlaws' Anniversary and I liked how it turned out. So I got the template which she found on this blog and just went ahead.

Watcha think? Do you like it???

Thanks for checking in and have a good day

Hugs Tanja
