12 days of Christmas {projects} - a winner!!

Unfortunately I have not heard from my first winner and there was no way to get a hold of her because I didn't have any information with the comment she left, so I drew another winner for my 12 Days of Christmas {Projects} Giveaway!

I printed out each person's name who left a comment on this post (thank you!) and had my daughter pull one out of the box!

The new winner is...


This just so happens to be my mom, but in all fairness I TRIPLE PROMISE I did not rig the giveaway for her to win...and my daughter did not peek when she pulled the name out of the box. I must admit she was super excited to see her Grammy's name, though!

I just wanted to thank EACH AND EVERY ONE of you for taking the time to leave comments on not only the giveaway post, but also on my other posts as well. I find joy in reading these comments and it encourages me to know that I have readers who are inspired by my work that I love! I know how busy life gets and it's tough to fit in time to leave comments while jumping from blog to blog. There is so much inspiration out there!! Thank you again and may the remainder of your Christmas season be filled with joy, happiness, love, laughter...and a little stamping, too!

congrats all around

Did you miss me yet?? I'm actually on vacation with the family right now, but the next couple of days have a little more "downtime" in them, so I thought I'd come on here really quick to offer my CONGRATS to the lucky winner of my Craft Project Central giveaway!! Never mind that I was supposed to announce this 10 days ago?! (Sorry, I had Disneyland on the brain!) I had 16 comments on my CPC September project debut and using random.org lucky commenter #10 was chosen...

Array of Sunshine Box & Note Cards

As a special thank you, Craft Project Central has TWO bonus projects for us this month!! The first bonus project just so happens to be mine!! *wink* The second bonus project was created by Laurie at Laurie's Stampin' Spot. Wouldn't this cute little gift box with coordinating cards make a wonderful gift?! And once all the cards are used, it is the perfect holder for post-it notes! This would also be a great project for a class or for stamp club!

Teacher's Desk with Notepad & Candy

It's back to school time!! And how adorable is this next project? It is a school teacher's desk with mini post it notes on the top! It even comes with a handy little pencil to jot down notes. And, when you pull out the drawers...guess what's inside? Chocolate! You could also change up the theme and give it to your co-worker, filling the drawers with tiny office supplies like rubberbands, paperclips, push pins, etc. This project was designed and created by Chris at Creations by Chris.

Surprise Pull-Out Baby Card & Gift Box

Check out this fun baby gift box for a sweet precious one! If you don't need a gift for a baby, just change up the colors and theme, and you'll have the perfect gift holder for a birthday, anniversary, or even Christmas gift! This quick and easy gift box would also make a great stamp club project! This super sweet project was created by Naoko at Stampage.

Thank you again to everyone who entered to win! Next month, I will be giving away a free month for September at Craft Project Central because I will be guest designing again! Yippeee!

more Craft Project Central projects...and some winners!

Last week was a busy week for me! I had a 3 for $6 card night on Tuesday. The next day, the family and I headed up North a couple of hours and took a trip to Great Wolf Lodge, a hotel with a HUGE water park. It was such a blast!! We got back on Thursday night and I went straight to work preparing for my Farewell Fiesta Stampin' Event on Friday night. Then came a busy Saturday and even busier Sunday with Father's Day! I've taken the last few days to just unwind and get things done around the house and play with the kids a little (in the SUN - yes, we finally got sun on Tuesday!). Which means over the last few days not a lot of stamping has been done!

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *

I do, however, have a couple more projects to share with you from Craft Project Central. Don't forget that every month you subscribe to for only $10, you are receiving 10 full tutorials with pictures, step by step instructions, and a complete supply list. Each of these projects are created with Stampin' Up! only products, which would be great for a stamp camp or club.

Here is part two of the Fabulous Florets Wedding Ensemble (click here for part one). This project includes instructions and templates for the table tent, menu card, place card, favor box, and thank you card! This great project can easily be altered for other party themes like birthdays, showers, Thanksgiving, etc.!

Here is a cute little "planting party" birthday invitation and favor box. This is a cute idea for a boy (or girls) birthday party. It would also be cute for a garden party or as a gift for someone who loves gardening! Project includes instructions and templates for the invitation and favor!

And the winner is...
