This week I am participating in the Global Design Project. And here is the sketch…..
And here is my creation…….I loved this set the first time I opened the Holiday Catalog!! It takes me back to my childhood with my Mother and Grandmother preparing for Christmas!! They made the Holidays truly special and full of tradition in our family. So here is my version of Christmas In The Making…. Isn't she pretty!! She will make a lovely Christmas card or Holiday thank you! And coloring and shading her was a breeze!! Much to my delight our alcohol based markers are back!! Remember the Blendabilities….well they are New and Improved and are called Stampin’ Blends! And they are AWESOME!!! We as demonstrators were able to purchase them early…but they will be available to everyone on November 1st!! Just in time for Christmas!! If you check closely I also colored in the Clear Faceted Gem with the Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends Marker to make a pretty red gem! They are permanent ink so it won’t rub off….LOVE IT!!
And don’t forget …our AWESOME Buy 3 Get on FREE Designer Paper Sale is still available until October 31st!

Welcome to the first Alaska Achievers Monthly Blog Hop!! Woohoo!! The month our theme is “Anything Goes” So you will be viewing a variety of different projects and ideas from some of the top Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators! You may just be starting the blog hop here at my blog (Renee Kohnke / Water City Stamping) or may have come from the person previous to me in the list. If you get off track at any time, the full lineup below will help you move along from blog to blog so you see all of the projects.
I will be featuring two different projects because I just couldn’t decide…..both are AWESOME gift giving ideas for the upcoming Holiday season. So the first project I would like to share with you comes from our Christmas Quilt Bundle. I LOVE quilts! I wish I could sew them….but the next best thing is make them from pretty paper!! So I made a Framed Christmas Quilt Sampler. Perfect for home décor and can be kept up year round. Here is a close up of the square.
Details / measurements The frame is 12'” x 12” with an opening of 4 3/4” x 4 3/4 “ MEASUREMENTS:
Garden Green Cardstock 5 1/2" x 5 1/2" Christmas Quilt DSP layer 4 1/4" x4 1/4" Gold Foil Paper 3 1/4 "x 3 1/4" Christmas Quilt DSP 4" x 4" Cut Quilt Star using Christmas Quilt Framelits from Cheery Cobbler Cardstock Add Felt Star Embellishment. Finish with Gold Gem
And here is another quick and easy gift…… my Snowman Tower of Cocoa!
Isn’t he just adorable?? He would be perfect for a quick teachers or coworkers gift along with a darling mug. Or tuck him in a box of Christmas goodies….that would be a wonderful homemade touch!!
He was created from 3 of our Tiny Treat Clear Plastic Boxes, attached with 4 Glue Dots on each corner! I added a glove with the fingers cut off to make a cap , tied with our Silver Tinsel Ribbon. And our striped ribbon makes a perfect scarf. Too Cute!! Thank you for joining us today - we are so happy that you are taking part in our blog hop.
