October Club Projects

This month's Club had such a different atmosphere. We were missing half of the group so it felt really different. I picked some projects to do that work better with a smaller group and the ladies did a great job.

Our first project was a Christmas sour cream or twist favour:

This project was cased from the September Stampin' Success magazine. The container is wild wasabi embossed with the square lattice embossing folder. The ends are crimped - had to blow the dust off the crimper for this project! A strip of fabric from the Holly Berry Bouquet pack is tied in a knot around the favour. This is topped off with a real red button from the Holly Berry Bouquet designer buttons, some linen thread and a tag from the Tags til Christmas set. These favours would work for gift giving, party favours and place settings for dinner parties. Quick and easy and oh so cute!

Our second project uses my new favourite tool, the Simply Scored Scoring Tool:

These ornaments were cased from Laura Leuenberger and modified by me for Club. The rosette (medallion, lollie) uses paper from the Holly Berry Bouquet Specialty Designer Series Paper, shaker frames, red glimmer paper and mica flakes. These would make cute ornaments or decorations for gift wrapping.

Our last project was a quick and simple Christmas card:

This card was cased from Andrea Karadimos. Check out her blog:

I modified the card a little bit. The colours are always artichoke and cherry cobbler. The stocking is from the Stitched Stockings set and punched out with the stocking builder punch. The sentiment is from the retired set Peaceful Season - I just love that font!

My next post will be the projects from the Mommy & Me Halloween Class this last weekend. Thanks for stopping by!
