If I could spend a day with another Demonstrator I think on the top of my list would be Kimberly Van Diepen because she comes up with the awesomest stuff. I have my Simply Scored Scoring Tool class this weekend, they are making a card, a box, and an ornament, and I cased these from Kimberly (thanks Kimberly). Once I started I could not stop making them. I will totally put the Halloween ones up on my window frame.
This one I did on my own, but really totally inspired by Kimberly. I love these reindeer. Remember this post from a few years back?

Here is the ornament the girls will do in class, or these could be gift tags too, wouldn't you love to get a present with one of these attached to it?
I love the silver glitter paper, and the Lolly's or the Yoyo's or whatever they are called they are the little bumpy round decoration, they are totally addictive and a breeze to make with the new Simpy Scored.

As I type this Phantom of the Opera is on tv, and I love that movie, and I don't even need to be watching it to know what is going on. I always get chills when it goes from black and white to color when they raise the chandelier. Right now Minnie Driver is screaming in her accent.
I have a couple stamp sets up for grabs this month. When you place an order in my online store in the month of October you will get a chance to win one, you will get a ticket for each order you place. I will pick one name and that person will have their choice of one of the sets and then I will pull another name and they will get the remaining set. Fun eh? Your order can be any amount to get a ticket for the set but remember for my Country Dozen Rewards the order has to be $40.00 before tax and shipping, just keep that in mind.
Here are the sets:
Well I think I might whip up a few more tags, and hey wouldn't valentine ones be so cute? Ok I can't get ahead of myself…ha!
Have an awesome Wednesday, and thanks for stopping in.
Those are awesome Di!!! They are like potato chips, you can't just make one! What an awesome idea for gift tags!
Those look fun – do you have directions for making those bumpy circle things?
Luv ya

OK I love all of these except for the rat. I still think the rat one is disgusting. Roscoe would like it but mommy sure doesn't. Thanks for the usual inspiration. Licks from Roscoe and hugs from me.

i'm glad u mentioned that these would make great gift ornaments cause i couldn't figure out what to do them otherwise,and tree ornaments isn't an options cause our poor tree is already overloaded every year, but now i'm all stoked to make some of these! yay!
