Christmas Around The Clock


For my Challenge I decided to make a can of Santa Soup. You use a 15 oz can that has a pull top lid. Cut off the lid using a “safe-top” can opener, or you can just use a can of soup. Wrap you design around the can and tape it on. I made the tag with red and green cardstock, running them through the Cuttlebug with the swiss dot folder. Topping it off with ribbon and seasonal stickers.


Here’s the poem by Pam Ridenour:
Santa’s been so busy, he’s had no time to eat.

And Mrs. Claus got worried, so she made a special treat.

She took his favorite things, and put them in a pot.

She added magic elf dust, and heated it ‘til hot.

Santa loved it so much, he finished the whole pan.

So Mrs. Claus made more, and put it in this can.

Since Santa thought it was yummy, she thought that you might too.

So she asked dear old sweet Santa, to leave a can for you!

The tag has on it:
Contents
2 pkg Hot Chocolate
2 Peppermint Sticks
4 Hershey Kisses
Marshmallows
YOUR CHALLENGE:

  1. Wanda I love your Santa soup! I am not clear about the can being opened. Do you put the hot chochlate etc., in the can and just list them as ingredients on the tag? I can just see my Grandbabies on Christmas morning. If you get this and can answer it for me please send the reply to france_diane@hotmail.com Thank you very much you are a very talented lady.

Wow!  Hello everyone.  I know it's been a very long time since I posted.  I've had to deal with some personal issues and couldn't dedicate my time to crafting.  But, I'm back!  I have been doing some really fun activities and having lots of fun with Betty from Bettybrett.blogspot.com .  She has amazing Friday try days. Her crops are the greatest.  I'm looking forward to the November one. It is called Candy Cane Lane. I'm even going to teach a class of my own in paper piecing. This class will be the 23rd of November.  More details on this to follow.    I've so missed crafting and I've missed my followers.  I always said " I love my computer because my friends are in it".  LOL  I will be posting pictures soon.  I just need to get this computer set up to do it with. Huggles,  Wanda

Cuttlebug Challenge #48

Cuttlebug Challenge is having a month long celebration for their 1 year anniversay. This weeks challenge was a gift bag and card. For my gift bag I used a clipart from Daisie Company. I burnt around the edges to make it look old. (Little hint here. Don't do it in your kitchen even though there is water so if it get out of hand. It does set off the fire alarm. OOPS LOL ) Then I made the tag with my favorite folder for this project the Houndstooth. Tied it on with my twine to keep it in the same theme. My card I used Dustin Pike Digi-art Colored it with Bic pens and Gel pens. The inside of the card I used Clip art from Daisie Company and used the houndstooth folder again to distress the scroll.
I don't have a blog spot so I'm using my Mom's. I need to do a service project to finish my Civics' class.  The first idea didn't work because I was going to clean the boat ramp at our park that is close to my home.  But because of all the rain it was too dangerous to complete it.  So I choose to clean a church building.  It turned out to be great!  I first walked around and figured out what needed to be done.  Then I helped organized my friends to get everything covered.  We all worked very hard.  My little brother came with us and he fell asleep on some chairs.  Will he fell off and cracked his chin opened.  We had to take him to the urgent care and have it put back together.  I had to clean up the pool of blood.  But it turned out great and gave me a good feeling knowing I was a part of making the building shine.
