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

  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

Wedding Affaire Lamp Shade

For our big Wedding Affaire on Cuttlebug Challenge Blogspot   I chose to make Crystal Goblet Lamp Shades. I first made the pattern in the shape and length that I want the shade to be. I used velumn to for the shade it self. To hold the ends of the shade together I used Tear-ific tape. It really holds well. Using the heart Cuttlebug Folder I dry embossed the heart in the middle of the shade. I made the cross hatch with using the pergamano technique. The K is cut out of Core'dinations gemstone with the Jasmine cartridge. I sanded the K to give it a softer look. The cute little butterflies are cut out of the Core'dinations pearls paper. I used the MS Pop Up Butterfly punch. They are the "cast off" pieces which left me a wonderful border for latter use. (LOL) I found this wonderful lace with pearls weaved through it at Joann's in the material section. Using the Tear-ific tape I laid it all a long the bottom of the shade then placed the lace over tape. I then cut the

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.
