it’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas…

Last weekend, Oct. 11 and 12, was the monthly Creative Class at Stamp-n-Storage. Please note the dates: OCTOBER 11 AND 12. We were making Christmas cards. AND IT SNOWED!!! Seriously, IT’S THE MIDDLE OF OCTOBER!! Now, I appreciate the ambiance it gave for our class…but, I could have done with just playing Christmas music (which I did.)

Here are the cards we made at the class:

Each design is great for mass producing. I think the one with the red and black buffalo plaid star is my favorite. I love the rustic feel.

monogram decor

September 16, 2019 By Mary Haugen

We had a great time at Stamp-n-Storage’s September Creative Class that was held during the annual Warehouse Sale. We made a fun monogrammed home decor piece and a coordinating card.

We started with a 11.5″x11.5″ piece of sanded wood that we painted with white chalk paint. Tore the edges of a piece of patterned paper and added it to the wood with Mod Podge. The leaves are wrapped with twine around an embroidery hoop which was hot glued to the base along with the painted monogram letter. (I made this for my daughter which is why it has an ‘L’)

We then took inspiration from elements of this project to create a card.

Inspiration is all around us! Where do you draw inspiration from?

Last weekend was the Grand Opening of the new Stamp-n-Storage retail store! It was quite a whirlwind, but a lot of fun. We had a balloon arch, official ribbon cutting, a make & take, food and a LOT of people. We are so excited for this new space!
