I held a quarterly Team Meeting for my downline last Friday night. We had fun sharing ideas, talking about our businesses, and creating some samples for our businesses. One of my downline who lives locally was able to attend the meeting in person. Another, who lives too far away to attend, will be receiving notes and handouts from me, scans/pictures of the shared projects, and these completed make and take samples.
The White Christmas Set was the door prize for the evening and was won by Jeannette Pessaro. Since it was the door prize, we used my set to make this sample.

Next, we made a fun Christmas card to send to someone far away. We used the Smoky Slate Marker to ink up the top part of the Christmas ornaments from the Ornamental Pine Set and stamped them directly onto the vanilla layer. We then stamped the entire ornament in Island Indigo Ink onto a scrap of Pool Party and cut out just the ball portion with Paper Snips. This was then adhered to the vanilla layer under the stamped top portions. We also used the Island Indigo Marker to ink up only a portion of the sentiment from the Really Good Greetings Set.

For our next project, we made one of the cards from the Watercolor Winter Simply Created Kit. We used the Bright & Beautiful Set to stamp the sentiment.

Finally, we made a star box using the Many Merry Stars Photopolymer Set and Many Merry Stars Simply Created Kit from the Holiday Supplement. We used the technique I taught my Club Members at October Club Classes to make boxes with a distinct top and bottom piece. We just cut off the adhesive tabs on one side of the side strips we used. This does mean that you use more side strips per box than the kit intended, so you can't make quite as many boxes. However, you can use the leftover stars to make tags, ornaments, or embellishments for cards or scrapbook pages. You can find the awesome tutorial by an Australian Demo for making a two-sided star box by clicking here. Using the Many Merry Stars Simply Created Kit, you really only have to do steps 5 through 8 and you don't have to worry about adhesive!
