Stampin’ Up Demos in Central Iowa Christmas Party

Thursday evening I was blessed to host the Central Iowa Stampin’ Up! demos for our annual Christmas dinner and party.

Marcelyn Churchill, my sweet friend and team mate made Triangle Boxes which we filled with Steve’s fudge for a table gift.

Everyone made an ornament from the Be Merry Kit as a make and take. The ornaments were much bigger and cuter than they looked in the catalog. If you haven’t bought a kit yet, you should. You do need a hot glue gun to put them together.

Marcelyn also made these tea light Poinsettias in mini coffee cups.

Marcelyn made five strings of Paper Lights Garland. The colors are Tempting Turquoise, Elegant Eggplant, Emerald Envy and Real Red and Smoky Slate. The ribbon is the Quilted Christmas 1/4″ Ribbon from the Holiday catalog. Yes, Marcelyn was a busy elf. Not sure what I would do without her!

We also had a gift exchange. Everyone made beautiful gifts using current Stampin Up products and wrapped the gifts with Stampin Up products.

I made the Christmas Sampler for the gift exchange and also Splitcoast Stampers Creative Crew December design challenge.
