I hope you and your family had a wonderful Christmas! We had the McCullough Christmas in Davenport, the Olson Christmas in Kansas City and we celebrated just the six of us in Des Moines, attending the amazing Christmas Eve service at our church. We also had fun at the annual Knoff family game night!

Steve recently traded his car for a vehicle big enough for the six of us to travel together. We now know our kids liked it better when we had to take two vehicles everywhere. LOL! Abby, Keegan and I usually took one car and would sing Broadway musicals. I’m not sure what the older boys and Steve did in their car, but I do know everyone was happier with no on in the far back getting car sick. 🙂

Blessings,

Beth 🙂

Fudge Boxes

My husband, Steve, is a world famous fudge maker…OK maybe not world famous, but our friends and family really like his fudge. 🙂

Every year I make several styles of fudge boxes. Here’s one of this year’s boxes. The “Christmas” is embossed in copper to match the copper snowflakes in the DSP (Designer Series Paper.) The white box is a Mini pizza Box from Stampin’ Up! You can purchase them from my online store at the bottom of this post.

This week’s challenge at Use Your Stuff Challenge Blog is Christmas/Holidays. Whatever you’ve made for Christmas this year would qualify. Head over to the challenge and post your picture. Email me at Beth@StampingMom.com if you need help entering. I’d love to help you!

Marcelyn got into the act this year by making some unique boxes to contain Steve’s fudge. Marcelyn Churchill is my friend, Stamping Joy team member, fellow BSFer (Bible Study Fellowship) and prolific crafter. She doesn’t have a blog, so I share some of her creations on most Mondays. Here’s a few of the fudge cups Marcelyn made for our Stamping Joy Christmas party. Every year they joke about not wanting to share the fudge with their husbands, so this year we decided to use these cute coffee cups and pour the fudge directly into the cup for a single serving to eat with a spoon! Please email me if you would like to sign up to get a discount from Stampin Up and be part of our Stamping Joy team- Beth@StampingMom.com

Marcelyn made these cute boxes for the Central Iowa Demos Christmas party that I hosted at my house.

When you pull on the ribbon, the fudge came out of one side and Merry Christmas popped out on the other side.

I know I showed you before, but in case you missed it, here’s what they looked like on the table.

Here’s a close up picture of the cute Sprig Punch tree Marcelyn made.

If you have any questions about anything Marcleyn made, please contact Marcelyn directly at marcelynchurchill@msn.com

Here’s the fudge boxes I made last year for my Stamping Joy team. These might be the favorite boxes I’ve made.

Here’s many of the boxes I’ve made the last couple years.
