Stamp Camp gifts

Yesterday afternoon I had a stamp camp at Ellen A.'s house and like always we all just had a great time there. Her food is always just great and this time we even had the honor to meet her mother. She is 94 and was crocheting while we stamped! We visited with her from time to time to  see her awesome work!

And before I get busy this week, I thought I'd share the gifts I brought over that day.

I always have a door prize, and this time Norma was the winner of:

I used the Sizzix box #2 again, stamped it with "Itty Bitty Buds" and punched an opening with the wide oval punch, covered that with clear report cover and filled with easter eggs... Enjoy Norma!

Then for the hostess gift, I decorated this little swivel wood container:

And included 2 pens (DSP on inside of pen) and 10 Note Cards:

I just had too much fun making all those items. I told you earlier that I am addicted to my BigShot and all the great dies and texture plates. But little did we know just how bad my addiction is LOL. Anyway I've used the Tulipe die and cut it out from clear report covers to make a stecil and then sponged away with Really Rust CRAFT ink on the container and some of the note cards. I have to say it all turned out great - the sponged image looks so dimensional that you just have to touch it.

Now I just have to go back to my own container and do the front like on Ellen's. Mine so far only has the sides done, but that was my inspiration piece...

Have a great Monday!
