Here's another look at the Top Note box and Love Note I quickly displayed on CH Morning Live… I used the Big Shot with the Top Note Die to create the top and bottom of the box, then assembled a quick box to go in the middle. Yes, I'm working on a video tutorial for this…
The little love note is made of sahara sand, and the black strip with antique brads matches the box. The heart is from the Sale-a-Bration set, Polka Dot Punches – all of the stamps in the set coordinate with a punch… By embossing the image with gold it makes it almost like stud work… I know black may not be the most romantic colour, but wanted to show that all Valentine's Day items do not need to be red or pink, especially if designed for a male!!
OK so covered the gift box, love note, and now for the BONUS! All new e-newsletter subscribers will receive a special tutorial in their inbox! So what are you waiting for? Enter your email in the box at the top left! Please note that I do welcome subscribers other than Canadians, but I cannot sell product to those outside Canada, and any specials will pertain to Canadians only…(sorry, Stampin' Up! rules).

This is the handmade scarf I showed on CH Morning Live earlier today. It's a silk scarf, and we stamped on it with Stampin' Up! craft inks. The stamp set is Fifth Avenue Floral – I think it's one of my favourite new sets in the Spring-Summer Catalogue!
I am hoping to get more photos posted in the next little while, in the meantime, you can check out this page where I have a few photos of projects already up. I will be working on getting more photos and instructions up in the next while (to give you time to work on your own Valentine's gifts!!). In the meantime, you might consider attending my "Love"ly Little Gifts class next Thursday – contact me to register!

These are some examples of the handmade gifts I'll be showing on Friday morning, when I appear on CH Morning Live (around 8:10 am).
These were made with the Pillow Box die for the Big Shot. I stamped the hearts from the Stampin' Up stamp set Love You Much on Pink Pirouette cardstock for the one in the rear, and used some of the Candy Lane Designer Series Paper for the one in the front. I used the Heart to Heart punch to make a "window" so you could see the treats inside!
We'll also be doing a pillow box (complete with candy – got to get it out of my house so I don't eat it all!!) at the "Love"ly Little Gifts class on Thursday February 12th at 7 pm in Burlington. Contact me to reserve your spot!

If you've been looking for a way to combine your love of crafting with your own business – look no further than the Stampin' Up! starter kit!! Right now is a great time to start your stamping business – here's why! During Sale-a-Bration, you can choose an ADDITIONAL stamp set (a value up to $56.95), plus the kit is currently offered at 15% off the regular price!
Click on the starter kit pic on the right to see the list of items included within. You can customize your own kit – particularly handy if you've already got a number of Stampin' Up stamps or ink pads. EVERYTHING you need to start your business is included in the kit.
My role as an "upline" is to support the demonstrators who sign up with me, so I start by asking you to contact me with any questions you have about starting with Stampin' Up! You can also watch the videos online here. Once you've got all the information you need, I'll give you the password and you can head to my business site (www.yamstamps.stampinup.net) to sign up!!! I would love to have you as a member of the "Eh" team (my group of demonstrators) – we span BC and ON – and growing (or is that spreading?!)
