Creation on the go!!!

I absolutely love these block projects we did at the last Stampin' up Hostess Group. They are so much fun to make. I wanted to give my in-laws a thank you for hosting us this past week but I was on the opposite site of the country. I did this block on the go with glitter foam balls inside instead of lights. The saying is out of vinyl and there are a bunch of epoxy snowflakes on the inside and outside that dont show the best in this picture. I have so many more ideas!!!

I actually HAVE been busy!!!




Ok these are the glass blocks you can get at the craft store with a hole drilled in the bottom of them I bought my blocks with from Home Depot and had my sweet husband drill holes in them for my class. It was hard to get a picture of the bow and block because when the block is lit the flash won't work (im still working on the photo techniques :) We used Stampin' Up Jolly Holidays and StazOn Black ink for the design. The backround is done with Jesso found in the acrylic paint aisle since it dries pretty fast. We sponged on the white to give it the snow effect and then stamped when it was dry. We used the regular Stampin Up ink pads to color in the images. I used a since night light that is used at Christmas for the little houses to light up the block. Many of the club members used a small string of Christmas lights and fed them into the hole. We used thick wire ribbon to tie the top. I am thinking about some great teachers gifts!!!
