NAUGHTY OR NICE? HOLIDAY CARD AND GIFT EXCHANGE FEATURING HSIAO-HUI LIN

Hsiao-hui Lin is very creative and who knew she was funny also?  Well, for Hsiao-hui's card, she did a take on who is on Santa's Naughty and Nice List.  For our card exchange, it was suggested that we use My Digital Studio (MDS) to make our cards.  Most of the demonstrators used it in some form, either on a card or a gift.  A few did not.  For those who didn't do MDS, they are supposed to go on the naughty list...hmmm hmmm!!!  Too funny. Notice that I have not checked anyone off.  I'm putting everyone on the NICE list regardless because I know that all of the demonstrators want SU! for Christmas and I want everyone to get all that is on their list!
Hsiao-hui used MDS on her card which is layered on real red card stock that she embossed with the Big Shot and the SU! square lattice embossing folder.  Hsiao-hui stamped her envelope and also stamped the inside of her card.  Click on the photo above to read the card a little easier.
Hsiao-hui used the Top Note die for the inside white card stock piece that she stamped the sentiment on and on which she hand signed.

Here's Hsiao-hui's home made gifts.  Hsiao-hui made her gift specifically for Lisa Chatterjee.  Lisa was sick the night of the exchange but Hsiao-hui gave us a sneak peek.

This first gift was completely hand made except for the clear acrylic frame.  Everything inside was hand colored or stamped or made using My Digital Studio.
I wish you could see this gift up close.  It really sparkles.  This is really an amazing project.

As if that wasn't enough, Hsiao-hui also made Lisa this metal magnet countdown to Christmas calendar.  I think she got the idea from one of Jan Wakeland's meetings.  We saw a very similar project at Jan's home.  As you countdown to Christmas you can either remove the magnets for you can have no magnets on the project and add them as you go along.  Really cool.  Lisa is going to love both of these.
