MORE STAMPIN SISTAH'S GIFT EXCHANGE PHOTOS

Here's some of the cool projects and photos from the GIFT EXCHANGE for the STAMPIN SISTAH's!
Lisa had Hsiao hui and Cindy had me.  Lisa and Cindy designed an 8 by 8 MDS scrapbook for each of us that included photos and memories of our trip to Salt Lake City this past summer.  The four of us went on an adventure to the 25th Anniversary of SU! - the annual convention.  The book is amazing.  I'll share some pages in the coming weeks.  Hsiao hui is holding the book after opening it.  I had to show the lovely way that Cindy wrapped my gift.  Look at all of the colorful pompoms.

By the way, you can click on any photo to see everything in greater detail.
I had Cathy and I designed an 8.5 by 11 scrapbook of NYC for her.  I took photos of the pages and I'll definitely share them.  The pages are predesigned and she can add photos from all of her trips to NYC.  Her niece Savannah goes to school at NYU so Cathy makes many trips there.
Arleen had Rita.  Arleen found the JINGLE blocks idea on Pinterest and cut the wood and designed the JINGLE letters and the all the way in MDS, then decoupaged to the blocks.
Rita had Lisa and made her a printer's tray that has inserts that Lisa can rearrange for display throughout the year.  Lisa has traveled quite a bit and Rita designed her gift with that in mind.

Cathy had Sandi who unfortunately was not able to join us for the first year of many exchanges. Sandi was sick.  However, she was with us in spirit and truly with us in the photos on canvas that Cathy designed for her.  Cathy also made Sandi a gorgeous fleece blanket.  Sandi sure can use that blanket now with our extreme cold weather here in the Baltimore area.
Linda had Cindy and made her a really awesome 3D light up frame that has a handmade Christmas home inside.  Cindy took a photo of it on her mantle and it really shines nicely.  If I can find that photo Cindy sent, I'll post it.
Sandi had Arleen and designed a really awesome handcrafted "b Thankful" book for her.  Note that the cover is designed with 2 mats.  That was really clever.  You need to see the inside of this book because it's really clever.  More photos will come of this.
Hsiao hui had Linda and designed a really cool letter "K" for her (not shown) and this awesome Christmas Printer's Tray.  It's gorgeous and will be treasured for years to come, as will all of the gifts this year.  We all had a wonderful evening out and really enjoyed gathering for the holidays and sharing our creativity.
