Rubber Ducky - Altered ATC Drawer

Nicole Webb was our Rubber Ducky project leader last July and gave us kits to make the five ATCs to include in our drawers along with an Apothecary bottle.  Today I finished my drawer and am wondering why I hadn't done it sooner.  I LOVE it.  Nicole has such a creative mind and we get the benefit of her talent.

This is the drawer all put together

This view shows the ATCs, picks and bottle 

I added a string of pearls to the bottle and rhinestones to all sides of the drawer and some pretty trim along  the top of the drawer  This "masterpiece" would make a nice holder for guest towels in a bathroom or to display pretty soaps, etc.

Happy Stamping!   Judy   :)

Rubber Ducky - Altered Clothes Pins

Michele Templeman came up with this great project for our club.  It was a fun evening decorating all the different clothes pins.  I used Stampin' Up!'s Washi Tape on my tag.  Great project Michele!!!!  Can you see the tiny snowman one in the center of the bottom row?  Isn't it adorable?!?!   :)

Happy Stamping!   Judy   :)

Rubber Ducky Christmas Swap - Judy DiScipio [Me]

A Christmas Shadow Box with Jingle Bells sounded like a good idea.  It was made by my elfs during the night...before we met for our annual Christmas Potluck and Gift Swap.  I  like how it turned out.  It is very sparkly.  Nicole received my gift which worked out great since she will be moving back to Denver next month and didn't put up Christmas decorations.  This was her only decoration on her mantle.  :)  It will be wonderful to have her in town again.  Pueblo is way to far.

Rubber Ducky Christmas Swap - Pat Stevens

Pat created these beautiful Heart Boxes for her gift.  They are covered with velvet and ribbon.  Pat is a wonderful seamstress and these boxes are exceptional.  They couldn't be prettier than they are.  The largest box has some vintage trim she received from JoAnn's aunt's estate sale...so it worked out wonderfully that JoAnn received this as her gift.  She had tears in her eyes when she saw the trim.  It couldn't have worked out better.  Aren't friends wonderful?!?!?!  :)

Rubber Ducky Christmas Swap - Nicole Webb

Nicole altered an notebook featuring an owl image.  She works wonders with designer paper.  I am the lucky recipient of this notebook.  I think I'm going to use it for my card recipes.  If I wait to create a cookbook, it may never get done.  I'm sure you understand how that goes.    :)

Rubber Ducky Christmas Swap - Nicole in Dawn's Stamp Room

I thought I would share a picture of Nicole Webb eyeing all the Christmas Gifts on the tables.  You can see one end of Dawn's stamp room.  She has a wonderful space to create.  On the other end of the room is a desk and computer area and Accucut machines, etc.  She even has a bathroom attached and a big window over her desk.  It holds all 9 of us Ducks easily.  Nice picture Nicole.  :)

Happy Stamping!   Judy   :)

This year we decided to draw numbers and get the gift with the corresponding number.  No Stealing!  I like that so much better!  I bond with the first thing I open!  :)
