Sweet TREATS to share!

Sharing some adorable RAKs from friends recently...mahalo for all the yummy goodies. Just LOVE the packaging!!

This one's from the g/f Kim...she made the yummy candy apple. I have to admit, I've never eaten candy apple before. How do you even start? Yum!! Thanks Kim!























Next one is from Leslie...candy corn! I love that she altered a zip lock container. So cute with the ric-rak ribbon & ruffleles underneath the lid that isn't showing too well in the pix. Love it Les!!























Claudie gave me this adorable bath set...it's too pretty to open & use. I think she used Mango Luau DP..love the colors...oh, it's our Pineapple Cove colors. I'll share the mini album she made to go with the gift set in another post. Thanks Claudie..I'm really going to miss you!!
























Mother & Daughter team - Susan & Jennifer gave me this gift box with amazing coloring & detail of some TGF digi's. Love the kraft box and all the little details she added...like the spider embossing, web & spider cut-out. It's so cute! Mahalo Susan & Jennifer!!























Another mother & daughter team - Misty & Trisha gifted me this goodie bag filled with chocolates....and a handmade Hello Kitty pillow case! Look closely, it's Hello Kitty as a mummy...this is such an adorable print she got from Jo Ann's! Can't wait to go home and use it!
























Love it all!!! Thanks so much my friends, you all inspire me and have such big hearts and contagious smiles. Love you all!!

Have a safe & fun Halloween everyone!!

Advent Calendar Class

















Counting down the days until Christmas will be a pure joy with this beautiful & creative Advent Calendar. We're excited here at Pineapple Cove to welcome Carmel Yee to our growing family. Her creativity and warm heart is a great addition to our team. She will be teaching this wonderful Advent Calendar class on Sunday, November 7th from 1:30 - 3:30.

Using a petal punch and some embellies, Carmel turned this plain frame into a beautiful piece of art! In this class, she will guide you through the process of creating this truly artistic and interactive holiday decoration.

Seating is limited, and we expect this class to sell out quickly!! So sign up early by calling 735-3553. Cost of the class is $25 and will include everything for you to complete this calendar. Please note: DP used for class will differ and vary from the images below. Supplies you need to bring will be scissors and adhesive (double sided tape and 3D Foam).

"Gorjuss" Calendar by UDT Jen Young

We've got exciting news to share!! Here at Pineapple Cove, we are very privileged to have the talented, funny, and lovable Cricut Queen herself, Jen Young from Pieces of Me join our "unoffical" DT. Thanks Jen for all the love and support! You are such a sunshine to be around, we're so honored to be able to showcase your amazing projects to help inspire our crafty addiction.

We hope to develop some form of Design Team in the near future...something to look forward to in the new year. So in the meantime, Jen will be inspiring all of us alongside Claudette (Islander Girl Stampin) and Leslie (JC&me), with all their paper goodness on our UDT. =)

So without further adieu....here's Jen's first piece of work for PC. A very "gorjuss" coaster calendar.




















Love the Gorjuss Girl stamp called "Flower Girl" that she used in this project. They are so quick and easy to color with your copics...we've only got a few Gorjuss stamps left at Pineapple Cove, so be sure to come snatch them before they are gone!

These coaster calendars make great gifts for the upcoming holidays. We've got both the square & rectangle heavy weight coasters in stock at the store & online, so stock up and start early on your holiday projects. Coaster classes will be added soon to the class schedule.

The pretty yellow & gray DP is from Pink Paislee's "Queen Bee" paper pad. Jen also used some Smooch Ink from Stampin' Up! and embellies from her own stash. With her busy schedule, Jen also squeezes in time to be a Stampin' Up demonstrator. So if you ever have any questions or needs regarding Stampin' Up supplies, feel free to shoot her a line.
























Again, warm welcome and hugz to Jen, can't wait to see your beautiful creations!!!
