Christmas

SU Alpine Adventure

September 17, 2018

Here is a nostalgic Christmas card using the Alpine Adventure Bundle.
I love the sled and snowshoes as the main focal points!

I used the traditional colored and patterned Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper.

Mossy Meadow and Cherry Cobbler work well with Very Vanilla as a neutral. But, wait, Mossy Meadow is now in the Neutral Family, huh?
I organize my inks and cardstock by families, and I am still getting used to that when I search for my Mossy Meadow and Night of Navy as well!

I love this bundle… there are the dies that cut the stamped images as well as little extras like the bow and holly leaves!

Thanks for buzzing by, friends…

Thanks for your patience and continued viewing:)

SU Merry Christmas to All

September 10, 2018

I used the Merry Christmas to All Bundle on this card in a different way than the last post.
I used the stamp set and one of the sentiment die cuts- gotta love those two sentiment die cuts!

I jazzed it up with some gold embossing on the swish under the Christmas sentiment and on the Cherry Cobbler TO YOU.
After I stamped everything on the Very Vanilla panel, I ran it through the Big Shot using the Subtle Embossing Folder.

The little sprig of holly was made with a die found in the Detailed Poinsettia Thinlits.

Isn’t the Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper just wonderful!
I used one of the plaids but it has so many beautiful patterns in it:)

SU Merry Christmas to All with Foliage Frame Framelits

September 8, 2018

Happy Saturday to you all! Hope you have great plans for the day!
I sure do…after three days of classes, I get to spend one more full day stamping! WooHoo!
A Product Class using the Merry Christmas to All and the Dashing Deer Bundles this morning,
and an afternoon with my Downline group using new products from the Holiday Catalog-
how blessed am I? Wish all you you be with us!!!
Here is a one of the cards we are making…

Super clean and simple with the WOW of copper foil, vellum, and copper embossing.
I have been using the Foliage Frame Framelits like crazy on my cards- the leaves are so pretty!
The Joyous Noel Specialty DSP is just so over the top with its copper accents throughout!
I love the new Merry Merlot cardstock- it is really interesting how different each new color is
and how each one speaks for itself. I say to myself-
“Self, you have a similar color,” but then I get that new color and think,
“how did I live without this?”
LOL- did you get a chuckle out of that?

Thanks for buzzing by, friends…

SU Dashing Deer

August 29, 2018

I have some Christmas Cheer, I mean Christmas Deer, for you today…
You know it’s time to start thinking of making up some cards, friends!

I used the New Shaded Spruce cardstock and ink- it’s a great New Christmas green.

Along with the Gold Foil, the Subtle and the Tufted Embossing Folders play a big role in making this card elegant.
The deer is an added die to the set that does not cut out any images but just stands on its own.
I also used a New die from the Merry Christmas Thinlits to die cut the sentiment from the Merry Christmas to All Stamp Set.
Both bundles will be available September 5, 2018!

Thanks for buzzing by, friends…
