Ornament Keepsakes

Ornament Keepsakes

This is another card we made for stamp camp. I love these elegant ornaments and the matching Holiday Ornaments Framelits dies. In case you hadn’t already noticed, when you purchase a stamp set with a matching set of framelits dies you get 15% off the individual prices! Just look for the bundled price and item number when you place your order. I also used another new product from the Holiday catalog. The background piece is made with the Cherry Cobbler Core’dinations card stock. It has a light center, so when you sand it you get this lovely distressed effect. It also has a smooth or textured side, for even more versatility.

Have a great day!

Scentsational Season

This is a  sweet little Christmas Card that we made for stamp camp, using the Scentsational Season stamp set . When I say sweet, I mean it. The card has been scented using our Peppermint Sticks scented embossing powder. Yum!  Most of the pieces have been embossed to add a little glitter and Christmas cheer to the card. Are you getting visions of sugarplums yet?

Happy Stampin

Easy Events

This is a fun little card using the Easy Events set. I paired the love birds with the sentiment from the the tree image. I am thinking about cutting the sentiments away from the images on this set to make it even more versatile. Cheery fun!

Happy stampin’!

Masculine Valentine

Masculine Valentine

Masculine cards are difficult for me. Probably because when I see the new catalogs, I go nuts over all of the froufrou things that I love and then when I sit down to make a card for the male species, I haven’t got any masculine things to work with. I’ve raised girls. I must confess, I love pink stuff. Then I saw this paper. There is nothing pink, delicate or girly about it, but I love it! I think it is great for all kinds of scrapbook projects, as well as masculine and vintage projects. I completed the card with embossed hearts which I cut with our new Framelits and the Fashionable Hearts Embosslit die.

Tomorrow, back to the froufrou!

Take it to Heart

OK, I think I am finally at the point where I can at least manage my recent health issues. In a nutshell, my sensitivity to perfume has grown so extreme that it has to be “managed”. Planning two hours ahead for a run to the post office or grocery store is a stretch for me, but the alternative really cramps my stamping regimen. Needless to say, I find the creative process impossible  when it feels like my head is being used for target and batting practice, simultaneously!

Speaking of changes, it is time for a new mini catalog and Saleabration begins a week from today! Saleabration runs from January 24 to March 31st this year and there are some wonderful FREE products to choose from. I’ll do a separate blog post with all the details this weekend and if you like free stuff, you will definitely want to check back!

Take it to Heart

As usual, Stampin’ Up!  has filled the new Occasions Mini Catalog with exciting new products and wonderful stamp sets. I adore this set called, Take it to Heart. It works for valentines day and beyond and the banner stamp is one of my favorite things from the catalog! I’ll be using this with a lot of my other sets! I love, love, love the ruffled ribbon that I used to frame the image, so pretty. I love the new embossing folders for embossing the edges or just part of your card stock. I was already cutting my folders down to get this effect, but I must admit that is was always a little painful to make that first cut!

Sweet Treats

Everyone loves getting candy treats during the Christmas season. Here are three different options for packaging your sweet treats!

12 gifts of christmas

I used the Petite Pocket die to create this cute little pouch. It really doesn’t get much easier than this for a quick project, and it’s the perfect size for a variety of candies!

12 gifts of christmas

I love our 1 x 8 cello bags for candy gifts. This topper was fun to make using the smaller circle scallop punch. I just snipped apart the layers and added some tiny punched circles for ornaments. Crystal effects was used to make them shine!

Tags till Christmas

Finally, gift number 5 in this series is this fun little box which will hold quite a few candies. It is a six sided box, made using the Milk Carton die! Lots of fun!

Thanks for stopping by!
