Merry Moose meets Most Wonderful Time

I wasn't going to get the Merry Moose bundle....until I saw so many cute cards with it.  And I love a bundle with a punch - so easy to make cards! For this card I paired the Merry Moose bundle with the Most Wonderful Time product medley.  This product medley has so many gorgeous things. I love the Designer Series Paper.  And Stampin' Up was very smart with the present stamps and dies. The stamps have all 3 presents together as well as all 3 bows together.  Then there is one die that cuts them all out.  So you end up with 3 cute presents that you can place wherever you want on your card - brilliant!

Most Wonderful Time Product Medley

Merry Moose bundle

Here's the card I came up with using Merry Moose and Most Wonderful Time

I used a 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 piece of Old Olive, scored at 4 1/4. The DSP on the front is cut to 4 x 5 1/4. I die cut a stitched oval out of vellum and punched the moose out of Gold Foil. I added a little of the tinsel ribbon to the moose's antlers. I took one of the sticker trees and added it with a dimensional to the front, put one of the stars on top and the front of the card was done!

The only stamping I did was on the inside. I took the smaller tree from the Merry Moose set and stamped it several times in Old Olive.  I also stamped the sentiment in Old Olive.

And here's a link to the Youtube video where I show you how I made this card. It really is quick and easy! https://youtu.be/UBzgFEDY7oA

Wiggle Worms

I've had so much fun playing with the Wiggle Worms bundle this week.  Here are the fun cards I created:

I love the Brights DSP with this set. Such a perfect match! This is

Daffodil Delight and Granny Apple Green.

Don't you love this new Birch background stamp!

More Brights DSP - this time with Coastal Cabana

and Bermuda Bay

This cute ladybug would be great to give to anyone!

This bundle is not just for kids.

This is the card I demonstrated on Facebook Live last night. 

I got the fancy fold from TX Stampin Sharon. She made a

beautiful wedding card. 

These are the measurements I used:

Front -

   Whisper White - 3 x 2 3/4 

   Granny Apple Green - 3 1/4 x 3

   Mango Melody card base - 4 1/4 x 11; scored at 5 1/2 and 6 1/2

Inside -

   Whisper White - 4 x 3 3/4

   Granny Apple Green - 4 1/4 x 4

Here's the link to the video where I demonstrated this card - https://youtu.be/2bluh1rONTM

I'd love to see what you create with this fun fold!

Designer Series Paper

I love all the gorgeous Designer Series Paper (DSP) in the Holiday Catalog!  Here are a few cards I made or received in swaps that showcase some of this beautiful paper.

This uses the Country Lane DSP. A perfect

match for the Country Home stamp set.

Some more Country Lane - sometimes you just

need a little strip.

More Country Lane - I love it with

the Tile embossing folder.

This is also from the Country Lane DSP.

Quite a different look than the earlier florals.

I love how Stampin' Up pairs a colorful

design with a more muted design on the back.

I received this in a swap from Heather

Robinson.  This is the Santa's Workshop

DSP - some of the designs are flocked!

I also received this in a swap. This

gorgeous paper is from the All is

Bright DSP. Love the realistic patterns.

I made this card for a swap. It

uses a little bit of the Toil & Trouble
DSP.  I stamped these bats, but there

is a design in this paper with bats that

you can also punch out.

Another swap card, this is from Kitty Seyffer.

It uses the beautiful Festive Farmhouse DSP. 

I love all the plaids!

And don't forget - you can get the Dashing Along DSP free with a $250 order/party.  Only a few more days left of this promotion.  Here are a few cards from Stampin' Up using this fun paper:

Halloween Treats

We had so much fun at our Halloween Treats class last night!  All of our projects used the new Toil & Trouble Designer Series Paper. Here's the cute treat containers we made:

I found this cute container online from the

Paper Pixie. The cat is from the Cauldron

Bubble set. There are matching framelits

which makes it easy to cut out that 

adorable cat.

The framelits also cut out this cauldron

from the Designer Series Paper. There is a matching

stamp, so you can color your own cauldron if you

prefer.  Add a couple of strips of cardstock, a gold

library clip and a little ribbon and you have a fun

treat container.

This is the new Takeout Treats die. The bats

are from the Spooky Sweets stamp set and

there is a punch that matches. An easy way to

add some spooky bats to your projects!

Here are a few more Takeout Treat containers that my friend Virginia designed for a retreat that I went to this last weekend.

A cute Thanksgiving treat box waiting

to hold some Tootsie Rolls

I love how Virginia turned this one

upside down for a different look.

Yum!  That sentiment comes from the 

Takeout Treats stamp set that goes with the 

framelit set.

If you need a cute container to give a special someone some treats, this Takeout Treats bundle is just what you need. 

The item number is 149990 and the cost for the bundle is $49.50. That's enough to get you the Santa's Workshop Enamel Shapes free if you order by Sept. 25th.  If you order online, use hostess code KKKN4249

Falling for Leaves

I've had so much fun playing with my Falling for Leaves bundle. Here are a few cards I've made or received in swaps.

I love all the copper products we have. This

card uses copper embossing powder, copper

foil paper and copper shimmer paint!

My friend Virginia made this gorgeous card. I love

our team swaps - I always come home from with so

many lovely cards!

We made this card in my Holiday Kick-off

class. We used an aqua painter and ink pads

to color the big leaf. Add a couple of punched

leaves behind it and it's a great focal point.

My friend Kay made this card. All 

those beautiful die cuts leaves are a part of this bundle.

Another gorgeous card I received in a swap!

I sent this to everyone who came to my Holiday Kick-off

as a thank you card.  You can't tell from the picture, but

there's lots of sparkle.  I put some of the copper shimmer 

paint in a spritzer with some rubbing alcohol. I spritzed the

tiled background and the big yellow leaf.  I also took a sponge

and sponged some copper shimmer paint around the smaller

Cajun Craze leaves. I've ordered all the other colors of

shimmer paint so I'm sure you'll be seeing lots more of it!

Country Home

I've had fun playing with one of the new suites from the Holiday Catalog.  I used the Country Home stamp set, Country Lane Designer Series Paper and the Tin Tile dynamic embossing folder (my favorite new product).  

Cajun Craze and Crushed Curry - and my favorite

embossing folder!

Early Espresso and Crushed Curry

Copied this from Pinterest.  Not sure who designed it. Looks like

it was uploaded by Lorin Goodchild. The card base is

Mint Macaron and I colored the flowers with blends.

I also copied this one from Pinterest - from Mikel-Ann King.

Love the chicken wire behind it!  Also colored with blends.

The card base for this is Crushed Curry. I used some

of the new Galvanized metallic paper for the tin tile

strip.  To me it's like a silver shimmery white paper.
Very pretty in person.  More coloring with blends.

They are so fun to use with this set and the Holiday

catalog has some new colors. I used the new Cajun Craze

and Blackberry Bliss with these cards.

Blended Seasons

Blended Seasons is a bundle that is only available through the month of August.  I've had so much fun creating cards with this bundle.  The dies are amazing!  I thought I would share these creations with you.  What makes this bundle even better?  Bonus Days!  The bundle is $64.75 - that's enough to get a $5 coupon to spend in September.  Add the new watercolor pencils and you're halfway to another bonus coupon!

These cards were made when I attended my upline, Kay Cogbill's team meeting.  It's so much fun to figure out different ways to color these.

If you look close, you can see Wink

of Stella on the bell

You don't have to color the big flower image.
You can stamp it multiple times and use it as

a background stamp.

Some new water color pencil colors in this one.

More new watercolor pencil colors -  Flirty

Flamingo and Granny Apple Green...and of 

course some more Wink of Stella.

Here are a few more I made:

This last one just uses the framelits from

the Blended Seasons bundle.  If you look

close, you can see that they have stitching

around them. I love that!  This set is the All

the Good Things stamp set. It is one of the 

Distinktive sets so it has a lot of detail. I 

inked the stamp with Pumpkin Pie and

then used a sponge dauber to sponge on

some Poppy Parade.  I love the way it 

added even more dimension.

Here's a link to all the details on the Blended Season bundle.  Don't delay, this is only available through August or while supplies last! https://su-media.s3.amazonaws.com/media/Promotions/NA/2018/Color%20Your%20Season/0718_FLYER_COLORYOURSEASON_US.pdf
