Fun Holiday Cards

Good afternoon!

I’ve had a few requests for the cute little tea bag holder.  Sorry I don’t post a lot of directions for projects.  I am usually on the fly (or riding by the seat of my pants) most of the time. 

To make the tea bag holder:

Old Olive cardstock: 3.5 x 7.5

Score cardstock at 1/2", 3 1/4, 3 3/4" and 4 1/4"

Decorate as you wish!

Hope this helps you!

Now, this past week has been whackadoodle in my stamp room.  We have been stampin’ like crazy women!    I just had my SAS this past weekend and I wanted to share some of the cards with you:

Now, dig deep into your stampin’ supplies and see if you can uncover your precious chalk!  This card used the ole Poppin’ Pastels using Versamarker, Chalk and a Sponge Dauber.  If you are a customer of mine you have heard me say many times to use your chalk.  It is such a great tool and especially if you do not have many of our inks.  Of course you should have those inks on your wish list.  Stampin’ Up! inks are the BEST!  Anyways, I just used my VersaMarker to color in the image and then used the dauber with chalk to color the image.  Viola!  The sides of the stamped image were created using the Curly Label Punch.  Just a fun little extra for the card.

Here is another card using the Country Living Holiday Collection.  WOW I love this kit.  I used VersaMark on the Kraft cardstock with the snowflake and then added some Ski Slope designer paper at the bottom.  Love how I can punch that Snowflake out using the 1 3/4 punch. 

Speaking of snow… I see a few flakes coming down.  Yippie!

Fun Club Projects

Good Sunday afternoon!

Seems like I have caught a little cold bug and boy has it made me feel like poo! Trying to catch up before my Stamp Camp today and wanted to quickly post these fun projects we did last month for club. 

This little guy doesn’t have to just hold tea.  It can hold any kind of chocolate or trinket.  I used the fun Ski Slope Designer Paper and Winter Post.  Plus I added those fun Felt Flurries.  The ROPE is GREAT and try unraveling it for a really fun look.

This card used a technique found in my Stampin’ Success Magazine that I get from Stampin’ Up! every month.  I really loved how using a punch and some scrap designer paper made a really fun card.  The scallop is a die cut for my Big Shot.  Another fun accent to this card. 

Well, I am off to rest a bit before the gang all shows up. Hope your having a GREAT day!

Country Living Holiday Collection!

I love a GOOD THING and this kit is a GREAT thing!  I want to share a few fun things I "whipped" out today using this great kit.  It has a super value to it and worth every penny!

I found this super cute jar at TJ Maxx in the clearence section and had a moment in the isle while I was looking at it.  Originally I wanted to put a Holiday Decor Element on it.  However, today I thought this would work.  Very simple chipboard snowflake embossed with Iridescent Ice and then I stamped "Enjoy" with Riding Hood Red ink and punched using the 1 3/4 circle punch.  You could probably here me singing at your house.  I was so excited.  Then I added that yummy ribbon around the jar and added the embellishments with a big Glue Dot.  Viola!

All of these cards used materials from the Country Living Holiday Collection.  The last card I used It’s Your Birthday Stamp set to show that you can even make some great birthday cards using this kit.  I love the stamps in this kit.  Really versitle.  Can you picture all the candy bars you can wrap and just add the ENJOY stamp?  Oh boy!  These are "KISS" cards.  You know, Keep it Simple Susie!" 

Hope your weekend is fabulous.  I will be stamping away here.  It’s a Stamp a Stack weekend at my house.  Whoo Hooo!!

Chilly Willy!

Holy Cow!  It’s super CHILLY outside today and Alexis and I even watched "snow balls" drop from the sky.  I know, snow balls!  They were itty bitty snow balls.  They melted right away but it was fun to watch.  Tonights card is in honor of the chilly willy weather we are having! 

Have you checked out the new Country Living Special?  You can check out all the details by clicking on the right sidebar.  GREAT kit with so many great things inside.  Most of all I love the stamp set.  I love a stamp set that can get a lot of mileage.  This is one of them.  This card uses the stamp set within the kit called Holiday Collection.  I just love this snowflake and the fact it can be punched out using the 1 3/4 circle punch.  I used Iridescent Ice over the Snow Flakes and I also used the Snowflake wheel on the background of the Night of Navy cardstock.  Then, I used the Baskets and Blooms die and rolled out the bottom part of the basket and used it to mat my snowflake.  So fun!  Here is a closer look:

Take time today and check out this awesome special.  I believe it’s a GREAT deal.  Also, make sure you pick up a copy of Country Living Magazine.  There is a GREAT spread of Stampin’ Up! creations in it.  Have a FABULOUS day!
