Beginning to look alot like….

Christmas!

Today was my first Holiday Zone class!  It was filled with great stampers gearing up for the Holidays!  Today we stamped 16 cards!  I must say that everyone left feeling a little less stressed knowing they already have 16 cards complete for the Holidays.  Whoo Hoo! 

I am so excited to share a couple of the cards with you.  These are my absolute favorites and so simple.

This card is super simple to put together.  I thought this card just shouted elegance!  I have fallen in love with the new Finial Press Embossing Folder (115963).  I sure hope you have this.  It really is a versitle embossing folder!  I stamped the ornament from Tree Trimmings (116722) in Soft Suede ink.  If you look at the second photo you can see just a tad bit of Dazzling Diamonds.  It completed this card!  Really!  The sentiment comes from the stamp set Christmas Greetings (115448).  I love the font of the Merry Christmas. 

Check out this next card!

Makes me want to start singing Jingle Bells!

I’m finding that I am using tons of Very Vanilla cardstock.  Haven’t figured out the reason yet, but I am noticing the pile getting smaller.  Hmm???  The beautiful designer paper is called Merry Moments (115672).  This paper is just jaw dropping.  The colors are beautiful.  The sentiment on this card is from Christmas Classics (111566).  Great set and even fits in a few punches! I used the Perfect Detail Texturz Plate on the Very Vanilla cardstock.  Great texturz plate!  This is a Stampin’ Up! exclusive!

I hope you have enjoyed a taste of Christmas in my home.  I have lots more coming.  I worked on a beautiful tile today I think you will enjoy this week!  Have a fabulous weekend!

  6. Kimberly- You are truly a talented person. You inspire me all the time. Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful talent. I love the Christmas cards. I am getting ready to do a Christmas class and you have given me some ideas.

  7. Hi Kimberly,
    Congratulations on your achievments this year. That is awesome and I know it has not come without a lot of hard work and determination.
    I was checking back on your blog regarding tiles but end up stopping on this beautiful post as I recognized the embossing.
    I have no problem with the embossing folder but when I use the texturz plates, there is not a very deep impression.
    Do you have any pointers on using the texturz plates?
    I have followed the instructions on the multipurpose platform but the impression is very faint.
    Thanks Kimberly.

  8. Love your ‘tree trimmings’ card Kimberley. I’ve been umming and aaah-ing about this set but now think I’ve just been pushed over the edge!

    Gorgeous!
