Let’s build a Snowman!

Posted on by

Here in North Georgia we’re expecting some bad weather this weekend and for us it means the milk and bread is flying off the shelves at the grocery store – don’t ask me why, its an odd phenomenon but it happens every time a winter event is predicted. A real snow, it’s a rare thing here in Georgia and I always looked forward to the chance to build a snowman with my children as they were growing up and sharing my Wisconsin childhood experiences with them. While I don’t like to shovel, or dig the car out, I do enjoy looking out the window at the snow with a crackling fire going while we warm up from playing outside with our hot chocolate – yes, even now. So when I saw the Spirited Snowmen stamp set in the Holiday Catalog I couldn’t resist.

Take a look at these cards made with the set.

We’ll be using this set in my December Card Class (Click HERE for more information) to create winter Birthday Cards.

Supplies:

Stamp Set: Spirited Snowmen (148075/148072)

Making Christmas Bright

Posted on by

Lights on the tree – I love them and they are one of my earliest memories of the holiday season. Remember when the whole strand wouldn’t work until you found the bulb that didn’t work? That was part of my job as a child – to find the bulb so that my older siblings could start putting the strings of lights on. Back then they were the big  bulbs now my tree has the little LED lights. How far we’ve come! Stringing the lights is much faster now. LOL!

The Making Christmas Bright stamp set allows you create quick and easy cards without the hassle of the old days! AND it comes with a coordinating Christmas Bulb Builder Punch so who can resist? What can I say, I love the ease of a punch for making tons of projects.

AND since we have the option of an All Occasions set too, Making Everyday Bright (148813) it’s a winning combination. (The fact this set has a cute little penguin in it doesn’t hurt either. I’m a sucker for penguins!)

Supplies:

 Stamp Set: Making Spirits Bright (148046)

Accessories: Christmas Bulb Builder Punch (148013)

*Bundle (149947)

Feathers & Frost

Posted on by

This little set includes an image that is a built in frame made from holly – this gives you the ability to layer and create wonderful note cards or used separately like on this card gives you a lovely image left just as.

And these little birds are too cute. The set contains some wonderful sentiments also along with a Hand Stamped By sentiment perfect for your holiday gift projects.

Supplies: 

Stamp Set: Feathers & Frost (147771)

Accessories: Sprig Punch (148012), Swirls & Curls Embossing Folder (147923) and Tin Tile Embossing Folder (147906)
