Menagerie Mix Up

Like mixing it up? As a child I had Colorforms – Do you remember them? Kind of like the paper dolls I loved to play with, but more durable. The outfits were vinyl pieces that would stick to any glossy surface—and each other—over and over again, for countless creative combinations. Such a simple toy but my sister and I spent hours playing with them. Well that’s what the Menagerie Mix Up Bundle (155179) reminds me of as this childhood toy since this set allows you to create countless combinations too.

And today I’ll be sharing a couple of cards with you using this set. This first one is an adorable little reindeer for the holidays.

The card also uses our Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper (153491) and All the Trimmings Embellishments (153540) that are part of the Year End Closeout Sale.

And this next one is a little lamb that is done in shades of Purple Posy and Misty Moonlight.

The Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper (153512) has been used along with our Silver Metallic Edge Ribbon (144213). I just love this ribbon since you can change the color up sooooo easily. Like here, a few strokes of the Purple Posy Stampin’ Blends and you’ve got a coordinating ribbon! How great is that? And that little scarf picks up the silver edging on the ribbon since it has been cut from the Feels Like Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper (150444).

So what do you think? Fun? I can see making this into a fun toy too. Stamp lots of pieces, mount them onto a thin magnetic sheet and you’ve got a fun toy that will give hours of playtime!

You can find these items and more in our Year End Closeout Sale in my Online Store, but remember items are while supplies last.

There is lots of texture on this next card since it uses the Winter Snow Embossing Folder as a back drop.

Dove of Hope

Doves the universal sign of love & peace. And did you know that doves appear in the symbolism of Judaism, Christianity, Islam and Paganism, and of both military and pacifist groups? That is a lot of ground to cover for just one image. So why not take a look at the Dove of Hope Bundle in a new light?

This first card uses the stamped image and the mask technique. The area below the dove has been sponged with Seaside Spray and Highland Heather for a soft look. The silver pattern behind the Nested Die cut image is from our Feels Like Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper and the Rhinestones pull in that bit of silver into the focal point.

The Tine Tile 3D Embossing Folder add some interest and texture to this card. Soft and lovely and here are two more cards using this soft color pallet along with the coordinating dies.

Done using the Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper (153512) this card is soo easy simply stamp your sentiment and cut out the images and then add a few of the Snowflake Adhesive Embellishments (153545) for a bit of shimmer & shine.

And this last card uses our Purple Posy and Highland Heather to create a tone on tone effect.

Gift Wrapped

First a quick reminder if you haven’t already redeemed your Bonus Days Coupons there are just a couple of days left to do so.

You don’t want to miss out on the savings while you get some of your favorite new things too!

Today’s stamp set seemed perfect for today’s post since I feel like I unwrapped a wonderful gift yesterday afternoon with the kick off of our leadership event. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate each and everyone of you who allow me to share what I love with you. Without you I couldn’t achieve my goals and be included in special leadership events like the Leaders Summit this weekend. So here’s to you!

I thought I’d give you a little look of my peek at my set up this weekend – my guys helped me rearrange a bit so I’d be more comfy with a larger screen to stream on.

Sorry I know they aren’t the best pictures, my daughter says I’m selfie challenged, but you get the idea. Of course, as with every Stampin’ Up! event we need some chocolate and snacks.

And yes, Larry did spot the chocolate first thing as he walked through the classroom lol. (You’ll be happy to know I did provide him with his own little bowl which made him happy. Although, I’m not sure how much he got since Johnathan quickly found it too!)

Well on to the projects, right? These cards are all made with the Gift Wrapped Bundle found in our Mini Catalog. While each of the 3 cards use the same stamp set, each has a very different look. Isn’t that the great thing about stamps? We all start with the same stamps but we can get creative and personalize it to suit our needs.

This first card teams up the Gift Wrapped Bundle with the Plaid Tidings Designer Series Paper (153527) and some vellum that has been dry embossed using the Winter Snow Embossing Folder (153577) for a festive feel.

This next monochromatic card is done in Pretty Peacock.

Some shine has been added to the bow with Clear Embossing Powder. The bow was first stamped in Pretty Peacock Classic Ink and then again in VersaMark. Allowing it to be heat embossed which gives it really cool effect. And if you didn’t notice them in the Mini, the Iridescent Pearls (153549) are simply beautiful!

This last card uses the lovely Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper (153512) and the Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper (153513).

Talk about sparkle and glimmer! And check out the cute little Snowflake Adhesive Baked Embellishments (153545).

This Bundle includes a punch – and punches are one of my favorite things for quick and easy card making and other projects.

And did you know if your bows on your packages get squished and flattened you can try this? The Bundle will allow you to create lovely flat bows for those packages this holiday season so you can feel free to stack those packages!
