Banner Year & More

Today’s cards all have one thing in common, Designer Series Paper. While they all use different stamp sets for sentiments they put our beautiful paper on display.

Check out these first two cards using the Flowers for Every Season Designer Series Paper (152486).

This first card uses the Banner Year Stamp Set (153464), Banner Pick a Punch (153608), and Rectangle Postage Stamp Punch (152709). Done with some simple stamping too this card uses Just Jade and Poppy Parade to send a bit of holiday cheer. The card has lots of texture too since the background has been embossed with the Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing Folder (152702).

And how about this next card that teams up that same Designer Series Paper pattern with the Toile Christmas stamp set (150469) and Cardinal Christmas dies (150640)?

I love the way the Red Rhinestone Jewels (146924), have been used on the holly branch for a bit of shine. And can you name that lovely delicate die used as a back drop for the sentiment? If you name the Ornate Layers Dies (152726) they your absolutely right!

And finally a fun gate fold card using our beautiful Feels like Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper () and the Perfect Plaid Stamp set (149418) and Stitched Nested Labels Dies (149638).

Talk about shine! It also uses some of the lovely Blue Adhesive Backed Gems (153547).

And check out the little surprise this card has inside as you open it, making it extra special.

Toile Christmas & More

Cardinals. I love watching these birds with their bright pops of red dotting my yard and feeder. The Toile Christmas stamp set features the cardinal and is a lot of fun to color. Since it is a sketched image you’ve got lots of choices for coloring.

Check out these cards the first one has been done using our Stampin’ Blends for a bold image and

this next card uses our Water Color Pencils for a more subtle look.

And how about some more cards? These next cards use the Perfectly Plaid stamp set and the coordinating Pine Tree Punch making cards quick and easy!

The Still Scenes stamp set was used to create this lovely winter scene.

And the last card I’ll be sharing with you today is a fun fold card that highlights the Rustic Retreat stamp set. The sentiment piece locks the house panel closed and keep it in place.

This set has some wonderful all occasions sentiments in addition to the Christmas one you see here.

Enjoy!

Shoe Box Fun at the Team Weekend Getaway

I mentioned last Friday that I was getting ready for my team retreat – we gather 3 times a year for weekends of stamping, laughter, food and fun. I really look forward to these gatherings of uninterrupted crating time with my peeps. They are the best and while it is like a big slumber party we also get to get to use our Holiday PreOrder goodies to create. What could be better?

A shoe box swap of course! While it was a small gathering this time due to schedules we still had a wonderful time at our shoe box swap. It is always good fun and I love seeing what everyone is creating. Here are some of the projects.

This first card is for Halloween and uses the Apple Builder Punch (150663) and the coordinating Harvest Hello stamp set (150581).

This set is great for quick and easy card since it has a coordinating punch – and a super set for teachers and back to school projects since its got some wonderful sentiments too.

And here is a card that uses a bundle (153006) that is sure to be popular.

The Christmas Gleaming Suite is filled with wonderful products, and the Brightly Gleaming Designer Series paper (150429) includes Copper Foiling that is quite striking. We used the new Copper Delicata Metallic Ink for this project (150707/150708) and can you see the subtle shimmer of the Shimmy Crystal Effects (150892) that we used for the berries? So excited to have these new option for our crafting!

We also made this fun easel sticky note holder using the Pressed Petals Designer Series Paper (149500).

And finally here is my card that I created using the Toile Christmas Bundle (152367) from the Toile Tidings Suite of products.

I just fell in love with this Distinktive stamp set as soon as I saw it – the cardinal is always a favorite of mine. I’ll be working up a tutorial for you and hope to share it in the next week or two as we get closer to the Holiday Catalog launch on September 4th.

And of course, what is a team event with out some door prizes?

Goodies from the Holiday Catalog catalog – winners got to choose their favorite accessories.
