(116517 21.95 set of 7)

This is my new favorite set from Stampin' Up's

Holiday Mini Catalog

SU also has a new punch in this catalog,

called Ornament 116794(15.95)which punches these

ornaments out. It is so much

fun and goes soooooo fast to stamp, punch, and place

on your card. There are 4 ornaments, one is

a to-from so it would make a great tag for your

Christmas packages. It also has 3 other little stamps for

decorations. I used some borders from a retired

Christmas Simply Scrappin set.

I used the Soft Suede cardstock again, and

Christmas Cocoa DSP. The ornament is stamped

with Real Red, and "Punched out!!! Ribbon is from the Holiday Mini catalog too.

Called Mistletoe 116792

Delightful Decorations

This is a CASED card from Sandi MacIver,

you can check out her blog in my list below.

In my stash of paper I found the red cardstock,

it was already embossed. And I used a different

Holly border, this one is a Hero Arts Stamp.

My sentiment is another great set from Stampin' Up

Heard from the Heart 111644, stamped with Real Red.

This is the first time I've used this set,

but I have been wanting to try it out for sometime.

It was really easy to water-color the skaters with my

SU ink from my dye based ink pads.

The Card stock is Chocolate Chip

DSP is Retired Stampin' Up Parisian Breeze

Ribbon is an unknown, probably from AC Moore

Corduroy Buttons/Brads are from SU aren't they cool!!!

This is a card design called Joy Fold

I picked it up on a video by Beate Johns, her blog is called Fresh & Fun in my listing.

The stamp is a Just Rite stamp, colored with SU markers

I tied it with some sheer white overlayed with red polka dot ribbon

The card base is Chocolate Chip, and Real Red

The punch is SU border punch Eyelet Border 113692

The card is held together by tucking the top layer

under the circle punched design. I used the SU punches

I waited and waited before I ordered the Baroque Motifs Stampin' Up set, now I wonder why. I have used it over and over. It makes a great background for so many things. Doesn't it look like these pumpkins are growing right out of the pumpkin patch???? I can just hear The Fairy Godmother saying "Bippty....boppity....boo....!!!!" and turning these pumpkins into Cinderella's Coach.

Stamps Baroque Motifs 113490 and the sentiment is from the Hostess set Holiday Best, this has also been the best little set of sentiments. The sentiment is stamped on a border from SU retired Label Classics, then cut out and popped up.

Pumpkins are punched with large oval punch and 1-1/4" Circle Punch. I used Pumpkin Pie CS and edged the cut outs with pumpkin pie ink.

Lovely As A Tree

Don't you just love this set. Stampin' Up "Lovely as aTree" It is so versatile. These trees can be any season you want them to be! I embossed the trees with several colors of Adirondack EP: Clay, Butterscotch, Ginger, & Moss.

I used a Martha Stuart border punch for the leaves on the bottom. Papers are retired Stampin' Up DSP "Autumn Vine" The little leaves on the sentiment came from the punched out ones. Sentiment is from the "Great Friend" set.

Background gold is from the new "In Colors' Crushed Curry.

Great Friend

I really enjoyed making this card. I received a thank you card with this pattern and decided I could make it. I used the Great Friend 113792 set from Stampin' Up, and black, ivory, and a light green. I had some different black & ivory DSP so I covered the insides with that. You can see my pattern in the following posts. I cut out the sentiment and popped it up with some Stampin' dimensionals. Hope you enjoy it too.

See the next posts for the lay-out and inside.
