Here are two Christmas cards that I made using MAKING CHRISTMAS BRIGHT stamp set. It is included in the sale today!!
This is one of my favorite cards! The card base uses the Very Vanilla Thick Cardstock. Next I layered a piece of Silver Foil paper and on top of that is a piece of Whisper White cardstock. I stamped the circles and the sentiment with Versamark ink and embossed them with Silver Embossing Powder. The bulbs and the sentiment are on Very Vanilla cardstock.
Another favorite is this card which uses non-traditional Christmas colors. I love the Blushing Bride, Mint Macaron and Crumb Cake together.
I've had several people inquire about Ashley and her move saga. She is pretty well settled in her home in Maryland and loving it. She has an offer on her condo in Hawaii and we have our fingers crossed that things will work out. She had an inspection done last weekend and it turned out that there is not enough electricity amps getting into the condo. BUT .... it is not her problem - it is Hawaii Electric's problem. Last spring when I was visiting her, her neighbor was having problems and Hawaii Electric was working on fixing his electricity. It turns out, it is a problem for the whole complex and will probably cost thousands to get it fixed! She also has a back up offer so we are hoping one of them goes through SOON!!

One of the stamp sets that is on Clearance is Spread the Joy. This set was never in the catalog but was a special stamp designed by an employee at Stampin' Up. I just love this set! Here is a card Ashley made using the set last week.
Here is the saying close up -
Last night I attended the SU Occasions and SALE-a-bration Reveal in south Charlotte. Marianne and I drove to Charlotte when she got off work and met a group of SU demonstrators for dinner before heading over to the theatre for the big Reveal.
The catalogs are awesome - lots of flower stamps which are my weakness it seems! I think you will like the new products that are being offered.
While we were standing in line waiting to go in the theater, I met several ladies who recognized me from my blog! I was flattered. (Hi! Vicky!!) Guess it's a good thing I just recently updated my picture!
I have several events next week that I am trying to make little goodies to take for Christmas. I'm afraid I am running out of time!! I also have a few calendars to make as well as a few secret projects on My Digital Studio! I need a few of Santa's elves to help me!
I am also trying to finish up a Christmas banner to hang above my fireplace. I loved the Thanksgiving banner that I made. I made it using the Banner Kit (that was just recently on sale). I sponged the letters and the background. The pom-poms are from the November Paper Pumpkin Kit. For my Christmas banner, I am spelling out PEACE and I just did the letters on the reverse side of the GRATEFUL banner. I have that part all done - I just need to make something to go in between the letters - ribbon, banners, etc. .... haven't decided yet.

Here is a cute little box I made a couple of weeks ago using the Petite Pocket Die. I think this die is my favorite to make little boxes and envelopes to go on cards.
Box open
box closed
I used Pool Party card stock and stamped a background all over the paper after die cutting it. I put the box together using Sticky Strip (red line tape). I distressed a small piece of Core'd'nations brown card stock to make a belly band. Then I tore the edges of a small piece of Newsprint DSP to go around the belly band. Next I tied some Bakers Twine around the belly band with a couple of Tiny Tags hanging off. The finishing touch was to stamp a ticket from That's the Ticket to adhere to the front and added a punched flower. Pretty shappy chic, don't you think?
I'm trying to get packed for my upcoming trip to Texas. We were hoping for 80 degree days while we were there but it's looking like it's only going to be in the mid to high 70s for next week. Anything is better than the cold weather we are having here! Snow was even sighted this morning in Mooresville!! Crazy! I don't mind the cold weather but enough is enough! I'm ready for spring!!
I have to brag on my wonderful daughter! She called me a week ago and asked me if I'd like to go on a trip with her .... to Australia and New Zealand!! Would I??? Is the Pope Catholic??? When and where? Let me pack my bags! Ashley and her friend, Courtney decided to take their mothers on this trip and make it a mother-daughter trip. I can't wait! We'll probably be going at the end of the year. What a wonderful child I have.
I want to alert you to another special Stampin' Up is having this week. If you like to create with fabric, this deal is for you! All Stampin' Up's FABRIC is 50% off!
