Stampin’ Up! has just released the new January-June Mini Catalog!

You’ll find a wonderful assortment of new products. BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE!

When I said it’s the most wonderful time of the Stampin’ Up! year, I wasn’t kidding. It’s Sale-a-bration! You can get FREE products with any $50 purchase (before s/t). There’s an entire brochure just full of products you can get FREE!

If you are one of my customers, or you don’t shop with another demonstrator, and you need either of these, just let me know!

If you’d like to host a party, there’s a super cute exclusive stamp set you can get FREE with a qualifying party, and if you’d like to be a demonstrator, there’s a special offer for you, too. I’d love to have you on my team!

Snowman Season and Santa Quick Treats

Here’s another idea for last minute treats!

Take a 3 1/4″ cardstock square, and score at 3/4″ and 1 1/8″ on opposite sides. Wrap around a small Hershey bar, secure with glue and decorate as desired.

Here’s the fixin’s:

Brightly Gleaming Ornaments

I think this is my favorite creation for the holidays! So far, anyway!

We made this card in Stamp Club last month, using the Christmas Gleaming Bundle, Brightly Gleaming DSP, and the Peaceful Boughs stamp set.

On this card, we stamped the bough on the Very Vanilla panel first, then die cut the center of the panel using the Stitched Rectangles Dies. We then embossed the outside part of the panel using the Subtle Embossing Folder.

Ornament tops were stamped in StazOn on Copper Foil, then punched and trimmed and adhered to ornaments punched from the Brightly Gleaming DSP. (I used the sharp end of the Take Your Pick tool to add a hole to the top of the ornaments.

We adhered the embossed Very Vanilla panel directly to the card base, adhered the Pretty Peacock strip of cardstock, then used dimensionals to adhere the die cut rectangle and the ornaments.

Q-tip Technique with Winter Woods

If you’re looking for a quick and easy way to put colorful foliage on a tree, this is it! The card on the left is done with Q-tips. Stamp the tree in Early Espresso. Then just press the swab on your ink pad and then on your cardstock, wherever you want leaves.

Start with the lightest color (I used Crushed Curry), then the medium color (Pumpkin Pie) and finally your darkest color (Cajun Craze). I used a sponge to swipe some Cajun Craze across the bottom so the trees wouldn’t be “floating in air”.

I wanted to make this card at my library class, but was afraid it would take too long with swabs, so I decided to try it with daubers. The card on the right is the one we made.

It’s a very simple technique, and I hope you’ll give it a try.

Beautiful Friendship Sympathy

Although I love to make cards, making a Sympathy card is always hard. When I do have to make one, I spend the time thinking about the recipient and praying that God will comfort them.

This card was made for my good friend, Jessica, who recently lost her husband. It was an unexpected loss, and my heart goes out to her.
