I am sharing with you my Christmas cards that I am doing with my classes in October. For my class my girls make 3 cards each of 5 different designs and one special card that they only make 1 of. They end up going home with 16 Christmas cards! We make a day of it, everyone brings food to share and we play Christmas songs! It’s a great way to get your Christmas cards done!
Here is the card that I am sharing with you today:
This is so pretty in person!

Here is another CASE’d card. I got the idea from Deborah Smart. You can go see her card here. I didn’t do the black behind the deer, but that’s all I changed. Funny thing is that I TRIED to change it up, but kept coming back to her design. So here it is:
The Designer Paper is absolutely GORGEOUS! The Deer framelit is small enough that it still showcases this paper!!
Here are the particulars:
Stamp sets: Dashing Deer Bundle, Alpine Adventure Cardstock: Merry Merlot 5 ½” x 8 ½”, Copper Foil 5 ¼” x 4”, Black 2 5/16” x 3 ¼”, 2 5/16” x 1 5/8”,1 5/16” x 7/16”,1 5/8” x 1 ½”, 7/8” x 2 5/8”, Joyous Noel DSP 2 3/16” x 3 1/8”, 1 ½” x 2 3/16”, 1 5/16” x 3 ¼”, 1 5/16” x 1 3/8, White 5 ¼” x 4”, 2 ½” x ¾”, Copper 2 ¾” x 3 ¾”, Ink: Merry Merlot, Dk Cherry Cobbler Blend Misc: Rhinestones, Dimensionals mini/reg., snips, big shot

I fell in love with the Alpine Adventure stamp set from Stampin’ Up!, as soon as I saw it! I HAD to get it and this card is one that I have come up with:
This is a fun set. It really got my imagination going. The embossing folder is SOOOOO pretty!! Using it with the Gold Foil makes even more of an impact! I found that it looks just as pretty no matter what side of the Tin Tile Dynamic folder you emboss with.
Here are the particulars:
Stamp sets: Alpine Adventures Bundle Cardstock: Cherry Cobbler 5 ½” x 8 ½”, 2 1/8” x 5 1/8”, Gold Foil 5 ¼” x 4”, White 2” x 5”, 5 ¼” x 4” Inks: Soft Suede, Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green Misc: Frosted & Clear Epoxy Droplets, Big Shot, Wink of Stella, Dimensionals Mini/Reg, Fine Tip Glue Pen, Tin Tile Folder
Here’s a look at the inside:
The inside:
I LOVE the Wreath, don’t you?
Here are the particulars:

I saw this on Pinterest, changed up the background by stamping the Birch trees in Versamark first. But the idea came from Linda Vich. Thank you Linda!

I am so excited that as a demonstrator for Stampin’ Up!, that I get to purchase NEW items a month before they are available to the public! I wanted to use them right away BUT didn’t necessarily want to do Christmas. So, my dilemma……….how do I use these obvious Christmas sets and NOT have it be Christmas.
I got out the Farmhouse Christmas stamp set, decided to use the tree AND the incredible fence!! Did you see the fence!!?? I stamped the tree on Soft Suede using Early Espresso ink. This stamp set better stick around because I can use that fence for a lot of things! Follow this link to see my video.
Isn’t it the cutest!!?? Not sure if you can see the Glitter snow in front of the fence, but in person it is very shiny and sparkly! The tree has snow in all its crannies. I used the Fine-Tip Glue pen to go over the white (used the chalk marker) and then sprinkled Dazzling Diamonds over the wet glue. I forgot how much I LOVE Dazzling Diamonds! I will be getting that out a lot more.
I stamped the ‘Love You’ from the Enjoy Life stamp set using Versamark and white embossing powder.
I layered these onto a piece of Early Espresso, but before I layered these onto white I wrapped some Burlap Ribbon around and adhered a True Gentleman button in the middle. If you look closely you can see a Rhinestone that I colored with the Bronze Blend to go into the middle of the button (I HATE threading linen thread through those tiny holes!). The final layer is Soft Suede to tie in all the colors.
I’m planning on doing this card in a class this month. Hope they like it as much as I do!

I don’t know about you, but I LOVE checkered paper! Well, the great news is that Stampin’ Up! has come out with an awesome stamp that lets you have a checkered pattern on any cardstock in any color!
I used Soft Suede cardstock and stamped the Buffalo Check in Black. It came out so nice!! I stamped the Big Oak tree from Rooted in Nature and die cut it (thank God, no more fussy cutting!), put it on a square piece of Black and it really popped. Once I put it on the Checkered pattern I was in love! I used the Black 3/8″ Glittered Organdy Ribbon from the NEW 2018 Holiday Catalog. It was the perfect touch! Instead of doing what I normally do, I placed the ribbon over the square, because it looked great with the tree ‘sitting’ on it! I hope you like it!
I’m teaching a class on the 10th at our local Senior Center, this will be one of the cards we will be making!
I have so much fun rubber stamping. When I was a young adult my sister started painting on porcelain making dolls and pottery. I was so impressed with her artistic ability. I thought well God gave her a gift, I am NOT artistic! Then I started stamping, at first I copied everything, then slowly started changing things up. I am so happy to tell you, I AM artistic! WOOHOO! I joined Stampin’ Up! over 15 years ago, and can’t see my life NOT doing this. If you would like to join my team, I would love to help you be artistic too!
Thanks for stopping by!

Today I am sharing with you an easy card that you can make if you are in a hurry. This can be for a man or woman! Those type of cards are hard to come by! I love the new Owl in the stamp set from Stampin’ Up! called Still Night. The branch can be used different ways and the owl can look different depending on how you color it.
I stamped the Buffalo Check stamp (also from SU!) onto Crumb cake using Early Espresso ink. Sponged the edges to make it look even more ‘old’. I stamped the owl on a scrap of Vanilla and colored it using the Soft Suede/Crumb Cake Blends. This stamp is EASY to color! I used the Die that matches the owl, put Dimensionals on the back and he is ready to put on my card! I die cut the branch from Soft Suede cardstock laid it over a Very Vanilla oval die cut with Stitched Framelits. I sponged the edges of the oval with Soft Suede and used the Early Espresso marker to add the stitched look.
I hope you like my easy card! I would love to hear what you think.

Today I am showing you a card using the new stamp set Still Night. It’s from the Occasions Catalog from Stampin’ Up! I love owls, and this one called to me! I was in bed last night and this design came to me.
This was so much fun to make! And very easy too. I did a video walking you through making this card, you can catch it here.
I love sponging and using the brayer. It adds that extra oooomph! LOL Couldn’t think of another word that fit better!
