Today it’s time for card #2 out of 6. By this time of year I am excited to do Christmas cards, but by Christmas I am ready to put it aside until July of next year.
Here is a card using the stamp set Winter Woods and Timeless Tidings from Stampin’ Up!
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!
Here is a look at the inside:

I’ve been getting ready for my Christmas card class that’s next month! I plan on doing 3 Classes with 6 cards each class. That is A LOT of planning! Each person will make 3 of each of the 5 cards and 1 special card! That’s 16 cards that everyone makes at each class!
The New Holiday Catalog is here from Stampin’ Up! and I’ve been having fun using all my new goodies! Are you ready to start seeing the 1st of my 6 cards?!
Here is card #1:
This was VERY fun to make! I used the New stamp set His Light on top of the Bokeh Stamp set, but this isn’t the bokeh it is the star one in the same stamp set. I stamped the Bokeh ‘star’ stamp in Night of Navy, then stamped ‘Rejoice’ in Memento Black. This is SUCH a pretty card in person! Here is the inside:
I love that I can make a card that really tells the true meaning of Christmas!
Here are the Particulars:
Stamp sets: His Light, Bokeh Dots
Card stock: Night of Navy 5 ½” x 8 ½”,3 1/8” x 4 1/8”, Black 4 ¼” x 3 ¼”, White 5 ¼” x 4 (x2), 4” x 2 7/8”. Ink: Night of Navy, Memento Black

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!

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!

Today I am sharing with you a THREE page spread that I did for my Daughter. Scrapbooking is my First passion, it’s the reason I got involved with rubber stamping! Who knew that I would STILL be doing this 17 years later?!
I’m way behind on my scrapbooking, my daughter just left for college and I’m at Christmas 2006! Just a ‘tad’ behind!
Here are my pages:
Page 2:
And this is the last page:
I don’t usually use Designer Series paper (DSP) on my scrapbooks, I tend to hoard them. But this came out so well, I will just have to re-think that!
For the Deer and the Trees, I stamped the Deer First and then masked them and then stamped the trees. It makes it look like the deer are in front of the trees!!
The supplies for these pages are listed below, just click on any of the pictures and you will be taken straight to my OnLine Store!!
I’m off to get my fingers even MORE inky than they are already!

This card is the Epitome of a Girly Card!! I used the Petal Promenade Designer Paper, with the die from the Painted Glass bundle. The butterfly is from the same stamp set! I used a Fresh Fig ink pad with an aqua painter and the Petal Pink for the middle to color the butterfy. Then I covered the whole thing with Wink of Stella! This card is so much fun!
The base is Fresh Fig, next layer is Petal Pink, then black and finally the Designer Paper. The banner is Petal pink edged with the Rose Glimmer! HAD to add the sparkle!!
This is a very simple card, just pop out the die, stamp the sentiment and the butterfly. Color the butterfly and layer all the cardstock and you are done! BUT, it is so pretty!! You would think it took much longer.
