Countdown to Christmas - 9 months

 How did March 25 get here so fast?!  That means there are only 9 months until Christmas!  For the past few years I have tried to post a Christmas card on the 25th of each month - and suggested getting an early start on making your Christmas cards.  Well - this year has just flown by - so I am playing catch up and posting THREE Christmas cards for you today!

These are all quick and easy cards - I checked Pinterest and whipped these three up in about an hour using Stampin' Up! products.  The one above is a Crumb Card card with a strip of This Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper and a small strip of Cherry Cobbler card stock.  The stamp set I used is Tin of Tags from last year's holiday catalog.  I added a rhinestone to the center of each snow flake.

Here is another card that starts with a Crumb Cake card base.  It is a great card for using up all those patterned paper scraps from other projects.  I used the Softly Falling embossing folder with the Big Shot - to add the snow to the background and then sponged the embossed paper with white craft ink.  I drew some snow on the ground at the base of the tree trunk using a chalk marker - but I know I have a stamp set somewhere with a "swoosh" that would probably look better.  I used a retired punch to add a star to the top of the tree. The Merry Christmas stamped at the bottom of the card is from Teeny Tiny Wishes.
Here is the last card  -  but this time I used a Crumb Cake note card.  It is a little smaller than a standard card.  The photo below shows how I cut the word "merry" from the Real Red mat.  This is a way to save a little card stock.  I covered that hole with the images stamped on a piece of Whisper White card stock.  I used the stamp set Holly Jolly Greetings


These cards are quick and easy to recreate - and a great way to get started on making hand crafted Christmas cards this year.

November 2016 Stamp Club Projects

These are the projects we made at my stamp club classes this month.  The tiny treat boxes are clear boxes  filled with Hershey Kisses for a quick table favor.  The one on the right is lined with THIS CHRISTMAS Designer Series Paper.  Below are closer views of the boxes and tags.

The clear boxes are cute just tied with a little SILVER RIBBON.  I made the tag using a stamp from the STITCHED WITH CHEER stamp set (on sale through November 28, 2016) and a little doodling around the edges of the DECORATIVE LABEL PUNCH.


The tag on this box was made using the TIN OF TAG project kit and coordinating TIN OF TAGS STAMP SET.  The stamp set is on sale through Monday, November 28, 2016.

CLICK HERE to see the items on sale during the Online Extravaganza - through Monday.  Some items are up to 40% off.  Place an order by Monday using the current hostess code WU74QG34 and I will send you four beautiful hand made cards.
