Rejoicing with You

This is the card Connie made.  I can't say that she made it for my Christmas Card contest because she actually had it in the mail before I announced the contest.  It was the first hand crafted card I received this Christmas and I love everything about this card.  All the little details make this card so special; the texture, sponging, the pearls, and of course the sentiment.  The stamp set is Rejoicing with You (main catalog, p.21)

I have one more Christmas card to show you tomorrow, and then I will announce the winner!

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Bells & Boughs

This is Anna's beautiful entry in my Christmas Card contest.  She used the stamp set, Bells & Boughs (Main Catalog, p. 20)   The colors on this card are beautiful; I believe she used the retired Poppy Parade as the base card and to color the Poinsettias.  The Crochet Trim adds just the right touch!  A very classic looking Christmas Card.

Joyous Celebrations!

This is Wendy's entry in my card contest.  This is a great example of CASEing.  To stampers, CASE stands for Copy And Share Everything.  A card very similar to Wendy's was pictured in the 2012 Holiday Catalog.  Wendy changed the color of the base card, used the Modern Label Punch for her greeting, and made a few other changes to the card pictured in the catalog.  My sister, Donna, also CASED the same card from the Holiday catalog and her card looks like this:


  Unfortunately she is not eligible to win the contest since she did not post a comment on THIS BLOG POST.  RULES are RULES.  I am a little upset that my own sister (who is also one of my down line) does not follow my blog!  Just kidding, Donna!

The stamp set and the textured impressions folder that Wendy and Donna used to make their cards are no longer available because they were in the Holiday Catalog.  But beginning today, you may order from the new Spring Catalog!  Lots of great products are featured in the  spring catalog for Valentine's Day, Easter, Mother's Day, Father's Day, and other spring occasions.

CONTACT ME if you would like to receive a copy of the Spring Catalog and the Sale-a-Bration flyer (where you can earn free stamp sets and other fabulous Stampin' Up products.)

Thank you for visiting my blog - come back soon!  Just a few more Christmas cards to show you and then I will announce the winner!

Beautiful Season

This is Linda's entry in my Christmas Card contest.  The stamp set she used is "Beautiful Season" (2012-13 Catalog, page 20.)  Linda always does a beautiful job with her cards.  The coloring on this card is great.  You may not be able to see it from the photo, but she added Dazzling Details to the berries.  Lovely card.  Come back the rest of the week to see more cards that were entered in the contest.  Winner will be announced when all the cards have been posted.

Happy New Year !


I received this beautiful card yesterday - hand delivered, no less!  It was the last entry in my blog contest.  I love how Diane used Designer Series paper as the card base - it looks like wall paper!  She used a retired stamp set for most of this card.  All of the pieces are cut out by hand and colored with water color pencils.  I appreciate all the work you did on this card, Diane!  Come back and visit my blog the rest of the week for the other entries in the card contest.  The winner will be announced after all entries are posted.
