JOYOUS HOMES...

Another delay here in the Stampin' Studio.  I was excited when the custom roller shade came in again yesterday, only to find that they had put the wrong trim on the valance.  So disappointed...feels like I'll never be done.  But the Thanksgiving Holiday is almost here and there is much to be done, so no time to dwell.  Time for a little JOY!

Today I thought I would share a card I actually made a couple of months ago, but recently featured at one of my Christmas Stamp-a-Stacks.  The Hometown Greetings Edgelits is such a versatile die set!   This was the first thing I wanted to do with it after seeing the sample in the Holiday Catalog, but the possibilities are endless!  And not just for Christmas!


I sponged Smokey Slate on the edges to give some dimension to the all white scene.  Then each layer was popped out on Stampin' Dimensionals to give that 3D look.  The moon is also sponged with Crushed Curry.  Enjoy!

    BETHLEHEM BLESSINGS, Golden Metallic Shades of Christmas...

    Today I have another easy-to-make card to share with you.  I love the golden metallic hues of our foil papers and decided they would be beautiful in a more "toned down" natural looking card, so I paired them with Crumb Cake and Early Espresso. 


    I am really falling in love with the Night in Bethlehem bundle!  It is quickly becoming a favorite.  The Copper layer is adhered directly to the card base, but the Champagne layer and the Gold layer are each popped out on dimensionals.  Be sure that your dimensionals on the Gold layer are adhered directly on the Champagne layer and not the card base, so that they pop up higher than the Champagne layer to create that 3D look.  Enjoy!

    BETHLEHEM BLESSINGS CARD SUPPLIES:
    • Stamp Sets – Night In Bethlehem (W #144809 $29.00, C #145282 $21.00) ~ save 10% when purchasing bundle with dies

      CAS MONDAY, Be Merry Z-Fold Card...

      It's Monday and that means it's time for another CAS card.  Although I'm not sure this technically counts since it's a fun fold, but it is definitely a very easy card to make.  This card is taken from a swap card from Kathy Winters, a sideline demonstrator friend.  I don't CASE very often, but I decided this Z-Fold card would be perfect for one of my Christmas Stamp-a-Stack classes!


      Both the stamp set and designer series paper are from the Annual Catalog, so they are a good choice for Christmas card making all year long.  I try to make some every month, so that I don't have to make 100+ at the last minute!

      BE MERRY Z-FOLD CARD SUPPLIES:
      • Stamp Sets – Merry Mistletoe (W #143650 $27.00, C #143655 $19.00)
      • Card Stock –  
        • Cherry Cobbler 5-½ ” x 8-½” Card Base score @ 2-⅛” and 4-¼” in the landscape position
        • Cherry Cobbler  3” x 3“  (2)
        • Whisper White 2-¾” x 2-¾”
        • Be Merry DSP 1-⅞” x  5-¼”
        • Be Merry DSP 4” x 5-¼”
      • Ink – Cherry Cobbler, Garden Green
      • Ribbon – Mini Tinsel Trim Ribbon (#144636, $9.00)

        CAS MONDAY: 'Tis the Season, Deer!...

        It was an exciting weekend for me!  Friday the countertops for my new Stampin' Studio were delivered yet again and they were finally correct!  Just in time, too, since my first in a series of three Christmas Stamp-a-Stack classes was Saturday (so FUN).  I spent much of my weekend unpacking things and organizing the desk and countertop areas.  Pictures to follow soon...

        I am loving the Merry Little Christmas Designer Series Paper!  I find the Old Olive and Basic Black color combination so striking!  I know it's not for everyone, but I am liking the change-up, so I let it guide me with this card! 


        I decided this pattern called for a very simple nature-inspired card, so I used the trees and deer from Card Front Builder Thinlits.  The sentiment is from the Christmas Pines set in the Annual Catalog.  The ribbon is the yummy shimmer ribbon, but my photo is not picking up it's beautiful glitter look.  Enjoy!

        'TIS THE SEASON, DEER! CARD SUPPLIES:
          • Stamp Sets – Christmas Pines (P# 142049 $35.00)
          • Card Stock –  
            • Old Olive 5-½ ” x 8-½” Card Base

            • Basic Black scraps for deer
            • Merry Little Christmas DSP 3” x 3”
