I’ll be Home Christmas Card
Today I am sharing a handmade I’ll be Home Christmas Card that was made with the I’ll be Home Stamp set by Stampin’ Up! The I’ll be Home stamp set is retiring with the Holiday catalog this year. So don’t miss out!
This card uses the Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper also from the Stampin’ Up! Holiday catalog.
Here are the details of this card:
The card base is a piece of Cherry Cobbler Cardstock cut to 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ and scored at 4 1/4″. Next is a layer of Mossy Meadow cardstock cut to 4″ x 5 1/4″. Then a piece of the Festive Farmhouse Designer Series paper cut to 3 7/8″ x 5 1/8″. Then there is a 1″ x 5 1/8″ strip of the Mossy Meadow design of the Festive Farmhouse DSP across the bottom of the card.
Next I cut a piece of Whisper White cardstock to 3 1/4″ x 3 1/4″. This is layered onto a piece of Early Espresso cardstock cut to 3 3/8″ square. The third layer is a 3 1/2″ square of Mossy Meadow cardstock.
I used Early Espresso ink to stamp the image of the House on the White square. I set this aside to dry thoroughly since I wanted to use my Stampin’ Blends to color in section of the decorations. I liked the look of the roof with stamped with the darker brown ink rather than the black of the Momento Ink. If I were coloring in more of the house I would use the Momento ink since the alcohol markers could cause the Early Espresso ink to run. I filled in the bushes along the front with my Pear Pizazz Stampin’ Write marker to make the bushes a lighter shade of green. I colored the front door of the house with Balmy Blue Stampin’ Write marker.
Last but not least is a galvanized button was added with a little piece of Whisper White Bakers Twine through the button.
And don’t forget about the inside of the card. I added a 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of Whisper White cardstock to the inside of the card. I decided to dress up the inside of the card with a strip of the Festive Farmhouse DSP to finish off the card.
These are the items that I used to make this card:

Today I am sharing a card made with the Stampin’ Up! Winter Woods stamp set; my new favorite stamp set from the Holiday catalog. I love the variety of this stamp set and coordinating thinlits that let you make a 3D tree. I also love the variety of the trees that are available with this set. The birch trees are absolutely beautiful and the line of trees give you a lot of options for fall and winter cards.
rd, I stamped the tree with versamark ink and used Iredescent Ice Embossing powder to add a little glitz to the tree. It is hard to see in the picture but the tree has a nice shimmer to it from the embossing powder. NOTE: is retired but you could also use a little of the white shimmer paste to add a “snow” look to the branches of the tree.
Today I am sharing one of the handmade Christmas card that I made using the Merry Little Christmas Designer Series Paper and the Merry Little Labels Stamp Set by Stampin’ Up! for a swap in Salt Lake City at OnStage. This handmade Christmas card is a center step fold card. 
ter panel is 2 1/4" x 4 1/2". The Basic Black layer is 2 1/8" x 4 3/8" and the DSP is 2" x 4 1/4". The front is 1" x 4 1/4". The Basic Black layer is 7/8" x 4 1/8" with a 4" x 3/4" layer of Whisper White and a 5/8" x 3 7/8" piece of Black DSP.
Last I cut the trees from Silver Glimmer paper using the Card Front Builder dies. The deer is cut from a scrap of soft suede cardstock.
I am sharing a card that one of my team members, Margaret made using the Stampin’ Up! Half Full stamp set. I love this non-Christmas Christmas card! I shared this card with my Stamp Club members last week and they also loved the card!
is FREE until October 31st with a $300 Hostess order. So gather your friends and let’s plan a night of Stampin’ Fun! 
This second card is made with the Reindeer Stamp using Soft Suede ink on a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock. The background paper is from the Wood Textures DSP pack. i used a piece of the Burlap ribbon tied with a small piece of the Copper Trim. The card base is a piece of Garden Green cardstock.
The third card is made using Real Red cardstock for the base. I made the background on the Real Red cardstock by Stamping the Word Season in a line across the card base. What I really like about this stamp set is the versatility of this stamp set. The candles are a two part stamp. That means that the outline of the candles and the patterns of the candles are two separate stamps. This lets you use two different colors of ink to stamp the candles. The banner in the background is cut from a piece of the Merry Music DSP.
The fourth card is also made with the candles but using the Old Olive color scheme from the Color Theory DSP stack.
Today I am sharing another card made with the new Stampin’ Up! Carols of Christmas stamp set. This set will be in the upcoming Stampin ‘ Up! Holiday Catalog but is available to order early – this month!
So the details on this card. The card base is a 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″ piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock scored at 4 1/4″ and folded in half to make the card base. The next layer is a 4″ x 5 1/4″ piece of Cucumber Crush cardstock. Then a 3 3/4″ x 5″ piece of Whisper White cardstock. The corner framelits with the poinsettias is used on the 4 corners. 
Today I am sharing the new Carols of Christmas stamp set that you can now order! This is one of the new beautiful Holiday stamp sets that will be available in the new Stampin’ Up! Holiday catalog. 
Today I am sharing a card that one of my team members made using the new Carols of Christmas stamp set which will be available in August. How can it almost be August??
And what really makes this set special is the thinlits that are also available. They are beautiful!
Today I am sharing two cards that were made from the same stamp set and Designer paper using one sketch to make two different cards.
Need inspiration?? I love sketches! I chose a sketch that has an element that matches the stamp set that I want to use. In this case Santa’s Sleigh. Then we selected the Be Merry Designer paper which coordinates with Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green cardstocks and inks. Did you know that Stampin’ Up! prints the colors for each designer paper on the back of the package?? I love that. So when I am designing using a specific paper, I just pull a couple of pieces of each color of cardstock and pick out those inks. Then it is time to design!
ampin’ up!. Today’s share is inspired by this week’s Global Design Challenge which is a sketch challenge.
My tip for this card is to thread the Emerald Envy Baker’s Twine thru the Real Red Baker’s Twine when you tie the knot on the bells. Then wrap a longer piece of Emerald Envy Baker’s Twine around the top layer of the card 3 times. Attach on the back with adhesive. Attach the card front to the Mint Macaron card base. with dimensionals.
Last but not least I embellished the bells with small rhinestone jewels. a Glue Dot helps to hold the bells in place. Last is highlighting the pattern on the bells with the Clear Wink of Stella pen. This adds a nice shimmer to the detail of the bells!
I borrowed the set from a friend and of course have now ordered it. Why can’t I have everything? Oh Yeah – I don’t have enough room to store everything! LOL
This card was inspired by the week’s Mojo Monday sketch challenge.
a button container. Stir it up with an aqua painter and brush across the cardstock. NOTE: practice on a scrap of white paper first to get the level of shading that you want. Then I repeated the process with soft sky re-inker. Then set this piece aside to dry.
I have to say that I love this catalog and so many of the sets within it that I had a really hard time deciding what to buy this fall! 
t using the Layering Ovals Framelits and layered onto a scrap of Garden Green cardstock also cut using the Oval framelits. The stockings were layered and attached with glue dots. The “Merry Chistmas” is attached with stampin’ dimensionals. Last but not least is a piece of Whisper White Thick Basker’s Twine.
atalog and couldn’t decide what to order – so actually ordered 6 new Christmas sets (usually I order 3).
ond card that I made using the other side of the Candy Cane Lane Designer paper. So the details on these cards.
