2016 Christmas Cards

Sharing some wonderful Christmas samples from 2016.  How cute does this bear look with a DSP sweater.

I made a bunch of these Flurry of Wishes Christmas cards for a friend.

It's Here... The NEW Occasions Catalog and Sale-A-Bration Catalog

IT's HERE!  I have been showing you all those sneak peek items to tempt you with samples this past month! Now it’s officially time to order from the Stampin’ Up! Occasions Catalog as well as take advantage of the Sale-A-Bration promotion (a FREE Sale-A-Bration gift for every $50 you spend before shipping and tax).

Falling in Love DSP with Rose Wonder

How pretty is this Falling in Love DSP paper from the new Occasions Catalog which is now available.  This paper is complimented so beautifully with the Rose Wonder Thinlit Dies.  So delicate and simple.

This pretty greeting is part of the new stamp set So in Love in the new Occasions Catalog.  It has the prettiest script greetings that will add a special touch to all your cards.

Square Fold Pop-Up Card: Carried Away DSP

This is square fold pop-up card is an adorable way to use the NEW Sale-A-Bration Carried Away Designer Series Paper.  You can get this paper for free with any $50 merchandise order starting today.

Card Dimensions:  cut a piece of 8" x 8" Watermelon Wonder card stock.  Score down the middle at 4", turn and score down the middle again at 4".  Then cut up to the fold on the bottom half.  I made the slit a little wider so the card folds flat.

The card folds neatly into a 4" x 4" card.  I added balloon accents using the Balloon Boutique Punch and punched out balloons in Watermelon Wonder, Smoky Slate and White.

 

Christmas Santa Scratch Off Envelope

I like to give out Lotto scratch off cards around Christmas time and wanted to make a fun holder for the cards.  I came up with this Santa Envelope using a red 5 x 7 envelope I had in my large envelope stock.

 

I basically sealed the envelope and cut off about 1/2" on one end creating a pocket.  Then it's time to decorate as shown below.

My Pretty Pines Christmas Card

This was my Christmas card for 2016.  I like making a bigger card so I can put a decent size Christmas photo inside.  I used Pool Party card stock with Silver Foil and White accents.

Stitched Shaped Framelits with Pretty Pines in Always Artichoke and Dazzling Diamonds 

 

 

Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits with Washi Tape

What’s not to love about the Detailed Dragonfly Thinlits.  Combined with Halloween Night Designer Washi Tape and a great message.  This is a super cute card.
