The Carols of Christmas stamp set from the Merry Little Christmas suite is perfect for creating a lot of projects, especially cards with the matching Card Builder framelit set. I will be using this stamp set along with the other products in this suite a lot this year.

To make the trees sparkle I brushed some Wink of Stella over them. Only the front trees have sparkle on them to give dimension to the card. The "snow" was cut free hand.

Have you thought about becoming a Stampin' Up! Demonstrator? I'll be sharing some inspiration using this stamp set that you can get as part of your Starter Kit later this week! The starter kit is completely up to you to choose $165 worth of product for only $135 including shipping and taxes. Interested? Please contact me today!

Thank you to all you participated in Saturday's crop, we raised $100 for Run for the Cure! What's even more fantastic? The amount of money that has been raised over the past two years for all the charities we've supported is: $3,344.31 - wow and thank you from both Lisa and I!
This month we featured the Naturally Eclectic Designer Series Paper. This pack has a lot of different patterns that work so well with many different projects. On my pocket page there is very little stamping except for the title.

The gussetted cellophane bags from Stampin' Up! are perfect size for oreo cookies! Add this dragonfly tag on top and it's ready to give away to a friend.

Lisa created these 2 projects. Her card would be perfect for any occasion. No need to add a sentiment on the front - your hand written note inside will say it all!

Lisa's scrapbook page features multiple designs from this paper pack and I like how her design pulls your eye to the photo.

This is the second card that I was asked to make for a coworker's wedding. We wanted to the card to have lots of space to write good wishes so the card measures 5" x 6.5".

It's best to use watercolor paper to create the wash of colour for the background of the flowers and stem. This is my third try to get the right look to it!

Supplies
Stamps: Colorful Seasons
Colours: Berry Burst, Early Espresso
Accessories: Color Theory Designer Series Paper, Watercolor paper, Seasonal Layers Thinlits, Big Shot, Aquapainter, Berry Burst ribbon, Tear & Tape adhesive.
