Have you noticed the Gold Cards & Envelopes in the Aug-Dec Mini Catalogue? I love the gold design on the cards. A great base for Christmas cards! Keep in mind that these Gold Cards & Envelopes are retiring and only available while supplies last. Don't your love the saying on this card? The Christmas Means More stamp set is a great set with seasonal sentiments. In the card above its stamped with Memento black ink with the ivy coloured in with Stampin' Blends.

Hello and welcome to my blog and to the Curvy Celebrations blog hop!
My project is a 2 page spread for day 6 of my December Daily. This year I am using the 6"x "8 Basic Black album and the matching pocket pages. The main items used for other pages so far are from the Wonder of the Season suite. Since the colours in the Classic Christmas DSP has 2 colours that are in the Wonder of the Season suite they work well together!

Hello all and welcome! Hard to believe it is December but today is the Global Stamping Friends blog hop. Our theme is Leaves & Vines. My project today is a 6"x 8" title page for my December Daily pocket page scrapbook.

The snow started to fall this afternoon! It's very pretty when I can sit in my craft room, watch it collect on the truck in the driveway and don't have to leave the house. Have you had your first snow storm of this season? Days like today was my inspiration when stamping the snowflakes onto the wood design paper from the In Good Taste designer series paper. The snowflakes are from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set, stamped using Versamark ink and heat set with Whisper White embossing powder. 
 
Welcome to October's Pretty Cards & Paper Blog Hop and thank you for stopping by! This month we are using the Forever Fern designer series paper.

Some of the designs of the Forever Fern DSP work really well for Christmas like the piece on my card. I think it looks like a waterfall or tall grass. The In The Pines bundle is a good way to make some beautiful cards for Christmas or for other occasions. 

On Saturday we held our November 'Tis The Season Virtual Crop in our private Facebook group. It was fun to create some additional projects for you and to watch what Lisa created!
This is my original card that the instructions were included in the PDF. I picked out strips of the 'Tis The Season designer series paper that were left over from our other cards. For my sample card I used strips featuring the colour green. The strips are 4" x 0.75".
Hello my name is Amanda and I LOVE the Moose stamp and punch in the Merry Moose bundle!❤️ Don't get me wrong, the little racoon is adorable as well BUT that moose! To create this card I've used some of my new favourite accessories as well. Can you spot the Iridescent Pearls? In the catalogue they looked very bluish but in real life they can have a greenish hue to them as well. And the Silver foil embossed using the new Evergreen Forest 3D embossing folder really pops behind those stamped trees and the moose.
Welcome to November's Global Stamping Friends Blog Hop! This month we are sharing projects with the theme of Holidays.

Welcome to my blog! I'm excited to participate in Kylie's Monthly International blog highlights this month. You'll find the button a little further in my blog post that will take you to Kylie's blog where you can vote for your top 5 favourites.

The Snowflake Wishes stamp set has some wonderful sayings and I'm grateful that one of them is a thank you sentiment with a twist! The sentiment is stamped with Pretty Peacock ink onto a piece of Crumb Cake cardstock die cut with one of the smaller Stitched Nested Label dies.

For this card I drew inspiration for one of Stampin' Up!'s Artisan Design Team - Nina Waldschmidt. I love her card with all the layers but I wanted to show a simpler card. I pulled some of the colours from the Classic Christmas designer series paper - Sahara Sand and Shaded Spruce and added Pool Party! I'm so not ready for winter but I love this colour combo as it makes me think of snowy days. The Curvy Celebrations bundle is available for demonstrators to order now! And will be available for customers to order from Nov 3 to Jan 4. The Quite Curvy stamp set and matching Curvy dies are an early release from the Jan-Jun 2021 Mini Catalogue while the Curvy Christmas stamp set and the Classic Christmas designer series paper are exclusive and limited time offerings until Jan 4.

I shared how to create this card during my Facebook live last week. The video is below if you missed watching it. Join me this Thursday at 7pm for my next live at https://www.facebook.com/FromWhereIStamp

I had fun creating this card for a recent team swap! This stamp set has a variety of stocking images and also includes some stamps to ink up the images as well. I've used the dots with Real Red ink on the cuff of the stocking. I fussy cut the stocking and glued it onto the Whisper White piece that is layered on a die-cut Mossy Meadow Stitched Rectangle.
The A Merry Hello stamp set is a host set that you can earn free either by placing a $200 before shipping and taxes order or host a qualifying party.

Hello and welcome! This month's Pretty Cards & Paper blog hop is featuring either the Heartwarming Hugs or the Snowflake Splendor designer series paper. I've used the Heartwarming Hugs DSP for my project today.
The Peace & Joy stamp set has bold images that work so well with the Heartwarming Hugs DSP. The hardest part was selecting which piece of paper to use from this pack! My card is a CASE (copy and share everything!) of a card in the 2020-2021 Annual Catalogue. You can find the original sample on page 104. The DSP was cut to 5-3/8" x 3", the Whisper White stamped piece was cut to 5-1/8" x 2-3/4" and the Real Red cardstock is 2-1/8" x 1/2". I love getting inspiration from the catalogues. If you ever get stuck wondering how a project is made in any of our catalogues please contact me and I can look it up for you!
Both packs of designer series paper we are featuring this month are included in the 15% off sale along with many of my favourites! View what's on sale here until Oct 31: https://www.stampinup.ca/categories/sales-specials/designer-series-paper-sale?dbwsdemoid=2157916

Last month's Team Creative Challenge was a colour challenge. I chose Just Jade, Cinnamon Cider and Early Espresso from the list of colours Lisa provided us. The Evergreen Forest embossing folder arrived in my order last week and I knew it would be perfect for this card! Thinking of the colours I rifled through my designer series paper and found the Flowers For Every Season designer series paper. I love this design I've used - the pine boughs and greenery piece. It was a perfect pairing for the embossing folder and the In The Pines bundle. The Cinnamon Cider Stitched Rectangle piece is cut from the same pack of DSP.

My first glance through the Aug-Dec 2020 Mini Catalogue I missed this cute stocking stamp set. This set has multiple stamps so you can chose to colour in the images using Stampin' Blends or Stampin' Write Markers or use the matching stamp to fill in the images quicker. For my card I used Stampin' Write Markers to ink up the little pieces of the stocking so I could stamp all 3 colours at the same time. The Merry Hello stamp set (shown below) is a Host reward that you can earn for free by hosting a qualifying workshop or by placing at least a $200 order (before shipping & taxes). You can find this stamp set on page 81 of the Aug-Dec Mini Catalogue.
This card was created during my Facebook live recently. The video is below if you missed watching it. Join me this Thursday at 7pm for my next live!
