I fell in love with the Home for Christmas Designer Series Paper the moment I seen it in the Holiday Catalog. I knew that I could and would create wonderful things with it. These two cards just have slight differences between them. I love them both. I seen the layout for this card over on Pootles blog.
I told you that you can make a variety of cards using the Home for Christmas Designer Series Paper. Here I used the cut outs of Santa going down the chimney. I used a red sharpie marker to color the Rhinestone Jewels and Old Olive classic ink to sponge around the sentiment. The sentiment was cut out using the 4th Lots of Labels Framelits. It's hard to see in the photo, but the background was embossed using the Decorative Dots embossing folder.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful Thanksgiving Day. Today I am sharing a video featuring a kit that can be easily overlooked in the Annual Catalog on Page 155. It's the Build a Banner Kit. It comes with everything you need except for the re-inker in the color of your choice. Those can be found on Pages 137-141.
Here is a project I made using a Retired Framelit set. I watched a video tutorial over at frenchiestamps.com. I can't remember who I gave this to. I love how the DSP matches the Stampin' Up! lip balm. Even though more than half the items in my collection are retired, I will still continue to use them. Some things are just that Awesome.
Today I am sharing a Christmas card made using the Brick Wall embossing folder. I love the way it turned out. I inked up the embossing folder with Tip Top Taupe classic ink to get the grout lines. I used a red sharpie marker to color the Rhinestone Jewels then I sponged all the pieces using the Tip Top Taupe classic ink, as well.
Until next time....Buzzz you later,

So, as I stated previously, I didn't order the September 2015 Paper Pumpkin. However, I did order 4 of the Refill Kits to make up some more of these cute bags to be used at Thanksgiving. I must say I noticed some very big differences with the bags I used from the corner store and Stampin' Up! bags.
The SU! bags are smaller, but they are so much thicker, thereby, sturdier. Having everything already cut and ready to go made this project super easy and quick to put together.
Because I only purchased the refill kit, I wasn't able to get the stamp set or ink spot. So, on my tags I used the Trust God stamp set with Tangerine Tango classic ink.
Okay...I forgot this project was part of the teacher appreciation gifts from last year. The tag has the teachers initial on it. I used two different letter "B's", one on each side of the tag.
Just about all of the items used are now retired. But the purse is still pretty. It can easily be recreated with current products.
I CASE'd this card from someone on Pinterest. This is another card to go in my mothers birthday card box that I gave her on Mother's Day. I am loving this Sprinkles of Life stamp set. For every one of these particular stamp sets sold, Stampin' Up! will donate $3 to the Ronald McDonald House Charities.
Here is another Christmas card using the Home for Christmas DSP. I found a similar card on Pinterest. Of course, as always, I changed a few things to add my style to the card. I just love the little deer on the inside of the card.

The Watercolor Wishes Card Kit has to be one of my favorites. It has everything you need except for the adhesive. Yes, everything. That includes the 12 piece Photopolymer Stamp Set, a clear block, and Ink Spots. There is a great picture of this kit on Page 80 of the Annual Catalog. You can also see this card kit on Page 155.
Check out this video to see what the buzzz is all about.
Here is the last teacher appreciation gift that I made for my daughters teacher last year. It is a sticky note holder. I love this stamp set, although it is retired. It is called Friendship Preserves. I believe that I seen the the tutorial for this note holder over at dawnsstampingthoughts.net.
I really like the color combination that I used, here. All the bling really makes this project stand out. I will continue to share my projects. I would like to hear from you. What type of projects do you like for me to share?
I am finally getting around to sharing the photos of my Paper Pumpkin kit from May. My Paper Pumpkin is a surprise in a box that will be delivered to your door each month for only $19.95 a month. Each month has a different theme. As you can see the theme for May was birthdays. The kit made six cards and four gift bags. They even provide the envelopes. You can either follow the directions that come with your kit or venture out a bit, like I did, and change things up. It's your choice.
I am in love with this Designer Series Paper (DSP). I went a little overboard with cutting out the images. I cut an entire 12x12 sheet of the Santa images. Sooooo...I will be sharing all the cards I have created using the images.

Just buzzzing by with a quick video post for you today. This Project Kit can be found on Page 152 of the Annual Catalog. To view the catalog, click the image to the left on the sidebar.
Here is a handbag that I created using my favorite colors...Red and Black. I used a tutorial I found over at Persephone's Papercraft.
I used the retired Back to Black DSP to decorate with. I also added a tag with my personalized stamp. I so wish that Stampin' Up! would have continued to offer these.
This is one of the cards I made to replenish my mothers Birthday stash. I used the Cherry on Top DSP stack along with the Sprinkles of Life stamp set and Tree Builder punch. I seen this card design over on Pinterest.
