Another November 2018 Paper Pumpkin Alternate

Merry Christmas Thinlits

Hello Hivers, 

These cards were quick and simple.  The only stamping done was on the inside of the cards.  The Joyous Noel Glimmer Paper paired with the Merry Christmas Thinlits, really makes these cards pop.

Spirited Snowmen - SBTD December 2018 Blog Hop

Hello Hivers, 

Welcome to another Stampers By The Dozen Blog Hop.  This month we are making projects that are Non-Holiday but reflect the season/weather in the area in which we live.  Well, I live in Florida and, despite popular beliefs, it does get cold here.  LoL  Our cold is not the same as the cold in other parts of the USA (thank goodness).  

Below is the card I made for the Hop.  I used two stamps sets in creating this card.  I started out with the Spirited Snowmen and added a few images from High Tide.  I sponged the background using a few "beach" colors.  I had to add the "sandman".  People in Florida really do make them on the beach.

I hope you have enjoyed your visit to the Hive today.  Sooo...What did you think of my project for this Hop?  Leave a comment and let me know. 

Remember, this is a Blog Hop, the excitement continues...

Hop on over to Carly's blog...she is up next in the Blog Hop.

Joy, Joy

Hello Hivers, 

OK.  I know this looks familiar.  Well, I have made a couple of cards using this layout.  I changed a few things.  I stamped my tree in Merry Merlot and used a Sponge Dauber to dab on Early Espresso on a few snowflakes.  

This stamp set used here, Snow is Glistening, is retired.

Merry Christmas to All

Hello Hivers, 

This set of cards is made using the retired Snowfall Thinlits.  I seen a video on YouTube by Stamping Smiles and thought her cards looked fabulous.  I just had to CASE them.  I used the Merry Christmas to All stamp set and the Joyous Noel SDSP and Glimmer Paper to complete this set.  These may be my favorite cards this season.  What do you think?

Snowflake Showcase #2

Hello Hivers, 


I am loving this suite of products.  I am so sad that the Joyous Noel SDSP has SOLD OUT.  This paper really carries the card.  But, I must say that the stitching on the Pretty Label Punch is awesome.  That is from a New die set that will be available in January 2019, it is called Needlepoint Elements.

Paper Pumpkin November 2018 Alternates #4 & #5

Hello Hivers, 

Just wanted to remind you that when you want a Stampin' Up! product, you should order ASAP.  December 2018 Paper Pumpkin is already SOLD OUT!  Wowzers!  You've got to be quicker than that.  LoL 

Today I want to share two more alternate projects that I made using the November 2018 Paper Pumpkin Kit.  The card below was made using the bits I had left over after using up all the other components in the Kit.  I think this may be one of my favorites.  

This card uses some of the Suite Season Specialty Washi Tape.  I love this one too.
