Strawberry Slush In Color Club Sample

Hi Stampers!!!

Christmas is quickly approaching!  Today I have a super fast and easy card you can make at the last minute.  I was inspired by a card I saw on the Stamp with Amy K blog.  Instead of an A2 size card I used the Stampin' Up! notecards and envelopes.  I always keep a pack of these on hand for quick cards that I need to make. 

This was my sample for the Strawberry Slush month of In Color Club.  Do you want to join in on the next round of In Color Club?  Look  for more details beginning in May 2014!


There's lots of glitz on this card!  I love the sparkle!  You can easily add some glitter to the ornament using the two-way glue pen and the new silver glitter in the 2013 Holiday Catalog!


Stampin' Supplies:
Card Stock: Whisper White notecards/envelopes, Whisper White, Strawberry Slush, Silver Glimmer
Ink: Strawberry Slush
Stamps: Sweet Essentials, Christmas Collectibles
Punches: Christmas Ornament
Big Shot: Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder
Embellishments: Two way glue pen, Silver Stampin' Glitter

Christmas Collectibles Card

Hi Stampers!

Today I have a fun Christmas card for you in some non-traditional holiday colors.  I used the Christmas Collectibles and the Very Merry Tags stamp sets because they have coordinating punches.

I was inspired by a card that I saw on another blog for this card but sadly I cannot remember which blog.  :-(


I left the ornaments only attached by the ribbon on the top so when you move the card, the ornaments have some movement as well.  I thought it would just add a little touch of fun.



Stampin' Supplies:
Card Stock: Soft Sky, Whisper White, Raspberry Ripple
Stamps: Delicate Doilies, Christmas Collectibles, Very Merry Tags
Ink: Raspberry Ripple, Soft Sky
Big Shot: Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder
Punches: Christmas Ornament, Mosaic
Embellishments: Basic Rhinestones, 1/8" Silver Ribbon, Raspberry Ripple 3/8" Stitched Satin Ribbon

Blog Candy and Christmas Collectibles Swap Card

Hi Stampers!

Today is my 200th post!  I'm so excited! In honor of my 200th, I'm sharing with you the card that is probably my favorite out of all of the Christmas cards I have made this year.  I also have some blog candy....so make sure you scroll down and learn how you can have a chance to win!

I made this card for a swap that I participated in on Stampin' Connection - the Stampin' Up! demonstrator community.  I always like Christmas cards in non-traditional colors.  The new In Colors are all just so pretty and I thought that this color combo really gave a wintry feel.

 

I used my two way glue pen and the new silver glitter to make my ornaments sparkle!


A punched strip of Silver glimmer paper adds some more glitz and sponging around the edges of the punched pieces gives added dimension.



Stampin' Supplies:
Card Stock: Whisper White, Pistachio Pudding, Baked Brown Sugar, Silver Glimmer

Stamps: Christmas Collectibles, Be Very Merry
