Stampin’Up! Holiday Home!

Stampin’Up! Holiday Home!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! It's Monday! I know many people hate Mondays, start dreading Monday morning on Sunday night, but I don't. I used to when I had a day-job, but since I became a full-time Stampin' Up! demo, Mondays are an exciting day for me! A whole new week to play with my stamps and accomplish things on both my "To Do" and "Want To" lists! Do you have a "Want To" list, or are all of your lists "To Do's"? Start a "Want To" list, make sure you accomplish one or two of them every week, and see if it doesn't help your outlook on Mondays!

Now that I'm off my advice-column soapbox, here's the Holiday Home card that we will be making at my Christmas Card Class this week:

Stampin_up_holiday_home_1

If you are local (and even if you are not) you can participate in my September Christmas Card Class. Just contact me to let me know you are coming to class or want to place a minimum $35 order to receive the class kits by mail. You will receive the kits to make all three cards in this class, (today's Holiday Home card plus two more, two each of the three different designs for a total of SIX cards!)

Here's the supply list for today to place your order in my Online Store: www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Hey there! My week has really flown! With my sweetheart in Branson for a few days is delightful, but time is really flying!

Yesterday we took the Branson Belle Showboat Dinner Cruise!

Branson belle 1

The food was delicious, the show was fun, and during intermission we checked out the boat:

Branson belle 2

Branson belle 3

I did some creating before I left, getting ready for Punch & Technique and Christmas Card Classes. Today's card is made with Holiday Home. It didn't make the cut for class (see the email that's going out later today to see which cards DID make the cut!), but I still wanted to share:

Stampin_up_holiday_home_1 - Copy

I love the little houses in Holiday Home, and the Homemade Holiday framelits cut them out for you! I hand-cut the little pine trees with Paper Snips (one reason why this card didn't make the cut!)

I added stars to the Night of Navy card base with Silver Encore Metallic ink,  a sponge dauber, and the stars stencil from Stars & Hearts Decorative Masks.

The adorable "merry Christmas" is from the Good Greetings Hostess set. This set is  free when you host a $300 party (in home or catalog) between now and October 31st. With the exception of the Good Greetings "merry Christmas", all stamps used on this card are from Holiday Home.

Be sure you are subscribed to my newsletters to learn how I created the snow-covered hills on this card. My next newsletter is going out later today!
