Stampin’ Up! Christmas Catch Up!Recap!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! Messy weather here today. My class had to be cancelled due to the yucky weather. Such a bummer. Of course, that also means I have a bunch of projects that don't get to be made by anyone. (insert sad face)

Since I have so many pretty project packets left over, I am offering them to you, completed, of course. Call, text, or email me your order, or click HERE to go to my online store and place an order of at least $25, and I will mail you four completed projects! You choose the ones you want! Orders must be placed by Midnight, December 17th, which is the last day to order for delivery before Christmas.

Here's a quick over-view of the projects to choose from:

Stampin’ Up! Another Be Merry Gift Card Holder From the Swap!

Stampin’ Up! Another Be Merry Gift Card Holder From the Swap!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! WOW! We have about 18 inches of snow here in Southern Illinois! It started with freezing rain on Thursday around noon, turned to snow by the evening, and didn't stop until late Friday! Everything around here came to a screeching halt, including the craft fair I was participating in today, so I'm snug at home with my laptop! (and my stamps!)

This morning it is bright and shiny with the sun out and a blanket of snow everywhere! My husband is helping Ben get his car out right now so he can go to work. He works part-time doing appliance delivery and yesterday was one of his usual full days of work, but even that got called off. Guess it's not a good idea to be handling large appliances in the snow! Today he works the whole day too, although I can't imagine what they can do with all this snow. The main roads in Mt Vernon will be pretty clear by now, but all the residential and sidewalks? Ben should have quite a day!

I'm still working on prepping the packets for my Christmas Catch-Up & Customer Appreciation Event next Friday. I've already shown you all 12 projects, so I don't have any new creations to share, but I do still have quite a few of this month's swaps you haven't seen, so for the next few days I will share some of those until I get a chance to stamp something new. Today's sample was created by Carla Starry:

Stampin_up_be_merry_1

Carla used the Pop 'n Cut Card Base Die for her creation, along with the Be Merry Single Stamp, Gumball Green & Whisper White cardstock, Polka Dot Parade Designer Paper, In Color Patterns Designer Paper Stack, Chery Cobbler ink, Gumball Green Marker, Real Red 1/8" Taffeta Ribbon, Modern Label Punch, and the Small Oval Punch.

Stampin_up_be_merry_2

The full length of the die is 11", so there is room to score & fold to create the holding section for a gift card. This die even cuts the little slits for the built-in tabs to insert into, so it goes together in a snap!

That's all for now! The craft fair has been postponed for another week, so I just might have time to make a few of these to sell! We shall see. I have quite a list of "to do's" in front of me right now, including getting out my family & church Christmas Cards, so this item will have to go to the bottom of my list. In case you haven't noticed, I have  problem with saying "no", even to myself! I just want to do it all! I'm working on prioritizing, and sometimes I do a good job, but other times I just love all these cute projects so much I just HAVE to make them!

Stampin’ Up! Be Merry Gift Card Holder, the 12th Project!

Stampin’ Up! Be Merry Gift Card Holder, the 12th Project!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! Last night I went to see the Disney movie, Frozen, with my son, Ben. He invited me to go with him, and even though I am deep in the prep for my Christmas Catch Up Class next week and the Ina Craft Fair this Saturday, I couldn't let an opportunity to go out with my son go by, so I went! It was a FUN movie! I loved the story, the characters, and especially the music! We both laughed a lot, and thoroughly enjoyed the time! Now I need to make a project with all the beautiful snowflake-y inspiration! But.Must.Stay.Focused.

I just keep finding more cute ideas I want to share with everyone at the Christmas Catch Up Class, but I need to stop! Before I do stop, though, I'm adding JUST ONE MORE project to make it an even dozen, and I think you will see why this one just HAS to be included:
Stampin_up_be_merry_gift_card_holder_1

I received this from Ruth Bingle in the monthly swap I participate in. Isn't it gorgeous? I love how rich and elegant this color combo is! This project combines the Be Merry and Dictionary single stamps with Season of Style Designer Paper, Cherry Cobbler 1/2" Seam Binding, and Basic Black, Very Vanilla, and Baked Brown Sugar colors. Yay!

Stampin_up_be_merry_gift_card_holder_2

Inside is a simple pocket to hold a gift card, money, or anything you want to tuck in! "Oh what fun!" as this saying from Christmas Messages goes!

That's all for now! It's back to cutting paper, writing up directions, putting together packets, and making up craft fair goodies as I go! Maybe I'll find a few minutes to get the snowflake-y inspiration down on paper today, especially since we are supposed to get a few inches of white stuff this evening!

Stampin’ Up! Be Merry Tags!

Stampin’ Up! Be Merry Tags!

Posted on by Carol Payne

Hey there! I had a chance to work on these little tags tonight. They turned out so cute I just had to share:

Stampin_up_be_merry_1
I used the Be Merry Single stamp, which includes the "to: from:", heat embossing them with Early Espresso on Crumb Cake cardstock, White on Basic Black cardstock, and Cherry Cobbler on Crumb Cake.

This stamp is designed to coordinate with one of the Chalk Talk Framelits. After cutting each with the framelit, I then matted them on 2 1/2" x 3 3/4" cardstock layers and snipped the ends into tag corners.

The Chalk Talk Framelits also have three different little shapes to cut the center opening of tags, so I used the largest one to cut the openings. I threaded Cherry Cobbler 1/2" Seam Binding through the White/Basic Black/Basic Gray tag, Natural 7/16" Trim through the Early Espresso/Crumb Cake/Early Espresso tag, and Victoria Crochet trim through the Cherry Cobbler/Crumb Cake/Early Espresso tag.

That's it! These tags went together very easy peasy! Everyone attending my Christmas Trimmings class on November 18th, 22nd, and 23rd will make a set of these, in addtion to the Santa Gift Card Holder, and the two Festive Flurry Ornaments! Let me know ASAP you are coming!

That's all for now. Thanks for stopping in today to see what I've been up to!

Be Merry Single Stamp #134767 $8.95
