Stampin’ Up! Merry Christmas Eve!

Hey there! It's down to the wire today with finishing wrapping and the kids are all coming later today, yay!

I have a few more Christmas ideas to share, yay!

First, gift tags Tina swapped at our Mam's Christmas party. She used Candy Cane Christmas Designer Paper (sold out) and Candy Cane Christmas stamps, (retiring, the clear-mount version is discounted 20%!)

Tina's smart, CASEing from page 4 of the Holiday Catalog! No need to strain your brain for ideas, all of the Stampin' Up! catalogs are PACKED with lots of lovely inspiration!

Of course, the best thing about CASEing (Copy And Share Everything) is you can always put your own special twists!

Stampin_up_candy_cane_christmas_carolpaynestamps3

Stamp with a different ink color, stamp MORE images, use a different background, it's ALL UP TO YOU!

Stampin_up_candy_cane_christmas_carolpaynestamps4

So cute, so quick, so EASY!

Next, I received this beautiful Ornamental Pine (retired) card from a new member of my team, Kari Dillingham. Though retired, I still love to see cards made with this set!

Finally today, a card created by my good stamping friend, Marlene Nosbisch. Marlene combined stamps she already had in her collection with new This Christmas Specialty Designer Paper, and Garden Green card stock embossed with the Holly Folder.

Petals-a-Plenty Christmas Tree!

Petals-a-Plenty Christmas Tree!

As promised, here is my mini-tutorial for creating an embossed Christmas Tree using the Petals-a-Plenty Textured Impressions Folder and the Big Shot!

I started by using my Hobby Blade and the Cutting Mat to cut two tree-shaped triangles out of a piece of thick cardboard from one of my packages of Candy Candy Christmas Designer Series Paper. The cardboard needs to be pretty thick and sturdy so it can take the place of the bottom acrylic cutting pad.

November 2010 065©Stampin'Up!™1990-2010

I attached these two triangles to each other with Sticky Strip.

November 2010 066©Stampin'Up!™1990-2010

I then attached the triangle to the positive side (petals popping UP!) of my Petals-a-Plenty Textured Impressions folder with Dotto repositionable adhesive. You want your triangle to be on the bottom of your sandwich going through the Big Shot, (this pic shows everything upside down). Insert your cardstock as shown in the picture so you can perfect the placement of the tree. Flip this all over and run through the Big Shot with this sandwich order: cardboard triangle attached to Impressions Folder, Impressions Folder with cardstock in middle, acrylic cutting plate.

November 2010 086©Stampin'Up!™1990-2010

Here's your Petals-a-Plenty Christmas Tree!

November 2010 071

©Stampin'Up!™1990-2010

Use the journaling tip of a Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Write Marker to just barely apply color to the dots in the centers of the poinsettias and between the flowers. You will have a few slightly embossed petals around the main tree image, but you choose where you want your tree to begin and end by where you color the dots and later where you put the Two-way Glue and Dazzling Diamonds Glitter!

  November 2010 072©Stampin'Up!™1990-2010

This pic shows part of the tree has had Two-Way Glue applied and sprinkled with Dazzling Diamonds Glitter so you can see the difference of with and without the glitter!

November 2010 076©Stampin'Up!™1990-2010

We stamped the inside with a verse from Seasonal Sentiments, and surrounded it with snowflakes from Snow Swirled, all in Cherry Cobbler ink!

November 2010 085©Stampin'Up!™1990-2010

After adding a strip of Cherry Cobbler punched with the Dotted Scalloped Ribbon Border and a strip of Deck the Halls Designer Series Paper, we added a greeting from Snow Swirled punched with the Wide Oval punch, matted on a Cherry Cobbler Decorative Label. The finishing touch is a Basic Jewel Rhinestone on the top of the tree!

Getting Ready for Halloween!

Getting Ready for Halloween!

I have several stamping classes scheduled at my house this month, so I decided to dress up some pumpkins for Halloween with some super-neat (I can't call spiders cute, I'm sorry!) Decor' Elements, "Spooky Things" in Black, #120909 $14.95 from the Holiday Mini (pg 8) These also come in Basic Gray if you want a little less dramatic look!

001

©Stampin'Up!™1999-2010

They were very easy to apply to the pumpkins, which I purchased separately at several different discount stores on several different occasions (I waited for the largest pumpkin to go on sale 50% off!) My candles I purchased on clearance a couple of years ago (yes, I'm cheap, but being a farmer's wife with 6 kiddos all those years made me that way! smile!) I was  bit worried about getting everything smooth with the ridges on the pumpkins, which is why there are no Decor Elements on the middle one, which has the deepest ridges. I was a little creeped out while putting the spiders on the big pumpkin, but I persevered! I happen to HATE spiders, snakes, any of those creepy-crawly things and always yell for my DH on one of my sons to come and kill them for me!

However, these Decor' Elements are just the right solution for someone like me who wants a little Halloween decor' but can't handle any more realistic than this! If you haven't seen our 2010 Definitely Decorative 2011 Catalog, go to my Stampin' Up! Demonstrator Website:

www.carolpayne.stampinup.net

Click on the "Shop Now" button on the upper right side of the page, then click on "Home Decor". You will then have choices of "Vinyl Art", "Stencils", "Decor Accents", "Charms & Chains", "Raw Materials", and "Textiles". Lots of great products to explore to decorate your home and gifts to suit your style!

Here's another piece from the "Spooky Things" set I put on my front door:

©Stampin'Up!™1999-2010

After Halloween I will just remove this from my door and throw away as they are not re-usable, but at $14.95 for the set of 10, they are VERY economical. I already have some adorable Real Red Decor Elements, "Candy Cane Christmas" #120912 , $14.95 from the same Holiday Mini (pg 36). They also come in Old Olive if that better suits your taste, or you can buy both and mix them together for a true Christmas color scheme!

Until tomorrow, have a GREAT Stampingrox! day!
