Good morning and Happy Saturday! Today's card is a stepped-up version of the one I showed you at the beginning of the week HERE :
Created in the same manner as Sunday's card, I hope to have a video for you soon!
I had fun with this one! Northern Flurry Textured Impressions Folder, Perfect Pennants Bigz L Die, Season of Style Washi Tape, Scallop Trim Border Punch, Champagne Glimmer Paper, Gold Foil Sheets, Christmas Messages stamps, Expressions Thinlets Dies!
I covered a piece of Whisper White cardstock with the Season of Style Washi Tape. When I ran it through the Big Shot with the Perfect Pennants Bigz L Die, I ended up with all of these pieces, then still had room to punch the tiny Christmas trees with the Merry Minis Punch Pack! The Champagne Glimmer star at the top is punched with another one of the three punches in the Merry Minis pack.

Good morning! We are in full Liam-mode around here! Nothing is safe from a 12-month-old! He makes me realize how far my house has come from being toddler-proofed! Needless to say, it's rapidly getting more "proofed" all the time!
I spent most of yesterday before Liam arrived running errands, helping Ben select his first i-phone, and getting groceries. I realized I hadn't done a serious supermarket run since before Oakley was born 3 weeks ago!
Today's card is one I created on Monday for my Christmas Card Class this coming Saturday. It's a pretty simple card, just some Pewter heat-embossing for the greeting from the Carryover List set Greetings of the Season and Silver Glimmer Paper strips. The addition of the Red Glimmer Paper Itty Bitty Shapes circles and the Silver Merry Minis Punch Pack star make it really festive!
Midnight Muse is the card base and focal image layer. I added the 1/2" wide Silver Glimmer "tree branch" strips with Tombow glue, as well as 1/2" Silver Glimmer strips around the edges of the Midnight Muse layer with the same adhesive. I wanted give the look of a solid mat of Silver Glimmmer paper behind the Midnight Muse layer without cutting full layers of the glimmer paper, so opted for the 1/2" strips. I think it looks pretty good, what do you think?
The inside verse is from another Carryover List set, More Merry Messages, stamped in Midnight Muse ink.
That's all for now! If you are planning to come to class on Saturday, please RSVP soon!
Until tomorrow, have a Stampingrox! day!

While in Fiji Stampin' Up! sponsored a Swap & Share Time. Ten demonstrators had been chosen to share a cool technique or project. One of the demonstrators, Penny Thomas, showed her framed art projects that have been a real hit with her customers this past year.
First off, a cute St Patricks day sample:
Then a Clean-and-Simple Christmas Star creation:
And her masterpiece, a Frosty Snowflake work-of-art:

A favorite of mine since it appeared in the catalog a few years ago, "Heard From the Heart" is now retiring! These two samples pair phrases from that set with variations of the Paper Doily Die!

An idea to keep for 2012 Christmas cards, so simple and elegant:

Good morning Stampers! Happy December 1st! Does reality set in for you on this day every year? It does for me.This is the day when I realize I REALLY ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO GET SERIOUS ABOUT GETTING READY FOR CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Until today I can be more relaxed about it all and work on Christmas when it is convenient, but from today on, Christmas becomes my focus! As a lot of you know, I have a large family; 6 kids-three married daughters and 3 and more-than-a-half grandchildren! My husband comes from a large family too; he is one of 8, and this is the year they all come home for Christmas!
With that said, I now have all of you to help me stay accountable for keeping my focus on the Christmas Holidays and everything that needs to be ready before they start!
In case you need more inspiration for Christmas, today I am sharing an adorable owl card we made at the West Frankfort class earlier this week:
©Stampin'Up!™1990-2011
Riding Hood red is the card base color, which as been stamped with Riding Hood Red snowflakes and sponged with Whisper White Craft ink and a sponge dauber.
This was a quick, 2 card class, so we dispensed with building the owl's eyes, (which are included in the Owl Builder Punch), and added google-eyes with Mini Glue Dots. If I had it to do over again I would white emboss the "Christmas Greetings" on the front, but oh well, sometimes you just have to go the easy route and let yourself off the hook!
Gotta go now, and get crackin' on that "to do" list!
Until tomorrrow, have a "Stampingrox!" day
