Stampin' Up! Glimmer, Shimmer, & Shine!

Hey there! Whenever I think  of  "glimmer, shimmer & shine", Christmas ornaments come to mind!

For my take on the "glimmer, shimmer, & shine" theme, I created ornaments with the Snow Globe Scenes dies.

After cutting the Mossy Meadow trees with a Snow Globe Scenes die, I stamped with a Tiny Keepsakes image (retiring) and Mossy Meadow ink. After cutting the deer (also a Snow Globe Scenes die) from Gold Glimmer, I adhered both to the Mercury Glass Acetate circle with LOTS of  Mini Glue Dots.

I rolled the acetate into a scroll, inserted through the opening, and it popped back into shape as soon as it was inside! I punched a hole in the top of the acetate to add a gold string before I inserted into the ornament. so I could keep the circle floating inside. I sprinkled in some sparkly "snow" and added a few punched sprigs of Mossy Meadow and Gold Foil to finish it off.

I computer generated the greeting, punched with Spring Mini sneak peek Label Me Lovely punch, then sponged with Mossy Meadow ink.

My second creation is all card stock, so it was too stiff to roll up, but I love it too!

I stamped the Very Vanilla circle with the Buffalo Check background using Cherry Cobbler ink before adhering the scene with liquid glue. Crumb Cake sponging gives it a vintage look.

I added Jingle Bells!

I punched the greeting with another Spring Mini sneak peek, the Label Me Fancy punch!

Stampin' Up! Nine Lives Double Z-Fold and FREE SHIPPING TODAY ONLY!

Hey there! Today is the rare-only-once-a-year-if-even-then FREE SHIPPING DAY FROM STAMPIN' UP!

Call, or text me if you need help placing your order. Click on the Free Shipping graphic above to start shopping!

Today's card I created for Logan's birthday with Nine Lives and the cat punch:

Logan and his wife, Faith, have three cats, so I tried to re-create each one.

First, meet "Holland".  I stamped the cat image on Basic Gray with Basic Gray ink, punched with the Cat Punch, then added his coat markings with a White Stampin' Chalk Marker.

To create "Eileen", I stamped the same basic cat image on white, then added the coat markings with Basic Gray. I filled in with a Basic Black Stampin' Blend and added a Balmy Blue bow.

"Leo" is a traditional tabby, so I stamped the basic cat outline with Smokey Slate on Smokey Slate card stock, then stamped the tabby markings with Basic Gray ink.

Get all the details and directions from my free downloadable tutorial:

Stampin' Up! God's Peace!

Hey there! It's not very often I want to CASE a card directly from the Holiday Catalog, but when I found this card on page 29, I couldn't resist!

After heat embossing the candles with gold powder, I stamped them on a Post-It Note so I could hand-cut it out to lay over the embossed image before stamping with the scripture.

After coloring the images with Stampin' Blends Alcohol Markers and the candles with Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint, I dipped the Aqua Painter into the Shimmer Paint so I could tap it against my finger to add the splatters.

I accented the gold heat-embossed greeting with a Gold Faceted Gem.

Inside:

Supply List:

God's Peace Cling Stamp Set (En)	Real Red 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock	Mint Macaron 8-1/2" X 11" Cardstock

Stampin' Up! Adorable Tags and My Black Friday/Cyber Monday Special!

Hey there! I've been incognito for a few days, cleaning and organizing my sorely neglected house. Crafters aren't usually great housekeepers, are they? With our family Thanksgiving tomorrow and Christmas in less than a month, something HAD to give. Can you relate?

Today I'm sharing  cute tags I created before the cleaning bug hit!

I combined Let It Snow Specialty Paper, Itty Bitty Christmas,  Scalloped Tag Topper Punch, and Real Red 1/8" Curly Ribbon for these cuties:

These tags are a snap! 2 inches wide by 4 1/4" long, punched with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch.  The top tag flexes on the ribbon to reveal the inside.

Next, Wrapped in Plaid Designer Paper, Gold Foil, Pine Tree & Classic Label Punches, and Itty Bitty Christmas:

Inside:

I created a sparkly design on the trees with a Basic Patterns Decorative Mask and Shimmery White Embossing Paste. "HO HO HO" is a Perfectly Plaid stamp.

I colored Gold Edge Metallic Ribbon with a Stampin' Blends Marker:

Delightful Tag Topper Punch and the Christmastime Is Here Suite for these:

Hey there! Last week we had our first significant snowfall of the year, which was pretty early for Southern Illinois. We actually had a "snow day", so I had a chance to stamp a little extra. I played with Snow Front and Brightly Gleaming Specialty paper to create this:

I used Copper Foil for the mat behind the focal image and Copper embossing powder for the Itty Bitty Christmas sentiment.

This is a quick and easy card!
