Hello stampers!!!

Woohoo!!!  The long wait is finally coming to an end!  It's time for the Holiday Catalog to go live!!!

I had a lot of fun making today's card!  This is just another of the incredible bundles in this year's holiday catalog!


The tree is a reverse image cut from the Very Vanilla cardstock.   I also cut the moon with the tree edgelit to ensure a perfect fit.

Harvest - Sneak Peek

Hey everyone!

I have a couple of announcements to share today before I get to my card.

Thoughtful Branches - good news here!  Stampin' Up! still has a supply of these stamp sets and framelits, so they will continue to be available until they are sold out.  So, if you haven't picked up this great set, there is still time.  We don't know how much inventory remains, so if you've put off getting this bundle, I wouldn't wait much longer.

Also, from September 1 - 21, Stampin' Up! will offer 3 weeks of Special Offers.  The available products will change every week.  For week 1, here are the products that will be available.




Finally,  the Holiday Catalog also goes live on September 1.  I hope the folks that pack orders at Stampin' Up! are well rested on Thursday - they are going to be BUSY!!!

And at last, here is my card for today.  I used a stamp set that I haven't seen used a lot, but I love it!




Sneak Peek Products:
Basket of Wishes #142200

Sugarplum For You

Hi everyone!


Time is running out.  The Thoughtful Branches bundle is going away after August 31.    And so is the time to sign up for my very first Workshop by Mail!  Contact me today to be sure you don't miss out!!!

Today's card features products from the Thoughtful Branches bundle.  If you haven't taken a look you, do so now!  This is one of the most versatile bundles Stampin' Up! has ever created!!

I'm not a huge fan of Sweet Sugarplum, so I force myself to use it from time to time.  I have to say, I couldn't be happier with the way this card turned out.  Who knows?  I may even become a fan!

Deck the Halls

Hello stampers!

What a wonderful weekend!  It was pool weather all weekend here.  And I took advantage of that!  On Saturday, my very sweet next door neighbor brought over a huge box of tomatoes for me.  So, on Sunday, I canned 8 pints of tomatoes.  They sure will be good this winter!  I also worked on a bunch of swaps that I am going to mail out Monday or Tuesday.  I can't wait to share those cards with you in a couple of weeks!

Today's card uses some sneak peek products plus a stamp set that I haven't shared before.  Take a look!



Supply List:

Sneak Peek items (available September 1):
Merriest Wishes and Tags Bundle
Bakers Twine Trio Pack
Glitter Embossing Powder
