Merry Christmas!!!

 Merry Christmas!

I want to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and health and happiness for 2024!

Here are a few of the cards I sent out this Christmas and a cute wood ornament I made!

When I found I was running out of time to make more cards, I used the Beary Christmas Memories And More Cards and Envelopes to whip up some quick cards!

I ordered some wood rounds from Amazon and stamped on them using the Trucking Along Stamp Set to make this cute keepsake ornament. 

Coming January 4th, 2024!!

The NEW January-April 2024 Catalogue starts on January 4th! 

Sale-A-Bration 2024 starts on January 4th as well! I love earning FREE goodies!

Please try to make some time for yourself during this busy holiday season. Self care is very important. 💜

Happy Stamping and Creating!

Hugs,

FREE Shipping And A Emboss Resist Christmas Card

 Sparkling Snowflakes Emboss Resist Card

I decided to re-visit the "Emboss Resist Technique". It has been around a long time and I thought the Sparkling Snowflakes Bundle was the perfect stamp set for it! I have seen many samples from other Stampin' Up! Demonstrators doing this technique with the Sparkling Snowflakes so I had lots of inspiration and ideas to "CASE" from. (Copy and share everything).

It's not your traditional Christmas colours but it is so pretty!

I stamped the snowflakes all over the Basic White Card Stock panel using VersaMark Ink. Then I sprinkled on White Embossing Powder and heat set it using the Heat Tool. Then using Blending Brushes I added Coastal Cabana and Highland Heather Ink to the panel. Once I was happy with the amount of colour I blended on, I used a piece of paper towel to gently remove and ink from the embossed snowflakes so they would be free from ink and be bright white. I added some ribbon and a snowflake punched tag and some bling! 

I stamped the inside as well to coordinate with the card front. I also did the same to my envelope.

All the colours and supplies I used are listed below. I hope you find some time to try out this fun technique.
