Poinsettia Petals - Plush Poinsettia Specialy DSP

Poinsettias are one of my favorite Christmas flowers.  My husband would always buy me one for my birthday in December every year and it would last for months.  This one is made with Cherry Cobbler and Old Olive Stampin' Blends instead of the traditional red.  The Poinsettia Petals comes in a bundle with the Poinsettia Dies.  I used the Plus Poinsettia Specialty DSP as the second layer.  It is a beautiful paper.  I used the new Banners Pick a Punch for the sentiment.  I also used the Beaded Pearls for the center of the Poinsettia.  This card was inspired by Patsy Waggoner on Pinterest but changed somewhat

Coming Home - Season's Greetings


Bermuda Bay and Pool Party are some of my favorite Stampin' Up! colors, so when I saw a similar card made by Cindee Wilkinson, I knew I wanted to create a card too.   However,  I changed mine to a Christmas card and added a wreath and different banners, but like the colors that she used.  I'm having lots of fun with this stamp set called Coming Home which is also a Bundle with the Home Together Dies.  I can see so many uses for this stamp set.  Also, if you purchase this set, $3 will be donated to adoption, foster care, and fertility.

Coming Home - Page 42

Christmas is Coming!  It will be here before you know it.  Time to start making those Christmas cards so that you have plenty and you are not making them at the last minute.  So I decided to get started. This is a somewhat case of the card on Page 42 of the Stampin' Up! Aug-Dec. Mini Catalog using the Coming Home Bundle.  I used a different sentiment and different ribbon.  The sentiment "Merry Christmas" is from the stamp set Perfectly Plaid and the ribbon is the Real Red Braided Linen Trim.
The Designer Series Paper is Trimming the Town Hall.  The Stampin' Blends I used were Pool Party, Smoky Slate, Poppy Parade, and Old Olive.  I also used the Timeless Label Punch.

Have a Hoot

This time of year, I seem to find a lot of cobwebs on my front porch, but I guess it just goes with the decor for Halloween.  Halloween isn't for a couple months but I wonder how it will be with COVID this year.  Will the kids go out trick or treating?  It's even on a Saturday this year.  Maybe just let the kids sit in their yards with their costumes on and a parade of cars drive by and throw candy out to them like they do in real parades.  Just an idea I thought of.  Anyway, I love this owl but I don't like spiders especially on my front porch.  It's awful to walk through a cobweb!  This little owl doesn't like spiders either.  I made this card for my swap this month.  Here are my instructions:

1.     The base of the card is Pumpkin Pie cardstock cut at 4-1/4” x 11” and scored at 5-1/2” in the middle.
2.    The second layer is Basic Black cardstock cut at 4” x 5-1/4”, and the third layer is Crumb Cake cut at 3-3/4” x 5”.  Insert the Crumb Cake in the Woodland Embossing Folder and run it through the Big. Shot.  Adhere to the Basic Black cardstock.  Wrap the Metallic Mesh Ribbon around both layers and tape to the backside with Scotch Tape.
3.    Ink up the owl/tree with Memento Black ink on Whisper White cardstock.  Cut out with the Stitched Shapes Dies.  Color in the tree with Soft Suede Blends.  Ink up another one on a scrap of Whisper White and die cut the owl and spider with the Peek-A-Hoot Dies.  Color them in and attach with Dimensionals.  Pop them up with Dimensionals (cut one smaller for the spider).  Die-cut a Pumpkin Pie scalloped circle with the Layering Circles Dies.  Layer together with Adhesive.  With Dimensionals on the back, adhere over the ribbon.
4.    Die a Basic Black Spider web with the Peek-a-Hoot Dies and attached in the upper right-hand corner with a Black Dimensional.
5.    Ink up the sentiment “Have a Hoot on Halloween” with Memento Black on a ¾” x 2-1/4” Whisper White Label.  Insert into the Banner Pick a Punch.  Attach with Dimensionals to the bottom the left-hand side of the card.
