Day 26 of “A Christmas card a Day in November” goal!

Standard

Good morning Friends,

I hope this post finds you all doing well! Today is my mom’s Birthday. So I have a lot to do. So I will try to make this quick for  all of us.

Day 26:

Day-26

I have used a retired Stampin’ Up! stamp set called “So Many Scallops.” I stamped it using Certainly Celery ink onto Whisper White CS, use a SU scallop punch, then backed it using Certainly Celery card stock, and a tad bit bigger SU scallop punch. I have also used the new stamp set Festive Flurry Clear-Mount Bundle 133285. Found in the Holiday catalog. The smallest snowflake (the one on top) has been Sliver heat embossed then used the matching Thinlit. The middle snowflake has been stamped using “Perfect Plum” ink and I also used the matching Thinlit to cut it out. The largest snowflake I stamped directly onto the Whisper White CS in Elegant Eggplant ink #126969.  I used a strip of the Silver Glimmer Paper. The card base is out of  Elegant Eggplant Card Stock #105126. Then I used Certainly Celery card stock. The gem brad in lavender on top of the snowflakes is from SU. The rhinestone on the Scalloped sentiment is from SU.

Day-26-inside

Of course I have used my fav Top Note Bigz die from SU, and then stamped the sentiment from the set “Peace Be unto You.” I thought this would be a good inside sentiment due the the sentiment on the front. The inside senti has been stamped with Elegant Eggplant ink #126969.

Off to go spend time with my Mom!

So, to hold myself accountable, I am doing something fun. If you make a comment on my blog posts, (Yes you can go back and comment,) every day and become a follower. On Dec 1st or 2nd I will run “Random.org” and someone will win a Stampin’ Up! stamp set!! Even my over seas friends are allowed to join in!

Here is Day 8:

Day-8

I silver embossed the snowflake from the set called “Festive Flurry bundle” #133285. Yes you can get just the die cuts, or just the stamp set.

My cardstock and and DSP is from SU. I have used the new DSP from the Holiday catalog called “Winter Frost.” #132341

Winter Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper

The senti on the bottom left is from the set called “Warmest Regards.” Ribbon and rhinestone from stash.

Day-8-insideI have used the Top Note  #113463 (again) for the inside of my card. To spice it up some, I add a strip of DSP
from the “Winter Frost.” #132341 paper. The inside senti is from the set “Occasional Quotes.”

The Holiday catalog is over January 2nd! So grab your stamps and dies before they are gone!

Also I just found out some wonderful news, Stampin’ Up is now letting people have on line parties. For ex: You know how you can order Pampered Chef and apply it to a particular Host? Well it works the same way with Stampin’ Up, so you can have all of your online friends and your long distance friends and family order from you! You get the credit towards your Hostess rewards, and you don’t have to sort, or mail out anything it will go right to them.

Day 4’s card:

Day-4-Christmas-cardDay-4-Christmas-card-insideI really love to use the Top Note die cut #113463 for the insides of my cards. However there are several ways to use this die cut. The inside sentiment and the sentiment on the front of the card is from the “Warmth & Wonder #131883 Hostess” stamp set in the Holiday catalog.

Warmth & Wonder Clear-mount Stamp Set

The snow flakes are from the “Festive Flurry #133285” stamp set bundle. It’s in the Holiday catalog. I used one of the Snow flakes thinlits and cut out SU’s Glimmer paper in silver # 124005 , and then silver embossed the smallest snow flake, then cut it out.

Also from the Holiday Catalog I have used the beautiful “Winter Frost specialty Designer series Paper #132341
