Tags Class Preview

Today I have a little sneak peek at some of the projects I'll be offering as part of my Tags...You're It! class coming up in a couple of weeks.  I had great fun this weekend designing all sorts of gift tags...here is a sampling  of what you can expect:

Selection of Gift Tags for my upcoming Tags You're It! class.

This class is being offered in two different time slots, however the Friday evening class is full.  There are still spots available in the Saturday morning class, but they're going fast, so be sure to call or email to reserve your spot!  For additional details about this event, click the Upcoming Classes and Events tab at the top of this page.

Blingy Cheer

I've discovered a new favourite colour combo for Christmas:  Real Red and Early Espresso with a little Champagne Glimmer Paper thrown in for good measure.  Check out this card I designed with all of these elements:

Simple holiday card featuring the Scentsational Season stamp set with sentiment from Sweet Essentials.

This is another candidate for my Christmas Card buffet.  I love how quick and easy it is to stamp and cut out the mug and steam using my Holiday Collection Framelits.  The sentiment from Sweet Essentials works perfectly with the image and the stitched grosgrain ribbon adds a homey feel.  Then there's the bling!  I so love the new Champagne glimmer paper!  I am praying it comes back in a future catalogue to join the red and silver paper...they make such a happy little family!   Want more information about my upcoming Christmas Card Buffet?  Click the Upcoming Events tab at the top of the page and scroll down, but hurry, time is running out to register!

Twelve Days of Christmas (in July!) Day 10

Today I have another card for you that uses more fabulous new products from the Holiday Catalogue.  That fantastic new book goes live on Wednesday and I am SO excited!  There are so many wonderful items to make your holiday crafting simply spectacular!  Here is today's project:

Inside view with sentiments from More Merry Messages.

Cute, huh?  I love the new Scentsational Season stamp set and coordinating Framelits!  I love them even more because I got them for 60% off retail!  Just one of the many fabulous perks of being a Stampin' Up! demonstrator!  Anyhow...I digress!  This card is even better because it SMELLS as yummy as it looks!  Those candy canes are embossed with the new peppermint scented embossing powder!  Talk about a whole lot to love!  The best part is that all of these products will be available in just two more days when the Holiday Catalogue goes live.  To help you get started on your wishlist, here is the list of products used to create this card.  *Starred items are from the Holiday Catalogue.

I am super excited that my 5-year-old is going to camp every morning this week!  That means some quality stamping time for Mommy!  Don't get me wrong...I love my son to pieces...but it's hard to get much accomplished when he's around.  He wants to "help" which is wonderful, but not overly conducive to quality results!  I can't wait to ink up some of my other Holiday goodies!!
