One of the most popular bundles in the 2017 Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog is the Christmas Quilt Bundle. It's easy to see why!! It's a versatile stamp set that makes elegant cards which appeal to almost anyone who has ever snuggled deep into a homemade quilt on a chilly night! This is one of the cards I created for Fall Flair and it was so much fun to make! I've made of lot of them and it never gets tiring . . . although my friends Cindy Standal and Kathy Trussel might feel differently as they worked on

While on the recent Stampin’ UP! trip to Thailand Stampin’ UP! had this amazing Inspiration Room that had the new holiday catalog product on display and a few samples featuring the new.

Welcome to sneak peak #1! Today's project is a Halloween card using items from the upcoming Stampin' Up! holiday catalog that goes live in September. When my order arrived yesterday, I couldn't wait to get my new Stampin' Up! products out and create with them. I decided to start with a Halloween project and pulled out all the new products I could use to create a Halloween card. The new Spooky Night designer series paper is featured on this card. I love the paper with the potion bottles and it was the first one I decided to play with. The paper below my card is the reverse side of the potions paper. The Spooky Night paper features Basic Black, Cajun Craze, Pumpkin Pie, and Very Vanilla colors. The stamps featured on this card are from the new Spooky Cat photopolymer stamp set. I thought the witches hat with the cobweb and spider went well with the potion bottles and decided to feature it on my card. The bat is from a new framelits set called Seasonal Tags. Come back tomorrow for sneak peak #2!

I am really pleased with my Night in Bethlehem Christmas card!!! I made this fun trifold card using the Night in Bethlehem bundle from pg 26 of the 2017 Stampin' UP! Holiday catalog, and just a few other supplies. I also kept it very simple with white, blue and champagne foil! Check back […]

My mitten projects seemed a little out of place in August and September, but it's mitten season now. It's November in the midwest, so I think we can appreciate a few more projects using "Smitten Mittens". This is probably my favorite bundle from the 2017 Holiday Catalog, and it's not just for Christmas. We are heading into another weekend of college football, so let's start with this... The mittens cut with the detailed thinlit are made even better here by piecing scraps of cardstock behind the openings. Ok, it's a little fussy...but so worth it!! It's pretty awesome in Scarlet and Gray, but you can make it in your team's colors. On a side note here, I have gotten a few questions about Boris, who was absent from the Alaska Achievers … Continue reading →

Heb jij al wat leuks gevonden in de Extravaganza? Neem zeker een kijkje wanneer je dit nog niet hebt gedaan! Er staan superleuke artikelen tussen die nu extra leuk geprijsd zijn! Have you all ready checked the Extravaganza list? Make sure to take a peek! Their is some really great stuff on the list that's now extra nicely prized! Deze set staat niet op de lijst, maar wanneer je toch een aktie bestelling plaatst, de Santa Paws stempelset is zeker voor deze kerst de moeite waard! Ik houd wel van de grappige diertjes die je in deze set vind! This set is not on the list, but keep it in mind when you'd want to order from the Extravaganza! It is so much fun to create your Christmas cards with! I just love the cute animals in this set! Vandaag ben ik gegaan voor een bijzondere achtergrond achter de stapel met diertjes. Ik ben zelf nog niet helemaal tevreden, maar wilde het resultaat al wel met jullie delen. Met een spons en inkt is een achtergrond erg leuk en verrassend snel te maken! De diertjes zelf zijn ingekleurd met de Stampin' Blend Markers. Today I went for a stunning background behind the piled animals. I'm not totally satisfied yet, but wanted to share my end result even so with you all. With a sponge and ink you can so easily and surprisingly fast create your own background! The animals are coloured with the new Stampin' Blend Markers. Bedankt voor het kijken, tot de volgende keer! Thanks for visiting, see you next time!

I love this sketch over at the TGIF Challenge. Challenges are good if you are suffering from 'I don't know what to do' syndrome. In fact I find it really hard to do a card without doing a challenge. If you have the same problems, I strongly suggest giving a challenge a go. You will find a link to quite a few challenges on my blog. I used one of the new sets in our soon to be released Holiday catty and the sketch is just perfect for this set too.
