You're going to be seeing quite a few Reindeer Fun Christmas cards from me this year. This bundle is part of the Reindeer Days suite, being released on 4th September, and it is hands-down my favourite new Christmas offering. For this week's blog hop, I am sharing a card made with the cutest-ever dies from Stampin' Up! The three layering dies stack to make a reindeer head. I've also used the delightful Reindeer Days Designer Series Paper, for some added cuteness. I just LOVE cardinals, so had to feature a row of these beautiful birds. We don't have cardinals in Australia, but I've been lucky enough to see them in the US (along with hummingbirds, woodpeckers and roadrunners!). Check out the gorgeous Pool Party 5/8" Pom Pom Ribbon, that I used to make my bow. It's coming out on 4th September, too. Here's a close-up of the little reindeer head, that makes me smile every time I look at it. I die-cut the base layer from Early Espresso card, the middle layer from Basic White card, and the top layer from Pecan Pie card. I cut an extra nose (using the base layer die) from Real Red card, and inlaid it into the Basic White piece. I couldn't resist adding some (retired) Shimmery Crystal Effects to the nose. To the ears, I added a little colour using my Light Petal Pink Stampin' Blends marker. The bow was cut from Real Red card. Once assembled, the cute little reindeer head was mounted on a Basic White circle, and a larger Pool Party circle, both created with Spotlight on Nature Dies. The Pool Party card panel behind the circles was decorated with a stamp from Reindeer Fun, in Pool Party ink. I also sponged the edges of this card piece, and the DSP layer, with Pool Party ink. Hopefully you won't get sick of me using the Peaceful Season bundle for my Christmas sentiments this year. It's a goodie! I stamped "Merry" on Real Red card, using Versamark ink, then heat-embossed it with white embossing powder. "Christmas" was stamped in Real Red ink on Basic White card. I used co-ordinating dies to cut out both words.

Snowy Wonder is the new bundle with its stamp set and dies and there's some coordinating Snowy Scenes DSP. There's also a new, Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder.

Welcome to a Week 18 of the Colour Creations Showcase blog hop. This week we continue our journey through the remaining Stampin' Up! core colours, working in alphabetical order, with this week's feature colour being Coastal Cabana. Coastal Cabana is a member of the Brights colour group and is classified as a Blue-Green colour. Once again I have used this opportunity to create another Christmas card as well as have a play with another new bundle of products soon to be available after September 4th. This time it's the Decorative Trees bundle and I have chosen to pair Coastal Cabana with Pretty Peacock, White and touches of Copper. The paper attached to the card base is what I would term the reverse side of one of the pieces of the Nests of Winter DSP and features Coastal Cabana. I have simply just sponged the edges of this. Next a piece of White card has been randomly stamped in Coastal Cabana using the small star bundle stamp from the Decorative Trees stamp. The card has then been embossed using the Snowflake Sky 3D embossing folder (apologies for it's prolific use lately but it just seems to suit the cards best). For the two outer trees, the outline and foliage have been stamped using Pretty Peacock ink and the Decorative Trees stamps. These have then been die cut using the dies from the Decorative Trees dies. For the central tree the outline is also in Pretty Peacock but the sentiment, also from the same stamp set, and the foliage have this time been embossed in White. Each of the trees is decorated using the Oxidized Copper Specialty Paper, for the stars, baubles, garlands and other decorations. The dies for each of these are from the Decorative Trees Dies. As so many of these are fine the Oxidized Copper paper was attached to Adhesive Sheets to make it easier to adhere to the tree. Hopefully this photo shows the variation in the Oxidized Copper paper with its shine and matte areas. Finally a few Copper Adhesive Backed Metallic Gems were added. Next in tonight's blog hop is our lovely host Cathy Proctor. I look forward to seeing her lovely creation this week. If the "next" button link is not working or you would like to see a full list of participants then you can hop over to our host Cathy Proctor where you can see a full list of tonight's participants. It is quite possible that this might be my last Colour Creations blog post for the year as I am about to pack up my crafting supplies to go into storage for preparation to move to our new home in Regional Victoria. As always if you live in Australia and would like to know more about Stampin' Up! or would like to purchase some of the products then click on the Facebook tab at the top of the page and send me a message. As always enjoy your week.Theresa
