The idea still seems out of place, but I've been watching the Hallmark Channel more lately, and since the calendar flipped over to July they have magically all turned to re-runs of their Christmas movies. As our local temperatures are reaching the 90's and above it's actually kind of nice to see snow falling and actors pretending to be out in the bitter cold, maybe they were, and it was just happenstance it's part of the scene. July is actually here because happy people like ourselves need to get started on all the holiday projects, so I'm excited to say that I'm sharing a few projects this week with NEW and exciting products from Stampendous! Cookie Christmas Cling Rubber Stamp Set Cookie Christmas Die Set I know you'll be thinking that there's nothing visibly different about what you see, they are still the high-quality cling rubber stamps that Stampendous always delivers, but they are just slightly different and here's how! That Llama is so cool and if you want him and the dies or any of the other new adorbs QS and QD sets be quick about ordering them. Here's a huge tip! The Cutting dies are in limited supply so order them ASAP! Something that you may have noticed in the video is the dies leave a white "halo" around the image. Stampendous dies traditionally cut right along the edge of your stamped image, but these stamps are so much MORE heavenly with their little halos you'll want to gobble them up like Christmas Cookies to put on your projects. Stampendous is sharing so much more today and this week with their new QS and QD products. Stop by now! If you are still with me, you are a super trooper! I've got all the supplies and instructions to see how I made my card at the beginning of this post. Come back on Friday for more projects with these new sets! Supplies: I provide some product links that are through my Amazon Affiliate, and that means when clicked and purchased in the same session a few pennies are sent my way at no cost to you.
