A Paws Gift Tag

In case you haven’t noticed this about me…..I love animals.  Pretty much any animal, except the nasty, creepy ones. And dogs and cats are my favorite.  So when I made the pizza box of gift tags the other day.  You can see it HERE.  I decided that I needed some animal gift tags.  I give Christmas gifts to the animals of my friends and neighbors too.  Doesn’t everyone???  So this is one of the dog ones that I made.

I think this turned out very cute.  Sort of a Doggy Rudolph.  I could not resist giving him a red nose when I was coloring the hat.  The coloring is done with the Stampin’ Blends.  I love those guys!!!

The tag is made with the Scalloped Tag Topper Punch.  That is one punch that I hope Stampin’ Up! keeps for a very long time.  It is so versatile.  I think this tag will dress up my doggy treats very well this holiday season.

Thank you so much for stopping by today!  I hope you will consider adding some tag making to your holiday stamping.  It is so much fun and you can accomplish quite a lot in a short period of time.

The supplies I used are listed below the monthly specials.  Please check those out as well.  There is still time for you to reserve your Stamparatus!

Santa Card with a Twist

Before I get into  my card for today, I have a Wonderful Announcement!!!  Today Stampin’ Up! is doing another full day of FREE SHIPPING !!  Woohoo and Happy Dance!!!  Merry Christmas from Stampin’ Up!

I have a super cute card for you today!!  It is not a new technique, but it is the first one I have made.   And don’t be like me…. I thought it would be really time consuming to make and a little difficult.  It is neither of those bad things.  Here it is!

Isn’t this just too cute?  I was playing with the Santa’s Suit stamp set and the idea of Santa dressing or undressing just seemed appropriate.  Then I notice the “good night” and that decided that he was undressing. I was so happy with how it turned out.  And I think Santa ending his night and getting undressed was just perfect for the four sections.  A touch of Christmas whimsy I think.

I stamped Santa and his clothing with the Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored them with the Stampin’ Blends.  I really love those markers!!

I cannot take credit for the technique used here.  There are several videos out there on how to make the inside work.  The best one that I found was “Maymay Made It… Twist Pop-Up Card Tutorial.  Her instructions are super easy to follow.  So I hope you will give it a shot.

Thank you for stopping by today!  I hope you will check out each of the specials running below and especially the Stamparatus!  The supplies I used are listed at the bottom of the page.  Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

Eastern Beauty Birthday

I have another Birthday card for you today!  As I mentioned earlier in the week, I have been behind even on my birthday cards to send out.  I hate that.  But this card is a super flexible layout.  This layout would work for any type of card needed.  All you would need to do is change out the sentiment and maybe add some other accessories.  Here is the simple version for today.

I just adore the entire suite of Eastern Beauty!  The designer series paper is some of the prettiest that Stampin’ UP! has and the stamp set is one of the most versatile.  As you can see from this layout, it does as I mentioned at the top of the post.  It would work with pretty much any sentiment and DSP.

I mentioned yesterday about the new STAMPARATUS and want to repeat that information .  Oh my, it is the cat’s meow of stamp positioners.  I was on my trip when it was debuted and the first reservation period came.  But from now to December 30 you can reserve one for yourself.  They will begin shipping in March on a first ordered, first shipped fashion.  And they will be available in the 2018 Annual Catalog in June.  I cannot wait that long though!!  For you to reserve your own, go to my website and log in with your account information.  Then click on the reservation button under the Stamparatus icon.  You can reserve your product now and will not be charged until it ships.  There are several videos and other sneak peeks out there for you to checkout.  I apologize that my technical difficulties are not allowing me to add that for you here.  I hope that will be remedied soon.

 

Thank you so much for visiting today!!  I greatly appreciate your visits and comments.  If you have any questions, please do no hesitate to contact me.

Today’s post is a day late due to technical difficulties.  But no worries.  We are back on track!  This is a super fun and easy gift for anyone.  I have made several to give as Hostess gifts either for stamping parties or when we are invited to someone’s home for the holidays.  I hope you will like the idea.

Can you see how quick and easy a gift this would be?  I have a few more to go in the box but only photographed the four.  You can fit about eight easily in the box.  And this is almost a no difficulty type project.  The pizza box comes ready to fold into place.  The stamp set matches perfectly the Everyday Label Punch.  And the larger label is from the Lots of Labels Framelits.  A win/win/win !! Woohoo:)

Thank you for stopping by today and I really do hope you will consider this type of handmade item as a great Hostess gift for your friends.

Wise Men

Good morning everyone!!  I am happy to say that I am still feeling good and I have another new Christmas card to share.

This one is from the Wise Men From Afar stamp set.  I wanted a quick and simple for a beginner card class and this is very easy.

COLOR COMBINATION:

The Night of Navy just seemed the perfect choice for this card base and the Wise Men.  Sahara Sand is great complement color and the Crushed Curry is just the touch of brightness that I felt it needed.

As I said, this is just a super quick and easy card to stamp.  It is definitely a perfect card to do at a card buffet or beginner class.  Or just for a quick and easy card to make multiples of.  I hope you will give it a try.

Thank you for visiting today.  I hope you have a super day!!
