12 Mondays of Christmas Cards Week 5 with In the Pines

 Hi Everyone,

Thanks for stopping in. I had a wonderful weekend with the Stampin' Up! On Stage at Home event and almost missed doing my 12 Mondays of Christmas Cards post. It might be a day late, but it still puts the warmth of the holidays in our homes.

I love everything about this card! I created this on my fun Stampin' Bingo night and I'm tickled at how well it turned out. One the reasons is that fantastic tree die from the Pine Wood Dies. The intricate cut outs are incredible! For added texture, I used the Dainty Diamonds 3D Embossing folder and WOW!

The In the Pines Bundle is so great. There are such wonderful textures in the stamp set and then the dies are great, especially this tree one. I love how the DSP shows through the die-cuts. 

Here is another project using the stamp set which is a 2-step stamping set. So beautiful!

This card features the 2-step stamping technique with the outline of the tree and then the inside of the tree. Can you see how much texture the card has? So beautiful!

Thanks so much for joining me today. I'm sorry that I'm a day late, but the weekend has blown my mind with the most wonderful stamping things ahead. 

If you'd like to place an order through me, I would appreciate your business. Shop my online store and use the Hostess code W4AGUGSD. With a minimum $50 order (before shipping and tax). I will send you a package of the Bird Ballad Trinkets. These trinkets are so rich and wonderful!

Thanks again for joining me today. I hope I've inspired you for your own stamping. I'd love to see what you create. I hope you share them with me.

Happy Stampin',

12 Monday's of Christmas Cards Week 4

 

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for stopping in today. This is my week 4 of the 12 Monday's of Christmas cards posts. On week 4, I just had to revisit a card I created for one of my weekly classes. We didn't do a Christmas card in class, but I did this one on my Wednesday's Facebook Live a while back.

I just can't get over how beautiful the white tree is. This tree die comes from the In the Woods Dies. It also coordinates with the Winter Woods Stamp set. 

There are so many things that make this Christmas card so special. The Best Plaid Builder Dies are incredible. You can get a 10% bundled savings with the Best Year Stamp set as well. I can't get enough of these dies! There are so many possibilities. You can see other projects featuring the Best Plaid Dies in a recent post.

Thanks so much for stopping in today for this Week 4 of Christmas Cards. I will be working hard on creating more Christmas cards for future Mondays. Do you have a stamp set you'd like me to feature? Just let me know. 

Happy Stampin',
