Holiday Creativity

with Stampin' Up!

Hi Everyone,

I hope this time of year finds you sipping hot cocoa and adding that bit of peppermint to it. I love this time of year because it seems more special to hold that hot mug of goodness. Today I wanted to share with you a way to go a little further in creating and being creative with stamping. When creating a card, sometimes you can stare at your cardstock and go blank. You struggle with a layout and it can be discouraging. I have found that creating a tag can help get your creativity started. Tags are smaller and more focused. Once you have a tag created like the one above (isn't it fantastic)? you can expand to your card. This cute tag was created using the Stanta's Sleigh bundle. This is a wonderful bundle that makes it easy to be creative. This tag was created quickly and has a lot of wow. 

It's super easy to step up this tag by using the Foil Snowflakes from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog which is soon to be retired and then mount the tag onto the card front. I stamped a cute holly stamp on the background of the Real Red base. I also changed the ribbon at the top to the Red Tinsel ribbon also in the Holiday Catalog and on sale through the rest of the month.

Thanks for stopping in. I hope you get inspired to create and share. It's a great time to jump into your wishlist with my Mystery Grab Bag opportunity. Be sure to check it out.
