  • Stampin' Up! Detailed with Love Stamp Set
  • Tin Tile Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder
  • Which stamp sets will carry over from the Holiday catalog?
  • A new Stamparatus Bag coming soon

Stampin' Up! Detailed with Love 


I had to show you yet another beautiful swap card I received while in Orlando.  I'm still enjoying the swaps I received even though its been a full week since I've been home.  This swap was received in one of the organized swaps I was in.  It was created by Sandy MacFarlain  from Monument, Colorado.  I was blown away by the beauty of this card.  It uses the Detailed with Love stamp set.  Just holding it in your hands makes you feel special.  I'm so grateful for the time my fellow demonstrators devoted to creating these wonderful cards.   It shows such a range of ideas.         

  



This card uses the our Copper Foil Sheets and the Tin Tile Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder.  The drama from this card is created using running a Black Stazon ink pad across the surface of your embossed foil sheet and the drying the surface with our heat tool.  Great new!  The Tin Tile Dynamic Textured Embossing Folder will carry over to the next catalog.  Add it to your Wish List now while your thinking about it.  

   


The embossed Copper Foil Sheet is mounted on a Basic Black Base card.  It has a clear window that shows the I love you stamped on the inside of the card.  The sentiment in the Ovals is from the Detailed with Love stamp set and it is cut using the Ovals from the Stitched Shapes Framelit Dies.   
   
Stampin' Up! posted a list of Holiday Catalog items recently that had received higher-than-forecasted demand and were sold out, as well as several items with low inventory.  If you've had your eye on any items from the Holiday catalog, make sure you order soon.  Take a look at other sets and dies available in the Stampin' Up! Main Catalog as well as the Holiday Catalog.

Also, these items from the Holiday catalogs will carry over, which means your investment in these sets will extend beyond the holidays.  There may be more carry overs, but we know about these for certain.

Two looks using the Stampin' Up! Peaceful Place Stamp Set

  • Stampin' Up Peaceful Place
  • Which stamp sets will carry over from the Holiday catalog?
  • Join us for this weekend's Holiday card class

Stampin' Up! Peaceful Place Scenes 


Today I'm feeling lazy.  So instead of creating a couple of cards with the new stamp sets from the Occasions Catalog  I received last week at Stampin' Up!'s On Stage event, I decided to show you a couple more of the beautiful swap cards I received.        

  



Both cards use the Peaceful Place stamp set.  I love how the two cards show how differently this set can look depending on the treatment used.  

   
Peaceful Place Stamp Set creates a Fall theme
 with a sponged background and Gold Foil Leaf


This card has a beautifully sponged background in fall colors.  Then the image is stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black.  The water is highlighted with Wink of Stella to provide a shimmer to the scene.  To the side of the sentiment is a die cut gold foil leaf, adding to the over all fall look of this card.  Its a beautiful card to use for a fall holiday or to stay in touch with loved ones over Thanksgiving. 
   


Monochromatic Card idea
Peaceful Place stamp set embossed in Black on Smoky Slate Cardstock


This same Peaceful Place stamp set, embossed in Black on Smoky Slate,  and accented with 1/2" Black Satin Ribbon and Black Sequins from the Metallic Sequins Assortment takes on a very classy look.  Perfect for a male relative, or a friend who has suffered a setback of some sort.  This monochromatic card uses Smoky Slate, Basic Black and Basic Gray Cardstock

Both cards are stunning in their own way.  I wish I could give attribution to the lovely designers of these cards, but neither included contact information about themselves. 

    
Take a look at other sets and dies available in the Stampin' Up! Main Catalog and the Holiday Catalog,  Then, order your holiday stamp sets and dies soon.  Several Fall and Christmas sets and accessories have already sold out,  so you'll want to place your order while your favorites are still available.

Also, during On Stage last week, we learn which items from the Holiday catalogs will carry over, which means your investment in these sets will extend beyond the holidays.  There may be more carry overs, but we know about these for certain.

Join us for a crafty afternoon of making holiday cards this Sunday afternoon, November 18.  You'll leave with these 6 cards to use as samples to create more cards for your ever-growing list of friends and family.  As a crafter you know they won't settle for a Facebook Messenger Wave, a few holiday emojis at the end of a text, or a store bought card.  They know you're a crafter and they are looking for a card from you they'll be proud to display this holiday season.

Do it the easy way.  Come make cards where all the cutting is done for you.  Class is Sunday afternoon, November 18.  You'll leave with these lovely samples to use to create more cards on your own.

You'll get a chance to try several different products, punches, dies and techniques to add to your crafting skills.    

You'll love creating these cards and then sharing your creativity with others when you mail these wonderful Fall and Holiday cards.
