Blog hopping with the Crazy Crafters!


Hello!

Guess what! Today I will be hopping with Kylie Bertucci's ! What an amazing honor! I was lucky enough to win a top 10 position in Kylie's International Blog Highlights!

Oh, how I love this time of year! With the new Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalogue out, I can officially kick of my Christmas projects! If you want to send a handmade card to your friends and family this Christmas, NOW is the time to start!

Today I'm sharing one of the cards we created in my Stampin' with Mel Cardmaking Class!
I simply love the Merry Medley Background stamp from Stampin' Up!'s NEW Holiday Catalogue and decided to use it in a different way!



 Emerald Envy and Real Red work perfectly together!
I also used this colour combination and the Merry Medley stamp on another card!



Red, Green and Gold! Classic Christmas!


My Product List




Notes
  • Remember to use an Embossing Buddy before adding your Versamark ink and Stampin' Emboss Powder! Nothing worse than having your embossing powder go all over the place, especially when stamping greetings!
  • I found the best way to adhere the Burlap ribbon  was with Fast Fuse adhesive. Apply your adhesive to the paper and then your ribbon to the adhesive.
  • I keep a tiny glass jar for all my left over sequins from previous card kits and normally add sequins from there.
I would love to hear from you! Please feel free to leave a comment!

Don't forget to keep on hopping...!

Merry Medley ft Peaceful Pines - Sneak Peek from Stampin' Up!'s upcoming Holiday Catalogue!

Hello!

Yes I am going start sharing more and more Christmas card ideas with you! Stampin' Up!'s NEW Holiday Catalogue goes live on the 1st of September 2016 and what I love most about it , is the stamps that go with dies from the Annual Catalogue! And the builder punches! So many new products - I am certain there will be something in there for all of you! Today I'm using the lovely Merry Medley background stamp with an oldie  but goodie that was carried over to our Annual Catalogue ( the Peaceful Pines Bundle)!



What a beautiful background the Merry Medley stamp makes!


The Peaceful Pines Bundle is still a winner!

My Product List




Notes

  • Emerald Envy (one of our new In-colours for 2016-2018) work beautifully with Real Red for a traditional Christmas combination!
  • This is a simple but striking card and easy to create in bulk! I do think one can go very far with the Merry Medley background stamp and I hope to share some of my ideas with you in upcoming posts!
Another quick and easy Christmas card! 

I wish the best for you during this new week!

Take care!
