Jolly Lip Balms

 I stumbled on a Lip Smackers Holiday pack and finished these Lip Balms for Mistletoe Madness!  I unearthed this Santa image and Punch!  Colored Santa with Blends and added this Jolly Sentiment.

Various Designer paper decorates the holders.  These make Great Stocking Stuffers!  Flavors are listed on a slip of paper in the package.

SHOP for Lip Balms and MORE at Mistletoe Madness!  Gamber Connumity Center 11/6-7.  

Creative Celebrations

 I should always check product availability but alas I did NOT!  I have been crafting NON stop and cracked open the Festive Flecks cards and envelopes.  Peaceful Pine is such a Great new IN color and perfect for the Holidays.  Peaceful Pine card stock should be available 11/9.  I cut each of the 10 card bases in half because I love these little dots and did not want to waste them on the BACK of a card.  Then Cut Peaceful Pine card bases so now I can add Designer paper or emboss.  Today I added paper.

I cut this scene from a sheet of paper and grabbed this Reindeer from the embellishment sheet.  The Trees are from a retired set and were cut from Peaceful Pine.  Super simple card! 

168499 $13.00  Creative Celebrations is unavailable until 11/23.  This paper has some unexpected colors.  I love that SU lists the colors on their Designer paper packs:

Festive Flecks Mix and Match cards and envelopes  168500  $10.00  These are AVAILABLE NOW!!!  

Here is another pattern from the Creative Celebrations paper.  I added Secret Sea as a Layer and stamped the Sentiment in the Wreath,  Popped up this floral spray from the embellishment sheet.  

See these cards and MORE on the racks this weekend at Mistletoe Madness!!  Come shop with me in Lee's Summit!  4 SE Independence Ave.  

Heat Embossing Holiday Cards

 I rarely Heat Emboss these days because it is time consuming and my Versamark ink pads were old!  I'm here to tell you to GET A NEW Versamark stamp pad!  You will not regret the purchase!  No ink stains and lots of STICKY!  Embossing needs the sticky so get a NEW Stamp pad!  102283  $9.50 or Refresh a current pad with a ink Refill  102193  $7.00.

Here are the cards I created:

I used Retired Stamp sets and Sentiments.  These are 2 of my Keeper Stamp sets.  You can Mix and Match these sets for a NEW look!  The Card Bases are from the October Paper Pumpkin kit!  When I saw the Paper Pattern I was reminded of a beautiful Damask fabric.  The Die Cut pieces from the kit have Metallic accents, perfect for an embossed image!  

Basic Beige is a color in the kit so the card bases are Basic Beige,  Images were embossed in GOLD and the Star is Bronze.  Sentiments were stamped in Soft Suede.  

Stampin' Up! has a NEW stamp set very Similar called Rejoice.  Check it out!  168560  $21.00

Last Sleep before Mistletoe Madness….

 I had hoped to share a picture of my booth for tomorrow but forgot to take a picture!  Hope to see lots of familiar faces at this 2 day event.  10/31 9-6pm and 11/1 9-4pm.  Gamber Community Center Lees Summit MO.  

I will also have some Fall and Halloween items on sale!  

Holly Jolly Embossing folder

 This new item just arrived and I had to make some cards for Mistletoe Madness this weekend.  Here are a few samples that will be on the card rack this Friday 9-6 and Saturday 9-4pm.  Gamber Community Center, Lees Summit Mo.  

I used Real Red card bases and Garden Green for the Holly.  This is so easy!!  The Die settles inside the Hybrid embossing folder and cuts and embosses in 1 pass!  Add a sentiment and you are done!  I added some shear ribbon to this first card.

I colored the Berries with a Real Red marker.  You could use Blends and even those shiny Stickles!  But let them dry thoroughly or they will Stick!

I grabbed a piece of Granny Apple Green for this landscape card.

And finally a hint, glue down your Holly Panel and then go around and color and lift some leaves.  Only place glue around the edges so your Holly can lift!

166119  $41.00
