Hi Everyone. Today I am sharing another card from the Card Buffet last week. This was a fun Christmas card to make and fairly simple.
The stamp set is called Merry Mistletoe and the Designer Series paper is called Be Merry and they are made to go together. You can see the mini reindeer on the Cherry Cobbler dsp in the background.
Right now, the paper is on Sale as part of the Buy 3 get 1 FREE special through October. AND, the stamp set is on sale 15% off as part of World Card making day!
The paper is really great for Christmas and winter cards or scrapbook pages. There are background in Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green, and other papers with holiday images such as whimsical mittens and ornaments and trees and more.
I made a quick video to show how the card comes together.
Here is an up-close picture to show the Red Nose on one of the Reindeer. So fun and easy to do with Cherry Cobbler Enamel Shapes.
Hi Everyone! I want to tell you all about the GREAT deals going on right now for World Card Making Day! Stampin' Up! already has an October special with the Buy 3 Get 1 Free on Designer Series Paper, but for just a few days you also can take advantage of the World Card Making Day Deals as well. October 1 to 10 there are a lot of stamps on sale, as well as note-cards and envelopes, and Fast Fuse. The Stamps that they chose to put on Sale all co-ordinate with the DSP that is on Sale, so there are a lot of great things to look at. You can access the deals here for World Card Making Day.
You can see the Buy 3 get 1 Free papers here.
But I want to focus on the Fast Fuse because it is a super deal and I used to not be a fan of Fast Fuse, and I suspect that a lot of you were the same as me.
I made a video on how to best use Fast Fuse and to give some tips on how to keep it from getting clogged or stuck.
I also give some tips for Maximizing the Buy 3 get 1 Free paper special.
Check out the great stamp sets that are on sale! They are marked 15% off until October 10th.
It's important to let you know that some of these stamp sets have matching framelits, and so if you think you would want the framelits, you should NOT use this sale because if you buy the stamps and framelits as a bundle you save 10% the price of both, which is better than 15% off just the stamps. However, if you are not a die user, go ahead with this deal. Also, only some of the stamps have dies, so many are awesome deals on their own, such as Merry Mistletoe, Graceful Garden, Lots of Love and Just add text.
The note cards and envelopes make great gifts with just a few simple embellishments. You can make monogrammed note cards for family for Christmas, or teacher gifts. I stocked up on these for just this reason. Here is a past blog post where I talk about the notecards.
The paper deals are always great and there are so many to choose from! I just love the Painted Harvest and Be Merry and I picked up a couple of the Wood Textures 6 by 6, it's so great for backgrounds. And I added a couple packs of Just Add Color to use with the new product line, Stampin' Blends, that is coming out for customers soon. Demonstrators are getting there hands on this new line first so we can try it out, and then there will be a customer roll out. I will be sure to tell you all about the new Alcohol Markers when I get them soon. Mine come Friday! By the way, people who join can add them as part of their starter kits if you are interested. let me know! I would be happy to answer all your questions.
Now, go check out those deals!!
Today is the last day to take advantage of these World Card Making Day Deals!! Don't miss out on great products like the Tin of Card kit or the Envelope Punch Board! Contact me with any questions or click the SHOP button under the blog header to start shopping!
Did you know that October 1st is World Card making day? It is! And its a great day to make and send a card to someone you are thinking about! I was reminded just this week how special it is to receive cards. My husband's father passed away recently and he received a couple cards in the mail, one from the hospice facility that was caring for his dad, and one from a member of the men's group at church. He was surprised to receive them and was really touched. He said 'you know, I think I'm a believer in this card sending thing.' Kinda funny coming from a man whose wife makes cards for a living, but these cards really touched him and he has them on his desk still a week later, Who can you send a card to? I bet there are lots of people who would love a little note just saying "Hi" or thinking of you! and of course, Happy Birthday!!
There are some fun Deals going on right for World Card making day! Selected styles of Designer Series paper is Buy one get one FREE for the month of October!
And, a selection of items is on sale just for World Card Making Day, October 1st through the 5th.
