Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees Walk in the Forest Christmas Card

Posted on November 24, 2023 by stampsnlingers

Good morning and happy Black Friday!! Are you still a little full from yesterday’s dinner? I know I am – and I can still smell the smoker when I walk by it – which makes me want another bite of ham. How can I still be full AND want a bite of ham?! 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Being Black Friday – there’s lots of good sales on and if you’ll read on after you check out today’s card – you’re going to see the Black Friday sale at Stamp-N-Storage, too! It’s a good ‘un! 🙂

So – card! This is a Christmas card with no front sentiment. Have you made any of those? I don’t do it a lot – but it’s fun every once in a while and sometimes a design really lends itself to that. This one, with some pretty paper from A Walk in the Forest DSP (retiring soon!) and trees die cut from that paper using the Merriest Trees die set (carrying over – along with the coordinating stamp set!) – makes for a quick and easy card! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ UP! Alphabet Perennial Painted Lavender Sneak Peek Thank You

Posted on November 22, 2023 by stampsnlingers

Hey guys! Happy Thanksgiving-eve! Are you doing all the cooking and prepping today? I’m getting BOTH my pressure cookers fired up for potatoes, making pimento cheese and deviled eggs and a pumpkin dessert. And Brussels Sprouts – using a recipe we had at our retreat (they’re so yummy that people who said – “I HATE brussels sprouts” went back for seconds!!). So – busy day!

Since I promised that our Thursday videos would showcase a new pretty from the Jan-Apr 2024 Mini Catalog…but we’re not DOING a video tomorrow – I decided to give you a sneaky look TODAY! And – I even did a short video, too!

For this one – we’re looking at the Painted Lavender Suite – the Painted Lavender stamp set and Perennial Postage bundle (one of my favoritest new things!). And the Painted Lavender DSP is…simply…stunning! Oh – and I used the Alphabet A La Mode dies from the 2023-24 Annual Catalog, too! Take a look-see:

Stampin’ Up! Stars Divine Christmas Ornaments with Video Tutorial

Posted on November 19, 2023 by stampsnlingers

Happy Sunday, y’all! I hope your weekend is going well!

At our retreat a few weeks ago, two talented ladies brought beautiful Christmas ornament projects for us to make! I gave y’all a peek at them and when I got requests to show how to make them… I decided that was a great idea!

I’ve got two designs for you – both made pretty much the same way, with slightly different decorations. One showcases the Stars at Night Hybrid Embossing Folder dies and the other the Nativity die from the Night Divine die set. BOTH use the now-retired (SOO sorry!) Shining Brightly Specialty DSP. Take a look-see:
