Another cool card using the Embellished Ornaments Bundle that will be part of the Door Buster Sale tomorrow, Monday, November, 21st.

This card uses heat embossing, masking and sponge daubers for coloring.  Scroll down for the details on how this card was made.

First, I stamped the long skinny ornament from the Embellished Ornaments stamp set in Versamark Ink, covered it with White Stampin' Emboss Powder and heat set it. I then stamped the image on copy paper and cut it out to create a mask. 

I placed the mask over my embossed ornament and stamped the wide ornament in Soft Sky ink over part of it so it appears that the wide ornament is behind the skinny ornament.

I then took two quarter sheets of Whisper White and die cut the solid long skinny ornament out of one and the solid wide ornament out of the other.  I placed the negative space of the long skinny ornament die cut over the embossed image and used my Sponge Daubers with Solft Sky and Island Indigo inks to rub color over the embossed ornament to add the color. I rubbed a paper towel over this to remove any ink on the embossed part.

I then placed the negative space of the wide ornament die cut over the wide stamped ornament and added a bit of shading with Island Indigo ink to the left edge.

I added some Silver Sparkle Dazzling Details to the holly berries for a bit of shine.

The greeting was double stamped, meaning that I stamped it in Soft Sky, then used my Stamp-a-ma-jig to over stamp it slightly offset in Island Indigo.

This was one of our club projects back in November.  We used the Kraft Tag a Bag Gift Bags and created these amazing gift card holders.

How to:
*Place the bottom of the bag along the 3" line of your Stampin' Trimmer and score.
*Fold this up to create the double pouch, one for the greeting and one for the gift card.
*Cut a piece of Whisper White and one of the patterns from the Holidays Fancy Foil Designer Vellum to 4-3/4 x 2-1/2, layer them together and attach to the front of the folded up bag where shown.
*Stamp the "making spirits bright" greeting from the Among the Branches set and crop with the 2" Circle Punch.  Add this to a 2-3/8 Scallop Circle cropped from our Silver Foil Sheets. 
*Lay a strip of Tear & Tape Adhesive across the printed vellum and add a strip of the White Glitter Ribbon, then tie a piece of Silver Cording Trim around the whole thing to keep it closed.

Cut a piece of Whisper White to 4-5/8 x 4, use the Curvy Corner Trio Punch on two of the corners on one of the long sides.  Stamp your greetings in Night of Navy.  I chose the "Merry Christmas" greeting from the Flurry of Wishes stamp set and the other two fun greetings from the B.Y.O.P. stamp set designed specifically with gift card giving in mind.

Here are the other two I made using the other two patterns in the Holidays Fancy Foil Designer Vellum.  The Foil Vellum, the Real Red & Garden Green 1/8" Striped Ribbon and the Gold & White 3/8" Glitter Ribbon are part of the Year End Sale and are discounted!!

Thankfully the Embellished Ornaments Bundle isn't on this list.  I used both the Embellished Ornaments stamp set and coordinating Delicate Ornament Thinlits for this card.

I know you are wondering how I did the gorgeous shading behind the die cut silver ornament and you won't believe how easy it is.

I stamped my Whisper White layer with the holly and berries stamp in Smoky Slate and my greeting in Elegant Eggplant.

For the ornament, I die cut one of the solid ornaments from a quarter sheet of Whisper White cardstock.  I placed the negative image over my stamped layer and used sponge daubers to add Elegant Eggplant and Wisteria Wonder to the ornament space.

Then I die cut a coordinating detailed ornament out of Silver Foil Sheets and added it over the sponged ornament.  Easy Peasy!!

I layered this onto Elegant Eggplant and then onto a Wisteria Wonder card base.

The berries were "colored" with our Silver Sparkle Dazzling Details.

The bow Builder PUnch is part of the online Extravaganza and is 50% off.  This awesome punch is only $9!!  Did you know that you can create more than bows with this punch?  Well, you Can!!

Here is one idea for you.....a Christmas Light bulb!  Yep, the Bow Builder Punch can be used to create Christmas Lights in any color.  I added my bulbs to these super cute Hershey's Nugget Treats.  These are the perfect gift for all those people on your list that you want to thank but can't spend too much to do so.

The bulb is created by cropping the pieces in the color of your choice, and then trimming the largest piece to resemble the bulb.  Here's a visual for you:

I colored the base of the bulb with a Gold Sharpie Marker and added the detail with our White Stampin' Chalk Marker.

I used various strips of Designer Series Paper from the Home for Christmas Pack.  The strips are cut to 1" x 3", wrapped around the Nuggets and secured with a Glue Dot. 

The little tray the chocolates are sitting in is 2" x 4" and scored 1/4" down each long side.  fold up the tray, add two strips of Tear & Tape Adhesive to secure the chocolates.  I purchased the 2" x 10" bags online.

The tag is stamped in Mossy Meadow and I used the A Little Something stamp set.  This is one of the items that will be retiring out of the Holiday Catalog so get it while you can.  The tag was die cut from the Tags & Labels Framelits set.

Woo hoo!!  Here are some alternate uses for those leftover Spider Web Doilies you might have from your Halloween projects.  What, you didn't purchase them for your Halloween projects, well now you WILL need some!!

You can trim them to create a number of fun medallions.

Then you can flip them over to use the white side and color them with a sponge and ink or press them into your Versamark pad and coat them with any color of embossing powder. 

You can even use them as masks and either sponge over them or use your Stampin' Spritzer to sprtiz your favorite colors over them.

Flip them over and use the whole thing as a snowflake!

I hope you enjoyed these little tips and tricks, you can purchase your own Spider Web Doilies in my store!

I received a card like this in a swap on my recent Founder's Circle Trip and thought it was so cool, I had to use it in my clubs last month.

The card uses the NEW Lighthearted Leaves stamp set shown in the Holiday Catalog on page 44.  It coordinates with the Leaflets Framelits in the Annual Catalog on page 172.

I started by embossing my images with Black Embossing Powder.  Then I poured a bit of bleach in a glass jar and used an old Aqua Painter to apply the bleach where I wanted the card stock to lighten.  Super easy!!!

My wood Celebrate element was added to a strip of Corrugated Paper and I added some of the Gold Cord Trim to the back of the strip for some added interest.

Today is the last day to shop this set of Weekly Deals.  Get them at 25% off while you can!!

The latest addtion to our Big Shot line of super cute boxes and bags dies is the Square Pillow Box Thinlits Die.

You can cut pillow boxes in record time with this set of dies and the Big Shot. Add windows and accents with the extra dies, that are included in the set. Finished boxes make unique packaging for gift cards, 3" x 3" cards, and small treats and gifts.

I had some fun creating this adorable Halloween Treat Box.  I used Rich Razzleberry Cardstock for the box and decorated it with some of the extra dies included in this set.  The trio of pumpkins is a die along with the clipped square I stamped the greeting on.  Speaking of the greeting, Stampin' Up! has designed the perfect stamp set to coordinate with this die set.  It's called A Little Something and you can purchase the die set and the stamp set in a Bundle, saving you 15%.

• A Little Something Wood-Mount Bundle [140858]
• A Little Something Clear-Mount Bundle [140859]

I stamped the box with the spider background stamp from the A Little Something stamp set.  I cut a Spider Web doily in half and attached it to the box.  The greeting piece was run through the Big Shot with the trio of pumpkins die and again with other colors so I could add colored pumpkins.  My ribbon knot was leftover from my Founder's Circle Swaps so it was already tied!!

I will be arriving in St. George, Utah around 1:00 this afternoon and I cannot wait to see all my Stampin' Up! friends, we are gonna have a blast!!  Thursday night, we have our Swap & Share event.  I created 110 cards to swap during this event and I cannot wiat to show you all the wonderful items I will be bringing home.  Be sure to check my FACEBOOK PAGE as I will be uploading lots of pictures there. 

Here are, my Founder's Circle Swaps.  Since I made 110 of these, if I never tie another knot, it will be too soon!!

These 110 cards needed:

220 passes through the Big Shot (110 with the Woodland Folder and 110 to create the thin Pumpkin Pie circle.
550 punches (330 Banners, 220 2-1/2 Circles)
550 Stampin' Dimensionals - I have dimensional backing papers everywhere!!
110 Fussy cut bears
110 Hand tied ribbon knots
330 stamped images

I used the adorable Thankful Forest Friends stamp set and the baby wipe technique.  I folded two baby wipes in half and added drops of Pumpkin Pie, Rich Razzleberry and Old Olive inks to create a multi-colored stamp pad.

The bears were stamped in Early Espresso and fussy cut out.  I also added the small leaf sprig to the Old Olive Banner.


The greeting was stamped onto Whisper White, I punched it out with the 2-1/2" Circle Punch and adhered it behind the tree embossed layer.
