Christmas in July

Hello Stamping Friends,

Still at Convention.  Having a fabulous time and have some great ideas and projects to share with all of you but just running out of time each day to update you all right now.  So please be patient and I will share a ton with you once I get home and get settled.

Today at Sisters in Stamping we are continuing our tour through the catalog.  This week's stop is the Seasonal Celebrations (aka holiday) section.  Never too early to start thinking of Christmas cards!  So sit back and enjoy all we have to offer this week.  Get those brain gears spinning and thinking of your own Christmas cards.



I made this card at a couple of workshops last week and everyone loved it. They were asking who was making this one so they didn't duplicate it.  It uses the Rejoicing with You set found on page 21 of the 2012-2013 Catalog.  It is such an easy set to use.  And it looks really great embossed (just my opinion, but I really think it does).  I used crumb cake cardstock for the base (I know it's a tad hard to tell in the photo) and then stamped the En Francais background stamp on a piece of Cherry Cobbler.

The banner piece is from the great new Specialty Designer Series Paper called Natural Composition. The picture here and the catalog don't let you really see how awesome this paper is.  The design on each piece is embossed. So many cook techniques you can accomplish with it.  I promise you will be seeing a lot more of this in the future.

Don't forget to head over to Sisters in Stamping for even more great ideas using the Seasonal Celebrations section of the catalog.
