Happy Monday. Hope your week is off to a good beginning. Today I’m sharing the make ‘n take, A Snowman Merry Christmas, from the recent Stamping Bingo. The Snowman Season Bundle along with the coordinating Let It Snow Specialty Designer Series Paper pair beautifully to create the card. The Snowman Season Bundle contains the Snowman Season Stamp Set and the coordinating Snowman Builder Punch. Do you notice the sparkle of the snowman on the card? It’s actually cut from the Let It Snow Specialty Designer Series Paper. I just love it when designer series paper contains images that coordinate with a punch or die.
Steps for recreating the Snowman Merry Christmas card:
Start with a standard card base of Coastal Cabana cardstock.
Cut a 5-1/2″ x 3-1/2″ piece of the striped paper from the Let It Snow Specialty Designer Series Paper.
With the snowflake stamp from the Snowman Season Stamp Set, randomly stamp snowflakes on the Designer Series Paper using Coastal Cabana Stampin’ Pad. Then, layer onto a 5-1/2″ x 3-3/4″ piece of Real Red cardstock.
Next, wrap a piece of Real Red 3/8″ Cotton Ribbon around lower portion of card and tie a knot.
Attach to the Coastal Cabana card base with adhesive.
With the Snowman Builder Punch, cut the glitter snowman from the Let It Snow Specialty Designer Series Paper. Notice also that one of the Designer Series Papers has the hat that matches with the punch. Also, punch the hat. Use a scrap of Basic Black cardstock to cut the snowman arms. Assemble the snowman using glue dots and attach to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Stamp the Merry Christmas sentiment onto a scrap of Whisper White cardstock. Cut the sentiment and the Coastal Cabana scalloped oval using the Layering Ovals Dies. Adhere the sentiment to the scalloped oval and attach to the card front over the Real Red ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
See how easy it is to make a card with coordinating stamps, punches and paper! Hope you will give it a try. The Snowman Season Bundle and coordinating Let It Snow Specialty Designer Series Paper is great for Christmas. But don’t stop using it at Christmas! It’s also great for Winter Themed cards and crafts.

Happy Friday everyone! Hopefully you survived Halloween. It was a quiet evening at our house. Our neighborhood doesn’t have trick or treaters so I got cozy and enjoyed a Hallmark Christmas movie. Now, I’m definitely in the mood for Christmas! In my last post, you were able to see components of the new Christmastime Is Here Product Suite. Today my project, a beautiful Christmas Rose, uses products from the suite. The beautiful Christmas Rose is cut from the Christmastime Is Here Specialty Designer Series Paper. Best of all, no fussy cutting required as the Roses Dies match the large rose in the designer series paper. This simple card design is to highlight the Christmastime Is Here Specialty Designer Series Paper and show that you can create “wow” looking cards using just the paper, a stamped sentiment and a couple embellishments.
The Christmastime Is Here Specialty Designer Series Paper is gorgeous with gold foil accents. Be sure to place your order for your favorite products from the Christmastime Is Here product suite soon.

I’m back and featuring a fun Fall Gift Tag project. It’s one of those projects that appears to be more difficult than it is. Did you miss me? Last week was one of those weeks!!! The week began great with Stampin’ Bingo on Monday but after a fun filled day, the things seem to so haywire. At times I felt like I was a hamster in a wheel, going round and round but not advancing! I think we all have had such an experience at some point and it was my turn to go round and round last week. So, I decided to take a few days off with no blogging. It was refreshing to take a break. Good thing is this week has begun fantastic so I’m no longer “in the wheel” and am excited to share a project from Stampin’ Bingo.
I am a huge fan of Bath & Body Works products and often give their products as gifts. Naturally, a gift must be wrapped or embellished. So today’s product, hand soap, is bagged and embellished with a fun Fall gift tag. Since the hand soap is Pumpkin Apple, the Gather Together Bundle and the Harvest Hellos Bundle combine to fit the product’s theme.
Below is a closer view of the tag…
I just love combining the two bundles, Gather Together and Harvest Hellos. They coordinate well together. Since the name of the hand soap is Pumpkin Apple, I could have incorporated an apple instead of a pumpkin! Harvest Hellos is full of versatility.
Have fun creating a gift tag for your favorite Fall scents! The items used for today’s fun Fall gift tag are listed under Project Materials.

Happy Friday! Hope you’ve been having a good week. Fall temperatures finally arrived in Georgia so it sets the mood for Fall festivities. Today’s project, Halloween Coffin Treat Boxes, is perfect for Fall craft fairs or for giving treats to friendly Gremlins. The food safe Coffin Boxes in the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog are easy to assemble. A variety of products in the Monster Bash Suite decorate the Halloween Coffin Treat Boxes shown below.
Details for the Coffin Halloween Treat Holder on the Left:
First, texture emboss the lid using the Stylish Scroll Embossing Folder before assembling. Next, assemble the coffin top and bottom using a strong adhesive such as Tear & Tape or Mulitpurpose Liquid Adhesive. To add definition to the top, swipe the lid across the raised embossed areas using the Golden Glitz Delicata Metallic Ink Pad. Stamp the mummy and the sentiment from the Spooktacular Bash Stamp Set using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink onto a scrap of Very Vanilla cardstock. After stamping, cut using the coordinating Ornate Frames Dies. Also, use the dies to cut a scroll frame from Crushed Curry cardstock. To color the mummy, use either the Crumb Cake Stampin Write Marker or Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends. For the border, use the Light Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends. Adhere the mummy piece to the Crushed Curry frame using Snail Adhesive. With stampin’ dimensionals, add the piece to the top of the coffin. Attach sentiment and bow. Almost forgot… for a fun touch, add Assorted Googly Eyes!
Details for the Coffin Halloween Treat Holder on the Right:
Start by assembling the coffin. Turn the coffin lid upside down and place onto the Monster Bash Designer Series Paper. Then, trace around the lid. Use paper snips to cut the lid around the traced area. After cutting, sponge the edges of the designer series paper using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink. Add to the coffin lid using multipurpose liquid adhesive. TIP: the multipurpose liquid adhesive allows time to make placement adjustments. With the Ornate Frames Dies, cut a large scroll from Pumpkin Pie cardstock and a smaller scroll using Basic Black cardstock. Layer the scrolls. Stamp the sentiment onto a scrap of Very Vanilla cardstock and cut with the coordinating die. Use Stampin’ Dimensionals to attach to the layered scrolls. Embellish with Basic Rhinestone Jewels and a Black Glitter Organdy ribbon bow. Add to the coffin lid.
Isn’t that easy? And yes, you still have time to order the Coffin Treat Holders and elements for embellishing before Halloween. For a list of the materials from today’s post, check out the Project Materials list below.
