We are counting down the final days of the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog. Many items will be gone once this catalog ends – some are on sale, some have already sold out, don’t miss out on something you wished you had. I wanted to share a few more projects with you and some of the products in the Holiday catalog.

Starting with this card that was part of one of my Holiday Stamp a Stack classes this year. It was a card idea shared by Erica Cerwin which I changed slightly. You could use any color with it – I decided on Delightful Dijon for mine. And it features the wood Snowflake Elements which are retiring from the Holiday Catalog!

Products I used on this card that are in the Holiday Catalog:
- Perfect Pines Framelits Dies pg. 16
- Snowflake Elements pg. 23
- Holly Jolly Greetings stamp set pg. 34
- Fine-Tip Glue pen pg. 43
A full list of supplies is below – just click on any item to go directly to it in my online store.

The Home for Christmas Designer Paper from the Stampin’ Up! Holiday catalog had a fun print filled with Santa’s. I used most of mine by cutting the Santa’s out and adding them to projects. This is a quick tag that I created.

Each of the different Santa’s give the tags a variety of looks. I fussy cut them out and added them with Stampin’ Dimensionals to my tag.
Cut the label with the Big Shot, add a strip of Designer paper across the bottom, stamp the top and then put Santa on with dimensionals. Punch a little hole and add some Baker’s Twine.
These will be perfect on some gifts as I finish wrapping!
Thanks for visiting.

Another tag idea for you. I love the layered vellum on this tag. I used those same framelits again too – it’s just such a nice size for a tag. The photo is just from my phone in my stamp room – so you can see a bit of my messy desk. Honestly if you waited on me to get a good photo you may never get to see this. The next 14 days we are supposed to get rain – right through Christmas and New Year – yuck. Anyway I’m just going with the photos that I have.

I cut two labels the same size one out of White card stock and one from the Vellum. I did my stamping on the white which is underneath. I pierced the vellum using the piercing template, pad and piercing tool. The front of the vellum is decorated with the die cut silver foil – Peace – some silver thread and a little word window punched with “& joy” stamped on it.
I bought some white and silver wrapping paper to use these on. I think I also have some that is silver and blue with snowmen – I think they would work with that too.
Yes this year I made tags and then went in search of wrapping paper to match. I probably should do it the other way around.
Have a nice day. I need to get on with my day.

Every month I create tags to put on order bags for my customers and this month I made several other tags designs for the holidays and also for the Watercolor Wishes fundraiser boxes. I’m going to try to share those over the next few days. So here are a couple to start with –

This one is a Merry Christmas tag – I made these for my team meeting swap. It was actually a re-do of this thank you tag that I made.

This one was for the Watercolor Wishes fundraiser – these were tied on the boxes of each kit. And I used the colors that were in the kit and my stamp set from my kit.
This label framelit makes a really nice size tag and since it has several sizes you can make layers on your tags. The banners are punched with the Triple Banner Punch from Designer Paper. Then I stapled ribbon and a little accent piece across.
Thanks for visiting.

If you need a fun way to wrap up a bag of treats for someone this holiday season – try this idea. Use one of our gusseted cellophane bags and add a piece of designer paper to the inside to give it some shape and a fun tag to the outside. The bag idea was shared over the summer at convention and this one with the snowman tag was shared by Janet Wakeland. There are so many creative demonstrators out there with awesome ideas. Here is the one I made:

I filled these with white chocolate covered pretzels. I made some in silver like this one and others in gold. I also used both red and green enamel dots on the little snowman hat.

It won’t be too long before my boys will be back home for the Holidays. I’m very excited to have them all home again. Before they are all back Tyler will be graduating from college – it’s next Tuesday. His brother’s won’t be here for the ceremony since they are out of state but we will be celebrating as a family right before Christmas.
The card I’m sharing today shares the Home for the Holidays sentiment. It’s made with the stamps and edgelits that are in the Jingle All The Way Bundle.

I used all three edgelits that are in the set and cut them from 3 different layers of card stock. The sleigh is from Whisper White, the trees in the Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper and the houses in the Smoky Slate. I used my Big Shot and the Precision Base Plate to cut all the edgelits. If you don’t have the Precision Base Plate yet you may want to get it this week – it is part of the weekly deals so you can get it on sale! It provides a firmer surface for getting clean cuts on the detailed dies – like these edgelits, the words and the detailed thinlits. There is a new heart thinlit coming in the Occasions Catalog that you will need the Precision Base Plate for getting a good clean cut. So I’m telling you now to place an order.
