I heard from a few people that they are already done making all their cards and ready to get them in the mailbox! That is wonderful! I stopped in the post office yesterday and picked up some holiday stamps. They had a variety of choices – have you done that yet?
I love how this card turned out. I used the Foil Frenzy Specialty Designer Series Paper. It is so much nicer in person than how it looks in the catalog. For my cards I used the Soft Sky patterns but I think the other colors would be fun too – at least the Lemon Lime Twist and Berry Burst would be bright and cheerful for the holidays. The Tangerine Tango I will save for something else.
I used the Watercolor Wishes set again. I’ve been using it a bunch the last couple of months. And I have more card kits and I may have a little pop-up class to make some more of the kit cards – I’m going to look for a day in early December to fit that in.
The Layering Oval framelits are the two layers of the greeting – a Whisper White oval to stamp the greeting on – and I used Basic Black ink. Then the Soft Sky scallopped oval in the back. Layer it on a piece of the Foil Frenzy. I finished with a little bit of Baker’s Twine. It’s a quick card to put together but the foil really makes it shine!

Christmas card season is upon us. I received my first one in the mail yesterday. How about you? Have you made yours? Have you planned anything yet? Well if you need some inspiration I’ve got ideas to share with you. So keep coming back to see what is new on my blog.
Today I have a card that uses the Christmas Quilt bundle from the Holiday catalog. This one actually came about because of left over pieces I had from another card. I’ll share that one on another day because I apparently didn’t take any photos of it yet.
The bundle includes the Christmas Quilt stamp set and the Quilt Builder Framelits Dies. I also used the coordinating Quilted Christmas Designer Series paper. The greeting is stamped in Garden Green. My card base is the Thick Whisper White card stock. The very center is finished with a pearl.
You can get all the items for this card in my online store.

We have a brand new process for getting this tool – a reservation system with multiple reservation windows and approximate shipping dates. The manufacturer can only make a certain number of these tools at a time so each reservation window has a limit and will close early if that limit is met. So don’t delay. The first reservation window opens today – Thursday, Nov. 16 at 2 PM Mountain Time – That’s 4 PM in the Eastern Time zone. Reservation Window #1 is Nov. 16 – 30, 2017 with an approximate ship date of Feb. 1, 2018. Two more reservation windows will open later and I will post those dates as the time approaches.
If you missed the first reservation window – the second one will open on December 5th.
You will need to go to my online store – HERE – and make sure you have an online account set up. Click on the reservation button to complete your reservation. Download an instruction sheet here – Reservation Instruction Sheet.
You will need to have a credit card to create your reservation but your card will not be charged now. Be sure your email is accurate. Once the tools are in the warehouse and ready to ship you will receive an email that it is time to complete your order. You will go into your online account and the Stamparatus will be in your shopping cart – DON’T DELETE IT!! You can add additional items to your cart. Add at least one item to bring your total over $50 in February and you will qualify for a Sale-A-Bration item! You can also add a hostess code at that time and update your shipping address if it has changed. Close out your order and your card will be charged at that time and your order shipped.
