Many Merry Stars stamp set

I love using Lost Lagoon and Soft Sky for Christmas cards.  They are just so pretty!  My silver glimmer star is not the current silver glimmer paper.  I like this better and I want to use up my stash.  I think the Dazzling Diamonds glimmer paper would look very sparkly with this, too.  The Many Merry Stars stamp set is in the Stampin'Up! Holiday Supplement and coordinates with the Stars Framelits and the Many Merry Stars Simply Created kit, also in the Holiday Supplement.  My card base is Whisper White with layers of Soft Sky and Lost Lagoon.  I used th candy dot brad bases for the center of the Snowflake embelishment and topped it off with a Soft Sky candy dot.  Love it!

 

 

Many Merry Stars kit and a Star Candy box!

I'm seeing stars!  I've been busy all afternoon making these stars from the Many Merry Stars kit.  I even figured out a way to make one so you can put treats on the inside!  The kit makes 26 stars so I have just a few yet to do.  I used the Stars Collection framelits to cut a star shape from one of the kit stars.  Then I used a larger star framelit to cut another from my package of Gold Shimmer paper.  I attached with a brad, so it will swing to the side to access the candy inside.  The wood snowflake embellisment comes with the kit and I placed it so that I just slide a star point behind it so it stays closed.

Santa Stache Spinning Mustache treat favors

I made these using the Santa Stache stamp set and the Trim the Tree Paper stack from the Stampin'Up! Holiday catalog.  The mustache spins around when you pull the twine.  Scroll through my posts to watch the video by Deb Valder showing how she makes the mustache spin!  I did have to fussy cut the Santa's but the Mustache framelits does all the extra mustaches you need.  I pieced my dsp together because I wanted to use this paper.  I could have used a different dsp but chose this one.  These are for my gals attending my Christmas Stamp a Stack tomorrow.  This class is also available by mail.  $30 includes the 12 completed (3 each of 4 designs) and envelopes and shipping to US addresses only.

Non traditional Christmas colors. This set coordinates with the Many Merry Stars Simply Created Kit and the Stars framelits.  Love it!

Christmas Pop Up card!

Trying to keep this Christmas Pop Up card simple so I cut the packages from the Nordic Noel designer series paper from the Stampin'Up! Holiday catalog.  I cut strips 4.5" by 3/4", and scored every inch, adhering them to make squares. Then I adhere the present to the front of a square, and then use sticky strip or strong adhesive on the bottom and back of the square sides, adhering them to the inside of the card.  The Christmas Cheer is from the Cheerful Christmas stamp set, and the sentiment is from the Christmas Bliss photopolymer stamp set.  The Joy is die cut with the Wonderful Wreath framelits dies. My tip for die cutting the detailed words is to use the Adhesive Sheets and wax paper so my layer on the magnetic platform is adhesive sheet adhered to the Gold Foil piece, wax paper, and then the framelit.  After running it through the Big Shot just poke the word out, peel the protective paper from the adhesive sheet and adhere to your card front.  My card front is also embossed with the Filigree Frame Textured Embossing Folder.  Most of the products are on page 15 of the holiday catty.
