Shimmery Snowflake

 
A simple snowflake cut out using the Snowflake Card Thinlits Die.  A little sparkle of Gold Glimmer Paper (on Sale 50% off through Dec 2nd). Some sponging around the edges of the Crumb Cake card stock to antique it just a bit.  Endless Wishes, the go to stamp set for greetings.  Tie the whole thing up with some Gold Bakers Twine and there you have a super simple, very elegant Holiday card.

Extravaganza Wrap Up!

Stampin’ Up!’s Extravaganza is wrapping up soon!  There are SO MANY ways to save during this promotion – on purchases and on purchases of the Starter Kit.  Woo hoo!  With so many great items on deep discount, have you cashed in on the savings?  Check out the Blendabilities Bundle that is 30% off!
Yes, you read that right, Stampin’ Up! has put together a Blendabilities Bundle for their second door Buster which is available only on Monday, December 1st while supplies last.
 
 
The Bundle includes 12 Blendabilites Assortments (that’s every color of Blendabilities available except the Skin Tone Assortment and the Color Lifter)
Check out some of the amazing things you can do with Blendabilities.
 
 
Beautiful shading on the flower
  
 
Color Glimmer Paper (the green stem was silver until I colored it with Old Olive Blendabilities)

 

 
Hombre Ribbon: I started with the lightest shade of Coastal Cabana on one end of Whisper White Seam Binding, then used Medium in the middle and finally the darkest on the other end.

 

 
Color on Vellum

 

 
Color on Embossing Powder:  I stamped the flower boarder in Versa Mark and embossed with white embossing powder.  I used Melon Mambo and Old Olive Blendabilites to color on top of the embossing to get a multi colored embossed effect.

 

 
Colored Hot Dots:  The center of the flower was made by coloring Daffodil Delight Blendabilites directly on our Silicone Sheet and immediately squeezing some glue from a hot glue gun on the colored spot.  Once the glue cooled, I could lift the colored glue dot off the sheet and attach to the center of the flower with a glue dot.
 
 
The Extravaganza has been in full swing for a week now but it ends on December 2nd.  Here are the other Door Busters which are available Dec 1st only.

From Our Home to Yours…

 
Last week I held a class that featured the Homemade Holiday Framelits.  From the comments at the class it sounds like this one was their favorite.  We started out by stamping the houses in Memento Ink and coloring them with Cherry Cobbler and Smoky Slate Blendabilities, then cut them out with the coordinating Framelits.  The opening in the Whisper White piece was cut with the Deco Labels Framelits then embossed with the Stylish Stripes Embossing Folder then popped up on the Cherry Cobbler card base with Dimensionals.    I tucked two of the houses into the opening and one on the front.  The greeting is also from the Holiday Home stamp set and then cut our with the Bitty Banner Framelits. 
 
There are a number of our Framelits on sale through Tuesday and our Blendabilities go on sale 30% off on Monday only, so tune in tomorrow when I feature a number of cards that feature those great products.
