Wishing You Well

I just realized I never did my challenge card for this week...and I'm the challenge hostess all month long!!!!! So you'd thing I'd have the advantage know ahead of time what the challenges are!!!!! Anyway, this week we were to show some form of stitching on our project. Of course I went to my sewing machine because nowadays, it's used for sewing on cards, not fabric!! I also pulled out the beautiful Gather Together Bundle from the Holiday catalog. I love this bundle, especially the leaf dies that cut and emboss. I really am loosing it, I had meant to put a linen thread bow on the large leaf, but as you can see, I forgot. Oh bother!!

Measurements:
Old Olive card base - 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, scored and folded at 4 1/4
Crushed Curry - 5 3/8 x 4 1/8
Regals 6 x 6 DSP - 5 1/4 x 4, 3 1/2 x 1 3/8 (need 2 of these)

Holiday Catalog Paper Share

Have you seen all of the beautiful patterned papers in the 2019 Stampin’ Up! Holiday catalog? We all would love to have every patterned paper pack…right?!? But if we were to purchase all of them at once it would be super expensive!

However, if we share the papers, then we can get a little bit of everything in the catalog at a way more affordable price! Because after all, some of us don’t really need a huge pack of every style of patterned paper either.


With a product share, I take a pack of paper split it up into smaller portions. That’s where the sharing comes in!

So I have taken each of the styles of patterned papers from the new 2019 Holiday Catalog (as shown below) and cut them into smaller sizes so that we can share!


The patterned paper is cut into 6 x 6 inch pieces, that way you can enjoy all of the papers in the new catalog! And the best part is…it’s a fraction of the cost!


This paper share features 6 x 6 inch sheets of the following papers:
  • Toile Tidings (12 sheets)         
  • Wrapped In Plaid (12 sheets)           
  • Let It Snow (12 sheets)                   
  • Night Before Christmas (12 sheets)                                
  • Brightly Gleaming (12 sheets)                                           
  • Feels Like Frost (12 sheets)                                            
  • Mercury Glass (4 sheets)                                            
  • Red Glimmer Paper (2 sheets)           
  • Come to Gather (12 sheets)                   
  • Monster Bash (12 sheets)                                 
A total of 102 sheets of designer and specialty papers for $35.00!

Snowman Treat Holder and Card Duo

So what do you think of these cuties?!!! I made a super quick treat holder (and as I'm typing this blog post the chocolate bars are being consumed!!! OOOPS!) and coordinating card using products from the Let it Snow Suite. I know I've been using it a lot, but it's so darn cute and fun to play with! Also products from this suite are first up in my Christmas Card Making Club that I'm co-hosting with my good friend Lynn Dunn. Check out all the details HERE - be sure and scroll down to the end to reserve your spot!
