Star of Light

Have you played with the Star of Light stamp set yet?  I LOVE this stamp set.  Last night was my Stamp of the Month Class — everyone received the Star of Light Bundle which includes the Star of Light stamp set and the coordinating Thinlits — Starlight.  I had so much fun designing these cards — I ran out of time but it’s a stamp set that I really want to play with some more.  The cards are beautiful yet pretty simple.

The first card I want to share is a great combination of Dapper Denim and the Copper Foil Sheets.  I did “CASE” this card from Pinterest with a couple small “Peggy tweaks”. 
Dapper & Copper
Isn’t it fabulous.  I love the soft romantic look of the star swirl and love the copper and dapper denim color combo.  I forgot to take a picture of the inside but I added the star swirl again and stamped “Became the Light of the World”.

If you haven’t ordered this bundle yet it is a MUST HAVE!!

Holly Christmas Wishes

I love when Stampin’ Up! has BUNDLES — you know — a stamp set and then a coordinating punch or framelit set!!!  It makes everything so much easier when we are creating and bundles save us money too — 10% off when you purchase both items together. 

Today’s card features the Holly Berry Happiness stamp set and coordinating Holly Berry Builder Punch — it makes those little holly leaves and berries so easy to make.

Copper & Paisleys

I've already told you how much I like the
Petals & Paisleys designer paper.
Today I have a card made by my friend and
team member, Gail Diss.  This was Gail's
swap card at our last team meeting.

Copper & PaisleysShe started with a Night of Navy base.
A layer of the fabulous Copper Foil Sheets.
Then she added rectangles of the Petals & Paisleys designer paper
over the Copper Foil.
She stamped the greeting with VersaMark ink and heat embossed with the Copper embossing powder.
She cut the flower out of Copper Foil sheet using the
Paisleys thinlits and then added a small piece of Rich Razzlberry cardstock and a tiny piece of Mint Macaron.

What a beautiful card this is — great job Gail!!
