Pals December 2017 Blog Hop: All That Sparkles and Shines

Welcome to the Pals December 2017 Blog Hop featuring “All that Sparkles and Shines”. Whether you’re just starting the hop, or have come from a previous Pal’s blog, you’ll find the line-up toward the end of my post to help you move along.

For this card, I chose to use a technique I used this past October for my Splitcoaststamper's Falliday Fest Challenge Tutorial. Unless specified, all products are Stampin' Up!

I used a stamp from the Awesomely Artistic stamp set for the speckles and splatters. The die cut and the stamped sentiment are from the Santa's Sleigh stamp set and coordinating thinlits. The video below explains the process, which is a simpler, more controlled version of the old shaving cream technique that has been around for years. I was very excited when I came up with it last summer. I call it "Not Your Mother's Shaving Cream Technique".

I really love the Night of Navy color mixed with the gold embossing and glittery deer! Full supply list will be below the blog hop information.

Thank you so much for hopping with the Stampin’ Pretty Pals today. Please take a minute to mark your calendar for our next hop on January 10, 2018. Now hop along using the Blog Hop Line-up below. Don’t forget to leave us a comment. We really like that.

Bike Riding Weather!

This past summer, my son and his fiance visited Chicago. While there, they rented bikes to see the city. They enjoyed the bikes so much, they purchased some when they got home. The one on the left fits my son perfectly...not sure what he named his bike, but Jennifer named her bike "Pearl". Isn't Pearl darling?

When I made this card, I had Pearl in mind. All products Stampin' Up!

To create the background, I used a piece of wood grain paper from the Wood Textures Designer Series paper stack. To give it even more interest, I embossed it with the Pinewood Planks embossing folder, then sanded the high spots with a sanding block. (I embossed the sentiment before sanding, it gave the sentiment an aged look) By the way, the Wood Textures DSP is included in the Buy 3, Get One Free special this month! More info below the supply list.

Thoughtful Branches {Framed}

Are you excited about August 2nd getting here? You should be! That is the day the new Stampin' Up! stamps with matching dies called Thoughtful Branches will be available for purchase by the general public.

Several months ago, I had purchased a few plain wooden frames from one of the big box stores for $1 a piece. I painted this one with inexpensive white paint for this project. The rest is pretty self-explanatory and I've listed the supplies under the photo. Once you have the layout and your colors chosen, this is actually a very quick project. What a great gift to give someone to show you appreciate them!

Supply list:

Bonus Days are almost over...until July 31st, for every $50 you spend on Stampin' Up! products, you'll receive a $5 Bonus Days coupon that you can use towards a purchase between August 2nd-31st! Buy now, save later!

As always, let me know if you have any questions about the project or the products used. Thanks for visiting my blog.

Artfully Yours,

Mossy Meadow + Real Red

Mossy Meadow + Real Red make for a very traditional looking Christmas card. All products Stampin' Up!

I can't seem to get enough of the tree stamp from the Wonderland stamp set. Even though it, along with the word dies & embossing folder are on the retiring list...it is one I'm glad I have in my stampin' stash. The tree, pine & antler stamp will be good year round. My advice is to get your set before the January 4th deadline.

My only faux pas with this card, is that I inadvertently used a retired ribbon. However, this Real Red 1/4 cotton ribbon is available and would work just as well.

I cut 4 of the word "peace" from the Christmas Greetings Thinlits Dies and glued them together with a bit of Multipurpose Liquid Glue. This really gives great dimension on this card, especially when paired with the Boughs & Berries embossing folder.

To recap: the stamp set, thinlits and embossing folder used to make this card are all on the retiring list, which can be found here. Retiring products will be available until January 4th or while supplies last. If you are viewing this blog post via email, you may have to hop on over to my actual blog to see the detailed supply list below.

Holiday Gift Bag

I just love it when a plan comes together! I am hosting a Bag, Tag & Box Class at my home this Saturday. This is one of the gift bags we will be making.

I had been thinking about doing one with black, neutrals & glittery silver and I'm really pleased with how it turned out. This was made using an ordinary lunch sack. I went through my scraps to find pieces for this one! I tend to not throw anything away, because you never know when you might need a small bit of this or that for a project. The star was cut from a piece of cardboard that I deconstructed a bit. If you look close, you can tell I used the new little stapler all over this project. By the way, I have found that Fast Fuze is a quick, good adhesive to use when adhering cardstock to these bags.

Neutral Elegance PLUS Last Day To Stamp, Stock & Save!

I just love beige tones mixed with silver. This card & small gift bag set was very simple to put together. The shiny silver tree & the word Noel were made by sticking a piece of 3M aluminum foil tape to a piece of card stock, then cutting it out like you normally would. The tree was embossed with the Stampin' Up! Wood Grain embossing folder. Nothing special was done to the word Noel, that's just the way it turned out.
