Stampin' Up! So Many Stars and Stitched Stars DIes

  • Stampin' Up! So Many Stars
  • Paper Pumpkin Winter Wonders
  • Join us for the Holiday Catalog Card Classes Sept 15 & 16, 2019

Stampin' Up! Christmas Gleaming Stamp Set

I just finished a large card swap with the most talented group of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators and I'm planning to showcase the wonderful cards I received over the next several days.  To follow yesterday,s copper foil theme from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog, the first card I selected to show you also used Copper Foil die-cut stars using the Stitched Stars Dies and the So Many Stars Stamp Set.  This card was created by Tina Munzke from Crafted with Class.  

    

Christmas Card using So Many Stars Stamp Set

  


The basecard is Night of Navy  Cardstock.  Then a layer of Night of Navy at the top and Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer paper with the copper foil star print covering most of the card.  A thin layer of Copper Foil separates the two layers. The stars stamp from  So Many Stars Stamp Set was stamped in Versamark on the top Night of Navy layer and heat embossed with Copper Embossing Powder.  

The image layer uses a Stitched Nested Label die cut for the sentiment.   The sentiment is also from the So Many Stars Stamp Set.  The coordinating Stitched Stars Dies was used to cut the swirled stars from Copper Foil Paper.  Then, the Star Designer Elements from the Brightly Gleaming Suite and the colored Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels were used as additional accents on this card.   


The box of swaps I received includes about 40 cards.  I can't wait to show you more the fabulous work from Stampin' Up! demonstrators who participated in this swap. I love receiving Happy Mail like this!  Think of how specials you make someone feel when you send them a handmade holiday card.  




You'll find that you can save 10% when you purchase the So Many Stars Bundle, which includes the So Many Stars Stamp Set and the Stitched Stars Dies.  Use item #153016 to get the bundle pricing when you order.   You'll love what you create with his set.

Paper Pumpkin Winter Wonders 

Why are we showing two kits?  Because the October and November Paper Pumpkin kits will offer back-to-back coordinating kits.  One with Christmas cards, the other with Christmas tags.  Both kits make it easy to add a handmade, personal touch to your holiday giving -- without a lot of fuss.  It's Christmas made easy with Paper Pumpkin!! 






About the October and November Holiday Kits:

October Kit:  
Kit makes 10 cards and envelopes.  Card size:  4-1/4 X 5-1/2".

November Kit:

The October and November kits coordinate; however, each kit is all-inclusive and can stand alone.

These fun kits also include a stamp set and an ink spot in addition to the die cuts, accessories and pre-cut materials to make these projects.  All you need is glue and scissors to finish these kits.  

There's something about the holidays that brings out the crafter in all of us.  Even non-crafters will like making these fun projects to celebrate the season.  Along with cookie-making, start a new tradition of making cards and tags with the younger ones in your family.  To order, click below:
