It’s month #11 of our 12 Kits of Christmas project, and this month’s hostess is Jeanne! If you’d like to read about how this group started and works, please read this post. Jeanne is the queen of stunning detailed dies and this kits was so overwhelmingly full of amazing stuff - it was so beautiful that I honestly did not know what to do with it!

For this first card, I used a circle die to cut out the middle of the doily to shape it like a wreath and I added my own bow diecut from a MFT die. Isn’t the sentiment gorgeous?!

Jeanne sent along a gift card envelope diecut, so next I decorated that with some of the other beautiful dies that she included:

Then I made another CAS card, embossing the edge with a Lil Inker’s die and adding my own stamped frame and diecut to the sentiment - that is a Wplus9 die and frame stamp:

Be sure to hop along and leave some comments because one lucky winner from one of the blogs will win a stamp and die set from Serendipity, whose products you see on this hop today! AND in honor of this hop, they are having a ONE DAY SALE of 20% off all Christmas items!!! Head on over to check it out! Thanks so much, Serendipity!

Here is a list of everyone else in our group. Have fun hopping around and seeing their creations!

Thank you so very much, Jeanne! I am in awe of you and all of your frilly fru-fru fabbiness! xoxo

More than a week had passed since I last made anything, and tonight I went upstairs to clean my craft room, pack up all my Fall stamps and papers, and break out my holiday and winter stash. There is no shortage of Christmas stamps or paper in this house - it’s my one true addiction in paper crafting. I will never tire of my Christmas stamps! I love them!

Tonight I broke out my Wplus9 sets to make this card. I was inspired by the layout of a card that I made in my class with Shari Carroll and the color inspiration came from a pack of rhinestones that I picked up at Michael’s (who is completely sold out of red bling, by the way…it’s a bit of a crafty crisis, I think.)

I stamped Background Builders: Knit in Versamark on the pink background, and Folk Art Flurries in PTI’s Dark Chocolate on the brown side panel. I used the same ink to stamp the frame from Very Vintage Greetings onto white cardstock and heat embossed the sentiment from Classic Christmas onto the handcut banner. Lastly, I stamped a flurry from the FAF onto the Simple Snowflake diecut in Versamark and added a matching rhinestone.

I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving! Did you go shopping and find any deals? I didn’t shop much other than to stock up on some Crate Paper, but I am looking forward to Cyber Monday!

Have a great night!
Suzanne

Hey hey hey! Hope your weekend was fun!

Today I have this card to share for CAS-ual Fridays Stamps; Michele designed the greatest Hanukkah set called 8 Happy Nights. I paper pieced the star and stamped the sentiment in dark blue ink. The rest of the card involved some simple layering and foam tape. I think this could be fun to make with a variety of blue patterns for the star.

Head on over to the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Blog for more inspiration from the team all week long!

Hi everyone! I wanted to post a card that I made for CAS-ual Fridays Stamps Peek Week. My trip last weekend left me not knowing what day it was, and I missed ‘my day’ to post; here I am now!

I just wanted to let you know that Michele released some great new sets this week…on this card, I used Merry Kiss-mas:

They stamp like a dream!

I also wanted to thank everyone for all the comments they left on my giveaway post. You are all so sweet and I loved hearing about all your favorite products right now. I am super excited for the winner:

Brandi, I will send you an e-mail so I can get your address and mail your prize out ASAP! I hope you all have a great weekend. I have some local crafty stuff going on this weekend, as well as a wedding.
