Tour de Freaks August Blog Hop - Holiday Catalog

Hello, Stampers!

So glad you could join us in the August Control Freaks

Blog Hop! This month, we are celebrating the NEW Holiday Catalog!

When I saw the Cookie Cutter Suite, I immediately fell in love!

There is a Christmas and Halloween set that has a coordinating punch, too!

I took a basic chalkboard easel and added some Real Red Glitter embossing

powder with Versamark ink and a sponge. SO SPARKLY!

My first project is a Countdown to Christmas chalkboard.

The little banner images were stamped and colored with a blender pen and the 

sweet little gingerbread house was cut directly from the Candy Cane Lane designer 

series paper. A touch of Dazzling Diamonds glitter really compliments 

the glitter embossing powder nicely!

A fun way for kids to get ready for the "big day"!

This adorable scarecrow was colored using blender pens

and added to the Tip Top Taupe doily. The warm feel

of the card was created using the Cable Knit embossing folder - 

look at that detail! 

The best part of Stampin' Up! products are how versatile they

can be! Mixing and matching supplies allows

for endless possibilities!
