Super Saturday: Simple and Sparkly

Love the cheeriness of Stampin' Up!'s Candy Cane Christmas Specialty Designer Series Paper. Perfect for your holiday card making and scrap booking this collection is whimsical and fun in traditional colors (Real Red, Garden Green, and Whisper White) with the frosty-ness of Baja Breeze added to the mix.

I cut the word Joy from a strip that I cut with my Big Shot and Join in the Cheer. I was totally out of Garden Green card stock so used Whisper White and colored the letters with my Garden Green Stampin' Write Marker. Chunky White Glitter from the Chunky Essentials collection adds a festive touch to the snowflakes and lettering. And, that rick rack...ah, yes...cut with the Tasteful Trim Die...LOVE it! Check out all the fun borders you can cut with this die in the Holiday Mini or click the link below to see it online!

Supplies:
Paper: Candy Cane Christmas, Real Red and Whisper White card stock
Ink: Garden Green Stampin' Write Marker
Accessories: Big Shot, Tasteful Trim Bigz XL, Sizzlits Merry Details, Decorative Strip Join in the Cheer, Signo White Gel Pen, Whisper White 5/8" Organza Ribbon

Super Saturday: Candy Cane Christmas Mini Box

The Candy Cane Specialty Designer Paper in the Stampin' Up! Holiday Mini lends a whimsical feel to your holiday projects.
How about a super simple card and mini box for a tiny treat?

The card went together easily; I let the paper do the work and added a little Dazzling Diamonds for sparkle. The "Merry Christmas" sentiment is from my go-to holiday set words, Many Merry Messages. Yummy Real Red Satin Ribbon completes the look.
Love the Tinsel Trim as a handle for my tiny box also from the Holiday Mini. The tinsel comes in Silver and Clear...the silver is "wired" so you can bend into your desired shape. Really fun! I'll try to get a video up soon on the box. You'll want to make these for any holiday.

Super Saturday: World Making Day!

Hi everyone!
Hope you are all having a great day! Sorry for the late post. We've been out of town and returned home this morning at 3:00 am! So, needless to say, I am a little slow moving today trying to play catch up! Thanks for your patience :)

Happy World Card Making Day! How awesome to have a day just for this craft :). Create a card today to send to someone who could use a smile---you'll make their day!

I made this card just a while ago using some of that very versatile Nite Owl Designer Series Paper that can be used for so much more than Halloween. Just love that! You'll notice that I have a "blank" punch on the card...I will often do this when creating so that I can add the appropriate sentiment when I need a card in a hurry. Love how my Certainly Celery Satin Ribbon blended with that rockin' In Color, Pear Pizazz.

Stampin' Up! Greenhouse Gala on Super Saturday

The new Greenhouse Gala Designer Series Paper-117167 from Stampin' Up! is super sweet. The designs are really beautiful and this card showcases one. I've used the beautiful friend stamp from All Holidays- 114916 on a section of the "white" space on the designer paper ...no extra layers here! I colored directly on the rubber before stamping with Chocolate Chip-100071, Pear Pizazz-119801 (In Color set of 5) and Pumpkin Pie-105114 Stampin' Write Markers. A Pumpkin Pie Scallop Edge Border-119882 and 1/4" grosgrain ribbon-109030 complete the look!

Have a super day!---Lisa

Stampin' Up! Enjoy Every Moment

I decided to pull one of my much loved sets off my shelf to create this card! Enjoy Every Moment is a great set for card making as well as scrapbooking!
I've used Sahara Sand as the base with some designer paper from the Sweet Pea Designer Paper Stack for accents. Some beautiful Old Olive Satin Ribbon is threaded through a slot punched with the Horizontal Slot Punch. Sweet Pea Stitched Felt pieces provide the corner accent.
How about making a card for someone "just because"? This one would be perfect, don't you think?
