Scroll down for details on how to get this class kit for free!

The Christmas Card Class Series has kicked off! I just love the Holiday season! While I am not quite ready to say good by to summer, I know that the Holidays will be here before I know if. This year, I want to be well prepared and start my Holiday projects now so come Thanksgiving I am ready to get things mailed. Yes I know that is a well thought out plan- now to make sure I implement it!

It’s funny as a little kid, I was frightened of dogs, but now I just love them. I am a proud doggie mom. yup our little man Cooper (well he is 70 lbs of little) is a joy in our lives. Yes, he can be a handful, but I wouldn’t trade him for the world. My hubby calls him a Momma’s boy. Although he is excited for any family member to walk in the door. And well, he can not hold his licker. so if you love doggie smooches he is the pup to visit. I’ll find some pictures to share later on.

Anyways, on to our cards…

here is the class video, feel free to watch or scroll down to the card photos.

Festive Scottie Card

The first card features the Celebrate Everything Designer Paper. But you could use ANY designer paper you have and make it any theme. Did you notice the Wonderful Snowflake accent on the card? It is an iridescent snowflake and can be used on all sorts of cards. In fact, I used them on all 3 cards. On this card I used both the punch and the stamped Scottie image. When I stamped the Scottie on the inside, I used Stazon Jet Black ink. Watch the video for details and tips on using Stazon Ink and cleaning tips.

Furry and Bright Holiday Card

Our second card is a bit of a fun fold. Very similar to the Book binding or Matchbook Style cards you may have seen. I was inspired by Lisa McGrew that I has been in a card swap with. I once again used the Celebrate Everything Designer Paper. I also used the Whimsical Woodland 3D embossing folder from the July – December Mini Catalog or as I refer to is as the Holiday Mini Catalog from Stampin’ Up! Try to say Whimsical Woodland 3D embossing folder really fast. It’s almost a tongue twister. I finished off the card with Red Rhinestones and Real Red Ribbon. I also decided I wanted the inside to be different from most cards. Instead of using a piece of Basic White layer, I punched out a Decorative circle, stamped my sentiment in Real Red then added on of the Wonderful Snowflakes. For his collar, I used an Real Red marker to color it in.

Christmas Scottie Fun Flap Card

Last but definitely not least… a Fun Flap card. I received this card in a swap as well, but I lost the person’s information that created it so I can not give her credit, I do apologize. I changed it up by adding a Wonderful Snowflake, using the Whimsical Woodland 3d Embossing folder and adding silver foil and Basic Rhinestone jewels. This card features the Gingham Cottage Designer paper that coordinates with the Gingham Cottage Suite found in the July – December Mini Catalog on page 58-59.

Who wouldn’t love a desktop calendar that is easy to see and not be hidden by all the other stuff on your desk? This easel desktop calendar is so easy to create and is a great seller at craft fairs. For this calendar I featured the Kindest Gnomes Stamp set and Gnomes dies and coordinating Storybook Gnomes Designer Paper. All can be found in my online store (see links below) and if in the Stampin’ Up! July-December 2022 Mini catalog,

This adorable treat box is easy to make. Just make sure you are using a strong adhesive! This sweet box features the Kindest Gnomes Stamp set and Gnomes dies and the Butterfly Kisses designer series paper. You can use whatever stamp set and Designer papers you have in your Craft Room to make this. In today’s video- I give you all the measurements and instructions so you can make these treat boxes.

Our last project is a Vellum Wine Glass Shade. It has been a while since I have made these but this is a great gift idea for the Holidays or any time of the year. Just change up your Stamp set. Today I featured the Snow Crystal Stamp found in the Stampin’ Up! July-December 2022 Mini catalog, or as I call it the Holiday Catalog. The first shade uses the stamp and silver embossing on vellum cardstock. As I was Live, I added in making one with the Snowflake Specialty Vellum- this is an AWESOME alternative if you don’t have the supplies to emboss your wine glass shade.
