A Lovely Christmas Swap

Last month I participated in a shoebox swap with some SU! demon- strator friends of mine, though I didn't actually get to attend due to illness. This lovely card is one of the projects from the swap. Jolene Barnes was the designer. Isn't it lovely? She used the White Shimmer Paint on the background. I just love the Navy/Silver/White combo for Christmas.
And don't forget that the 12 Days of Christmas sale is going on right now. See yesterday's post for details or click on the link on the right.

Christmas Blessings to you and yours,

Julie

Stampin' Up!'s 12 Days of Christmas and "WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN???"

Sorry that I've been missing for the last week. It's so hard to prioritize my time during the Christmas season. I hope to make it up to you over the next few days.
How's this for a beautiful and simple Christmas card? It was made by Sandy Kelso, a demo that I met at convention. I love the way this card shows off the Petals-A-Plenty embossing folder from SU!
And don't forget the wonderful sale that Stampin' Up! is having right now. What, you don't know about it? Well, from now until the 22nd, there's a big sale on selected Big Shot dies and vinyls. You can make your own vinyl adhesive decorations with the vinyls and your imagination is the limit with these wonderful dies! Go to my Demonstrator Website and click on the "shop now" button. Don't forget to select me as your demonstrator so that you can take advantage of the preferred pricing.

Happy shopping!

Blessings,
Julie

Ever Have a Card Morph?

Christmas Card Cranks are over for the year. Should we start earlier next year? Maybe we should have a crank in July with some new sets...Yes! That's the ticket! Anyway, you've seen this card before because it was one of the CCC cards. I had to keep it simple so that my guests could get their 20 cards made in under 4 hrs. But I have such a hard time keeping things simple. I really like a little more pizzazz. So....
I messed with it for my own cards. This past Saturday, there were only two guests coming, so it proved to be the perfect opportunity for me to get started on my own Christmas cards. And this is the card that morphed from the original. What do you think? Ever had that happen to you before? I'd love to see the "before" and "after" pictures.

Thanks for stopping by the Stamping Station.

Blessings,
Julie

Birthday Wishes Notes Style

Fun & Fast Notes is a great basic stamp set. Look at this fun cake image...some markers, a little glitter and ta da! You're done. Oh, and the panels are made out of left over strips of DSP. This sketch was challenge 35 over on Stampin' Addicts. Very fun!

Thanks for stopping by the Stamping Station.

Blessings and a great Christmas season to you.

Julie
