Happy Holidays from the Stamptastic Friends. This month we are focusing on Christmas cards and projects.
I chose to use the Spruced-Up Bundle for my projects.
Last week I created a few cards using this set. They are so pretty in all shades of Glimmer paper.
When you die cut the trees you have a bunch of trees left over. You will have solid trees and outline trees to create with.
The trees sat on my desk until I decided to try a framed project.
This glittery frame came from a local dollar store, and I figured it would be perfect for this project.
The “words” came from the Santa Memories and More cards. I heat embossed them using Gold Embossing Powder.

Hello Stamping Friends! The Stamptastic Friends have a treat for you today. Lots of different techniques.
Don’t you love learning new ways to use your stamps, paper, and ink? I sure do.
I tried something “new to me” this month. Coloring on white heat embossing. This technique is so cool. Not sure how I missed giving this a go a long time ago.
You start with heat embossing images in white on Basic Black cardstock. Then use your Watercolor Pencils to color the white embossed lines. It sort of gives it a subtle hint of color. After coloring buff it lightly with a paper towel or soft terry cloth. That helps smooth the color out.
Then die cut the images and assembled them on the card base. Shear ribbon and Iridescent Jewels add just the right touch of elegance.
I hope you will be inspired to try this new technique and I would love to see what you come up with.

Today we are hopping with Sale-a-bration products. If you are new to Sale-a-bration it is a promotion offered twice a year and you get rewarded for shopping. We have $50.00 rewards and $100.00 rewards. The more you spend the more you can earn for free! Pretty sweet deal in my opinion.
I chose 3 different SAB products to share. Hippest Hippos, Hippo Dies, and Amazing Phrasing. Toss these 3 together and get 1 adorable card. I also wanted to use the Stamparatus to demonstrate hinge stamping. I love how the Stamparatus works to give beautiful and solid stamped images. It is the BEST stamp positioner.
Woo-Hoo – here is my card. The hippos are so fun and happy.
Here is the Stampartus in action. The 3rd Woo-Hoo is stamped on a scrap of Basic White and fussy cut. Then it is adhered with dimensionals.
I have a video of this card is you want to see how I put it together.

Do you ever get stumped on what to create or how to use a Stamp Set/ Bundle? A good way to get out of that slump is to CASE the catalog.
This stands for “Copy and Share Card/Copy and Share Everything”. If you see a card and there’s something you just love about it, go ahead and copy and share what you create!
I was struggling with the Santa Express Suite. This adorable Suite is on page 16 of the Mini Catalog.
These cards were so much fun! Love the slim Line card.
Now I am ready to come up with some of my own layouts and designs.

Freshly Made Sketches has a new sketch this week #545. I thought the Splendid Thoughts Designer Series Paper would make stunning rectangles. I was correct, it is so pretty.
Unfortunately, I have a bad habit of hoarding pretty paper. Are you a paper hoarder?
I die cut two images from cardstock. I stamped the other blossom, water colored it and covered it with Wink of Stella. I love shiny objects.
A tiny bow gathers the stems at the bottom. Some sparkly bling adds a sweet touch.

Summer has so many options for Fun in the Sun. It can be the beach, the mountains, or anywhere in-between. I like the mountains best in the summer and the beach in the fall or winter. Where do you like to go for Fun in the Sun?
I pulled out Friends Are Like Seashells for today. Choosing soft, pastel colors gives this card a lovely vibe. The Opal Rounds work perfectly for the shiny, beachy bling.
