Hello friends. It sure seems like I have been out of town more than I have been home these past few months. Currently we are in New York City taking in all the sights. Because I knew I had limited time to create a 3D item I chose to use the easy button!
Have you noticed the Bag Combos in the September-December catalog? These are so versatile and easy to embellish and decorate.
This is the sample from the Stampin’ Up! site. It is so cute with the heart cute out. I think you could use a tree die to create a fun Christmas bag with the same concept.
I decided to cover the front of the larger bag with Sentimental Christmas Designer Paper. I stamped the sentiment before I adhered the DSP. The handle is created with this lovely Lost Lagoon Soft Cording. This cording is silky and soft. The Cherry Cobbler & Pearl Adhesive Backed Berries finish off the pine branches nicely.
Isn’t it great we can create such pretty packaging even if we have limited time? Stampin’ Up! products make it so easy!
Make sure you hop on for more 3D inspiration.

Welcome to this month’s Stamptastic Friends blog hop! This month we are casing a team member…talk about a hard choice. All the Stamptastic Friends create beautiful projects.
I searched around and found this card by Katie Drew, it spoke to me because of the colors and simplicity. Fall is my favorite season so creating a card to send friends during this time of the year makes me happy. Katie’s card uses Iconic Imagery Bundle and Perennial Lavender Designer Series Paper.
I chose to go with the same Iconic Imagery stamp bundle and card design layout. I double stamped the leaves in a variety of fall colors and then die cut them. I changed my color scheme by using Iconic Celebrations 6 x 6 Designer Series Paper. I turned this into a Thanksgiving card by changing the sentiment using Autumn Expressions stamp set. Thanks to Katie I now have my favorite fall card.

It’s exciting that Stamptastic friends are sharing coloring tips today! As someone who enjoys crafting, I am always on the lookout for new techniques and inspiration. I bet you are also.
Creating the same card with different coloring mediums is a fantastic way to explore their unique effects. Blends tend to give a softer, yet clear color, while Watercolor Pencils offer a brighter and more rustic look. Both have their charm!
And how exciting to get a sneak peek of the upcoming bundle, “Winterly Tree Tops.” Versatility is key, especially when a stamp set can be used for birthdays, thinking-of-you cards, and even Christmas greetings.
As for my favorite between the two cards, I like the clear look of the Blends version—it feels serene and refined. But there’s something unique about the vibrant colors and rustic feel of the Watercolor Pencils card. It depends on the mood you want to convey!
