Not A Christmas Card

I am back, but not with a Christmas card.  I decided to curl up with the Annual Catalog and see what I have not used in a while.  I stopped at Mountain Air stamp set.  It has been around for a while, but if you know me you know I love the mountains.  I thought it would be fun to use that stamp set.  The only problem was I grabbed some Designer Series Paper that is not current. In fact, I don’t know where it came from but guess what.  The green pattern paper in the Tidings of Christmas is very similar.

This card is a perfect example to case.  If you have not heard the term, case means to take the idea and turn it into your own.  When you case, you take the image (stamp set) and change a few elements.  It can be paper or a die. You may choose to use another image which could be done here.

Before I tell you about the card, I thought I tell you about the Craft Show.  It was wonderful and as of right now that is my last show of the season.  I sold a wide variety of items (cards, gift items, and my soaps, lotion).  So now I am trying to get on a schedule again.  I will be having more information coming up about my December Schedule.

Have You …..?

Now that we are in December, have you picked out your tree, or are you an Artificial Tree person?  I love the real trees, but with my Asthma that is impossible.  So I have 3 Artificial Trees.  I love decorating the house from top to bottom.

So today I am giving you one last Christmas card (maybe one more). This uses the Evergreen Elegance stamp set.  This is in the Annual Catalog. Don’t forget to use an Embossing Folder for the background.

Creating

How is your creating going? Do have a list of who is getting your beautiful Christmas cards.  I don’t know about you, but each of my Christmas cards is created with a person in mind.  Each Christmas I receive a card from this person and their dog.  I love receiving it, but I am a cat person. So I always send a cat card.  This card today will be her Christmas card.

I just love the idea of cutting out the images from the Stampin’ Up! Designer Series Paper. It makes creating cards so easy.  You need to check out the Sweet Stocking Designer Series Paper. However, don’t skip getting the stamp set bundle because you will find it perfect for you your other pet friends.

By the way, the greeting is from a retired stamp set. I wanted happy to tie to the inside sentiment.

There are a couple of reminders for you to mark your calendar.  One is on Tuesday I will be announcing in my newsletter the December Online Class.  It is the Peaceful Deer.  The punch has been out of stock for some time and is finally in stock.  I am announcing it early because the December Monthly newsletter will not go out until December 7th.  It will have a shortened order period. Another announcement is the Stampin’ Up! Retirement List will be out on December 1st.
