Sharing a sneak peek card idea of a new Stampin' Up! set coming soon in the new Occasions Catalog in January!  The set used on the card above is called "Sheltering Tree" and is one of my favorites from this new collection.

Sheltering Tree will be one of those sets that you can fall back on over and over again.  With coordinating images within the set for any season, you'll be able to use this set year round.

Stay tuned for more sneak peeks from the Occasions Catalog as well as some more Holiday ideas to make this season the merriest ever!

Thanks for stopping by today for this Stampin' Up! sneak peek card idea using a stamp set coming soon in the  Occasions Catalog.

Today's card uses the Stampin' Up! Bravo set for a handmade Congratulations card. I started with the Moonlight DSP Stack to determine my color scheme and decide to keep the design simple.  That awesome "congratulations" image need to shine!

• The base of the card is Lost Lagoon cut at 4 1/4" x 11".
• Moonlight DSP layer is 4" x 5 1/4".
  
• Whisper White for stamped image is 1 3/4" x 4 1/2".
• Hello Honey layer is 1 1/2" x 4 3/4".
• Smoky Slate layer is 1 3/4" x 5".
• Silver Satin ribbon is tied around card base and DSP layer before stamped image and layers are added.
• Itty Bitty Accents Pack Star Punch is Silver Glimmer Paper.

So glad to be back--thanks to my Dad for getting my Internet up and running-- so that I can share a 2014 Christmas gift box paper crafting project and video tutorial!  

This little gem was the inspiration from a project pictured in the 2014-2015 Annual Catalog from Stampin' Up!  It's a blast taking a project idea found elsewhere and making it your own, don't you think?

Let's take a look at the video tutorial below or catch it HERE on You Tube!

So excited to bring you this Makeover Monday 2014 Stampin' Up! Christmas Treat Wrap actually on a Monday again!  My days have been full with lots of family, community, and holiday fun. How about you?  My tree is finally cut from the tree farm and up in the living room but not an ornament adorns it yet.  All in good time!  No stress...enjoy each moment attitude here in this home!

This little treat wrap was originally posted last year but it is so easy and quick, I had to share it again.  This version is even easier with the Festival of Trees and Tree Punch and the beautiful Under the Tree Specialty Designer Paper!

Take a look at the original video tutorial below or follow this link to You Tube.

Here's a delayed Makeover Monday project with an idea for a 2014 Stampin' Up! Christmas ornament.  December is a busy month for most of us but I hope you'll stay with me as I strive to share my best paper crafting and decorating ideas to help you through the holidays!

These medallion ornaments are some of my favorites for package adornments and tree decorations.  The star theme here is special to me since our stamping community name is the Ink and Inspirations Stars!

Using any theme utilizing your stamps, punches, or framelits help to make these unique and original every time you create one.  Even if you try to make two the same, it's like a snowflake...no two are exactly alike!
