Stitched Stocking Just for Fun Card

Isn't this such cute card using the Stitched Stocking Stamp Set and Stocking Builder punch?? I thought it would be a fun card to create to show you a different way to use this coordinating stamp set and punch!! I just love it!!

Stampin' Up! has recently announced that the stocking punch will NOT carry over into the Idea Book & Catty in July..boo woooo! It's very unusual for SU to come out with a punch and not carry it over so I'm super sad it won't be offered at a later date!! Once the inventory is depleted, it will no longer be available. Get it while it lasts! The item number for the punch is #120495 and it is $22.95. You can order it through me, or through my SU! website, HERE.

The Stitched Stockings matching stamp set can be found on page 34 of the Holiday Mini Catalog.



Clear mount item number is #123784 and is $25.95.
The wood mount item # is 123782 and is $33.95.

Please contact me asap if you'd like me to add these items or any other items to my order that will be going in tomorrow!! (or order online before January 3rd and have it shipped directly to you!)

Also don't forget to check out the clearance rack for some GREAT deals --up to 80% off... WOW.. I'm still wondering why i didn't purchase more ribbons and accessories on my last clearance rack order!! I'm pretty certain I'll be adding some more good deals on my December 31st order.. ; )



For the ears, muzzle (nose?), and mane i used the pieces from the builder stocking punch. For the horse's eye i used a small pearl and coloured it with a black sharpie pen. I also used my square punch to "fork" the end of the DSP.

Hope you like... : )

Stitched Stocking Clean and Simple

In my last post i shared a quick simple SASable card. This one is very similar...I used the same layout but switched up the Chocolate Chip embossed card sotck with some Designer Series Paper (DSP) and changed the center image from the ornament to a stocking! I was playing around with some different colours to see what my options where with the Jolly Holiday DSP. This DSP was featured in last years SU catty and i must of loved it so much because i found an unopened package!! With a SAS fundraiser coming up i decided it was time to use it up. Although i was testing the waters with this design and the colours i'm sad to say this card didn't make the cut. I really love the colour combo but my judging panel voted for a different colour combo so i'll be back tomorrow to show you which card made the cut.. : )

Stitched Stocking Stamp a Stack card..

Here's another one of my Holiday Stamp a Stack (SAS) cards. If you've booked a SAS card class with me for the month of November this will be one of the 3 designs you'll be creating!!

If you haven't booked your SAS date it's not to late. --only 64 days until christmas..---eeeeeeks...did i scare you..? {big smile} Remember now is a great time to book a christmas card class with your friends and family!! You'll have the opportunity to create all your christmas cards in one sitting!! I've done most of the planning already...i've come up with the card designs, pre cut all the card stock and supplies needed for the cards... all you need to do is pick the date, invite some friends and have your adhesive and smiles ready to go!! Pop me an email and we can confirm a date and discuss all the details.


This layout was designed by stampin buddy Louise!! Isn't she so creative.. : ) : )

She created the layout with a Cherry Cobbler Stocking and used the "Happy Holidays" greeting from the stamp set Holiday Happiness which fit nicely into the polka dot Four Frames stamp she used. I really liked her card but thought since i didn't have the cherry cobbler ribbon or the greeting i'd play around with different colours and greetings to match the ribbon i had. i played around with all the different colours. i also switched up the night of navy card stock to cherry cobbler and stamped a night of navy stocking......oooooooh there are so many ways to make this design work!! Here's the card i decided to show you today!!



Don't you just love the new stitched stocking stamp set and punch to match!! Loving it!! AND the new silver glimmer paper is sooooooooooo much fun!! adds a tiny bit of bling to each holiday card.. and i'm sure it will definitely bring smiles to the person you send the card too..!! : )
