Card Countdown to Christmas - 1More Day

I cased this card from Pinterest. I loved it the way it was so didn't change anything but the overall size of the card.





I hope you have enjoyed the card countdown. I'll be back after the holidays.

I wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year.

Happy Holidays from I Stamp Studio!

Card Countdown to Christmas - 2 More Days

Today's cards are just plain, FUN!!! Do you celebrate with "ugly sweaters"? LOL we used to have a blast with it when I worked at KU. I won't show you all of them...














These cards were inspired by a fun post I saw on Damask Love's blog. The sweater die and the heavy card stock used for the card bases are not from Stampin' Up! but everything else I used is.

Here is the inside:




Are you ready for Christmas?  Only 2 more days...

Card Countdown to Christmas - 3 More Days

Here is another card that uses the Tree Punch from Stampin' Up! I'm back to layers with one. I must admit that I am a lot more comfortable when there is "layering" going on.








The greeting stamps are from a set called "White Christmas."

Sometimes I like to make simpler cards, without a ton of layers. Enjoy your day!

Card Countdown to Christmas - 5 More Days

Today's cards use the scraps from punching out all the small snowflakes. Another nine cards. Yay me!














I made another card using the "Happy Holidays" punchouts from the tags.  After glueing 13 letters onto twine, I decided I was done.  There are still some pieces left but I'm ready to move on to some other cards.  What a time saver though. Over 30 cards from one Paper Pumpkin kit.

Here are the cards I made using the gift tags in the November Paper Pumpkin kit from Stampin' Up!











16 more cards from this kit. I robbed my stash of the usual card stock, designer paper and ribbon.

Card Countdown to Christmas - 7 More Days

These cards use the scrap left from punching out the big snowflakes used on yesterday's cards. If you actually use your scraps - you aren't a hoarder! I used card stock, designer paper and ribbon from my stash. The small silver snowflakes were included in the kit.





Four red. Four green. Another eight cards done.

Card Countdown to Christmas

You all know I love card kits. I especially love the Paper Pumpkin kits from Stampin' Up! The November kit contained stuff for 8 cards and 12 gift tags. I made the cards using the instructions (more or less).




This is the card closed




This is the card open

Everything was included except the Dazzling Diamonds glitter glue used on the front.

Tomorrow I will share some of the cards I made using the rest of the kit.
