Hi Friends,
When I first saw this Stampin’ Up! Farmhouse Christmas stamp set, it reminded me of the town I grew up in.
The Ice Man, Fish Man, Rag Man and dairy farmers ALL had pick ups just like this one!
And I remember at Christmas, trees were delivered and picked up in this same truck.
When I saw this stamp set, I KNEW I had to have it!
First I took a base of Cherry Cobbler then layered a piece of Mossy Meadow on top.
I did run that layer through the Big Shot with the Tin Tile Dynamic Embossing Folder.
Using the Festive Farmhouse DSP, I added a strip to balance the Mossy Meadow layer.
Next I added a piece of Burlap ribbon and beveled and frayed the edges.

I colored the truck image with our Stampin’ Blends in Old Olive, Cherry Cobbler, Basic Black and Daffodil Delight.
Then I cut that image out with the Layering Ovals and backed it with a Cherry Cobbler layer.
Dimensionals popped it up for added interest!
Added a few Rhinestones for the headlights and of course pops of Wink of Stella –and ta-da!

Hi Friends,
This too darn cute Stampin’ Up! Signs of Santa Christmas card makes me laugh!
It’s fun to color and fun to paste!

I used the Big Shot with the Santa’s Signpost Framelits to cut out Santa .

Then I colored him using the Stampin’ Blends and added a puff of cotton to his cap with a drop of Fine Tip Glue.
I also used a banner from the Festive Farmhouse DSP with a bit of gold thread in front of it .

Santa is popped up on the Christmas card with Dimensionals and of COURSE I just had to add Wink of Stella here and there!

Hi Friends,
This is a BEAUTIFUL stamp set and Bundle – ” Cake Soiree”
The stamps are so festive and elegant and very easy to use.
This card uses a base of Whisper White card stock cut to the usual 8 1/2′ x 5 1/4′ and scored at 4 1/4′.
Then a layer of Berry Burst cut to 5 1/4′ x 4 and adhered to the base
Next I took a piece of Marina Mist , cut to 5 x 3/3/4″ and ran it through the Big Shot using the Layered Leaves Dynamic Embossing Folder.
Next is a piece of white card stock cut to 3 x 4 1/2″.
I stamped the cake image with Black Archival Ink then used Old Olive, Berry Burst, Marina Mist and Daffodil Delight Markers with an Aqua Painter. (I love coloring!!!)… and of COURSE some Wink of Stella!
This layer was attached using Dimensionals.
I used SIlver Foil Paper backed with Multipurpose Adhesive Sheets to cut out the cake pedestal and plate with the corresponding framelits.
It’s very easy using those Adhesive sheets on small ( or not so small) images. No mess at all!
All done!

Hi Friends,
This card is fun fun fun to make!
I used Floral Statements stamp set along with the Ruffled Dynamic Embossing Folder.
1. The base of this card is Whisper White cut at 8 1/2 x 4 1/4″ and scored at 4 1/4″.
2. Then I took a piece of Rich Razzleberry card stock cut to 5 1/4″ x 4 and ran it through the Big Shot using the Ruffled Folder.
3. I corner rounded the edges of both the Razzleberry and white layers–just for added dimension.
4. Next I stamped the Hello image with Black Archival ink and then the FUN really began!
5. Using Old Olive and Rich Razzleberry Stampin Blends, I colored the flowers and leaves. Of course I HAD to add a touch of Wink of Stella here and there.
6. To finish off the centers of the flowers I added a gold Faceted Gem with our Fine Tip glue.
