Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

So sorry for the late post today, but I know you understand who sometimes life gets in the way! Besides extra hours at work, I’m busy planning several upcoming events …

• Thoughtful Branches Class
• Hostess Appreciation Party
• Holiday Catalog Launch Party
• Holiday Retreat

I’m excited to share a brand new stamp set and thinlits that will be in the Holiday Catalog! I’m not sure I could pick a favorite so I decided to start with the big guy … You got it!! SANTA CLAUS!

I’ve teamed up the “Greetings from Santa” stamp set with the “Detailed Santa” Thinlits Die to create this cute card …

The thinlit die makes it super simple to create this card, in fact … it does all the work. The “Merry Christmas” greeting comes from the “Greetings from Santa stamp set, and so does the “Ho! Ho! Ho!

I used Dazzling Diamonds glitter to jazz up Santa’s hat and the surrounding swirls.

The inside of the card has Santa’s list stamped in Basic Gray and the question of the season is …”Naughty or Nice” stamped in Real Red. This is complemented with the new “Candy Cane Lane” Washi Tape. I LOVE IT!! and used it on the front of the cards as well.

You are going to LOVE the new Holiday Catalog … so many wonderful new items to share with you.

Thanks for checking in on me today! I’ll be back tomorrow with my Simply Sunday series of cards.

Have a wonderful weekend ~
