Hello Stampin’ Friends ~

Today I’m going to share the “Have a Hoot” stamp set while showing a progression of simply stamping to the avid stamper who wants it all … These cards were created by the home offices of Stampin’ Up!

Let’s begin with our first card …

CASUAL
We kept things simple on the first version of this cute card. A few simple layers, a splash of color, ribbon, and a sentiment popped up using Stampin’ Dimensionals. This cheerful, little project takes just minutes to make and would be the perfect solution for a casual crafter workshop.

AVID
Step up the charming second card by running the tag through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Peek-A-Hoot Dies for a stitched-edge look. Fold the gold-trimmed satin ribbon in half, insert the ends through the hole in the tag, then pull them snugly through the loop at the end of the ribbon. We added a little extra pop to this card with a layer of Poinsettia Place Designer Series Paper, some Gold Glitter Enamel Dots, and heat embossing.

STEPPED-UP AVID
Our fanciest card is a real hoot. We embossed the card front using the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine and the Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder, adhered die-cut branches, and added a strip of Plush Poinsettia Specialty Paper. Perfect!

Whoo wouldn’t love to have a Christmas cardmaking party featuring these cute, outdoorsy cards? We certainly wood . . . er . . . would! Ask me about a “Facebook Virtual Party”!!

I thank you for joining me today, hope your day is good one! Enjoy the kick-off to the weekend ~
