Can you smell the pine yet???

I can... I love Halloween, it's just fun... but Christmas always catches me by surprise!!

This year I am starting early!! I don't know about you, but I find myself giving gift cards more often these days and sometimes feels a bit impersonal... but NOT if you make a HANDMADE gift card holder! Suddenly, your loved one will feel SO special!

Using the Stampin' Up! Blending Brushes are so important when working with such FINE elements. The brushes glide so smoothly, so it doesn't bend or break your die cuts, no matter how delicate they are!

I used the new Evening Evergreen, Cherry Cobbler, Early Expresso and Crumb Cake Inks!

The Stampin' Up Peaceful Deer Bundle is SO much FUN!  

I remember watching Bambi when I was a child... no it wasn't black & white... because it was at the Drive In!!  LOL!
Ever since my tears dried up, I have been in love with cute little deer.  I love this little deer, especially because it is a PUNCH!  Who doesn't prefer to just line up and PUNCH!

And if this little bundle wasn't fun ENOUGH... Stampin' Up had FREE matching DSP in the Sale-A-Bration catalog!  


This card is a Slide and Lock technique.  Did you notice the CUTE black and white striped enamel dots???  I think this was the MOST fun!  I created these out of Perler Beads!  YES!! Just stand them on end and bake at 350 for about 13 minutes and PRESTO!.. you have enamel dots!  

I have created a tutorial to show you how easy it is to create this fun card!
