Good Sunday morning stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? It was crazy busy yesterday at the dog bakery. I must have gotten to pet at least 100 dogs/puppies yesterday which is always so much fun. I’m so happy the event was yesterday since it’s a very rainy day today. Today is our quarterly team meeting which I always enjoy. I just love getting together with other team members and spending time talking and making cards.

I have a speedy quick card for you today using some Online Exclusive products. This one is perfect it you have a lot of holiday cards to make and don’t want to make them too difficult. If you’d like to see how I made it, Click Here to see my Instagram reels. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Horse & Sleigh Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the One Horse Open Sleigh 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I adhered a One Horse Open Sleigh DSP card front to a One Horse Open Sleigh DSP mat using Stampin’ Seal.

I adhered the layered panel to a Boho Blue card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a strip of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP, I stamped the sentiment from the Horse & Sleigh stamp set in Versamark Ink. I sprinkled it with White Embossing Powder and set it using the Heat Tool. I angled the ends using my Paper Trimmer. I adhered a piece of Boho Blue 3/8″ Textured Ribbon to the back of the sentiment and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Adhesive Backed Snowflake Assortments to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from Horse & Sleigh stamp set in Boho Blue Ink on a panel of Basic White. I adhered a strip of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to an Early Espresso mat then to the inside of the Boho Blue card base.

To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the pine tree image from the Horse & Sleigh stamp set on the envelope front in Mossy Meadow Ink. I stamped the snowflake image from the Horse & Sleigh stamp set in Boho Blue Ink, stamping off once on scrap paper. I adhered a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like the card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!

In response to changing policies at Stampin’ Up – I’m adjusting my Ordering Gift policy as well.  I’m having to get a little more tough on the adding of Host codes when you place your order thru my Online Store.

Not to worry – you’re still going to get that $10 ordering gift for orders of $50 (before shipping & tax) or greater.  And the gift is still any 1 SU! product up to that $10 value – which includes some of our fun Host Sets!

But – if you DO NOT use the Host code for your orders of less than $150 (this is the RETAIL total before Shipping & Handling), then you’ll have two options:

1. You’ll need to call Stampin’ Up! (1-800-Stamp-Up) and ask them to add it for you. They’re very helpful and will get it done quickly!  OR….
2. If your order was over the $50 threshold but under $150, then…you’ll forfeit that $10 ordering gift and rewards – this is the Bummer Option – and I REALLY don’t want to do this, SO please remember to add my Current Host Code.
