Good Thursday morning my stamping friends, HAPPY DECEMBER!!! Welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. If you are starting with me, thank you. I hope you will stop by everyone’s blog to see what they have created this week. If you are hopping over from Akiko’s blog, thank you for stopping by. This week we have Theme Challenge. Here is my card using this week’s Theme.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Joyful Flurry Bundle for my card today.

This is our theme for this week.

I started by randomly stamping the snowflake images from the Stampin’ Up! Joyful Flurry Cling Stamp Set in Versamark Ink all over the Starry Sky card front. I sprinkled the panel with Clear Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I adhered the card front to a Starry Sky card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Joyful Flurry stamp set in Starry Sky Ink. I used one of the snowflake dies that doesn’t completely cut out the image, from the Frosted Flurry Dies and cut above the sentiment. I cut the panel using my Deckled Rectangle Dies.

I adhered the Basic White panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Iridescent Rhinestones Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside, I stamped the sentiment from the Joyful Flurry stamp set in Starry Sky Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the snowflake images from the Joyful Flurry stamp set in Starry Sky Ink, stamped off once or twice in the corners. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Starry Sky mat then to the inside of the Starry Sky card base.

To complete my card, I decorated a Basic white Medium Envelope. I stamped the snowflake images from the Joyful Flurry stamp set in Starry Sky Ink on the envelope front and flap some stamped full strength and some stamped off.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Now that you’ve seen my card, take a minute to hop through and see everyone’s projects today.

If you need any stamping supplies, I’d love to be your Demonstrator. Just click HERE to go directly to my online store or drop me an email if you have any questions. 

MY CURRENT HOST CODE IS:   7PTW7A3H

Use this host code when placing an order with me. When you order $50 or greater you will receive a free gift from me! If your order is over $150, please do not use this code, but you’ll still get the free gift. The free gift is your choice of any 1 item valued up to $10.00 from the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog or the July – December 2022 Mini Catalog!  Unfortunately packs of cardstock are no longer an option for a free gift. Shipping has become too expensive to ship and it’s costing me as much to ship as the cardstock costs. For any orders $50 or more I will also send you my monthly class tutorials.  Click HERE or go to my Customer Rewards for more details and to see what this month’s tutorials are.

Please remember to use my current Host Code and make sure that you can see my name on the final checkout page listed as your Demonstrator when you order so that you know that you’re ordering with me and you’ll get my rewards! 

Happy Stamping, Karen

*********************************************************************************************************

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.
