Good Saturday morning my stamping friends and welcome to the weekend. I hope you have some fun plans in the works. My plan was I had off all weekend and I was going to bake, bake, bake. As normal, plans change. I have to work at the dog bakery today, they were short staffed, and I don’t know how to say no. Yesterday I got most of my cookies mixed and 3 bar cookies baked off. If I’m not too tired when I get home from work today, I’ll mix the last couple batches and tomorrow morning I’ll be in the kitchen 7am baking. I need to get as much done as possible since my work schedule for the week is all over the place.
Today’s card was designed by one of my awesome team members Rosie Kean. We had our quarterly meeting last Sunday and Rosie was one of the presenters. Here’s my card for today.
I used the Stampin’ Up! Season of Chic Bundle along with the Texture Chic Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.
I started with the 5 1/4″ X 12″ panel of Texture Chic DSP and scored and folded it at 4″ & 8″. I cut the DSP panel from the top right corner to the bottom of the 2nd score line on an angle.
I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Season of Chic Photopolymer Stamp Set on a panel of Basic White cardstock in Evening Evergreen Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Deckled Rectangle Die. I cut a panel of Soft Succulent cardstock using the next largest Deckled Rectangle Die. I adhered the Soft Succulent rectangle to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the sentiment rectangle to the Soft Succulent rectangle using Stampin’ Seal.
I cut out multiple snowflakes from panels of Soft Succulent and White Glimmer Paper using the Chic Dies. I adhered the snowflakes to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and Glue Dots. I added Rhinestones Basic Jewels to the card front.
On the inside, I folded and adhered the cut portion just on the left side using a small amount of Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut a panel of Basic White cardstock using the Deckled Rectangle Dies. I cut a panel of Soft Succulent cardstock using the next largest Deckled Rectangle Die. I stamped the sentiment from the Season of Chic stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on the bottom of the Basic White rectangle. I stamped the snowflake image on the top of the panel in Soft Succulent Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to the Soft Succulent mat. I adhered the layered panel to the top of the inside of the card base. I added a few more of the die cut snowflakes to the inside using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the card base to a Basic White backing panel.
To finish my card, I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the snowflake image from the Season of Chic stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of Texture Chic DSP to the envelope flap.
Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you like my card and will give it a try. Happy stamping!!

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!

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 (excluding cardstock) 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:
- 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….
- 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.

I’m offering a Designer Series Paper share from the January-April 2023 Mini Catalog and I’d love to have you join!! I’m placing my share order early on January 5 and I’m going to use the expedited shipping option so I should be able to have the shares cut, bundled and back out to you during the week of January 9.
How shares work: I order full packs of all of the Designer Series Papers listed below, I cut them into 6″ x 6″ pieces (or 6″ x 12″ pieces for double shares) and give you one panel of each design from each pack on the list. I pack up the paper in a cellophane bag and mail it back out to you just as quickly as I can! Shares give you a good working sample of all of the papers so that you can decide which ones to order in full packs! Designer Series Paper Shares Do Not earn my Creative Stamping Designs Rewards.
