Christmastime Is Here

Hello & Happy Saturday!

My girls are off to doggy day spa this morning!

They really need it!

I have lots of laundry to do and also going to make a Pumpkin Roll for Thanksgiving.

I decided to skip the Pumpkin Pie because no one really eats it but Kelsey & I.

Yesterday I got all my Christmas treats done!

I just need to sit and get everything priced now.

I also went thru my card rack and weeded things out and made sure all my Christmas cards had inside sayings in them. It was a busy day but i'm glad that's all done!

I have a small Gable Box to show today that I whipped up with some pretty Christmastime Is Here Specialty DSP. The Christmastime Is Here Suite is available only until the end of November.

I thought it was so pretty, I had to get it!

I wrapped DSP all the way around the box.

The sentiment I embossed with gold embossing powder.

The piece under the sentiment panel is diecut from the coordinating dies. 

The shimmery ribbon & gold enamel dots are also part of the suite.

Project Details:

Stamps: Christmastime Is Here 

Ink: Versamark

Cardstock: Whisper White, Gold Foil Paper, Christmastime Is Here Specialty DSP

Accessories: Shimmer Gable Box (retired), Heat Gun, Gold Embossing Powder, Roses Dies, Gold Shimmer Ribbon, Gold Glittered Enamel Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Glue

The Shimmer Gable Boxes I picked up a few months ago from the Clearance Rack.

They are a nice size and will be just right for a bag of cookies for Christmas!

Anyways, you will be seeing more of this suite as we move closer to Christmas!

I love everything about these products!

Christmas Gable Box

Good Morning & Happy Sunday!

Yesterday was such a fun day with the girls and our World Cardmaking Day event!

We stamped Halloween projects/cards, ate and had some good conversations!

I love that about those girls!

After they left Shawn & I headed out to do some shopping.

My fridge was getting pretty empty!

I will start sharing those Halloween projects starting tomorrow.

I haven't gotten a chance yet to take pictures.

I do have a beautiful gable box to share today!

Gable boxes have made a big comeback in the Stampin Up Annual Catalog.

I have several from years ago that were at the bottom of a drawer in my stamp room.

I took some time this past week to dig them out and play with one.

I can use them for Christmas this year to put cookies in or a gift.

The DSP is from the SU Holiday Mini Catalog called All Is Bright. 

I layered that on top of Gold Foil Paper.

The sentiment panel is from the new Merry Christmas to All Set.  It is embossed with Gold Embossing Powder. The Real Red Ribbon is retired. 

Project Details:

Stamps: Merry Christmas to All

Ink: Versamark

Cardstock: Gold Foil, Whisper White, Real Red, All Is Bright DSP

Accessories: Gable Box, Stitched Shapes Framelits, Circle Layering Framelits, Gold Rhinestones, Gold EP., Heat Gun, Real Red Ribbon, Glue Dots, Dimensionals, Tombow Multipurpose Liquid Glue

That DSP is very pretty with some realistic prints in it.

Great for making those special holiday gifts!
