Heartwarming Hugs

HEARTWARMING HUGS SUITE

Happy times spent enjoying a cup of coffee with friends or the joy of a sweet, hot cocoa after playing in the snow are heartwarming traditions of the holiday season.

What's better than a hot cup of coffee or cocoa with a good friend? How about gifting them a special gift with just those things?   With so many holiday memories wrapped up in a shared treat, it's no wonder the Heartwarming Hugs Suite is a huge hit this season. Whether you fill the Mini Coffee Cups with treats or create custom packaging for a gift card from a favourite coffee shop, you'll find this suite is the perfect way to share the warmth of the holiday seasons with those you love.

The Warm Hugs stamp set and coordinating Warm Wraps Dies go together like hot chocolate and marshmallows. Bundle the pair and save 10% with the Warm Hugs Bundle.

Today I'm sharing a sweet note card tutorial that showcases an unexpected way to use dies to create an eyelet background design.

Sincerely, Debra

Trimming the Town

TRIMMING THE TOWN SUITE

Just in time for those unexpect reciprocal gifts!  Now is a great time to make something adorable and make a difference! The Coming Home stamp set (#153500) is part of the popular Trimming The Town suite and is the August-December 2020 Mini Catalogue Making a Difference stamp set.

When you purchase the Coming Home stamp set you'll be a part of supporting adoption, foster care, and infertility charities.

Personally, I love how the Home Together Dies coordinate with both the stamps and the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper (#153491). It makes is simple and fast to create layered scenes on card and decor projects.

I think you'll love this whole suite!

Sincerely, Debra

Poinsettia Place

POINSETTIA PLACE SUITE

Flowers speak to me, but Poinsettia's YELL to me....I just think the velvet petals are so amazing, they just scream Christmas. When you are looking to create traditional and elegant Christmas cards, the Poinsettia Place Suite is one you'll reach for year after year.

Special touches like the flocked vellum in the Plush Poinsettia Specialty Paper (#153486), the dazzling Beaded Pearls (#153534), and the elegant Real Red Sheer Ribbon (#153535) make this suite stand out and shine. I also love that the Poinsettia Dies (#153522) have duplicates of several dies. That means when you stamp the layering poinsettia and leaf images from the coordinating Poinsettia Petals stamp set (#153475), you can save time by cutting out two of each at one time. We all love to save time!

From traditional colours to modern, monochrome elegance you'll be amazed at all the different styles you can create with this suite.

Below, I'm sharing a tutorial that combines a bit of rustic charm with elegant gold and embossed accents. I can't wait to see what you'll create with this gorgeous suite!

Sincerely, Debra

Wonder of the Season

WONDER OF THE SEASON SUITE When you think of Christmas what do you imagine? I don't have visions of sugarplums dancing in my head, but I do picture reindeer, sleighs with bells, and a cozy home decorated with mistletoe, lights, and garland. You'll find those traditional colours and iconic images of Christmas in the Wonder of the Season Suite. This mega suite includes two stamp and die combos, two Designer Series Paper choices, a Memories & More Card Pack with coordinating decorative Card & Envelopes, plus embellishments and ribbon to put the perfect finishing touches on your holiday projects. Even a perfectly traditional stamp set can take on a modern flair when combined with non-traditional colours and layout. I think you'll love the unexpected look of the trendy card I'm sharing in the tutorial below. Which style is your favourite traditional or non-traditional?
