Make Great Memories this December!

Has 2020 been a difficult year for you? That's a silly question, right? While 2020 has not exactly been the year any of us imagined, I'm hoping to end it on a good note. December brings lots of traditions and Christmas fun, and I want to make this month a good one for my family. To document those memories, I've created a December Photo Album, and I want to offer it as a class for you so that you can preserve your memories this month too!
 

To create the album, we'll use the Wonder of the Season Memories & More Card Pack, which includes some beautiful cards that are perfect for making Christmas cards as well! If you'd like, I have an optional add-on class that will allow you to make 10 Christmas cards (or more!) as well.
 

Or perhaps you're not that crafty, but you like this idea and want a finished album that you can add your photos too. I'm here for you too! Check out the options for this class:
Option #1 ($55): This option includes a Black 6 x 8" Photo Album, 2 packages of Photo Pocket Pages, the Wonder of the Season Memories & More Card Pack, and a package of Wonderful Gems. I'll also include a few cardstock pieces that you'll need, as well as instructions for putting your album together.
Option #2 ($65): Want the album, but you'd rather have it put together for you? This option is for you! I'll make your album for you and send it to you ready to fill with photos and memories.
Option #3 ($79): This option includes everything in Option #1, PLUS the Wonder of the Season Memories & More Cards & Envelopes and the Wonder of the Season Ribbon Combo Pack. In addition to creating a photo album, you'll also make 10 Christmas cards.
Option #4 ($15): This option includes the tutorial only (for both the album and the cards).

You will not need any stamps or inks to complete the album or cards. You will need adhesives. I recommend Stampin' Seal or Stampin' Seal +, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, and Stampin' Dimensionals and Mini Glue Dots if you are making the cards.
The deadline to sign up for this class is December 10. I will ship your class kit to you no later than December 20. If you pay your invoice promptly, I will add your items to my next order and you will get your kit sooner.

I did a short video showing the album in more detail, and it will hopefully give you a better idea of what you'll get when you order this class. I don't have a dedicated spot to do my videos right now, and little time to film or edit them (thanks, 2020), so this video is not quite as polished as I'd like, but I think it will help explain this idea.
 


And finally, if you're looking for ideas of activities to do with your family this month, here is a great list to get you going! I'm pretty sure in our family, the activities will involve a lot of baking!

You can sign up for this class here. Let's make this a December to remember, in a good way!

Happy Stamping!

October Christmas Card Club: Sneak Peek

Today I have a sneak peek of this month's Christmas Card Club for you! This month, I used the Wrapped in Christmas stamp set. It has so many great sentiments that you can use on your Christmas cards!
 

Every month, you will get the supplies to make 8 cards - 2 each of 4 designs - plus products that you'll use on your cards and the cardstock cut and ready to assemble. For example, this month I am planning on including a 1/2 package of the Heartwarming Hugs paper, a roll of Real Red Sheer Ribbon, and a package of Wonderful Gems. You'll use these items on your cards, plus have some leftover to use on other projects! You can join or cancel your subscription to this club at anytime - there is no 6 or 12-month commitment, BUT for every 6 consecutive months that you subscribe, you'll earn a $25 product credit. 

The club kits do not include stamps, ink, or adhesives. As a perk of belonging to the club, I will offer you the option to add on the stamps and ink that I used that month at catalog cost (I cover the tax and shipping). You are always welcome to use stamps and ink that you already own.
 

If you'd like to subscribe, the deadline to get the kit with the cards pictured above is October 15. If you subscribe after that, you'll receive the next month's kit. You can register here. Please contact me if you have any questions.

Happy Stamping!

Brushed Foil Christmas Cards

Have you started on your Christmas cards yet? I am just starting on mine, and I have a few to share with you today! I used a bunch of brand new products from the August-December Mini Catalog. Take a look:

The card was so pretty in Gold and Shaded Spruce, but I knew it would be beautiful with Gold and Cherry Cobbler too, so I had to do it both ways. Which color do you like better?


The trees in the background were embossed using the Evergreen Forest embossing folder on Brushed Foil Cardstock. This paper embossed is GORGEOUS! The sentiment is from the For Unto Us stamp set, one of my favorite items from this catalog. It will definitely be my go to set for Christmas cards this year! 

Here is a full list of supplies:

Stamps: For Unto Us

Ink: Shaded Spruce, Cherry Cobbler

Paper: Shaded Spruce, Cherry Cobbler, Whisper White, Brushed Foil Cardstock, 'Tis the Season DSP

Embellishments: Wonderful Gems, Wonder of the Season Ribbon Combo Pack

Tools: Evergreen Forest EF, Tasteful Labels Dies

Adhesives: Stampin' Seal, Stampin' Dimensionals, Mini Glue Dots

Happy Stamping!
