I'll have an after Christmas sale posted tonight!  I know, don't ya just love a tease?

Merry Christmas! An e-card for you from Jeannette

Happy Holidays from Jeannette Wishing you every happiness this Holiday Season and prosperity in the New Year. Thank you for being here and checking out my blog. I look forward to us sharing, laughing and crafting in 2010.    Here's a fun card from me to you.  Just give the image a click and enjoy.  Love this little bear!    All the best to you and your family,  Jeannette Swain Jeannette Swain, Your Independent Stampin Up Demonstrator   www.StampsNWhatnot.com

O Christmas Tree, O Christmas Tree

It's snowing hard here in Virginia so I've got time to play.  YAY!

I thought I would share a card that I came up with using the Stampin Up exclusive Sizzix die called "O Christmas Tree".  This is much easier to make than it looks and is so much fun!  Believe it or not, there were only 4 little pieces of redline adhesive used!

Here is the card front

Here it is open.  Don't you just love it? 

 
 
Here are more images at different angles.  Note how the tree folds flat when the card is closed.

Click on the thumbnails to see these up close.

 

Now for the details. 

All materials used were Stampin Up.

Stamp Sets:  Snow Swirled #111690, $24.95, pg. 36;  Medallion, #115223, $17.95, pg. 133 (Makes and excellent tree skirt!), So Swirly Stampin Wheel (retired)

Inks:  Chocolate Chip, Old Olive, Whisper White

Cardstock & Papers:  Chocolate Chip, Bashful Blue, Kiwi Kiss (retired 2008-9 In Color), Frosty Day DSP (retired)

I used a Stampin Wheel to stamp the cardstock for the tree before I ran it thru the Big Shot.  Makes things super easy and was a real time saver. 

Have you tried these trees yet?  They are so much fun.  I would love to see what you've come up with!

Until next time,

Jeannette Swain
