Crafty Challenge Blog Hop - November Color Challenge

The Crafty Collaborations Team is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world. Each month we participate in several collaborative projects, including Blog Hops, like this one to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing.

Today features the monthly Crafty Challenge projects created using the below colors. 

I've been creating holiday cards with the Boughs of Holly DSP. The evergreen design is my new favorite. I love how peaceful and wintry it looks. I have a few birthdays in December that I thought these colors would work well for a male card. 

The colors in the DSP lend itself well to this color challenge. The Wintry 3D embossing folder adds nice dimension and is a new folder for me, so it was fun to give it a try!

#DOswts399 Tags/Bookmark Inspiration Hop

Welcome to the DO Stamper Stars Blog Hop. The DO Stamper Stars is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators who are part of Dawn Olchefkse's leader team. Each month we participate in 2 Blog Hops, like this one, to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing.

Today's project is all about Tags. I decided to turn to the Christmas Gifting Kit. The Coffee & Cards group created these gift card 'tags' during the November session. Most everyone gives out at least 1 gift card during the holiday, so these are great to have on hand. For this hop, I created a card using the majority of the materials from the kit.   

It was very simple, I made a basic white card base, added a layer of paper from the Boughs of Holly DSP and then 'cut' apart the gift card piece that sits behind the punched out image. 

I adhered the other side of the cut apart gift card piece on the inside of the card. In retrospect I would stamp "with LOVE" or 'For someone Special' on the circle die cut. Both are sentiments in the kit stamp set. 

Each of the tags have a leftover die cut piece from the punched-out middle image. I created the below cards using 2 of the different left over die cuts. 

The designer paper is from my retired stash but fit perfectly with the die cut images. This kit is so versatile to use as is or making alternative cards/projects limited only by your creativity!

Winter Holiday Blog Hop

The Crafty Collaborations Team is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world. Each month we participate in several collaborative projects, including Blog Hops, like this one to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing. 

Today's project feature Winter Holidays other than Christmas. Did you know there's over 40 holidays in the next couple of months besides Christmas? So many to choose from, it was kind of hard to pick. I decided to do a project in honor of International Men's Day Celebrated on Nov. 19. 

My husband has been working at the same business for 34 years, in fact he became the majority owner 16 years ago. His contribution to our family, our community and the lives of the on average 85 employees we employ is something to celebrate. We sold the business in August and kept everyone employed. We decided to celebrate by taking a 2+week road trip/cruise vacation and it was wonderful!   

These are just 4 of the 200+ photos I took on our trip. I love how this page turned out to commemorate my husband in honor of International Men's Day! You/We did it sweetie!!

Scrapbooking Global Blog Hop - November 2022 Scrapbooking Your Way

The Scrapbooking Global Team is comprised of Stampin' Up! Demonstrators from around the world. Each month we participate in a scrapbooking Blog Hop Theme, like this one, to inspire all of us in our passion for crafting. Our Goal is to create, share, and inspire every crafter to keep our creative energy flowing.

The Creative Design Team has chosen the simple topic of Scrapbooking Your way for this month's theme. 

I've had a photo sitting out of my husband and I with our daughter on the night of her Highschool Junior prom night that I've been wanting to create a page for. First and foremost, my daughter has always been so beautiful and she photos so well because of her beautiful smile. The prom dress she purchased for this event was beautiful. It was above budget, but we made a deal that we'd purchase it as along as she made use of it for 2 years, or trade with another friend for the next year, which she did! 

The colors of her dress were perfect for the Hues of Happiness Designer Series paper! I also had a bunch of the flowers from the paper die cut already so I used as many as possible in the layout. It was a bit tricky getting them secured, but mini glue dots were the easiest to use in this process.
