Merry Christmoose!!!

Happy Friday Stampin' Friends!

I'll bet anything the last time you went through your craft supplies you thought to yourself, "gee, I sure wish Stampin'Up! would come up with some more fun punches...."  Hey, guess what! Your wish came true!  The Holiday Catalog is full of new punches and I'm sharing my favorite today, the moose!  It coordinates with a wonderful stamp set as well so you can stamp and/or punch all the moose you need for your great ideas. I actually live in a place where the moose live too, although you don't see them everyday, like deer!  They are gorgeous, graceful and absolutely huge creatures. They are also fun to use for crafting.  

Here are some quick ideas for you using my moose punch:

I actually did use the moose stamp on this card before I punched out the moose, but my ink color and paper color were too dark to see it well. The trees, boughs and pinecones are part of the set and I used one of the "Frosted Frames" dies for my background piece.

For my second card, I wanted to play with some of the new Plaid Designer Series Paper, the tree punch and the moose punch. I did have to cut the scarf out by hand ;)

This card features the moose walking through a quiet morning, snowy scene, created by the "Feels Like Frost" 6 x 6" Designer Series Paper. This paper is so easy to grab and create something special with.

Finally, I just had to make a card featuring this cute raccoon!  It's part of the stamp set as well and I just love him.  This time I used a pine tree from the "Winter Woods" stamp set. I did some shadow stamping by inking up the tree stamp once and then stamping three times, in different, overlapping places.

Just in case you have to have a moose punch, I want to show you the bundle so you can see the great stamps that go with it. You can buy the stamps or punch separately or as a bundle and save 10%.



What a fun way to add some adventure and outdoors to your Christmas crafting!  Check these supplies out and all the rest of Stampin'Up!'s full line of papercrafting supplies at the online store. Simply click on "shop now" and you will be directed to my online store.

Happy Stampin',
