Merry Patterns

Hi Stampin' friends,
I'm back today with more details about a great Hostess promotion for September and October. Don't let the word "hostess" throw you... this simply means a big order, whether you have one all for yourself or you have a party and combine some orders from your guests or you get some friends jump in on an order with you.  Stampin'Up! is offering a free stamp set with every order over $300! It's called "Merry Patterns" and it has a lot to love about it!  Reindeer, Nordic patterns and candles!
 Here are some cards I made to try it out



What I like about this set is that you can stamp the outline of the images and leave it at that or you can two step stamp with the outline and then the fill in pattern design.  Here's a look at the stamp set so you can see what I'm talking about:



It was surprisingly easy to stamp the fill in part as the stamps are photopolymer, so completely see-through. I haven't seen any candle images in quite a while with Stampin'Up!, at least that I can think of, so I was really happy to see these.  While it's too bad this set can't be purchased outright, there are creative ways to earn it by combining orders with friends and then sharing it!  Contact me for for information or ideas ;)

Did you notice the large embossed snowflake on the first card? That's a great new product from the Holiday Catalog that is available for purchase!  It's called "Winter Wonder Textured IMpressions Embossing Folder" (#144643) . It can be featured on a card or tucked up in a corner like I did on this card. Snowflakes are a favorite image of winter and the holidays and this embossing folder would be a good addition to your toolbox!

And there's more!  Here's a fun video from Stampin'Up! featuring this great stamp set:
