Wishes and Wonder Bundle of Fun

 Hi Stampers!

How did your weekend go? We are having the kind of October we usually only get to dream about! Gorgeous weather, pretty leaves, blue skies and mild temperatures - I hope it lasts for a few more weeks at least! Even though there's no snow in sight right now, I'm still in a festive mood and having fun with so many of our amazing Christmas-themed products from the Aug-Dec mini catalog. The set I'm sharing today is full of nostalgia and memories featuring a reindeer, the North Pole, Christmas greenery and a magical sleigh! Let's get started and I'll tell you about some of my ideas!

I'm sharing my favorite card first as it showcases almost all of the products! There are stamps and dies in this bundle and they really work well together. I started with inking up my background with the new "Stacked Stone" background stamp in a light Sahara Sand ink. I then stamped, colored and die cut the reindeer, sleigh and North Pole badge. The coordinating dies make cutting these a breeze and there some nice greenery sprig dies that I used behind my sleigh. I really love the vintage feel of this card. 

For my next idea, I incorporated some stamps and dies from the "Mountain Air" bundle. It's always a win/win when you can combine products and get more mileage out of them!  Instead of coloring the reindeer, I just stamped him on Soft Suede card stock and cut him out! I used some shadow stamping on my mountains to create a little more depth. 

This card features one of the sentiments of our featured stamp set as well as a greenery bundle that is easy to color with our Stampin' Blends and then die cut. If you look close, you will notice that my red triangles in the corners are actually die cut from felt! What a great texture addition to a project! For this card, I also incorporated some "Tis the Season" Designer Series Paper which happens to be on sale all month!

My last project was a quick tag that features the embossing die included in this bundle. It's a larger reindeer than the stamped one and the die embosses and cuts a perfect image.  There is also a tag die and you can see I used it for my background. I love the zigzag edge and stitching detail.

It's fun to share some ideas with you to help with your holiday crafting and especially papercrafting! I have more ideas then time but hope to get going on some more things this week so keep checking back!

As always, my supplies are listed below and a click on any of them will direct you to the online store for easy shopping. Let me know if you have any questions and I'd be happy to help.

Happy Stampin'!
