SCRAPBOOKING YOUR CHRISTMAS MEMORIES WITH STAMPIN' UP! BIG SHOT AND PUNCHES - MAKE YOUR OWN HOLLY AND BERRIES

With all the spare time over the holidays why not scrapbook your christmas photos.

Above are random photos i took of my daughter during our christmas shopping expeditions.

I used the big shot to cut out some flourishes and on top of the flourishes are some holly and berries..

The holly and berries are made with the Stampin' Up! large oval and circle punches and the Stampin' Up! peircing tool.

Simply punch out as many large oval punches in old olive or garden green card stock, using your 1/2" and 3/8" circle punches, place the punch circle half way across the edge of the oval card punchie and punch them out, go around your oval punchie to create the desired effect.  Use your Peircing tool to create the viens in holly.  Now using real read card stock, punch out 1 x 1/2" and 2 x 3/8"circles to create the berries.  Repeat the above instructions to create as many holly and berries as you would like.

STAMPIN' UP! AUSTRALIA SUMMER MINI 2012 - STOCKING PUNCH & STOCKING STITCHES WHILE STOCKS LAST - ONCE SOLD GONE FOR EVER

The highlight for me in this years Summer Mini catalogue has been the Stocking Stitches Stamp set and

Co - Orindating punch.  A fantastic set.  The good news is they  are currently available, the sad news is that they will not be returning in our Main Ideas book and catalogue in 2012.  So they are definately a limited release item and once stock has been sold, they will be no longer available.  So if you have been hanging off on buying this fantastic christmas set, then i highly recommend not waiting any longer, so that you dont miss out.  This set will be sadly missed.

CHRISTMAS CARD IDEAS WITH STAMPIN' UP! SPEED BALL BRAYER

Being so proactive and involved in Christmas cards for our Australian Troops and co ordinating them, there is little time left for me to make my personal christmas cards for my family and friends.  So i need a quick and simple styled card that i can crank out 33 of them relatively quickly. Brayering and experiementing with colour is fastly becoming my most favourite method of technique for making cards, especially christmas cards.  The stampin' up! speedball brayer is an excellent choice for brayering with and the choice of stampin up ink pads with the vast range of colours makes it even easier.

Such colours as used i this very card, i mean can you believe that this card started out as a white glossy plain peice of card stock.  It just blows me away.  Ok so the colours used are:  So Saffron, Crumb Cake, early expresso and soft suede.  Different techniques also used in this card other than brayering are masking and sponging to give different desired effects.  Hope you like it.

EXTRA LARGE CHRISTMAS CARD WITH STAMPIN' UP! LETTERS TO SANTA AND LETTERS TO SANTA ACCENTS

The letters to santa designer series paper from Stampin' Up! is very unique.  I know that i have shared with you all before this card, however i decided to replicate it again now its closer to christmas and besides i needed to use up the remainder of the Letters to Santa Designer Series paper, to finish of my christmas cards.  Hope you like it, even more so i hope my mum likes her christmas card.

CHRISTMAS CARD IDEAS WITH STAMPIN' UP! BRAYER AND BRAYERING TECHNIQUE

Recently i learned the Brayering technique, and i have been playing around with the colours.  Stampin' Up! have a great speed ball brayer, which i used in the above card.  The colours used are so saffron for the moon, early expresso for the tree and crumb cake for the back ground with the brayer and a sponge.

Hope you like it cheers Tracey
