Winter Wonderland

Snow makes me think of new beginnings, so as we prepare to close the chapter on 2017 and open a new one for 2018, I challenged the SIS designers to create projects using winter or snow as their inspiration.  Let's dive right in and see what they've created.

First up is Karla Anders with her snowflake card which is definitely a Work of Heart!  Head over to Karla's blog here for more of her heartfelt projects. 

Then we have Rachel Yurkanin's winter wonderland card full of snowflakes. Perfect little notecard. Head over to her blog for more details.

And finally, here is my favor/gift box.  I filled an Acetate Card Box with enough supplies for two cups of hot chocolate and created a decorative belly band with products from the soon to end Holiday Catalog.  Get all the details here on my blog.

Thank you so much for joining us today!  Please be sure to subscribe to the Sisters in Stamping blog so that you get instant updates on our posts.  

You don't want to miss all that we have in store for you in 2018!

Quick & Easy last-minute Christmas ideas

  Happy Friday to you!  Can you believe Christmas is just 3 short days away?  For that reason we wanted to share some quick & easy last-minute card and gift ideas with you.  Thanks and enjoy!

  Up first we have this great little altered stamp case created by guest designer Cindy Blekas.  Be sure to visit her blog post here so you can see what is on the inside - what a great gift idea that can be enjoyed all year long.

  And next is this fun snowflake card idea from Rachel Yurkanin.  It would be great to have a few extras on hand to give out and if you have any left over they're perfect for January birthdays!  Please check out Rachel's  blog post here for more details.

  Finally, here is my super simple last-minute gift idea - it's a DSP wrapped large candy bar.  I embellished it with some ribbon and a tag.  For more information, please hop over to my blog post here.

From all of us here at the Sisters in Stamping, we hope you and your families have a very Merry Christmas!!

Gift Card Holders

Welcome back friends, and welcome to DECEMBER!  That's right...can you believe this year is nearly over already?!  Over the next 24 days folks will finish up their Christmas shopping and preparations, so the Sisters In Stamping designers wanted to give you some great ideas for gift card giving.  As paper crafters, we don't like to just throw a gift card in an envelope (although we'll admit that it has happened a time or two in the past...).  Even gift cards deserve some pretty packaging!

First up is this festive gift card holder by guest designer Cindy Blekas.  Her little reindeer stocking is totally adorable!  Is this a card or something else.?  Just head on over to Cindy's blog here to find out and get all the details. 

Debbie Naylor's gift card holder also features a reindeer and mistletoe.  I love her use of embellishments.  Have you seen this ribbon in the Holiday Catalog?  Hop on over to Debbie's blog here for more on this great card!

 

Next up is Jennifer Rawling's gift card holder that will certainly warm any coffee lovers heart, even when the snow and ice comes to visit!  Stop by Jennifer blog here to see what you need to know about recreating this project yourself.  

Lastly, we have Karla's gift card holder go to her blog to see the inside of her gift card holder.
 

Well, that's all for us today.  We hope these projects have inspired you to WOW your friends, family, classmates, or coworkers with some amazing gift card holders.  Have a fabulous weekend and join us again next week!
