Hello Friend - Country Livin'

Hello friends!  To my readers celebrating Hanukkah, I hope you have a lovely final night!  Per my son's request, we'll be indulging in jelly donuts tonight to celebrate the last night of Hanukkah, which he learned about in school.  I love public education - he's becoming a well-rounded young man (and we get donuts!)  

As I mentioned yesterday, I'm finished with my holiday projects for this year and I'll be sharing some all-occasion cards until the new year, when the 2018 Stampin' Up! Occasions Catalogue launches!  There's some GREAT projects coming up and some fabulous new products that I can't wait to share with you... but in the meantime, I'm rekindling my love of some old favourites. 

Today's card is brought to you by Wood Words - the very first stamp set I received with last year's product launch! - and Country Livin'.  The rustic, shabby-chic look of the two sets pairs perfectly together! 


Emerald Envy, Bermuda Bay, Berry Burst, Daffodil Delight, and Tangerine Tango are a bright, fun combo to say hello to an old pal.  Love this cheery card!

Thanks for popping in today - see you again soon!  My posts will be a bit more sporadic as I'm enjoying time off with my family - I hope you're doing the same!


But wait!  Before you sneak off,  check out what else is going on this month!

Deck the Halls - Christmas Sweaters

Hello friends!  We are in the countdown to christmas - less than a week until the big day - and I have a super fun pair of cards to share with you today. 


Colouring the ugly christmas sweaters in the Christmas Sweaters stamp set has been so much fun with the new Stampin' Blends alcohol markers.  Which do you like better - the red sweater with green Santa, or green sweater with red Santa?  Why not make both?!

This is my LAST holiday post for 2017 - I'll have a few all-occasions cards to share over the holidays, and then January will launch with a BANG! as the new 2018 Stampin' Up! Occasions Catalogue is released!

In the meantime, don't forget to check out the year-end sale - lots of items are being discontinued and many are on sale!  Christmas Sweaters will be gone, and I know you'll want to keep it for you stash - don't miss out!  Per usual, shopping links and host code info are below.  Treat yo'self!

See you again tomorrow,

Merry Cafe - Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team Blog Hop

Hello friends!  Welcome to the very last blog hop of the 2017 Artisan Design Team.  Whether you're coming from Rochelle in Australia or starting with me, Shannon in Calgary, Canada, welcome aboard!   We are wrapped up December (and 2017!) with Merry Cafe!  


This stamp set was an instant favourite for a lot of people - those adorable coffee cups, the sweet sentiments, the fun Christmas imagery - how could it not be?!


I paired bright Real Red with modern Emerald Envy and classic Gold for a fresh and fun holiday card - and as I aim with most of my cards this at this time of year, something that is non-denomenational, non-specific, and perfect for any giver or recipient.  My favourite!


After all, everyone has their favourite Cuppa. :) 

Let's hop over to Sylwia in Germany next.  Sylwia is returning for another year on the Artisan Design Team!  Make sure to drop her a hello if you're new, and a congratulations if she's a returning favourite - I know she's one of mine!  


Speaking of the new 2018 Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team, it's time for us to pass the reigns onto next year's team.  It's been a slice, my friends, but my time here is done!  Allow me to introduce...
