I hope you had an enjoyable Thanksgiving! I don’t know about you but the LAST thing I want to do today is fight the crowds. Just finding a parking space is exhausting! No, hanging out in my comfy clothes, sipping hot chocolate and spending time with my family sounds perfect to me. Now that doesn’t mean that I won’t get some holiday shopping done online today!
My Black Friday special begins today and will continue until Cyber Monday, December 2nd at 11:00 PM PST. Anyone who places an online order on my Stampin’ Up! website will receive a FREE TUTORIAL from me as a thank you! The tutorial will showcase 4 quick and cute cards that you can quickly assemble using our Season of Style Washi Tape. I’ll send you a summary which will list the supplies and several directions for making your cards AND a more detailed PDF for those who prefer more detailed directions. Once I receive notification from Stampin’ Up! that your order has been placed, I will email your tutorial to you within 24 hours! Note: Only U.S. residents are eligible.
Check back on Monday for some BLOG CANDY!!!
Have a great day!

Today I have another jar for you! This time I wrapped a strip of our Season of Style paper around the jar with a piece of 3/8″ Stitched Satin Ribbon in Gumball Green. The ornament on the front is from a set in the Holiday Catalog called Christmas Collectibles punched out with the Christmas Ornament Punch. If you purchase these two products together, you save 15%! I love that Stampin’ Up! has so many bundles like this available. I really blinged (I don’t think that is a word) up the top of my jar with Silver Glimmer paper and lots of rhinestones. I love all of the sparkling lights at this time of year so I think this top fits right in!
As I mentioned yesterday, I would love for you to email me a picture of your own jar creation! Thanks so much for stopping by!

I’m sure you know someone that you would like to give a little treat to. This is a fun way to wrap it up! The canning jar is oversized and so I was able to fit an entire bag of Ghirardelli Peppermint Bark squares inside. The first thing I did was to wrap a piece of Washi Tape around the outside of the jar. My snowflakes were made with the stamp set Festive Flurry and cut out with the matching Festive Flurry Framelits Dies. Some of the snowflakes were not stamped but just cut out with the Framelits and Silver Glimmer paper. I used dimensionals on each snowflake as I stacked them on top of each other. When I wrote the name on the top it seemed a bit plain so I used the little snowflake in the set Snow Day first. I inked up the stamp, stamped on my grid paper and then onto my circle. If you decide to make any of these, I would LOVE to receive an email from you and see what you’ve created!

As promised, here is another card using the stamp set Ornament Keepsakes and the matching Framelits (on sale until December 2nd). My inspiration came from Deena Boos. Her card used shades of blue and I decided to use traditional Christmas colors. This is another card that can be made quickly especially when using your Framelits to cut the ornaments.
