Thanks for making the Royal Blog Tour a great success! While the tour is officially over, I’m leaving up the samples to inspire your holiday stamping 🙂 Scroll to the bottom for Blog Candy Winner!
I’ve prepared some breathtaking samples using the *Exclusive* Level 2 Hostess Stamp Set, Peaceful Season from the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Mini Catalog…it’s not too late to contact your demonstrator to host a workshop to earn this set FREE (hint, hint)!

Have you seen the adorable mini gift bags in the Holiday Mini Catalog? Here is just one simple way to dress up some homemade caramel popcorn or a small gift:
I love this card created with the Big Shot, Scallop Square die and more of the Deck the Halls Designer Series Paper that looks like a present on the outside…
…and when you open it up, you pull the greeting from a pocket on the inside of the card!
It could be both a card AND a gift if you glued a gift card on the insert 🙂
I wanted to share a home decor project, too, so here is a simple luminary using the Fancy Favor die, the new Decorative Label punch, some vellum and a battery-operated tea light from the dollar store!
Finally, a simple and elegant greeting you can create in seconds with the Northern Flurry embossing folder from the Holiday Mini Catalog (and one of the cards you can make at my Christmas Stamp-a-Stack on November 20th!). Isn’t that Marina Mist blue beautiful?
BLOG CANDY!! Would you like to win a “Dasher” Instant Christmas Card Kit (just add ink!)?
