I hope you have been as fortunate as me and had these last four days off.  Oh, how I love this long holiday weekend each year.  The holiday decorations are up , the football games were amazing yesterday and today I will settle down to make my Stampin' Up! order from the Holiday Sale. If you have not taken the time to look don't wait any longer or the sale will be over.  There are great deals on framelits, punches and other tools to make your projects go from great to WOW.

Tomorrow Stampin' Up! will feature several additional items on sale for Cyber Monday.  Several items at 30% off their regular price!

Pals Paper Arts Sketch Challenge #181

I want thank Nina Dee for selecting my submission as her pick for the PPA Challenge #180.  I am always honored to have my card chosed by one of these talented designers.

Yesterday the Pals Paper Arts Team released a new sketch challenge by the talented Nicole Watt

Where did my Mojo come from?

I wanted to use a fresh color combination.  So I pulled out my Stampin' Up! Color Coach and flipped through looking for something that caught my eye.  One of my favorite Stampin' Up! colors is Island Indigo so it is no surprise that I landed on a combination of Island Indigo, Baja Breeze (retired), and Rich Razzleberry.  Despite the fact that Baja Breeze is retired I just had to go with the combination once I saw it. 

My goal was to make a birthday card for a colleague with this sketch so I chose the Pretty Print Textured Embossing Folder from the holiday catalog to add a feminine flair.  

Confession – I often get ahead of myself when creating a card.  I excited about the creation and begin adhering my elements before I have really finished thinking through the card design.  That happened here.  I had added the Baja Breeze Seam Binding ribbon to the Rich Razzleberry card stock and mounted it with Stampin Dimensionals.  Then I realized I needed a sentiment.  Hmmm.  So I carefully lifted the corner of the Rich Razzleberry, put a firm surface underneath it and stamped my sentiment from the Make A Wish stamp set.  Although you can't really see it, I added Dazzling Diamonds to the flame of the Wish candle.

In the end, the color combination steals the show.  Thanks to my Color Coach!

Where did my Mojo come from?

This card is totally CASE'd from Melissa Davies.  I have seen this card before yet I loved her use of Stampin' Up's Champagne Glimmer Paper. 

Here is the inside of the card

I hope you enjoy time with family and friends today.  For the first time in twenty some years we are not hosting Thanksgiving.  We are going to a friends home and the menu is out of this world. We are all a bunch of foodies so the menu is like something out of Food and Wine. It will certainly be a merry time!

This weekend I will be sharing more Stampin' Up special promotions- don't miss a single post.  Stampin' Up! has another doorbuster sales event to add to the Holiday Sale for Cyber Monday – as demonstrators we don't even know what it is yet!  

Until tomorrow, Happy Thanksgiving!

If you are like me this holiday season seems like it is on a fast track.  Stampin' Up! has the perfect solutions to keep you on track this holiday season – it is the Seasons of Style This and That Journal. And did I mention you can buy this in a bundle for 20% off now during Stampin' Up's Holiday Sales!!!!

11-26-2013

This is my This and That Journal that I decorated with Seasons of Style Washi tape, Christmas Messages Stamp Set (30% off now during the sale), and the Deco framelits Collection. I did not want to decorate it too much as I carry with me and make notes all the time.

A week or more ago my blog showcased my gifts of the This & That journals for three of my colleagues as early Christmas gifts.  They were thrilled with the gift. See the post again here.

So get out your Holiday gift giving list and sit down with the Holiday Sale Flyer Download Holiday_Sale_Flyer_US and place your order now.  Then you can sit back and wait for the gifts to arrive at your door!
