Stamp A Stack 2010

As I mentioned yesterday, my theme for this year's Stamp a Stack Class is "Sparkle and Shine". One thing that I love about Christmas is the way that the lights twinkle, the garland on the Christmas tree reflects light, and people's dispositions seem to even shine. I decided that my cards needed a bit of twinkle too.

I will be honest.... these cards aren't anything special. I looked around a bit on the web, in the Stampin Up catalog, and elsewhere to come up with the specific designs for these. I wanted to keep it simple.....for those of my customers who prefer it that way.

Card One


This card features the Christ is Born stamp set. I love the simplicity of the images, but to add a small bit of shine I used gold glitter glue on the dots in the center of the poinsetta.

Card Two


Serene Snowflakes has a very calm, cool effect on this card. It's really easy to create too! I use a half sheet of whisper white paper and stamp the snowflakes in 3 shades of blue ink. Once I'm done, I cut 2 inch strips to decorate the front of the card. Sparkle and shine comes from rhinestones and silver glitter glue.

Card Three


I saw this card on Splitcoast Stampers and I knew that I had to try it! The "tree" is actually created using the pine tree from "Lovely as a Tree". The ornament was stamped, punched and suspended using silver ribbon. I added a rhinestone in the center of the ornament for shine and twinkle.

Well, that's my Stamp a Stack for this year. You can create 6 cards for $10 or 12 cards for $20. Just let me know which you prefer. Contact me to book a date.
