Sneak Peek Party Pandas and New Size Note Cards, Teeny Tiny Wishes, Labels to Love, Good Tidings, Seasonal Tags, Santa's Suit, Santa Builder, Card Front Builder, Classic Label - Christmas Card

It's really, really cold out.  Our high temperature is 20 for today; but, the wind makes it even more cold.  The temps will fall into the teens tonight too!  Yuck!!! 

My share for today is the Christmas Cards that I designed for my Great Niece and Nephew. Ya' see, I'm not just a Good Aunt; I'm a Great Aunt!!!  😊😊😊  Let's take a look at my Cards:

Now, aren't these two Party Pandas just Stinkin' Cute!!!  Party Pandas is a new Stampin' Up Stamp Set that you can get as a free Sale-A-Bration item with a qualifying order.  I'm sure that my Great Niece and Nephew will Love these Darling little Pandas too!

My Card Base is a new size Whisper White Narrow Note Card that is in the new Stampin' Up 2018 Occasions Catalog available to order January 3.  There are 20 Notes Cards and Envelopes.  The Note Cards measure 2-1/2" x 4-1/2".  The Envelopes measure 2-3/4" x 4-3/4".  They also fit nicely in boxes that you can make using the Lots to Love Box Framelits Dies also available January 3.  *Contact your local postal service to determine envelope mailing requirements.

I trimmed out a piece of the Snow Pattern from SU's Christmas Around the World Designer Series Paper to measure 2-1/2" x 3-1/4" and adhered it to the top of my Card Base with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.

I trimmed out a piece of SU's Silver Glimmer Paper to measure just shy of a 1/4" x 2-1/2" and adhered it over the bottom edge of the Snow Patterned Paper over-lapping the Whisper White Card Base with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.

Using SU's Card Front Builder Thinlits Dies, I die cut the Double Trees from Old Olive Cardstock and the Single Tree from Garden Green Cardstock.  I adhered the Trees to my Card Base just above the Glimmer Paper with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.

Using SU's Seasonal Tags, I die cut the Snowflake from SU's Silver Glimmer Paper and adhered it to my Card Base with Mono Multi Purpose Glue as shown in the picture above.  I let the dab of Glue dry a little before adhering it to my Card.

I colored a Basic Jewel Rhinestone with my Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blend Marker and adhered it to the center of the Snowflake with a dab of Mono Multi Purpose Glue.  I let the Glue dry a little before adhering it to the Snowflake.

  
Using SU's Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set, I stamped my Sentiment onto a scrap of Whisper White Cardstock in Real Red Ink.  I punched my Sentiment out with SU's Classic Label Punch.

Using SU's new Sale-A-Bration Stamp Set, Party Pandas, I stamped the Panda shown in the picture above with Basic Black Archival Ink onto Whisper White Cardstock.  I fussy cut the Panda out.  I trimmed off its cute little Party Hat and I'm saving it for another project as the Party Pandas Stamp Set is intended for Birthdays.  I'm thinking out-of-the-box!

Using SU's Santa's Suit Stamp Set, I stamped Santa's Hat and his Mittens (for the inside of the Card) onto scraps of Whisper White Cardstock in Basic Black Archival Ink.

Using Santa Builder Framelits Dies, I die cut out the Hat and Mittens.

I colored Santa's Hat with my Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blend Marker.  I brushed Wink of Stella onto the Hat's Brim and Tassel to give it a Glittery Shine.  I adhered the Hat to the Panda's Head with Mono Multi Purpose Glue and adhered the Panda to my Card with Stampin' Dimensionals.

I adhered the Sentiment Banner to the Panda as shown in the picture above with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.

For the inside of my Card:
Using SU's Party Pandas Stamp Set, I stamped Love You on the inside of my Card with Real Red Ink.

I colored Santa's Mittens with my Old Olive Stampin' Blend Markers and adhered them next to my stamped Love You with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.

Using the Confetti Stamp, I stamped my Confetti around my Love You with Pool Party, Old Olive and Garden Green Inks. 

Pictured above is the Front of the new size Note Card Envelopes.

Using SU's Labels to Love Stamp Set, I stamped my Sentiment in the lower left corner of the Envelope in Real Red Ink.

Using SU's Good Tidings Stamp Set, I stamped the Solid Holly Image in Always Artichoke Ink, the Detailed Image in Old Olive Ink and the Holly Berries onto a scrap of Whisper White Cardstock in Real Red Ink.  I fussy cut out the Holly and adhered it next to the Ho Ho Ho with Mono Multi Purpose Glue in the Center of the Holly only leaving the Leaves free of adhesive.

 

The picture above shows the back of the Envelope (on the right).  They have a half circle flap.  LOVE!!!  I can see that I am going to be using these a lot!!!  😊😊😊

Aren't they sweet!  They look like they are doing the Jingle Bell dance.  😊😊😊


Stamparatus

The Stamparatus is a new product from Stampin' Up!  I was one of the unfortunate ones to miss the first reservation window.  I love this new product and my FAVE feature of the Stamparatus is the double doors!

Change in Stamparatus Reservation Windows

The results are in! The first Stamparatus reservation window reached its maximum number of reservations in just 15 minutes, which provided us with some very important information: You LOVE this new stamping tool! We couldn’t be more thrilled; in fact, your response was so amazing that we’ve decided to make some important adjustments to the reservation process.
As was previously announced, the second reservation window will remain open from December 5–30; however, during this reservation period we will take as many orders as we receive (yay!) and not close the window until December 30. So whether the total number of reservations is 100 or 100,000, the window will stay open!
Please note the following changes:

• Beginning March 19, we will ship Stamparatuses in the order the reservations were received (first in, first out) and continue through the next few months and beyond as product arrives in our warehouse. Because shipment dates are based on manufacturing lead times, not all of the reservations made during the December 5–30 window will ship on March 19 (as was previously announced).
• In order to accommodate demand, limits have changed as follows: one reservation per customer and one per demonstrator.
• Because we are not limiting the maximum number of reservations for the second window, we will not offer a third window. This is the last chance for you and your customers to reserve a Stamparatus before it becomes available in the 2018-2019 annual catalog.

Please note what has not changed:

• If you reserved more than one stamping tool during the first reservation period, that number will not change; you will still receive the same number you reserved.
• If you reserved one or more stamping tool(s) during the first reservation period, you may still order during the second window.
• The reservation window will open at 2:00 PM (MT) on December 5. 

We can’t wait for you to get your hands on your very own Stamparatus and look forward to seeing the projects you’ll make with this incredible stamping tool. Look for additional details on the Stamparatus product page as the second reservation window approaches.
