November Artisan Blog Hop

November 15, 2018 By Kim McGillis 5 Comments

The Artisan Design Team is showcasing two beautiful collections for the Holidays, the All Is Bright Suite and the Making Christmas Bright Bundle and coordinating accessories.  Both collections offer different styles for your crafting needs.  The photographic images are elegant and beautiful.

You may have just arrived here from my wonderful and talented friend Kayla MacAulay from Australia. I adore her cards for today’s Hop!

I created two cards and made my own coordinating box for today’s hop.  My choice of adding the bold photographic images from the All is Bright Designer Series Paper came from the idea of Christmas traditions in my home.  This dsp reminds me of Christmas with my children.  It’s been a tradition to go with my daughters since they are little to a tiny Christmas shop in a small town called Vankleek Hill, which is 10 minutes away.  Over the years, we’ve built a collection of beautiful decorations from that shop.  Carole, the owner has seen my kids grow, from babies to young ladies.  This paper reminds me of the vintage, shabby chic look of the decorations we’ve accumulated over the years.  The best part about the holidays for me are the memories and traditions, what are yours?

***The Stamp Sets are also available in French, Joyeux Noel A Tous et Illuminez Les Fetes as well as the thinlits, Poincons Thinlits Joyeux Noel.

Card #1

  • Use cardstock from the All Is Bright Cardstock Pack for your background
  • Add the All Is Bright Designer Series Paper on top
  • Use Very Vanilla Lace Trim under the dsp banner
  • Add a circle from the Joyous Noel Glimmer Paper
  • Stamp in Real Red ink the greeting Christmas from the Merry Christmas To All Stamp Set
  • Add the word “Merry” from the Merry Christmas Thinlits Dies and Gold Fold Sheets
  • Embellish with Metallic Sequins and Twine
  • Use the Christmas Bulb Builder Punch to add some holiday lighting

Tip:  Coordinate products from the Annual Catalogue with the Holiday Catalogue.  My favourite for this card was to combine the lace trim with the dsp.

Card #2

  • Use Whisper White Cardstock as the background for this card
  • Add pieces of All is Bright DSP (2 layers)
  • Stamp Christmas light images from the Making Christmas Bright Stamp Set
  • Color these images with the Stampin’write markers (real red, garden green and crumb cake)
  • Add a circle from the Joyous Noel Glimmer Paper
  • Stamp a greeting from the Making Christmas Bright Stamp Set
  • Finish the sentence with the word “Merry” from the Merry Christmas Thinlits Dies
  • Embellish with the All is Bright Paper Clips and lace ribbon

Gift Wrapping:

  • Use the All Is Bright Designer Series Paper to create beautiful holiday boxes
  • Wrap the real red mixed satin ribbon to add a holiday look
  • Create Christmas tags with the Merry Christmas To All Stamp Set and coordinating thinlits
  • Make your tag stand out with the Joyous Noel Glimmer Paper
  • Embellish with All Is Bright Paper Clips
  • Add the word “Christmas” from the Merry Christmas Thinlits Dies and Gold Fold Sheet

** One of my favourite product from the All Is Bright Suite is the Merry Christmas Thinlits Dies.  I love the look it adds to all crafting products.  I’m crossing my fingers that Stampin’up! will come out with new words for the 2019 year.

Hop along across the globe to view beautiful ideas from both stamp collections.  Make your list of items to get before they retire for good.  Also don’t forget to get your items from the Snowflakes Showcase. It’s for a limited time and ends November 30th. 

Next on the hop is my sweet friend Lauren Alarid from the United States.  I love all her cards.   Click on the Blog Badge below to get to her blog.
