Mint Macaron will add a subtle hue of green.

Garden In Bloom Vellum Luminaries

One of my mom's favorite things are luminaries, so when she saw the ones I made with my Stampin' Up supplies she was very excited. She is 85 years old and very active. She plays golf on a woman's league every Wednesday. With the season wrapping up she asked me to make 36 of them. One for each member! To make these luminary project: cut the vellum 5 1/2"X10", follow the directions on the Gift Bag Punch Board. Stamp your favorite images from the Garden in Bloom, use the snail to put it all together, add a flameless candle and close with a cute clothes pin. Contact me if you would be interested in this project a class! Go to www.Kris.Stampinup.net to order the items for this project.

Embellished Ornaments

Call me crazy but I have been thinking about Christmas in August! The temperatures have been near triple digits but I have been creating projects with my new items from the Holiday Catalog, Handmade for the Holidays. Here is a card that I made. The details in the Delicate Ornament Thinlits Dies used with the precision plate for the big shot made such clean cuts. If you think there is detail in the thinilit look at the Embellished Ornaments Stamp Set in your catalog! I am thrilled with how the red foil paper added the glimmer and dimension to the card. To frame the card I used the Boughs & Berries Textured Impressions Embossing Folder. It really tied the whole card together! Check out my Stampin' Up web page to sign up for classes, www.kris.stampinup.net.
