New Punches & Design - Coming to you January 5th

Starting with the new 2010 Occasions Mini Catalog and continuing with all new punch designs going forward, Stampin' Up! has adopted a new body style for our punches! A few features of the new punch style:

• Low-profile, rectangular punch body allows for easier stacking and storing
• Punches lock shut for easier storage and transport
• Dual labels on top and end allow for easy identification and selection when stored
• Available in three sizes: small, medium, and extra-large
• New punches allow for larger punched images and more intricate designs while providing greater ease of use.
  • Extra -large punch images also allow for two-step designs like the Two-Step Bird punch in the Occasions Mini Catalog
• Corner punches allow you to punch a corner design along the inside edges of a page, not just corners
• larger, whole-hand handle design provides better leverage for easier use
• Available in an exclusive Stampin' Up! color

Part of Stampin' Up!'s commitment to providing YOU with the very best crafting tools includes the belief in what we call continuous improvement. Essentially what this means is that even if something works very well, but they see a chance to improve it, they will work to make it even better. While new punch designs will be in the new body style, existing designs will remain in the existing body style for now. Available January 5, 2010!

BAH HUMBUG

This is a card I made for my boss who is always saying Bah Humbug throughout the year. On the inside I typed Merry Christmas to the nicest Scrooge around... from all of us. I got the idea from Carrie Gaskin who is a genius with paper piecing. I have to tell you on the glue part, less is more. The first one I tried looked like a 4 year old did the glueing. :) Merry Christmas and safe travels and remember the Reason for the Season Christ our Lord!

COKE CAN SNOWFLAKE

As I collected Coke cans at work today from co-workers and they just shook their heads wondering (what is she doing now). :) I saw samples recently of snowflakes made from a coke can and just had to try it. It was quiet easy using our craft scissors to cut your can open and then flatten it out and run it through the the Big Shot using the Snowflake #2 die. So easy and so cute. I am using it on metal tin with our polka dot ribbon and attached it with a filigree brad; of course I have a gift inside. Thanks for looking.

Christmas Toffee

I have a recipe that I just have to share, it was orginally called Cracker Candy, however I like to change the name to fit the occasion so I call it Christmas Toffee. I made it for a cookie/candy swap with my downline a couple of weeks ago and it was a hit. Tonight when I was making it for my family gathering I thought this is so easy I have to share it with my stamping friends. I got this recipe from a friend Pat Rackley and it is so easy you are going to want to make some soon. Christmas Toffee
1 tube of saltine crackers- crushed
2 sticks of melted butter
12 oz chocolate chips
1 cup brown sugar
½ cup nuts
Line cookie sheet with foil spread crushed crackers evenly on sheet. Combine brown sugar with butter and cook 3 minutes; remove from heat; gently ladle over crackers. Bake 7 minutes at 350º while hot pour a 12 oz package of chocolate chips over mixture. Spread the chips with spatula as they melt; chopped nuts can be added at this time. After the pan has cooled place in refrigerator for a few hours. You can now break the candy into pieces. The foil will peel away during this process. Enjoy! Merry Christmas from the Wagner Elves

12 Days of Christmas challenge & Sneak preview of new stamp set Tote-ally Tess

NEW TOTE-ALLY TESS You are going to love, love, love Tote-ally Tess a new stamp set I got yesterday for my preorder.She has an apron and stamping tools and so "us" girls, you are going to have to have her. I also used the new clear mounted sets, in both the Occasions and the Sale-a-Bration (SAB) mini catalogs you will get to choose the clear mounted or our usual wooden block mounted. I am crazy about the clear mounted and did not think I would be, it takes up so much less room for storage and you can see exactly where you are going to stamp and it is quick and easy. Be sure to come to my SAB party Dec 29th. Email me to RSVP today so I can prepare for you. Remember during the SAB promotion you get free stamps and other items this year for every $50 you spend. MINI ENVELOPE DIE CUT This is a mini envelope from the bitty box & envelope die from the Big Shot. I love those little envelopes and boxes. I used the new polka dot embossing folder for the front of the box and I made a little belly band with a little strip of chocolate chip and bashful blue card stock and added flowers from the trio flower punch. On the inside I punched an ornament shape and wrote a little thank you note for a good friend of mine. I hope she likes it. PAPER GARLAND This is a garland I punched buttons from our die cuts from Big Shot and heart punches and threaded twine through them and tied red gingham ribbon on the twine too. At first I had it strung across a mirror I have in the foyer and changed it to put on my lamp, makes my stamp room look festive.

MDS- window card

I am still keeping up with the 12 days of Christmas on a Yahoo Group called Late Night Stampers and this is day 7. I received a stamped card like this from one of my team members Dacia Smith and I wanted to try to make it using My Digital Studio. Thanks for looking and I hope you will stop by often to see new ideas.

My Digital Studio - Note paper

I recently took a challenge on Late Night Stampers to send in a project every day for the 12 days of Christmas from Dec 11-22, I have shown you some of them on previous days. This one I made using My Digital Studio. I did not have to look for cardstock or ink or stamp sets just MDS. It was a lot of fun. I will use this to send a note to my customers and downline in the month of Jan. I love the way it turned out. If you want a one on one training for MDS just send me an email and we can set it up. I will have it available at my SAB workshop Dec 29- be sure to look at it while you are here stamping and having fun.

Team Meeting & Cookie Swap

Yesterday I had a team meeting and included was a cookie swap (we had so much fun with this. Here are some pictures of our cookie swap!

After we had refreshments and checked out what we created for the cookie swap; we started stamping with our new toys that demonstraters can pre-order. Everyone brought there new stamp sets as well as there punches and their dsp paper. We each made 4 so we each had a sample of everything we did. It was so much fun, I would love to have you on my team. Enjoy the fun ideas we came up with. We used new sets out of the new Occasions mini catalog that starts January 5th. Frances - Love Bandit
