Oh my gosh, where did the time go? / Stamping With Melva

Oh my gosh, where did the time go?

Monday, 10 October 2016

Have you every woken up and realized that it was October and you seem have missed an entire month? I haven't posted anything since the end of August :( Well, that was me last week! I've been travelling a lot lately - Baltimore, Calgary and then Toronto with very little break between. That probably accounts for most of the lost month. Well, I'm back :)

Buy 3 Get 1 Free Designer Series Paper

From October 1 through 31, you can buy three packages of Designer Series Paper and get one free! That’s great news since everyone can use more Designer Series Paper!

Christmas Shares

Have you fallen in love with the amazing products from the Holiday catalogue like I have? Oh my gosh, I can't get enough of the cute cards made using the Cookie Cutter Stampset and coordinating punch. I received this card from my friend Ellie Blake - isn't it adorable and I just love this folding technique. Ellie has used the Candy Cane Designer series paper (Item 141981) along with the Cookie Cutter stampset (Item 142043) and coordinating punch (Item 140396).

Here's my card that I cased from Ellie's. I used the Presents & Pinecones DSP (Item 141986) and the Christmas Pines stampset (Item 142049) with the coordinating Pretty Pines Thinlet dies (Item 141851). A bow made from the 3/8" Silky Taffeta Ribbon combo pack in Emerald Envy (Item 141989) and a Mini Pinecones embellishment (Item 141990) add just a little bit of bling to the card. I wasn't sure of the combination of Real Red and Emerald Envy, but I love the combination now!

Both of these cards use DSP that is available in the Buy 3 get 1 free sale to the end of October!
