A Cozy Christmas (not a Maui Christmas)

Posted on October 17, 2015 by mauistamper

We don’t have scenes like this on Maui at all, but it doesn’t mean I don’t enjoy them:

At convention, one of the presenters showed us how you could make little pin-point dots on a piece of card stock with our new Fine Tip Glue Pen and add Dazzling Diamonds (don’t tell) for this snowfall effect.

I took it a step further and added snow on the roof, the trees, and the windowsill.

I tried the same card again using Basic Black and some of our retired Silver Encore card stock, but I still felt that the sponging for the sky needed to be deep blue – this is Isand Indigo and Night Of Navy.

The second time around I liked my drifting snow much more.

I’m ambivalent – do you have a preference? One thing I’m sure of: the Hearth and Home Window frame Thinlits are a big hit!

Sparkle and Shine for Christmas

Posted on October 12, 2015 by mauistamper

Forgive me if I bypass Halloween and Thanksgiving for a bit…I’ll be back, but the Holiday catalog has such beautiful Christmas things:

Stamps: None!!
Color Palette: Very Vanilla, Cherry Cobbler, Real Red, Mossy Meadow, GOLD
Accessories: Big Shot, Precision Base Plate, Christmas Greetings Thinlits, Very Vanilla 1 1/4″ Subtle Stripes Vanilla Ribbon, Home for Christmas Enamel Dots, Home for Christmas DSP, Banner Triple Punch, Glimmer Paper, 2 1/2″ Circle Punch

Yes I fussy-cut the poinsettia. It’s very forgiving.

Let me tell you about cutting out these words with the Christmas Greetings Thinlits and the Precision Base plate. The words pop right out of the Thinlit. There are no funny bumps from the holes meant to help you poke them out. The skinny bits don’t get twisted and pulled out of shape. You need this. I certainly do!

Kit-Tastic Christmas

Posted on October 10, 2015 by mauistamper

Have you looked at the kits in the Holiday catalog? I mean really looked?

This is my favorite kit:

These tags (#139602, $21.00 for 30 tags) are CUTE and the stamp set (sold separately #140386 $21.00) is one of those Holiday Keepers that you will pull out year after year. I put them together myself:

Don’t you love my tree? I bought it a few years ago after Christmas on clearance and I use it for everything. You’ve got to act quickly when you see something great like this on Maui – it doesn’t last! There are birds 🙂

I mean, seriously – Holly, Happy Christmas (so Aussie!) and a BELL???

There are To: and From: stamps for the back of the tags – this kit has everything!

That big ol’ glitter snowflake is ah-mazing. And there are three in each kit – thirty tags, three each of 10 designs. It’s well worth the cost of the kit and the stamps to do at home.

However, Crystal and I will have stations to complete sets of tags and the shaker cards below at our annual Christmas Festivities on November 14th. Sign up early!! You can choose tags in sets of 10 (one each of 10 different designs) and/or cards in sets of 3 (one each of 3 different designs). You can even select multiples of each of our sets – for example, two sets of tag kits to make 20 tags. Don’t wait to sign up!

This is To You and Yours, a Shaker card kit that makes 18 cards. (#139647, $24.00) These are charming, eye-catching, and as fun to send as to receive.

This gorgeous wreath can be updated for Halloween, Autumn/Thanksgiving, and Christmas – and that’s just using the included pieces. Imagine Valentines decorations, Easter Eggs, Spring flowers – the list goes on. (Season to Season Wreath, #139645, $27.00)

We won’t be offering that as part of our Kit-Tastic-Christmas, but if you have a group of friends that wants to get together and assemble these, let me know and we will set a date!

Sign up for class projects by November 1st. Make all 10 Oh What Fun Tags (one of each design) for $12, or make 3 To You and Yours Shaker cards for $9 (again, one of each). Or make them both! Or make multiples of your favorite. It’s up to you.

It’s RemARKably Trick or Treat!

Posted on October 8, 2015 by mauistamper

Welcome to the October RemARKable Blog Tour. If you’re the type of person who does things sequentially, you’ve likely arrived from Tracy Langley’s blog. If you’re a Frank Sinatra, I-Did-It-My-Way kind of person, well, I’m happy you’re here!

Trick or treat!

Stamps: Howl-O-Ween, And Many More
Color Palette: Tangelo Twist, Whisper White and Basic Black
Accessories: Big Shot, Pillow Box Framelits, Window Sheet, Woodland TIEF, Black 3/8″ taffeta ribbon, Black Bakers Twine, Happy Haunting DSP, Toe-Bod-Butts*

*See the candy inside the package? It’s called Toe Bod Butts. The little white bit on the end is the Toe. The orange part in the middle is the Bod(y). And the yellow on the top is the Butt. And you eat it in that order.

Anyone who tells you they’re called Candy Corn has succumbed to the wonders of Marketing. Toe-Bod-Butts. That’s what they are.

I absolutely love the Happy Haunting Designer Series paper (DSP). This plaid is one of my favorites – if I lived where Fall was actually a season, I would have wool pants in this plaid. Love love love it…so much that I think I have used up all but a few tiny scraps of the ENTIRE PACKAGE OF DSP. Do you realize the enormity of that? I’m a DSP Hoarder. This is big, my friends, big.

You can put together a bunch of these watching a football game (ask me how I know) and have special treats for the kids in your son or daughter’s class, or your co-workers, or the football players for that matter. And you might even get to sneak in a few Toe Bod Butts for yourself. How fabulous would that be?
