Stampin’ Up! Christmas Card Idea #10-Winter Post by Trina

Trina St. Michael created this lovely card using an Acetate Sheet! You know the ones you can find at the Staples Business Depot…or really any office supply store. I love how she created almost an ICY feel to this card!

Isn’t it pretty? I really think it looks MAGICALLY ICY with the snowflakes, glitter and the skaters!

To stamp on acetate, you can use Stazon ink. It can be slippery to use, but-have some rubbing alcohol nearby to use to wipe off any mistakes!

Scrapbooking-Holiday Greetings snow fun!

Today’s scrapbook layout idea used some fantastic new products from the Holiday Mini Catalogue. You’ll find the scrumptions new "FELT FLURRIES" add such a nice touch to the scrapbook page! Although there’s no stamping on this scrap page, Stampin’ Up!’s new SEASON OF CHEER RUB-ON’S were used to create a fabulous title!  

Here’s a close up of the Felt Flurries and Rub-On’s:
