Hello and welcome to our Stamping with Friends Blog Hop. We are a group of demonstrators worldwide, sharing our passion for Stampin’ Up! We post twice a month on the first and third Saturday of the month. Each month a theme, technique, card, color, sketch and more is assigned. If you are new here, “Welcome.” If you are a subscriber, “Welcome back.” We know you will enjoy seeing our beautiful creations.
I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving. Our families did with good food and fun. I am taking this month off to enjoy family, baking for Christmas and shopping. I will post any new news from Stampin’ Up! and there will be a few scheduled posts between now and the new year. Plus waiting patiently for the Spring Mini Catalog and Sale-a-bration brochure coming in January. Can not wait to create new items for you. Now let us get to hopping!
Today I have created for the blogger’s choice hop, a wood wreath. I got the wood wreath form from Dollar Tree. One of the best places to find reasonable items for creativity.
I merged new product with a few retired products. I want to show you, my customers and blog followers, that you can combine them. I used the Sentimental Christmas DSP to cover the wreath form. Added a complimentary piece of DSP to the center of the wreath. I used the retired poinsettia punch to create my flower for the top. Punched stars with the star punch from gold foil. Added them to each side of the poinsettia. Next, added die cut trees from retired Rosegold foil using the Decorative Trees Dies. Die cut the word using the Mini Alphabet Dies. Added some Blooming Pearls in Pretty Peacock. Gold textured Dots for center of poinsettia.

Now let’s head on over to our next blogger to see what they have created.
