Don’t you just love all the images in So Santa?  Every year Stampin’ Up! has a stamps in the holiday catalog for those who celebrate Christmas in a warmer climate. It is one of the first things I look for!  While I live in a colder climate now, most of my life was spent in Florida.  And when you are used to it, a sunny Christmas is every bit of fun as a snowy one!  It’s all what you are used to.

This year’s So Santa features this cool “Surfing’ Santa” just chilling on the beach.  The Tropical Escape DSP was perfect for this card.  However, I felt I needed just a bit of bling to make it a “real” holiday card.  So, I took the Tearoom Combo Ribbon pack and colored the Very Vanilla ribbon to Petal Pink and the Coastal Cabana Ribbon to Shaded Spruce using Stampin’ Blends!  As long as you have some light or neutral color ribbon and Stampin’ Blends, you can create any color ribbon you want!

I layered the sentiment on a DSP banner and punched a few pink sprigs to complete the tropical holiday look.

Here’s a colorful Halloween card using the Trick or Tweet Set.  How cute is that little dog?  Because he’s dressed as a witch, I just had to use the cauldrons from the Toil & Trouble DSP.  The ‘bubbles” from Playful Backgrounds set pulled it all together.

Did you notice the “Black Widow” Spider Trinket?  I added a Red Basic Rhinestone to the top of the trinket! I just couldn’t help myself!  If you haven’t picked up the Trick or Tweet set, its not too late!  This one is a cutie you don’t want to miss!

How about an elephant in a ‘bat costume”?  Done!  Just select the trick or tweet set and he is yours! And what a cute guy! Just like thousands of children who think they have us fooled  with their Halloween costumes, I doubt we have a hard time recognizing him!  But just like the children, he is as cute as can be!

This is just a simple little card with traditional Halloween colors and a an offset image.  I had to use the beautiful Glittered Black Organdy ribbon to dress it up a bit.  And I just could not resist adding a silver foil bat as well!  The images in Trick or Tweet are as fun as they can be!  Just have fun with them!
