Hi Crafty Friends!
I am really enjoying all the Halloween and Fall projects that I've been working on, but you know I love Christmas projects. If you're making a handmade Christmas, you do need to start working kind of early so that you can have fun getting things done. So, so that you have time to order supplies and get to work, I'm sharing my Christmas Sampler early.
Oh Stampin' Up! you have done such a good job with your Holiday catalog this year. Isn't this piece just lovely? I mean, I love it but I hope you do too. Here are the measurements and then we'll get to the details. And for fun, I even made an assembly time lapse video, scroll down for the video.

ReplyDeleteHi Kathryn. Thank you! You are so very welcome. Thanks so much for checking out my project.
DeleteSpectacular!! I love when people give the sizes ands directions. (Muahhhhh) Thank you soooo much!!! We're making these as a group of demonstrators holiday play date in November after on stage!
DeleteJanine, you are so welcome! I'm happy when I get to inspire and help out. I'm often inspired by others, so it feels good to give back. Have a great time at your event. I'm looking forward to On Stage.
DeleteThis is just gorgeous, my kind of Christmas colours. Thanks so much for sharing all this information - very kind and generous of you.
ReplyDeleteThank you and you're welcome! I'm so glad that you like the project.
DeleteThis is adorable! I saw it on Pinterest and this has to be the cutest Stampin' Up! sampler I've seen! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Kris! It's one of my favorites so far.
DeleteThis is so lovely! I actually cased it with a few changes as I didn't have the sets and made it with my card class for Christmas. All the ladies loved it. Thank you so much for creating it.
ReplyDeleteYou are so welcome Rebecca. And changing it up as needed is the perfect thing to do. I'm glad that your ladies enjoyed making a sampler.
DeleteThank you, thank you, thank you...from the bottom of heart for providing dimensions to your super cute sampler. So many make them but give nothing for people to case from. My feeling is, if you make it and want people to be able to case it, then provide the information needed to do so. You get the gold star!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you!! I'm glad to do it. Although sometimes you want to share things and not have to go into the details, so I understand why they are not always included. Hope you have a fun time making a sampler.
