Home for the Holidays Blog Hop

Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop! This month, the theme is “Home for the Holidays”. We really hope that you enjoy and are inspired by them! As you hop from blog to blog, don’t forget to leave comments because we love hearing from you. You will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.

Stampin Up Whimsical Trees fun fold designed by demo Beth McCullough. Shop 24/7 and see more 3-D gift idea and fun fold cards at https://stampingmom.com/home-for-the-holidays-blog-hop #stampingmom #cute&simple4u

I made this easy fun fold into a fancy Christmas card by adding gold heat embossing and blends. The bow is from the Gift Giving dies, but you will also find little bows in the Baby Clothes dies #155471 and the Stockings dies #156288.

Inside the card is Basic White CS 4-5-1/4″ with Whimsical Trees heat embossed in gold. The Mossy Meadow CS started at 5-1/2″ x 11″ scored at 3-1/4″ and 7-1/2″ before the 1-1/4″ angles were cut.

I also heat embossed another gold tree on the envelope because we don’t want naked envelopes. I hope you have a wonderful holiday planned with your family and friends!

More inspiration awaits, so use the lineup below to visit the rest of the Design Team. The Pals are excited to show you what they’ve created! Then, please mark your calendars for our next blog hop on December 8th. Our theme will be “My Favorite Things” with our design team showcasing some of their favorite products from any catalog they choose.

Until then, have fun in your craft space.

Blessings,

Beth

Where do you get your inspiration for the cards you make? I get inspiration everywhere.

Our High School friend, Jane, invited us to tour her beautiful garden in Ames, Iowa in June. It was amazing! I came home and planted more flowers, including Coneflowers. I was thrilled when Jane sent me several packets of seeds from her garden that I will plant next Spring.

When I saw the Nature’s Harvest stamp set, I knew these beautiful coneflowers needed to be in my stamp collection.

This is an easy fun fold card.
