We all have our country listed – so if you are looking for a demonstrator in your country, these demonstrators would love to look after you with your Stampin’ Up!® shopping or if you would like to join our Stampin’ Up!® teams.

I made this Christmas card with Blushing Bride and Basic White CS, Mint Macaron ink, Rhinestones and products from the Whimsy & Wonder Suite in the Fall 2021 Stampin’ Up catalog.

Thanksgiving Invitation

Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop! This month, the theme is “My Happiest Season”. We really hope that you enjoy and will be 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.

It’s so hard to pick a favorite season because I’m a fan of all the seasons in Iowa, except the cold and icy one which shall remain nameless. I love hosting my extended family for Thanksgiving and always send them a special invitation, so Fall/Thanksgiving is certainly one of my favorite seasons.

Stampin Up Thanksgiving Pretty Pumpkins Invitation designed by demo Beth McCullough. Shop 24/7 and see more card and 3-D gift ideas at https://stampingmom.com/ thanksgiving-invitation#stampingmom #cute&simple4u

Here is this year’s invitation. I went for a classic, formal invitation using the Pretty Pumpkins Bundle and the Seasonal Swirls dies. The pumpkin is heat embossed in copper with a copper foil circle behind it. The sentiment is also heat embossed in copper. A Tasteful Labels die was used to trim the sentiment. I really like the texture of the Timeworn Type 3D Embossing folder.

After I was done making this year’s invitation, I went back to see what I sent last year. I think by November of 2020 I was done with anything dark or sad because of COVID, so I made the invitation in bright & happy Stamping Mom colors. I also thought it was ironic that both cards said, “Gather Together.” I guess that’s one of the reasons Thanksgiving is one of my favorite seasons is because I love my family and love gathering them together!

I went back one more year to find the 2019 invitation and it says, “give Thanks.” I love making homemade pies especially apple, pecan and coconut cream, so I wasn’t too surprised I had a “turkey with a pie” invitation.

Thanksgiving Treats and Invitations. Search my blog at https://StampingMom.com for ideas dating back to 2014. #stampingmom #cute&simple4u

I also make treats for everyone who comes to Thanksgiving at our home. Here’s a collection of past Thanksgiving treats and invitations. I want my guests to feel special and I hope by sending them a handmade invitation and sending them home with handmade treats they feel extra loved and appreciated!

I would love to hear stories about some of your family traditions. Please leave a comment and share them with me.

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 September 8th. Our theme will be “Focus on the Sentiment” when our Design Team creates a project showcasing a sentiment as the focal point of their project. Until then, have fun in your craft space.

Fine Art Floral Fun Fold

Here’s another easy fun fold card using the gorgeous Fine Art Floral Suite! Two of the 12″ x 12″ sheets of Fine Art Floral Designer Series Paper (DSP) line up perfectly with the Golden Garden Designer Specialty Acetate. This is easy to do and is so pretty in real life. I have a dear friend who has a birthday this week and is the care taker for her husband who is suffering with Dementia. I know she will keep this card on her counter and hopefully it will bring a smile to her face, knowing that I’m praying for God to give her strength and peace.

It’s time for another Festive Friday Challenge! It’s fun being a designer for Festive Friday and this week’s challenge #FF0076 is Chinese New Year (Feb 12).

The Inspo List is 10 items you can choose from to create your project. Incorporate THREE or more of the items in your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D item and join us. If you want help entering, please email me at Beth@StampingMom.com and I’d be happy to help you!

Here’s the side view to show how nice it sits up on a desk or table. I love this new Painted Texture 3D embossing folder.

***Here’s a tip for you so you don’t waste any of the Foil paper. Only the edge of the frame shows, so grab another die and cut out the center and use it on another card. 🙂

Here’s a free PDF showing the supplies and directions to make this card.
