PALS AUGUST BLOG HOP!


FEATURING ITEMS FROM THE
NEW HOLIDAY CATALOG




Glad you could join us for some holiday crafting with the Stampin' Pretty Pals! You've probably hopped over from BRIAN KING'S BLOG, I'm stop number 19 on the Pals Hop and I'm glad you hopped in! I'll help you "hop along" from blog to blog where you'll find great ideas for Stampin' Up! projects featuring the new Holiday Catalog! Should you hop off course, simply click on any of the links in the Pals Hop Line-up below and you'll be back on track




The card I made for the blog hop features the stamp set,  'Perfectly Preserved'.  This set is so versatile and fun to use.  I thought the "Orchard Harvest" designer series paper (DSP) went well with this set.  I layered the card to get some depth and detail.  I just tore the edges of the paper to get the jagged edge look.
I used some of the new in-color ink to coordinate with the DSP  when I stamped the jars and apples.  Bakers twine was used to top off the jar on the right.




Here is a close up look at the jars!





Now hop along for more inspiring ideas from Mikki Sarkisyan stop number 20 on the Pals Holiday Catalog Blog Hop! Thanks for "hopping" by!

      The jars look so inviting filled with apples. And the dsp is a perfect complement.
