Friendly Gnomes

Today's feature stamp set is the FRIENDLY GNOMES.

When the July - December Mini was curry we had the KINDEST GNOMES Stamp Set and it had dies to coordinate.

When that catalog ended, they retired the stamp set but not the dies because they brought out another cute gnome set called FRIENDLY GNOMES. Aren't they darling!!

And look how the dies also coordinate with this new set

You can make the cutest cards with just the dies. Just look at these cute cards made using only the dies to make a gnome

And this is a fun fall gnome that we added to the October Calendar

We are told that the GNOME DIES and the FRIENDLY GNOMES stamp set will retire when the LAST CHANCE LIST comes out the first of April. If you want to be sure to get those Gnome Dies, I would get them NOW!! Just sayin'!!

My team member, Marlane, made this card to share with you using the FRIENDLY GNOMES stamp set.

When Your Sister Asks...

When your sister asks you to make some Christmas cards for each of her grandkids...

Three granddaughters and four grandsons (just like us!!)

This first one was a swap from our OnStage event - one of my top favorites and she has one granddaughter that loves to bake so thought she would like the gingerbread house.

They all live scattered from Arizona to Nova Scotia and in between.

Card #2 was inspired by Susan Campfield

And a big stretch of ages. Card #3 was inspired by Patty Bennett

For the boys I pulled out some retired designer paper that was FREE during a previous Sale a bration to make all of the cards for the boys.

Card #4 is a remake of one I did HERE

Card #5 was a new take on a card I did HERE

Card #6 was inspired by Tarabeth

Card #7 was inspired by a layout design - it's super easy to do...

Card Base is 8-1/2 x 5-1/2 (or your could make it 11" x 4-1/4")

Layer number 2 is 4" x 5-1/4" cut on the diagonal

Layer number 3 is 3-3/4" x 5" cut on the diagonal.

I chose the snowflake dies from CHIC DIES but depending on your designer paper you could use butterflies or flowers - whichever fits the design.

Fitting Florets Collection 

Look at that gorgeous paper and sweet die set.

This product will be available to purchase now and will be included in the new January - June Mini catalog. However, the little gold swirls, the designer paper & the Framed & Festive Stamp Set are only available while supplies last. Don't miss out!!

Remake

This is a card that the stampers made at a previous Tuesday Class. 

Crazy how much fun I'm having with these cute little gnomes.

Then I received a Christmas card request/order to use the tree ring from the Rings of Love Designer Paper (just retired from SAB) and I asked if she would like a gnome on it - "oh, yea!" 

So cute!! 

The little trees are from Peaceful Cabin (*retired)

The ornament from Peaceful Dove (*retired)

Guest Stampers, Inez & Susan, Chris & Rochelle

Today we have more guest stampers, Inez and Susan

These two are a mother-daughter team which is so cool.

Inez shared these two cards 

An elegant anniversary card using the Succulent Die

and a Split Circle Card (I think that is what it's called)

This next card is Inez' swap card - such a cute card using the Christmas Scottie Bundle (item #159744)

Susan made this cute froggie card - even though it is not a Stampin' Up! stamp, I'm so glad that she shared it.

This is the same technique/fun fold card that Susan used on her swap card

INSIDE:

SO CUTE!! Susan took great advantage of the Storybook Gnome Designer Paper (item #159615)

These next two stampers are sharing their swap cards

Chris used the Soft Seedlings stamp set (item #159905)

And Rochelle used the Painted Pheasant Stamp Set (item #159846)

Both are beautiful fall/autumn cards

Gnomes!!

Are you a Gnome lover? or do you think they are silly?

I used to think they were silly, but now I've got one in my front rose bed and I have one for each holiday in my decorating.

THEN... Stampin' Up! came out with the KINDEST GNOMES Stamp Set and I knew I had to get it. I guess I kind of like to make whimsical cards.

And check out all of the coordinating dies!

AND... Check out the STORYBOOK GNOMES 12x12 designer paper. The dies cut out the images on some of the sheets. 

This card was made simply with the stamps

I guess this would be considered a clean and simple card (inspired by Su Mohr)

What I changed up... I added a 4" x 5-1/4" Basic White layer because - well, let me be honest... I'm a layering gal and part of me wishes that I would have cut my Basic White at 5" x 3-3/4" and then added another layer behind that, that measures 5-1/8" x 3-7/8"

Colors: Orchid Opulence & Parakeet Party (2 of the new in colors)

The grasses came from EASTER FRIENDS (retired) stamp set.

The pretty flower is from a FREE Sale a bration Item called WONDERFUL WORLD

This FREE item is free with a $100.00 purchase because it comes with a 12 count pack of gorgeous 2-sided Designer Paper.

My Tuesday stampers will be making this card at Tomorrows class.

Another Gnome card that I made (inspired by Su Mohr) 

The RINGS OF LOVE Designer Paper that is FREE during Sale a bration has 2 full sheets 12x12 of caring sizes of these tree rings. Super cute with the little gnome. This time the gnome is stamped with Memento Ink and colored in with Stampin' Blends. Then the hat was stamped onto some Soft Succulent Designer Paper and hand cut out. I cut out the leaf and the mushrooms also from the Rings of Love Designer Paper. I love making my designer paper do the majority of the work for me!! 

The belated birthday greeting was generated on my computer and then for the inside it says... "if only i had gnome" (also generated on my computer.)
