Does the change in season make you think about the upcoming holidays? The holidays remind me about the traditions that make each holiday special. Many of us share similar traditions like eating all the Halloween candy before the big day only to have to go buy more — at least once! Maybe it’s spending time making favorite family recipes for a big Thanksgiving dinner. Or making paper chains, counting down to Christmas with an Advent calendar, or decorating Christmas cookies with the kids before Santa visits. What are your family traditions? I’ll bet most of them center around time spent with your friends and family.
Making holiday treats, cards, and gifts together is a great way to slow down and really get into the spirit of the season. Kids can help create fun and easy little candy holders to share with their classmates using Big Shot dies, Halloween-themed stamps and the adorable Bitty Bat Punch. Thanksgiving baked goods become gifts from the heart when tied with ribbon and festive stamped tags addressed to the teachers, friends, and neighbors for whom you are grateful. Put on your favorite Christmas tunes, make some hot chocolate, and spend an evening with your family making, signing, and addressing Christmas cards. You’ll find the task becomes an event to cherish. I hope that you’ll take some time during the holidays to savor the simple joys. Share time with those you love, create memories, and make heartfelt and personal gifts. If you need ideas for holiday projects, treats, or gifts, just let me know. I have lots of ideas to share with you that are perfect for any occasion and budget!
Happy Stampin'

Monthly Product Highlight
Our product line is extensive. We have something
for everyone. With that in mind, I enjoy highlighting
products every month that you might not have seen
in our fabulous catalogs. This month's product
I'm highlighting is the Spooky Expressions from
the Definitely Decorative Catalog.
You don't need to carve a pumpkin—or clean up a pumpkin mess—to create a
playful jack-o'-lantern. Just apply Spooky Expressions Décor Elements to any
smooth surface—a candy jar, a serving dish, a door—and you have an instant
jack-o'-lantern.

|
|
You can find more details on the Spooky Expressions Black Décor Elements
on page 10 of the Definitely Decorative catalog.
This product is available online by visiting
my store and selecting the following
links: Store > Home Decor > Vinyl Art > Seasonal. You can also enter in
"Spooky Expressions" in quotes in the search
box in the top left of my store. |
