Metallic copper for the holidays!

WOW!  Can you believe it that Christmas will soon be here?!  I find that metallic colors are perfect to shine for the holidays and copper is my favorite metallic color.  Stampin' Up has lots of copper products that you can use - above is my favorite copper card - it uses copper foil paper, and copper trim, as well as black glimmer paper and rhinestones.   The simple leaves that are diecut and embossing folder for the background really make the sparkly items stand out, don't they?

Here are some of the copper products from Stampin' Up that you can buy in my online store:

Stampin' Up bundles, suites, and kits - what is the difference?

http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/marynoble/

What is the difference between Stampin’ Up bundles, suites, and kits?  To help with the confusion and make it perfectly clear what each is, I have put together a short summary about them. 
http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/marynoble/

• ·       A Bundle costs $30.50 - $143 and includes select stamps and coordinating accessories together with a 10% discount versus buying the products individually.
• ·       A Suite is built-in coordinated and matching themed product.
• ·       A kit is pre-cut cardmaking kit with instructions, embellishments and everything needed to make beautiful hand-made cards. 
• ·       For kits, there are 3 types of papercrafting kits: all-inclusive kits ($21-$37 everything you need is included),  project kits ($18-$22 plus cost of coordinating stamp set), and the Paper Pumpkin kit ($19.95 which is a monthly crafting subscription kit).

Also there are Project Ideas and Shop by Project to view on my Stampin’ online store site (left-hand side):  http://www.stampinup.net/esuite/home/marynoble/  Of course, you can see the bundles, suites, and kits there and purchase them as well!

Birthday cards all handmade!

Gee, I had another birthday sneak up on me last week!  I belong to an online cardmaking club where we have a birthday list that my name is one.  Wow, I received 10 handmade cards in the mail!!  I wanted to share them and I really appreciate receiving them from all the ladies - I have never gotten so many birthday cards in my life -- thanks everyone!

Now I am excited to have the birthday list to send my birthday cards too as well  :-)  I also got a huge ice cream cake from my hubby - it was yummy and I forgot to take a picture of it....it is all gone now lol.
