A Holly Jolly Wishes Christmas Card with Stampin' Up! Hooray It's Thursday!

Ok would you look at that it is Thursday again! This week I have a couple of new and exciting things to share - The Mini Catalogue has started with all the new Christmas goodies in it - that's a big win right? BUT to make it better Saleabration has also started. 

I will link the new catalogues below but first I want to share my first Christmas card for the season using the Holly Jolly Wishes and the Sparkle of the Season stamp sets.

The DSP I have used is from the Saleabration Catalogue and it is FREE with a $90 AU spend. It is called Peaceful Prints and comes in 12 x 12 inch size.

Now if your wondering where the 'embossing folder' for the snowflakes is from - it is one of the new masks we have in that Mini Catalogue. I used our Cut and Emboss machine teamed with our silicone matt to use the mask to emboss the cardstock. 

You are in luck I also made a video so if you would like to see how I did it you can click the video below to check it out.
