Merry Christmas - Stampin' Up! Artisan Blog Hop

Christmas Sampler Decor / Layout - Merry Christmas / All is Bright by Stampin' Up! - Susan Wong


We're feeling mighty festive this month as we play with the All is Bright suite from the Holiday Catalogue. Welcome to another Stampin' Up! Artisan Design Team hop!

I made this sampler-come-scrapbook-page for display over the Christmas season and then for keeps in the album later. My white square bases are 3x3" and the next layer up is 2 7/8" square - I'm a narrow borders kind of gal! If you make these now and then, or are teaching them in a class, you can make a chipboard frame to help easily line up the squares - see below.

  3. Great sampler and tip! I just am so taken by how lovely and sophisticated the red card is. I love how the merry is tucked under the greeting panel. I am feeling a CASE coming on. Smiles, Elizabeth

  4. These are gorgeous! I love the idea of a decor project you can proudly display and then put aside to keep in an album forever after Christmas. Your cards are both fabulous too - such a great use of that patterned paper!
