Did you order the Stampin' Up! Deck the Halls Designer Series Paper? From just the one pack I have made three of my 12 Weeks of Christmas projects (not pictured here because of my promise my 12 Weeks of Christmas projects are exclusive to those only on my mailing list) and a lot of Christmas cards. And, there is still a lot left to use yet.
Here is my Christmas cards this year. I just love the old fashioned feel from the Deck the Halls Designer Series Paper. Scroll below the picture to read all the supplies I used to make this Christmas card.
The two stamp sets are from the 2010 Stampin' Up! Holiday Mini Catalog – Tags til Christmas and Seasonal Sentiments. The ornament image was stamped with Cherry Cobbler Classic Ink on Very Vanilla Card Stock and perfectly punched out with the Ornament Punch.
I used a Stampin' Write Cherry Cobbler Marker to color only part of the greeting stamp from the Seasonal Sentiments stamp set. Don't you just love the mix of fonts (all caps and script)?
The patterned paper from the Deck the Halls Designer Series Paper was cut to a 4" x 4"square and layered onto a half sheet of 8-1/2" x 11" Crumb Cake Card Stock.
The 3" scallop square was die-cut with my Sizzix Big Shot and Stampin' Up! exclusive Sizzix Scallop Squares Duo Bigz Die from Always Artichoke Card Stock. It is great to have perfectly scalloped corners every time!
The ornament stamped and punched image is layered onto a 2-1/2" x 2-1/2" piece of Cherry Cobbler Card Stock. The finishing touch to my card is the half pearl from the Jewels Basic Pearls in the center of the ornament. With the adhesive already on the back of the half pearl, it is quick and easy to add a nice finishing touch.

Holiday Mini Catalog and only available until January 3, 2011. Order them now before they are gone for good on www.stampinsmiles.stampinup.net.
