Christmas In July Card Club - Dasher

Here is two versions of a card we made in July for Card Club. The top one is the original, the second one is the one I made when I demonstrated the card. It features the A la Carte Dasher stamp (116816). The circles are from the Circles #2 (114526) and the Scallop Circle #2 (113469) dies run through the BigShot. The Designer paper is from a retired pack called Holly Jolly (I LOVED this paper! Sad to see it go...). My original version featured brads, and when I demonstrated I showed it without brads so the ladies could choose which they liked. We added some Dazzling Diamonds (102023) to give it some sparkle!

Moonlight Dasher

I wanted a simple "quick" card to include in my Sweet Deal Club's packages this month. I watched a DVD that my Upline Claire Lawrence lent to me. It had SU Demonstrators from all over demoing cards, and techniques. Melissa Ellis, showed the deer from Winter Post, in front of a sun on a hill. I didn't have that set, nor did I have the More Mustard ink that she used, so I tweaked it a bit, and came up with this. It uses Dasher, and the Sentiment from Snow Swirled. The moon is done by punching a 1 3/8" circle out of a Post it note, and the rest is sponged with Night Of Navy (on Whisper White Cardstock), and although it is hard to see here, I sponged a bit of Bashful Blue on the top of the hill. The ribbon is the 1/4" Night of Navy Grosgrain ribbon. I used a circle punch to punch a hole to thread the ribbon through. I added a little of the Dazzling Diamonds on the snowflakes by Dasher's antlers.

Items for a Craft Fair - Magic Reindeer Food

My daughter helped me make these. She wanted to know what made it "Magic" so I had to think fast on my feet and this is what I came up with:

"Abra Cadabra Hocus Pocus
With a Hug and a Kiss and a Christmas Wish,
make this reindeer food light the way
For Santa's Reindeer and their Sleigh.
May their travel be safe and swift
And bring a Christmas Wish
To wake up to on Christmas Morning!"

Hey it worked, she really thinks she made it magic! :) I typed the saying up on the computer, Stamped on my new favorite "Dasher" stamp from Stampin' Up and colored the title with my Stampin' Write Markers!
