Merry Moments Simply Scrappin' Kit

I'm not a traditional scrap-booker (but I LOVE to do it with My Digital Studio), so I generally overlook the scrapbook kits that Stampin' Up! offers.  However, this year, the kits in the Holiday Catalog are so beautiful and enticing, I took the plunge and ordered the Merry Moments Simply Scrappin' Kit to see what projects it would inspire.

I used a layout from a card I admired at the Stampin' Up! Convention - made by the creative geniuses at the Stampin' Up! home office.  That card wasn't a Christmas card - but a good layout is a good layout.

• The printed borders look beautiful when combined together
• To cut them to my desired length without having to pull off the whole sticker, I used my "quilting rotary cutter method"
• Use a grid mat and ruler to measure a straight line at the distance you want to cut
• score the sticker with the edge of a sharp pair of scissors - using the edge of the ruler as your straight edge
• peel the sticker to the score - which, with a fold or two, should separate easily
• The various printed circle stickers are a great accent to the edge of a card layer
• The stamped images are from the Open Sleigh stamp set and are embossed with Pewter Stampin' Emboss Powder (which is so beautiful and has an "ooh" and "ahh" factor that leaves other embossing colors in the dust).

Pewter Stampin' Emboss Powder:   It's a color somewhere between silver, bronze, & gold and it is gorgeous.  It still wows me every time I'm waving my heat gun over it and I see it start to shine.
