Hi there!!! This week will be packed full of inspiration because we are all over the moon excited about the Stamp of Approval Holiday Magic collection that will be available this week! It all started yesterday! Today, tomorrow and Wednesday there will be lots more inspiration from the design team and special guests…
Today I’m featuring one of the stamp sets and dies from the collection! I absolutely ADORE this set! How cute is that tree and all the various patterned ornaments!!! And the background? I created a stencil with one of the dies in the kit and misted on some Distress Spray to create the soft, festive background!
To create the snowy hills, I pulled out some embossing paste again!!! Oh yea… 🙂 Love the texture it leaves behind. To minimize the amount of ink pads, I used three Hero Arts Ombre Ink pads to create all these colors! 🙂
Stamp of Approval is NOT a kit and there is no subscription involved.  A new collection will be released quarterly and you can choose whether or not you’re interested in that quarter’s box.   Not only do these products work fabulously together but they’ll also work incredibly well with supplies you already own. And this Holiday Magic collection? Truly! There is nothing else you will need! It’s amazing! Supplies are limited so make sure you visit Stamp of Approval to get on the waitlist. They will be available for sale on Thursday, October 15th!
Join me again here on Wednesday because we are going to celebrate the Holiday Collection release BLOG HOP style! And with a hop, means a giveaway!!!! You know it!!!!!!!! The card I made for Wednesday is the favorite of the projects I have made so far with this collection! Here is a peak at a few other projects  you can see today using SOA Holiday Magic goodies! GORGEOUS!!!!

Very creative use for the little bits dies, Laurel! I never would have thought of that. I really like the texture you created for your snow. Embossing paste is awesome for that!

Really pretty, love the embossing on the ornament, adds so much shine. Thanks for the inspiration.
Love the card and the glossy accents on the ornaments
Hi Laurel ~ I love playing with texture paste too…results may vary!!! Not sure why you thought your card wasn’t as nice as the others (I think it was on Instagram that you said that) but you’re quite wrong. All cards are fantastic, yours included!!
