RRRUFF day? - weeM48

I learned how to make this little pup in a Stampin' Up! Punch Art Class today. This was sooo totally fun! I didn't have one of the larger heart punches so my little pup's snout is a little bit small but I still like the way it turned out. My card was created for the weeMemories Challenge #48 - Cute & Cuddly.
Here are 3 more little critters created using Stampin' Up! Punches.

O Come, O Come, Emmanuel! - weeM34

O Come, O Come, Emmanuel

O come, O come, Emmanuel,

And ransom captive Israel,
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear.

Refrain
Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel

O come, Thou Wisdom from on high,
Who orderest all things mightily;
To us the path of knowledge show,
And teach us in her ways to go.

Refrain

O come, Thou Rod of Jesse, free
Thine own from Satan’s tyranny;
From depths of hell Thy people save,
And give them victory over the grave.

Refrain

O come, Thou Day-spring, come and cheer
Our spirits by Thine advent here;
Disperse the gloomy clouds of night,
And death’s dark shadows put to flight.

Refrain

O come, Thou Key of David, come,
And open wide our heavenly home;
Make safe the way that leads on high,
And close the path to misery.

Refrain

O come, O come, great Lord of might,
Who to Thy tribes on Sinai’s height
In ancient times once gave the law
In cloud and majesty and awe.

Refrain

O come, Thou Root of Jesse’s tree,
An ensign of Thy people be;
Before Thee rulers silent fall;
All peoples on Thy mercy call.

Refrain

O come, Desire of nations, bind
In one the hearts of all mankind;
Bid Thou our sad divisions cease,
And be Thyself our King of Peace.

Refrain

This is my "NEW" favorite Christmas song, esp. when sung by Jennifer Nettles of Sugarland. I only wish she'd have done the entire song. She has pared it down to only a couple of verses. Still, I think it is one of her best performances. You can listen and watch the video HERE.

This card was created for the wee Memories challenge #34 - "This weeks challenge is 'HOLIDAY MUSIC INSPIRATION' ... and your challenge is to create projects inspired by your favorite Christmas songs!"

happy holidays - weeM31

happy holidays was created for the Wee Memories Challenge #31 use patterned papers. I used several from the same set. But don't ask me what they are because they came in a CupCardsToGo kit. In fact everything but the ribbon, cardstock and image came from the kit.
I added Stickles to glitz it up a bit and I just love the stick pin that came in the kit too.

Deck the Halls Paper Tree - weeM29

My Paper Tree was created using Stampin' Up! decorative papers - Deck the Halls. It was created for the Wee Memories Challenge #29 - Free For All!

The cardstock base is SU Real Red. The red background dp and the branches of my tree are all from the SU Deck the Halls collection. You may be able to see, I punched the small ovals out with the punch on the left (samples on the bottom right folded in half). After I folded the ovals in half I used my 2 - Way Glue and glued the ends together. Then I started at the top with one and then 3.75" below that I started the bottom branches. The is no rhyme or reason to my placement. If you try this don't worry, no 2 trees look exactly alike in nature either. My tree is comprised of 42 ovals folded in half. You can see when I got to the second row from the very top I cut the ovals to resemble the upsweep of a tree. My trunk is a .75" piece of brown grosgrain ribbon. I added a piece of 1/8" wide Very Vanilla grosgrain ribbon to the bottom portion of my card. I ramdomly placed the tiny perals.
I hope you like my little Tree.
