12 Dies of Christmas Gathered Leaves Dies

12 Dies of Christmas reveals are planned until I run through the 12 days! This should bring us to the new year and a little bit beyond. Day 3 features the Gathered Leaves dies which are featured in the Gather Together bundle on page 47 of the August-December 2020 catalog. This bundle and special 10% off pricing disappears on January 4, 2021. So order it quick if you want to add it to your collection!

This greeting card is part of my 12 Dies of Christmas Kits in the Mail which feature a different die cutting and coordinating stamp set in each kit. Click here for details on the program and ordering your set of kits.

I have a playlist for all 12 videos on my Youtube channel. Here is the video for this design.

All supplies can be ordered through my online store by clicking the Show Now buttons on my blog.

Happy Holidays!

12 Dies of Christmas Starts Today!

The 12 Dies of Christmas Kits in the Mail ordering starts today! Each paper crafting kit will feature a different die cutting and coordinating stamp set from the annual or fall catalogs. The how to videos will be shared via Youtube links. So you can work at your own pace, savoring each kit for a once a day treat or having a marathon crafting session.

Included are 2 Zoom Open Houses on Friday, December 18th, 9:30-11am and 6:30-8pm. Stop in to share what you have created with your kits. Chat with other paper crafters across the USA. See a stamping demonstration too.

This will be somewhat of a mystery stamping experience for you. I am keeping the designs a secret, EXCEPT FOR THE ONE I AM UNVEILING TODAY IN THIS BLOG POST AND VIDEO LINK. I hope you like it!

Please note: You will need your own stamp sets, die sets, ink pads and adhesives to complete the kits. I will be including large pieces of papers to be used on the stamped and die cut pieces because most dies need stamping and then die cutting for a perfect look. The large sheets of papers are being included in case you don’t have exactly the dies I am using in a design. In addition, ribbons and embellishments will be generous so you will probably have extra to use on additional projects. Per Stampin’ Up! policy, stamped images can not be included in kits.

I am planning on using the following dies and coordinating stamp sets:

Celebration Labels dies and Celebration Tidings stamp set

Dino dies and Dino Days stamp set

Forever Flourishing dies and Forever Fern stamp set

Gathered Leaves dies and Gather Together stamp set

Halloween Magic dies and Hallows Night Magic stamp set

In the Woods dies and Winter Woods stamp set

Love You More Than dies and Nothing’s Better Than stamp set

Nature’s Roots dies and Rooted in Nature stamp set

Pets dies and Pampered Pets stamp set

Stitched Leaves dies and Love of Leaves stamp set

Sunflower dies and Celebrate Sunflowers stamp set

World Map dies and Beautiful World stamp set

Your 12 Dies of Christmas Kits in the Mail Box includes: 12 paper crafting kits with envelopes, 12 Youtube assembly videos, 2 Zoom Rooms and USPS priority rate shipping.
