Create a winter holiday scene with the Still Scenes Bundle from the Holiday Catalog. It will give you a chance to bring a special scene to life this winter. I love collecting snow globes and this Bundle allows me to have a little more fun with it. You can also purchase the Snow Globe Shaker Domes and take it up a notch. Add confetti, fake snow, glitter or anything you can think of to enhance your card.
This bundle can also be used at other times of the year. Just choose your image for your scene and you have your inspiration.

Die-cut an approx. 2 ½” scalloped circle with the Silver Glimmer Paper and a regular nesting circle in the Mercury Glass Acetate using the Layering Circle Dies. Use glue dots to adhere the two circles together and liquid glue to attach to the card front. 4. Punch 4 Pine Trees using Garden Green cardstock. Fold 3 of them lengthwise and attach them to the 4th one using liquid glue making a 3D tree. This will lay flat to mail. 5.

Create this wonderful wicked Halloween bundle card. It’s perfect for this time of year and will have everyone wanting one. I really am enjoying this new bundle in the Holiday Catalog.
Measurements: · Basic Gray Cardstock: 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼”, 2” x 5 ¼” · Basic Black Cardstock: 5 3/8” x 4 1/8”, 5” x 2” for die-cut · Highland Heather Cardstock: 5 ¼” x 4”
Instructions :
1. Let’s start with the embossing paste so that it has time to dry before adding to the card. Take a little Shimmery Embossing Paste out of the tub with your Palette Knife and put it on a silicone craft sheet or paper plate. Add about 3-4 drops of Memento Black ink refill to your paste and mix. If you want it a little darker add a drop or two more then mix. When you’re ready lay your Highland Heather cardstock layer on a scrap piece of paper and put your decorative mask with the dotted pattern on top. Smear the black paste over the mask covering the whole piece of cardstock. Scrape the excess paste off with your knife and then lift up your mask. Clean your materials right away and set your Highland Heather cardstock piece aside. 2. Fold card base in half and attach the Basic Black cardstock layer with snail adhesive. 3. Stamp the spiderweb with white ink in two corners of the Basic Gray cardstock layer. 4. Die-cut WICKED and one spider with small piece of Basic Black cardstock. Use liquid glue to attach the word and the spider to the Basic Gray layer. 5. Once your embossing paste is dry attach the Highland Heather layer to the card with liquid glue or snail adhesive. 6. Add Black Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the basic gray WICKED layer and attach to front of card. 7. Lastly, add one Red Rhinestone to the spider.
