Each month one of us sets a challenge that we use for the blog hop. This month’s challenge is a to create a Non-Traditional Christmas Card or Gift Package. The challenge was created by Tracy Held and is shown below:
I found this challenge quite difficult. Looking at the inspiration pic, I thought “What can I do with this?” So I kinda copied the pic, substituting a turtle for a horse. I cut the santa hat and trim by hand. One cute little turtle santa.
……and a close up of the turtle santa (but you cant see all the wink of stella on the trim of his hat!

Each month one of us sets a challenge that we use for the blog hop. This month’s challenge is to CASE one of the Annual Catalogue projects shown below, using products from the new Mini Catalogue. This challenge was created by Maheswari Rajaguru.
I chose to use the Peace On Earth Bundle, with other products from this beautiful suite to case the card shown at left of the image above.
I used a sponge dauber to swipe some White ink over the embossed texture and the edge of the greeting panel, gold heat embossed the greeting and layered everything on a Smoky Slate panel.
Dies and Stamp Set can be purchased as a bundle with 10% discount during the life of the Mini Catalogue

Welcome to this month’s Paper Crafting Blog Hop featuring the 2025 Mini Catalogue. I am excited to share another project with you today. Fellow Stampin’ Up! Demonstrators from all over the globe are participating, so we have lots of fun projects to share with you. I hope you get loads of creative inspiration from them. You may have started here, or arrived from one of the other talented participant’s blogs. Either way, you’re in the right place!
I chose to use the stunning Traditions of Christmas Suite. I am a fan of the traditional red and green for Christmas and this DSP has lots of gold running through it, so it is extra gorgeous. The two bundles in the suite complement each other very well; one bundle having greetings and label dies, and the other having images and dies to cut these as well as some images from the SDSP. When you throw in the ribbon and the sequins, you’ve got all your Christmas crafting needs, all coordinating beautifully.
I hope you are inspired by my card. I’d love to know what you think. I had fun creating it. Make sure you hop all the way around and see the inspiration that everyone has shared, and don’t forget to leave a comment. We all love to get comments on our projects.
