Welcome to the Roost! As usual I don’t where the week went. Today I’m sharing several cards using the Joy of Christmas Suite. I still have so many awesome swap cards to share and the the Last Chance Sale starts on Monday, November 21, YIKES! I want to show you these awesome ideas while you still purchase the stamp sets.

There are two stamp sets in the Joy of Christmas Suite and this card is the only one I have using the Joy of Noel Bundle. I love the white space and how clean this card looks. Classic Dawn O! Dawn is the person who convinced me to join her Stampin’ Up! team. I’ve always been jealous of how straight she gets everything, lol. My cards are always a bit more slap-dash. The checkered paper is from the Joy of Christmas Designer Series Paper which is part of the Suite and the red gems are also part of the Suite and are the Loose Holly Gems & Sequins.

Sue’s card uses the Christmas Classics Bundle from the Joy of Christmas Suite. The greeting dies in this set are so cool! I love the cut out leaves around the label. This card is definitely a classic. I could see this one being great for an assembly line of Christmas cards. Cut a stack of papers, die cut the labels and mass produce.

Here on Lisa’s card you see another of the pretty die cuts from the Christmas Classics Bundle. Done in Gold Glimmer paper is really makes this fun Step Card shine.

Wow! The layers and textures on Shari’s card are awesome. As well as the dies from the Christmas Classics Bundle, Shari has used one of the Basics 3D Embossing Folders and some Gold Foil paper. The greeting is heat embossed with Gold Embossing Powder for a very rich look.

Susan’s has added in another element from the Joy of Christmas Suite, with the large piece of the Joyful Specialty paper on the background. There are four patterns with gold foil accents in this pack. Plus she has used the Black & Very Vanilla ribbon, another part of the Suite!

I wanted to point out the berries on Susan’s card as well. They are created with the Enamel Effects Basics found on page 137 of the Annual Catalog. They come in tubes of three colors, in either metallic (copper, gold, silver) or Pearlized (black, red, white).

And, as a final note, remember to use those left over strips on the inside of the card like Susan has done here.
I hope you have enjoyed all of these wonder cards created by these talented ladies. I’ve included links below for the Last Chance Sale and Carry Over List so that you can plan which items you want to purchase before they disappear. Remember to get your orders in sooner rather than later, because some of these items will sell out fast.
Have a great weekend.
