Thanks for stopping by today! If you've come from Tim Holtzs' blog for the Simon Says Stamp Special Holiday Release BLOG HOP... then Welcome!!!
We are celebrating three releases in one week!!
First, we have the December Card kit (Santa's helpers just informed me that it has already sold out)!! But, many of the kit components (including lights) are available for individual sale in the
Simon Says Stamp store.
Secondly, there is the Advent Plus release... super cute stamps and dies to create your
very own holiday Advent Calendar plus new envelopes and tags!!!
And finally, The Limited Edition Simon Says Stamp Holiday Card kit for 2016. It's a doozy... absolutely packed full of so many goodies!!!
For my card, I used some of the items from the Limited Edition Holiday card kit. I wanted to make a white on white look by using the basic neutrals. I started off with white cardstock and the Stitched Oval and Stitched Rectangle dies from Simon Says Stamp.
I tore white cardstock to create snow banks and added the tree from the Sugar Plum foam stickers along with the Retro Deer die cut from one of the Simon Says Stamp kraft tags. To finish off with a pop of color I added the green and red Stickles as ornaments and red nose
for the deer.
Simon Says Stamp is giving away a $50 gift voucher to one person from each blog in this hop. Remember to leave a comment telling us about your holiday crafting along the way f

Your card is gorgeous! I LOVE the neutral colors! Kraft and white is one of my all-time fave combos. The woodland scene you created is so serene. Love the small touches of sparkle you added with dots and stickles. :) I've been working on lots of holiday cards and tags, and this weekend, I've been crafting up some ornaments, too.
I just love your card it is so elegant.
Loving this kit! Can't wait to get it!
Great cards! I bought the limited edition kit in the nick of time last night! This morning it was sold out! Thanks for the inspiration.
I typically run out of time and don't get cards made, but I do make tags and I also love to use my stamps on kraft wrapping paper and kraft gift bags.
I like your sweet and elegant card! So fun that you gave the reindeer a little, red nose!
Fabulous design and color combo!! I am in love!!
I make Christmas cards every year and this year I hope to make tags for all the gifts. I had wanted to do some Plush dies, but we are in the middle of packing our house to move early next year and my wonderful husband packed all my floss so that may not get done this year, LOL! It will be our last Christmas in the house where we raised our kids so it will be a little sad. I'm three and a half weeks post op from a spinal fusion as well, so I'll have to be careful what I do. Love this kit and I was too late buying it, wish I had known about it sooner, ugh. Absolutely love the card you made, just beautiful.
Sheri,
Such a beautiful card I love the retro look thank you for sharing.
very beautiful, love the simple combination of kraft and white.
thanks for sharing

The simplicity of this card makes it so classy! Absolutely love the small details that pop, such as Rudolph's nose! Thank you for sharing!
Gorgeous card, Shari!! Love the touch of sparkle against the white and neutrals. I have big plans for holiday crafting - cards and tags/accessories for gifts. I need to get started on everything ASAP! :)
Aw beautiful !! Love the deer and the kraft cardstock.
This is an adorable card, Shari! Love the neutral color palette with the little pops of color via Stickles. Great composition, too. Tfs! :) ~ Andrea
I love making Christmas cards, tags, ornaments. Love your cards, beautiful inspiration!
I love your card! I'm so excited to get this kit. I love the SSS kit of the months but this one I couldn't pass up. Now to cut out some time to finish up my Christmas cards.
Gorgeous card, so simple and beautiful.
I love creating cards, tags and when I have time, do some cross-stitching for Christmas.

Your beautiful scene is simply magical! LOVE the simplicity of it! The addition of the sparkle is perfect! TFS!
So sweet and adorable.
Very pretty card Shari. Love the white on white with the sweet little kraft deer and the sparkly tree. Thanks for sharing.
Super inspiring, thank you for sharing your creativity. Splendid idea tearing the white card stock to make snowy hills. My children and I spend time together creating holiday cards, gift tags, and gift boxes for the homemade goodies we make in the kitchen to give to family and friends. We enjoy our creative bonding time as we crafts homemade gifts for people near and far. Happy Holidays!
I've been leaning to using more kraft paper in my holiday cards! I love this ❤️️
I had never thought how off-setting a stencil can give it dimension. Thanks! I've been busy with a Christmas card-making swap with a group of crafty friends. We'll each go home with 20 cars and lots of memories!
Very pretty card, nice reindeer!
Cute card! I make cards, tags and ornaments this time of year.
I always love your cards. this holiday season I have made over 165 cards for friends, family, and the volunteer organizations I work with.
What a beautiful card! I haven't even started making Christmas cards yet... Still need to finish invitations for my twins' birthday in mid-December...
I really love the clean/simple design of your card! I'll be making tags and notebooks this year. (:
So adorable, love that deer and cute tree.

Beautiful card. Thanks for sharing!
I've finished my Christmas cards now just need to address n mail! I wonder what pretty stamps there r this year.
Love the red on the reindeer nose.
Two basic colors, lots of texture and dimension makes this a special card.
love the krafty for a Christmas card, never done that so thank you for the inspiration, also the glitter tree is jus perfect
I love the idea of using kraft and white. I am in the process of making over 160 Christmas cards (75 done). Although I did take a break to make some Thanksgiving cards, we have a lot to be thankful for this year.
I like that you tore the paper to make your snow mountains! You know I never do that anymore. I think some trends never truly go out of style we just need to be reminded of the now and again! Great card! I'm just starting my cards so you gave me some inspiration! Thanks! :)
A cool card!
Love the neutral colors!
Love the classic colors of Kraft and white with a little hint of glitter. Thanks for the inspiration!

So sweet and pretty! Such a lovely scene! I've still got a few more Christmas cards to make and appreciate the wonderful inspiration!
I love the dimension on your card. I need to figure out where I'll find the time to work on my Christmas cards, gifts, and tags.
I love your reindeer card - and the faux stitching really adds a nice touch.
I love the simplicity of the colors of this card. It's great and I'm trying to make some cards this year.
Simple but beautiful. I make a few cards and a few tags and really enjoy that.

I participated in the Caring Hearts Card Drive for the second year this year, and I made about 20 Christmas cards for family and friends until today, want to make a few more and then I'm done. I'm really starting to get in the Christmas mood this way!
I love the card all winter trees and frost . I got soo many ideas from this one image,
but
,
now I'm just depressed that I spent over half an hour looking for a skeleton fir tree die when its actually a sticker and all the ideas I had won't work unless i can find a replacement die.
What a sweet Christmas scene. Anyone would love to find this in their mail...
How cute! I love the "neutral with sparkles" look.

Wonderful card! I have been making my personal Christmas cards and some for meal on wheels!
I just got finished cleaning my craft room. I haven't started on Christmas crafts just yet, but will after Thanksgiving! I can't wait!
Shari, this is adorable with all your extra details. Love the Kraft and white elegance. I'm making 80 Christmas cards, mostly the same design. Assembly-line stamping is my friend this time of year. Off to hop and enjoy the beauty!
Making individual Xmas cards this year.
LOVE the dots of red and green stickles you used for embellishment, and that sweet little reindeer!
Clean and simple? No way! Fabulous card that captures the fun. Thank you for being a part of the hop. I think I just grew a bunny tail!
Love the framing and my favorite is the red on the reindeer's nose!
That is simply adorable!
What a delightful card - I just love your style!! Thanks so much!
Gorgeous card! I am crafting mostly for charities this holiday season. My family knows this is important to me and they don't expect extravagant cards like in seasons past. I am crafting cards, tags and gifts for veterans, seniors in nursing homes, children at homeless shelters and young people at grief counseling centers after losing loved ones. Makes my heart feel full to be using my crafting to help brighten the days of folks less fortunate or who may be struggling a bit through the holiday season. Big hugs and happy holidays! xo, Kristina
Such a beautiful card - simple but gorgeous! Thank you for sharing.
