Money Wreath for the loved one who has it all

Light Me Home Fun Fold
December 26, 2020 by
This is a cool and unique fun fold card idea called the "Bendi Fold". This card was created by Janette Howard.
The card features the retiring Stampin' Up Light Me Home stamp set for the house and walkway. Colored with Stampin' Write Markers.
The card also using the In the Pines stamp set and Pine Woods Dies that are also retiring. Note the Pine Woods Dies have sold out, but you could easily substitute the In the Woods die set. See the full retiring list and sale here.
She used the Evergreen Forest folder for the background and sponge daubers. There are tiny magnets to hold the fold. I noticed I folded my "Bendi" differently than Janette's original lol.
For unto us a child is born
December 24, 2020 by
Jesus is the reason for the season! The past few nights the phenomena of the "Christmas Star" has appeared in the sky. It happened while Jupiter and Saturn converged in the "great conjunction". It won't happen again for another 800 years. I was only able to witness it for a few minutes before it was covered by clouds, but it was still a special sight to see. I'm reminded of the 3 wise men who followed a star (maybe this same conjunction, or similar) and found the baby Jesus in the manger.
This beautiful card recreating the scene features the Stampin' Up Peaceful Nativity Bundle. Like the Christmas Star, this bundle is only here for a short time. It's on the retiring list and I'll be sad to see it go.

Introducing new Basic White, saying a sad goodbye to Whisper White
December 11, 2020 by
INTRODUCING NEW BASIC WHITE PRODUCTS
Whisper White has been a Stampin’ Up! staple for so long. We love it and we know you love it, too. We are sad to announce that the supplier’s mill producing our Whisper White cardstock has permanently closed due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, we weren’t given much notice on this closure. This means that the technology unique to this particular supplier is now unavailable to us and we can no longer offer our Whisper White cardstock and related products, such as Whisper White Note Cards & Envelopes. Please note that this won’t affect any of our other cardstocks, this only affects Whisper White.
