This month is the last month to order the Best of 25 Years stamp sets.   These special sets were released every month during Stampin' Up's 25 year anniversary. 

As a special incentive to collect the Best of stamps, Stampin' Up! is  including a collector's card and 25-year proof of purchase sticker with every Best of set. Collect six stickers, and send it in to redeem a FREE set of your choice valued up to $14.95! Free sets must be redeemed no later than April 30, 2014.

Here are a couple of samples from the archives using the Best of Flowers set.

I will post another sample from the Best of Flowers on my Facebook page.   Remember order your Best of Sets before the end of March!

I hope you had a thoroughly enjoyable Thanksgiving.  We had a few friends over for dinner and best of all our son was here too! Nothing like having a table full  of friends and family.  

I had a few Frosty shakers leftover from this project and like Thanksgiving leftovers they need to be used up.

If you are thinking that the snowman looks familiar you are right! It is a mini Frosty!  If you have been a long time customer of Stampin' Up!  you probably will remember the stamp set Frosty.   He was definitely a favorite.  Well, he has returned in a smaller version in the Best of 25 Years stamp series.   You know who also made a comeback in the Best of Snow set?  The hedgehogs!  Seriously, this is one adorable set.

Here's a closeup of the shaker element.

Remember the Holiday Sale is On!  The Silver Glimmer paper and the Circles Collection framelits are both on sale.   

There are 2 sentiments in the Million and One stamp set and they are both gorgeous.  I chose to use the "fabulous sentiment" as I have some fabulous people I need to send cards too.  

Stamps: Million and One, Best of Flowers
Ink: Basic Black, VersaMark
Paper: Basic Black, Very Vanilla, Real Red, Modern Medley DSP 
Punches: Bird Builder punch, 1-1/4" Scallop Circle, Itty Bitty Shapes Punch pack
Extras:  Black Stampin' Glitter mixed with Clear Embossing powder 

I hope you can see the glittery black centers of the flowers.    The Black glitter is from the Black and Orange Stampin' Glitter (132206)  on page 20 of the Holiday catalog.  

You can just barely see it but I decorated the inside of the card with a strip of the Modern Medley DSP and a  red flower.   Sorry the color is so off in this picture, it really is Very Vanilla.
