Deck the Halls!

This week we’re getting ready for Christmas! Actually here at Stampendous my office is already decorated for Christmas since it segues directly from Halloween. Are you getting ready to get out the holly? The friends from House-Mouse Designs® decorate early, too. They know Santa is watching, and this year they’re hoping for cheese! (maybe a nice Porter Cahill…or some Camembert…mmm)

Our team is busy with our Blog Hops, but we’ve been ready for Christmas since the July Catalog. That’s the nature of the crafts industry! So we’re sharing in the afternoons some projects they made for our catalog. If you click on the photo it will take you to the Project section of our website where you can find the supplies and instructions for each project.

A gingerbread house is such a traditional Christmas activity. Do you make one? There are so many easy kits available. Amanda and Mudpie love making these fun creations. Notice that Amanda is standing firmly atop her brother…probably to keep him from eating the decorations! (notice the differences in how these images are colored, the two MASTERS of coloring with Copic markers are showing their stuff here!)
