12 Days of Stampin' Up Christmas Cards - Day 2 ... plus a Stampin' Up Video showcasing the NEW BORDERS SCORING PLATE!

Here's a GREAT card made by Rhea Hughes, fellow demonstrator, that I received in a swap. I LOVE the layout and colors of this card! She used the Be of Good Cheer Designer Series Paper with Gumball Green, Cherry Cobbler, and Very Vanilla cardstock.  She stamped the mittens using the Make a Mitten stamp set and cut them out using the Mitten Builder punch.  The phrase is from the More Merry Messages stamp set; I should have bought that set when it was on sale!

Also, Rhea used the Scallop Squares Duo Bigz Die and the the 1-1/4" square punch for main image background.

And for more FUN!!!    Here's a Stampin' Up video showing how to use the NEW upcoming Borders Scoring Plate.  It will be available starting January 3rd and it works perfectly with the Stampin' Up Simply Scored tool. Don't forget that if you're an email subscriber, you'll need to click over to my blog to view the video!
