Today’s Stamp Off Challenge was a hard one for me (even though it was my idea).  We are supposed to use our favorite things from the Holiday Catalog.  The problem I ran into was I like so many things from this catalog that it was hard to choose.

Here is my card:

I ended up choosing the Star of Light Stamp Set with the matching Thinlits called Starlight Thinlits (you can save 10% by purchasing both in a Bundle).  I love this set because it has so many things you can do with it.  The set of Thinlits is amazing and everything coordinates perfectly.  This set even makes a 3D star.

One thing I knew I had to also use was the Copper Foil Sheets.  This picture does not do it justice.  These foil sheets are just gorgeous.  They are a beautiful rich color and they shine amazingly.  As always, Stampin’ Up! offers other matching products to go together.  I used the Copper Embossing Powder for the sentiment and you can also get Copper Metallic Thread.

I cut the star our of Whisper White cardstock and used the negative piece for the card.  I put Dimensionals on the back of it so it would be raised.  Originally I added a bunch of stars and other things but decided I liked the simplicity of this better.

Now, let’s go see what Buffy and Jackie made.  It is so much fun to not show each other our creations ahead of time.
