Tidings of Christmas Card

My favorite cards are the ones I create for Christmas. Stampin' Up has some really beautiful designer series paper, stamps, and dies that make it easy for me to create them. 

I used the Tidings of Christmas DSP because the beautiful papers coordinate so well together. I added a touch of gold and a poinsettia flower to complete this card. 

Making cards has become a passion for me and I hope to inspire you as well. Have a blessed day and have fun stamping.

Heartwarming Hugs Christmas Card

 

I was so happy when I saw the Heartwarming Hugs DSP in the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog because I still had some left over from last year that I wanted to use. I really like this DSP because the different patterns can be used together or with other DSP that matches the colors in it.

I used three different patterns of paper along with some red velvet paper flowers die cut from the Poinsettia dies. I am pleased with the result and plan on creating more with some of the other papers in this collection of DSP. 

I've included a list of supplies and a link to my YouTube video so you can see how I put this card together. Have fun creating and have a blessed day!

Snowflake Friendship Card

I thought this stamp set had a really nice friendship sentiment so I decided to make this card into a winter theme. I did use a retired die set for part of the snowflakes, but it isn't really necessary. You could use the larger snowflakes that come with the So Many Snowflake Dies or use white embossing powder on some of the snowflakes in the Snowflake Wishes stamp set.

We don't usually get much snow here in Deadwood, Oregon, but we have had some beautiful snowfalls in the past. So I'm sending you "Snowflake Wishes" and hope that this season "Sparkles" for you.

  • 158267 Snowflake Wishes Stamp Set
  • 153560 So Many Snowflakes Dies
