Pink Poinsettia Ice Skates

 


Hello! Here with one of the last Christmas cards of 2024! I love this ice skate image from Stamp Simply's Vintage Christmas Images stamp and die sets.  The sets can be purchased as a bundle or individually.

This is also a very quick card to make; the coloring is minimal and the die cuts and embossing folder make for a quick background.


The base is white cardstock; the embossed panel is achieved with a Tim Holtz Sizzix Snowfall Speckles embossing folder. The stamped shaped diecut is from the Elizabeth Craft Postage die set. 

The Vintage Christmas Images skates are stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink, then colored with Copic Sketch markers. They are then die cut with a Vintage Christmas Images die

The Christmas sentiment is also from the Vintage Christmas Images stamp set and cut with a Stamp Simply Fishtail Sentiment Banner die.

Bring on the Snow!

 
We've had very snowy weather thus far and will definitely have a "white Christmas!" We typically get a lot of lake effect snow living close to Lake Superior and it has been especially abundant this year. 

I have a mitten card and quick gift bag for today using Stamp Simply's Christmas Stockings and Mittens stamp and die sets...so fun to play with!



I've pulled some retired plaid designer paper for my card and bag, but you can find a similar pad HERE. The mitts with snowflakes are die cut using the Stamp Simply Christmas Stockings and Mittens die set; the frame is a Elizabeth Craft Metal Die Postage Stamp die. 

The "bring on the snow" sentiment comes from the Christmas Stockings and Mittens stamp set. The Spellbinders die cut tag is retired. 

The kraft bag is simply covered with a mix of the plaid designer paper prints. A great presentation for a smaller sized gift!

Spellbinder Ornament Gift Tags

Hello! Dropping in to show some gift tags that I made for my monthly stamping group's Christmas tag exchange...these dies are from Spellbinders, Nordic Ornaments. Unfortunately they are discontinued and not available, but similar dies from Spellbinders can be found here.  

I love that you can make numerous die cuts, then mix and match all of the colors to create the ornaments. 

These make great gift tags, but also can be used as ornaments on the tree or home decor.

I hope that you are having a joyous Advent! 

Thank you for stopping by!

O Christmas Tree Shaker Card

 

Hi there! Here today with a monochromatic shaker card...so fun!

I have always loved Stamp Simply's O Christmas Tree stamp and die sets...so beautiful! They are wonderful combined with Stamp Simply's Vintage Christmas Background stamp to make a sparkly shaker card.

I began by stamping the Christmas tree with Memento Rich Cocoa ink (similar), then colored it with Copic Sketch markers. It was then die cut  with the O Christmas Tree die. 

I stamped the Vintage Christmas background and then die cut the oval in the center with Stamp Simply's Vintage Oval die. Tim Holtz Ranger Distress mica and tiny beads make for the sparkle in the shaker. 

All product is from Stamp Simply.

Have a wonderful week!

Simple Gift Tag



Hi! I've got a quick gift tag for you today featuring Stamp Simply's Christmas Blessings clear stamp and steel die sets.

I began by making up the base tag using Tim Holtz Sizzix Tag Collection dies, cutting a cardstock base then die cutting and then covering it with a Craft Consortium Grunge Festive Tones decorator paper background.

The Christmas Blessings sentiment is stamped with Versafine Clair Acorn ink, then die cut with Elizabeth Craft Metal Die Postage Stamp dies. The holly leaf/berries from the Christmas Blessings stamp set was stamped with Memento Rich Cocoa ink (similar), Copic colored, then die cut with the matching Christmas Blessings die from the die set. Some Ranger Glossy Accents add a bit of shine to the berries; a May Art's Striped Ribbon also adds interest.



Quick to make, easy to mass produce.

Warmth of the Season


Welcome! As the weather continues to chill, here's a card to warm you up! It features Stamp Simply's Christmas Stockings and Mittens stamp and die sets.

I decided that I wanted to use dies today to create a monochromatic background for my main focal point...a great way to add a bit of interest and texture. I used the snowflake die from the Christmas Stockings and Mittens die set to do so. The mitten pieces were die cut from the neutral cardstock with the same die set.


The very base of the card is covered with Craft Consortium's Tartan decorator paper, along with the oval and snowflakes on mittens.  The sentiment from the Christmas Stockings and Mittens stamp set is stamped with Versafine Clair Bluebell ink, then die cut with a Stamp Simply Fishtail Sentiment Banner die.

Fun and easy!
