So the challenge for this week is to make 25 Christmas tags and a holder. The tags would be made focusing on something from Stampin' Up's A Merry Hello, Freezin Fun, Snow Wonder, Elphie, and Wrapped in Christmas stamp sets. Each tag is to be different from each other. You can make the tags however big/small, elaborate/simple, or shape you want. Can use any paper, embellishments, etc... as long as the item from the stamp set is the focal point. Reveal day will be Friday March 5th. Have fun!

So for today I made another Christmas card. I used a 6 x 4 3/4 white card base, layered it with a red and white dotted paper measuring 4 1/2 x 5 3/4. I then layered it with a blue watercolor card backing from Stampin' Up's Watercolor Christmas project kit. I stamped snowflakes and trees on the paper with black memento ink. I then stamped the sentiment and snowman from the Snow Wonder stamp set onto white cardstock and die cut them out. I colored the snowman with red/green stampin' blends popped it up onto the card base using dimensionals. I finished the card by popping the sentiment up onto red glitter paper (3 x 1 1/4), and then glued in to the card.

Sorry I haven't been posting lately but I am back and hope to continue being able to post. I finished the weekly challenge with Sandra Higgins using the Watercolor Christmas project kit from Stampin' Up. We were to make four Christmas cards using anything in the kit but not using the accompanying stamp set.

So today I decided to make a simple thank you card. I used the hummingbird again from the Touch of Ink stamp set. I stamped the outline with memento ink, second stamped it in garden green and then fussy cut it out. On a 4 x 5 1/2 white card base I then took Stampin' Up's granny apple green, poppy parade, garden green, night of navy, and gorgeous grape inks and dragged them across the page. Then I placed the sentiment thank you so much from the stamp set on the bottom and popped up the hummingbird with dimensionals. Finished it off with 3 apple green rhinestones from my stash.

So today I decided to play with the Touch of Ink stamp set. Every time I think of my Mom, I think of her love for hummingbirds and today she is on my mind more than usual. I used a 5 x 6 1/2 white card base, stamped a cascade of flowers from the touch of ink stamp set from Stampin' Up and coloured them with red and pink markers from my stash. I then stamped a hummingbird with gray slate, then second stamped with garden green, just jade and cherry cobbler inks. I finished off with a sentiment from the stamp set, red and light green sparkle gems.

Today's card was spotlighting the Darling Donkeys from Stampin' Up. I used a standard 4 1/3 x 5 1/2 white card base, 4 x 5 1/4 blue glitter piece cut 1/2 inch all around to make a square frame. Stamped each of the donkeys in the Darling Donkeys stamp set onto grey cardstock with memento tuxedo black ink and fussy cut them out. Then cut circle frames out using the 2nd smallest edged circle and the 3rd smallest scallop circle die from Stampin' Up's layering circle dies on light blue cardstock. Glued each of the donkey heads into the frame and used blue rhinestones from my stash.

Hello. I am in need of some craft therapy. My routine is so skewed and needs to be righted. I missed yesterday's post so today I am posting 2 cards.
The first card I used Stampin' Up's Snowflake bundle. The card base was Stampin' Up's blueberry bushel cardstock, matted with white cardstock that was embossed using the winter snow embossing folder. That was then matted with the snowflake splendour DSP, a sentiment using the Snowflake wishes stamp set and night of navy ink, a snowflake sticker, white ribbon and gems from my stash.

Hello everyone. Today's post I am sharing my cards I made for the Christmas Stampathon 2021 submission. We were to case a card on page 73 of Stampin' Up's mini catalogue. We were to turn the card into 4 Christmas cards, putting our own spin on it and submit it by February 24th. My first attempts at this challenge are below. I am sure I will make more.
I used for the first set of cards the sweetest border dies for the candy cane border and the candy canes, Most wonderful time DSP, and used the snowman season stamp set for the sentiment.
For the 2nd set of cards I used red, green, and gold foil paper, the winter snow embossing folder, the snow wonder stamp set for the snowman and the sentiment, and gems from my stash.
Really loved this challenge so I will probably make more before the next challenge.

For the start of February 2021 I made a small note card birthday card. I used Stampin' Up's flowers for every season cards and more kit, a retired 2019 Christmas paper pumpkin kit for the sentiment, and the new approaching perfection stamp set for the inside sentiment. I made a gift holder for the inside to place a gift card. So cute!
