Stampin’ Up! Brightest Glow and Joy Of Noel Christmas Card

Good Morning! Today’s card is a simple Christmas card made with the pretty sentiments in the Stampin’ Up! Brightest Glow cling stamp set. I paired it with the beautiful Joy of Christmas designer series paper and and I used one of the pretty images from the Joy of Noel stamp set to decorate the inside. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of Joy of Christmas designer series paper to the front of a Real Red panel with liquid glue. I wrapped the layered panel with Real Red ribbon and made a bow and adhered the panel to the front of a Garden Green card base with dimensionals.

I stamped the beautiful sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Brightest Glow stamp set in Real red ink on Basic White. I cut it out with the pretty Labels Aglow die and popped it on the card front with dimensionals.

I decorated the label with a rhinestone and holly leaves from the Loose Holly Gems and Sequins, adhered with glue dots.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Brightest Glow stamp set in Real Red ink on a Basic White panel. Rather than DSP, I stamped the image from the Joy Of Noel stamp set in stamped off Pebble Path ink in the bottom corner. I colored the image in Granny Apple Green, Garden Green and Real Red inks using a Blender Pen. I adhered the panel to a Real Red mat before adhering it to the inside of the card.

This was so simple, but the beautiful sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Brightest Glow stamp set make it a card anyone would love to receive. And I love how well the Joy Of Noel stamped image on the inside coordinates with the pretty DSP!

Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees Modern Christmas Card

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees bundle is a wonderful Christmas Tree stamp set set that is so versatile and fun! I paired it with the Merry Bold and Bright designer series paper for a modern Christmas Card in different shades of green and gold. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a strip of Merry Bold & Bright designer series paper to a larger panel with liquidd glue and adhered the layered panel to a Granny Apple Green mat. I wrapped a length of gold ribbon around the DSP seam and made a bow (In my short, I used gold trim which worked out great!). I popped the panel on the front of a Shaded Spruce card base with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees photopolymer stamp set in Shaded Spruce ink on Granny Apple Green and cut it out with the second largest tree die. I cut the tree stand and two stars from gold foil and adhered the detailed star to the solid star. I adhered the star to the tree top with a glue dot and adhered the tree stand to the card front with glue dots..

I adhered the tree to the card front with dimensionals and decorated the tree with gold sequins.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees stamp set in Real Red ink on a Basic White panel. I and trimmed the bottom with a strip of DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

Here’s a picture of both cards, so you can see the gold trim. This design comes together real quick and would be a good choice for making multiples. The Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees sentiment on the solid tree is such a cheerful way to send Christmas greetings.

Stampin’ Up! Sending Cheer Christmas Card

Good Morning! Today I’m sharing a fun Christmas Card in non-traditional colors made with the fun Stampin’ Up! Sending Cheer bundle and the Merry Bold & Bright designer series paper. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of Merry Bold & Bright designer series paper to the front of a Melon Mambo card base with liquid glue. I used the tag die from the Merriest Trees dies to cut Blueberry Bushel and Granny Apple Green tags. I embossed the Granny Apple Green tag with the fun Christmas Tidings embossing folder and adhered a Basic White die cut tag topper to the top. I looped iridescent white ribbon through both tag holes and tied it off with Starry Sky baker’s twine.

I stamped the stocking from the Stampin’ Up! Sending Cheer photopolymer stamp set in Poppy Parade on Basic White and cut it out with the coordinating die. I cut the toe and heel from Crushed Curry and adhered it to the stocking and I cut the furry stocking cuff from Basic White and popped it on the top with dimensionals.

I adhered the stocking to the tags with glue dots and popped the tags on the card front with dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment from the Country Wreaths stamp set in Blueberry Bushel and cut it out with the small die from the Stampin’ Up! Sending Cheer dies. I adhered it to the card with glue dots and covered the hole with a Lemon Lime Twist tinsel gem.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Very Best Occasions stamp set in Blueberry Bushel ink on a Basic White panel. I colored the greenery with Poppy Parade, Granny Apple Green and Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends and trimmed the bottom with a strip of DSP. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

Using non-traditional colors for Christmas cards is not for everyone (a pink Christmas card?), but it works with designs that are fun and festive. And the Stampin’ Up! Sending Cheer bundle is full of bold images and sentiments that capture the fun of Christmas.

Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees Christmas Card

Good Morning! Today’s card uses the awesome Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees bundle with a Christmas pattern from the Garden Walk 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to make a festive tag Christmas card. And the sentiment is from the cute Merry and Bright stamp set. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of Garden Walk 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to the front of a real Red card base with liquid glue. I cut a tag from Basic White using the die from the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees dies. I embossed the tag with the Christmas Tidings embossing folder and cut a hole reinforcer from Pretty Peacock. I adhered the reinforcer to the tag and looped Real Red and white iridescent ribbon through it and tied it with a Gold Twine bow.

I cut the 4 smallest tree sections using the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees dies from a Pretty Peacock panel of Hello, Irresistible 6″ x 6″ designer series paper. I used the detailed tree branch stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees photopolymer stamp set and stamped each section in pretty peacock. I used my bone folder to curl the bottoms of each section up and adhered them together using liquid glue. I cut a tree trunk from Wild Wheat and embossed with with the Timber 3D embossing folder and adhered it to the back.

I cut the two stars from Gold Foil and adhered them together before attaching them to the tree top with a glue dot and decorated the tree with Festive Pearls. I stamped the sentiments from the Merry and Bright stamp set in Poppy Parade and fussy cut it with my paper snips. I adhered the tree and sentiments to the tag with glue dots and popped the tag onto the card front with dimensionals.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees stamp set in Pretty Peacock ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered a strip of Garden Walk 6″ x 6″ DSP to the bottom of the panel and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

I love tree Christmas cards and the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees bundle is pretty versatile for making different styles of trees and cards. The rich colors and designs of the Garden Walk 6″ x 6″ DSP make nice rustic cards and the gold trim & foil star with the shiny pearls give it just the right touch of shine!

Stampin’ Up! Joy of Noel Sneak Peek

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Joy of Noel bundle has beautiful holiday greenery and sentiments and I used it with the beautiful Joy of Christmas designer series paper for a Christmas card sneak peek. These products are from the new September – December Mini catalog which will open for orders on Wednesday! Yay!! You can find the currently available products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I embossed a Shaded Spruce panel with the star embossing folder from the Basics 3D embossing folders and adhered it to the front of a Shaded Spruce card base with liquid glue. I adhered a musical panel of Joy of Christmas DSP to a Real Red mat and adhered the panel to the card front with liquid glue.

I stamped the large greenery image from the Stampin’ Up! Joy of Noel photopolymer stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on a Basic White panel. I colored the Berries in Real Red Stampin’ Blends and the leaves in Granny Apple Green and Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends. I used the Lost Lagoon blend to trace over the pine needles to add some color there and cut the image out with the coordinating die. I popped the die cut onto the card front with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Joy of Noel stamp set in Versamark ink on Real Red and sprinkled it with white embossing powder. I shook off the excess and heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny. I cut the label out with the long plain die from the Christmas Classics dies and looped some thin gold ribbon around the back, adhering it with glue dots. I adhered the label to the card front with dimensionals and glue dots and finished the card with gold pearls.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Christmas Classics stamp set in Real Red ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the greenery from the Stampin’ Up! Joy of Noel stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink in the corner and colored them with Real Red and Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

Isn’t the greenery from the Stampin’ Up! Joy of Noel stamp set pretty? It’s so easy to color with blends, but would look great in watercolor too. And I love the sentiments and can’t wait to use the large NOEL stamp! Here’s a picture of the bundle:

And here is the Christmas Classics bundle – they go so well together!

And here is the beautiful Joy of Christmas designer series paper with it’s classic Christmas Colors and patterns.

Stampin’ Up! Sending Cheer for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! Today I’m sharing another sneak peek from the upcoming September-December 2023 Mini Catalog. It’s a Christmas card made with the Stampin’ Up! Sending Cheer bundle. This is a fun bundle that’s great for making Christmas tags as well with bold Holiday images and I paired it with the new Merry Bright & Bold designer series paper. You can find the currently avaliable supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a pretty sketch challenge this week:

I embossed a Granny Apple Green panel with the new Christmas Tidings embossing folder (available Sept 6). I adhered a panel of Merry Bold & Bright DSP to a Basic White mat and adhered the embossed panel over it. I adhered the layered panel to the front of a Real Red card base with dimensionals.

I stamped the stocking from the Stampin’ Up! Sending Cheer photopolymer stamp set in Poppy Parade ink on Basic White. I cut it out with the coordinating die and I cut out the stocking toe and heel from Lemon Lime Twist and adhered it to the stocking with liquid glue. I cut the cuff from Basic White and popped it on the stocking with dimensionals. I stamped the present in Poppy Parade and decided to fussy cut it instead of using the die. I cut the bow from Lemon Lime Twist using the die and adhered it to the present and finished it with a rhinestone.. I adhered the present and stocking to the card with liquid glue.

I stamped the sentiment from the Ringed with Nature stamp set in Real Red ink on Basic White and cut it out with the label from the Meadow dies using the two step method. I popped it on the card front with dimensionals.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Very Best Occasions stamp set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on Basic White. I colored the greenery with Lemon Lime Twist, Poppy Parade and Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends and trimmed the bottom with DSP. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The stocking and present from the Stampin’ Up! Sending Cheer stamp set are fun and festive. I love that the dies make tags and that the sentiments are tag friendly. This makes the set so versatile. Here is the bundle:

And here are the different patterns in the Merry Bold & Bright designer series paper. They go perfect together.

Stampin’ Up! Christmas Classics Sneak Peek

Good Morning! The Stampin’ Up! Christmas Classics bundle is one of the pretty new Christmas sets from the upcoming September-December 2023 Mini Catalog that goes live on September 6, 2023. The photopolymer stamp set is full of wonderful Christmas greetings and the dies are wonderful for creating fancy foliage filled labels. I paired it with the beautiful new Joy of Christmas designer series paper for a simple Christmas card. You can find the currently available products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of Joy of Christmas designer series paper to a Real Red mat and adhered it to the front of a Garden Green card base. I cut a Shaded Spruce panel of Joy of Christmas DSP with the large square foliage die from the Stampin’ Up! Christmas Classics die.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Christmas Classics stamp set in Real Red ink on Basic White. I cut it out with the square label die and adhered it to the front of the large foliage die cut with liquid glue and popped it on the card front with dimensionals.

I decorated the front with three Poppy Parade iridescent discs (available Sept 6) and a Real Red bow. So simple and quick!! I love how the gorgeous DSP contrasts with the fancy die cuts!

For the inside of the card, I stamped the pine branch from the Stampin’ Up! Christmas Classics stamp set in Shaded Spruce ink twice (without reinking) on a Basic White panel. stamped the berries in Real Red ink along with the sentiment . I trimmed the bottom with a strip of the DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

Here is the pretty Stampin’ Up! Christmas Classics bundle – the sentiments are perfect to mix-n-match and I love the musical themes!

And here is the beautiful Joy of Christmas designer series paper. Oops – my music is upside down!

These beautiful products will be available in just a few weeks when the new Sept-Dec 2023 Mini Catalog goes live.

Stampin’ Up! Brightest Glow Christmas Card

Good Morning! I want to share another quick Christmas Card made with the beautiful One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper. But this time I’m using the beautiful Stampin’ Up! Brightest Glow stamp set for my sentiments. This stamp set has one of the most beautiful ‘Merry Christmas’ sentiments and I stamped it directly on the beautiful DSP. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

I adhered a panel of More Dazzle specialty 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to the front of a Pool Party card base with liquid glue.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Brightest Glow cling stamp set in Versamark ink on a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper and sprinkled it with gold embossing powder. I shook off the excess and heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny and adhered it to a Real Red mat.

I wrapped a length of Real Red ribbon around the panel and tied a knot on the side, securing it with a glue dot. I popped the panel on the front of the card with dimensionals and finished the card with three gold snowflakes.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Brightest Glow stamp set in Real Red ink on a Basic White panel. I used the pine trees from the Grassy Grove stamp set, using stamped off Mossy Meadow ink to accent the sentiment. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

Another quick Christmas Card finished thanks to the beautiful One Horse Open Sleigh DSP. The beautiful sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Brightest Glow stamp set gold embossed on the DSP balances the shine from the More Dazzle specialty paper and helps to make this a special Christmas card that anyone would love to receive.

Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh Christmas Card

Good Morning! The beautiful One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper is perfect for making quick Christmas cards. There are so many pretty images that you can easily cut to size and mount on a card base. Add some embellishments and sentiments and you’re done. I used another image from the paper pack with the wonderful sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh stamp set to make today’s quick Christmas card. You can find the supplies I used at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

I adhered adhered a panel of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP to a real Red mat with liquid glue and popped it on the front of a Misty Moonlight card base with dimensionals.

I stamped another panel of the DSP with the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh photopolymer stamp set using Versamark ink. I sprinkled it with white embossing powder and shook off the excess. I heated the powder with my heat tool until it was bright and shiny. I used one of the Deckled Rectangle dies to cut it out, cutting the top and left sides first and then cutting the bottom and right. It’s so easy to use a two step die cutting technique with these dies because you don’t have to match anything!

I adhered the die cut label to an Early Espresso mat with liquid glue. I looped some silver trim on the card, adhering it with glue dots and popped the label over the top with dimensionals. I adhered white adhesive snowflakes around the scene and filled the center with small rhinestones for extra sparkle. I finished the label with another rhinestone.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the tree from the Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh stamp set in stamped off Crumb Cake ink on Basic White and the sentiment in Real Red. I trimmed the bottom with a strip of One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ DSP and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The touches of green and Real Red in the label and mat really bring in the holiday spirit with this panel of DSP! I love the sentiments from the Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh stamp set as they are perfect for sending a quick handmade Christmas greeting! These stamps and the DSP are part of the latest drop of new Online Exclusives from Stampin’ Up!

Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh for the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Morning and welcome to the Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop! I used the Online Exclusives Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh photopolymer stamp set with the beautiful One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to make a simple Christmas card. You can find the supplies I used along with card stock cuts at the bottom of my post.

We have a theme challenge for our Blog Hop this week:

I adhered a Real Red panel of One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper to an Early Espresso mat. I cut another panel of the DSP featuring the sweet little deer and adhered it to an Early Espresso mat before adhering it to the Real Red panel. I adhred the layered panel to the front of a Gray Granite card base with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh stamp set in Real Red ink on Basic White. I trimmed the ends of strips of One horse Open Sleigh DSP and gold More Dazzle specialty paper with my paper snips and adhered them to the back of the label with liquid glue.

I adhered a length of gold Simply Elegant trim to the card front with Stampin’ Seal to and ad the label on top with dimensionals. I finished the card front with gold snowflakes.

For the inside of the card, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh stamp set in Real Red ink on a Basic White panel. I trimmed the side with a strip of One Horse Open Sleigh DSP and More Dazzle specialty paper and adhered the panel to the inside of the card with Stampin’ Seal.

The simple Christmas sentiments in the Stampin’ Up! Horse and Sleigh stamp set are perfect for pairing inside and outside sentiments on Holiday cards. And the pretty One Horse Open Sleigh 6″ x 6″ designer series paper has so many pretty winter landscape images, making it perfect for a quick Christmas card.
