Hello! So I was browsing through one of my favorite sites again, Splitcoaststampers, and found these adorable Santa cards made by a few different Ladies. I fell in love with this jolly old soul, and had to make a few myself!! Each one I made was slightly different, just the decorations on his hat was all that I changed. I do not know exactly who made this first, but I thank you so much! I just have to keep one for myself, and display it by my other decorations!! :) He is made with an…

I am having so much fun with the Be Jolly stamp set. This set is part of my Stamp of the Month Club. Today's card is called Santa Clause is Coming to Town.

Ho! Ho! Ho! Check out this Holly Jolly Christmas card! I used the 'Be Jolly' & 'Holly Jolly Wishes' stamp sets on page 29 in the Holiday Catalog. This is one of the cards that everyone made at my Holiday Extravaganza class a couple of weekends ago. This Santa just makes me smile. I made a pocket on the inside of the card, so that you could slide a gift card (or cash) into it! How did I do it? It is sooo easy...... 4x 5 1/4" piece of Basic White cardstock Slide the Tailored Tag Punch up from…

Hi Crafty Friends, Today I am sharing a Christmas themed Trellis Style Bridge Fold Card I created recently. Sam Calcott shared a tutorial for this style of card back in September, as it looked like a fun style of card, I decided to give it a go. You can see her tutorial here. To decorate my card, I used the new Spellbinders/Stampendous Santa Hugs die set. This die set included the Santa image as well as the cute little reindeer. I added the sentiment which is from the Holiday Hugs Sentiments…

Hello everyone, let me show you my latest make with one of the cutest Santas by Sizzix, Tim Holtz.

Here I will start a long tutorial, because Because my assembly order is different from the one on the Sizzix YouTube channel. Usually I like and follow the Colorize tutorials step by step, but when I followed it here, somehow the parts didn't fit well. The main piece of Santa…

I made a woodgrain background with inked kraft paper, an old snowflake background embossed in white, paint streaks and splatters, and The Greetery’s “Herringbone Parquet” die. Will your card reflect fall’s lingering beauty or give a sneak peek of the…
