Beautiful cards made with the Rustic Christmas Countdown kit!

I created these pretty cards with the Rustic Christmas Countdown kit.  It's meant to be used as an advent calendar but I thought they'd make great Christmas cards.

I will not be surprised if this kit sells out soon.  It's gorgeous!  The envelopes for the advent calendar are approximately 3" X 4"; a good size to add a treat inside.

I added Mossy Meadow & Cherry Cobbler card bases, some textured strips of the same colors and a few greetings. 

The greetings mostly cover up the numbers printed on the wood & gold paper elements in the kit. 

For greetings I used the Brightest Glow (annual catalog) and Beary Cute (Holiday catalog) along with circle punches and Tailored Tags dies. 

We made these projects at my October Flowerbug's Team meeting. So pretty but super easy!

 

 

 

You could make up to 25 cards using this kit just by adding card bases, a few layers and greetings.  The red adhesive-backed sequins, Dimensionals, Cherry Cobbler and craft twine all comes in the kit.

See this kit here online.  Our Christmas kits can sell out quick; so don't wait too long.  You never know if it will be back in time for Christmas. 

The kits is gorgeous as an advent project as well!  It also includes the cutest clothespins to close the envelopes.

• A fun way to add color to the Happy Place stamp with video tutorial

  September 22, 2025

  ---

  I shared how to add color to the large ‘Happy’ from the Happy Place stamp set on last week’s Live video. What do you think?

  Save

  We made this cute card at my September card clubs. The colors include Lost Lagoon, Calypso Coral & White. You might wonder how I achieved the two-toned inking on the Happy image. I used inks – Lost Lagoon for the water and Calypso Coral for the sky. For this sample I used large ink pads. But for my Clubs we used smaller ink spots. It was a lot easier this way!

  Save

  You might also wonder where I got the rectangle Perennial Postage die shape. I had to die-cut a larger rectangle twice to get this size. It was pretty easy and I share how in the video below.

  Save

  We textured the Lost Lagoon layer with the Wave 3D embossing folder and the curvy leaf dies are from the Label Me Grateful dies seen here. I love them! The inside greeting is from the With You in Mind stamp set.

  Save

  It’s an easy fold that shows off the inside of the card and the designer paper we added. This DSP is the Subtles 6″ designer paper which has some great patterns.

  Save

  I really enjoyed playing with this fun stamp set. I’ll share another project from the video tomorrow. See the Happy Place set here.

  I created a free project sheet for you with measurements, photos, directions and a supply list with links. Click on this link to print or download it.

  Below is the video tutorial for this card and one more. Don’t forget to subscribe to my YouTube Channel while you’re there!
