Fantastic card with the Merry Christmas stamp with a free project sheet & video

December 9, 2025

Today is the last day to get in on the Cyber Monday sale on Paper Pumpkin subscriptions.

Save big on a 3 month, 6 month or 12 month subscription. I love getting a crafty box in the mail each month!

Go here to subscribe.

The font on this Merry Christmas stamp sold me on it. Just a little bit of the fun, curviness I love.

This Merry Christmas stamp is a true classic with a bit of that Victorian feel to it. I don’t often keep retired stamps but I will keep this one! It’s on sale now too; while supplies last. Click here to see it.

I paired it with the Traditions of Christmas designer paper here. It’s discounted and on the Last Chance list here. However it’s currently out of stock but should be back next week.
A bit of holly and berries with some ribbon and you’re done! As you can see I added the same DSP to my envelope flap. Now that makes a card extra special!

This next one features the Need for Tweed designer series paper. See that here. Fun prints with lots of texture. It’s also on sale right now and available while supplies last.

I stamped the inside with greetings from the Traditional Labels stamp set.

Aren’t they a beautiful set of cards! I will be making more of these and it’s a bonus that it uses up a nice piece of designer paper. No hoarding it!

Here’s the free project sheet for you. Click here to download or print it.

Stunning cards in the New Horizons card kit to go; or choose the PDF tutorial option

April 4, 2022
I couldn't decide which Designer Paper to feature for my April card kit to go so I did a poll on my Facebook group. The majority asked me to use the New Horizons DSP. I was leaning that way myself but their overwhelming response sealed the deal.

Here's a peak at the cards in this month's kit.

Save

This paper almost makes the card itself! The scenes are so beautiful you don't need much to finish them off. Because of that this month's kit includes an extra set of 2 bonus cards for a total of 12 instead of the usual 10.

This kit is what my monthly kit subscribers will receive. Opt in for the pre-cut kit by April 18th. It's $28 plus shipping.

You'll receive the following in your kit:
- 12 pre-cut cards, die-cut & punched pieces
- 1/2 pkg of the New Horizons 6 X 6" DSP
- a share of Pebbles Enamel Shapes
- a share of 1/8" cotton combo ribbon
- the PDF tutorial with photos, supplies, measurements & step by step directions.
You will need the following to complete the cards:
1. Paper Trimmer, adhesives, Black, Blackberry Bliss & Evening Evergreen inks
2. Stamps – I used the On the Horizon stamp set but you can substitute what you already own. #Add on the stamp set or bundle at 10% off and it will ship with your kit! *message me here to get a total if you want to add on the stamp set or bundle
Click here to get the PDF tutorial.

Click here to get the pre-cut kit to go (best deal)

The PDF tutorial is emailed to you immediately after payment. The kit will ship out at the end of April, barring any back-orders.

Here's a recent comment from a customer: I just received my kit loved the way you packaged it together I have bought other kits and yours is one of the better ones. The PDF is simple to understand for me and I so appreciate the time it took you to do all this. Many thanks.
