‘Ornament’ Christmas cards for quick & easy card making!


We're making ornament cards on tonight's Stamp with Me Live.  It's a quick & easy idea for your Christmas cards!


The designer paper is the Santa Express seen here.  It's filled with lots of great patterns; not just Santas & trains.  

Join me here Live at 7:30 pm CT.  The video will be on my YouTube channel by Tuesday, November 29th too. 

I chose an 'easy' card so those who feel rushed in getting their Christmas cards made. Plus these cards use your DSP and an embossing folder too; both make a card special. 
 
I added a Wonderful Snowflake to the designer paper circle for a quick, beautiful iridescent element.  These snowflakes will be well discounted on Thursday with the Last Chance List seen here: Download 2022 Holiday Catalog Last Chance
 
The greeting is from the Joyful Flurry stamp set. 
 
Join me here when I share some tips on making these fun and easy cards tonight. 
 
Gather these supplies:
  • Card bases 5 1/2" X 8 1/2"
  • White or neutral background layer 3 3/4" X 5", will be textured
  • Another layer 4" X 5 1/4"
  • 'ornament' circles cut from DSP – mine are almost 3" around
  • Silver or gold paper (or other) for the top of the ornament
  • Twine or thin ribbon
Other items: Greeting stamps, ink, embossing folder, snowflakes
 
I made one card into an easy fun fold by folding the front of the card base back on itself. For this one I chose to add greetings from the Holly Jolly Wishes stamp set. 

The card base is Mint Macaron with White & Poppy Parade accents.

  • New Catalog sneak peak inspired by a fun sketch


    Today I'm sharing a sneak peek of new products from the upcoming 2025 Annual Catalog by Stampin' Up!  

    I chose the Florals in Bloom designer paper and the Impressions Abloom stamp set plus new gems too!  My colors include Petunia Pop and Secret Sea plus white.  

    This layout was inspired by the following sketch.  I absolutely love using sketches for my inspiration.  I knew I wanted to feature the DSP but wasn't sure of my plan. This sketch fit the bill perfectly! 

    I made another pretty card that's totally different with this same sketch.  See it here.  

    As you can see I did not follow it exactly.  My DSP measures 2 3/4" X 4" and 2 1/4" X 3".  The diagonal layer (secret sea) is 1 1/8" wide.  

    The stamped greetings are from the 'The Right Words' stamp set.  One of my new favorite greeting sets.  You're going to love it! 

    I'll share another card featuring new products tomorrow.

  • Stunning guy cards in a pre-cut kit to go; limited quantity!


    I have a few of these wood textures guy card kits left in my shop.  They're filled with wood accents and textures. 

    I started with a Paper Pumpkin kit from last year and jazzed it up with extra cards, envelopes and layers.  

    It features 12 cards with envelopes all with woodgrain paper patterns. It includes pre-cut cards, Linen Thread and all the elements you see here. You'll need a few inks, greeting images, adhesives and a paper trimmer to cut a few card bases down. 

    Reserve yours soon; I have a limited quantity of these!

    The PDF tutorial will be send to you immediately after purchase. The card kit will be sent a few days afterwards, unless it's combined with an April kit. Then they'll ship out together at the end of April. 

    Here's a link to the kit; it's $30 plus shipping. Combine it with any other kit and save on shipping costs!

  • Heads up! Card stock prices are rising in the upcoming 2025-26 Annual Catalog


    Everything seems to be rising in cost these days and unfortunately Stampin' Up! is experiencing this as well.  Mill prices have risen quite a bit so the price for our solid core card stock is going up in the new 2025 Annual Catalog.  

    I know it's upsetting to hear this but it is understandable. I want Stampin' Up! to stay in business and continue to offer us high quality card stock & other products.  Solid core CS does cost more than white core to produce and many mills do not produce it. Our card stock is among the best in the paper crafting world!  

    So my advice to you is to stock up on your favorite colors or any that you use a lot.  The price change goes into effect in early May.  Here's a link to our beautiful card stock.  

    Luckily this is the only thing that we'll see a major price change in the upcoming new catalog. Yay!  It's easy to be negative about this but I have complete faith that Stampin' Up! does their best to keep prices as low as possible for us.
