Quick Christmas cards in a kit or PDF tutorial

I created these eye catching cards as one of my October kits to go. They’re so fun and easy to make because this is a non-stamping kit!

They use a few of the new products in our 2026 Holiday catalog by Stampin’ Up!

This kit includes shares of the Season of Celebration ephemera pack, the Creative Celebrations 6 X 6″ DSP, Red & White Baker’s Twine and a Festive Flecks cards & envelopes pack. You’ll also receive the PDF tutorial too! There is $20 in product in this kit!

This kit is $32 plus shipping. See it here. Or choose the PDF tutorial for $17; see that here. This tutorial is sent to you immediately after payment.

This kit will be mailed out at the end of October in plenty of time to create for Christmas. I will be offering one more new Christmas cards kit next week; so stay tuned.

• Bamboo Beauty with unique backgrounds & video tutorial

  July 1, 2021

  The Bamboo Beauty stamp set caught my eye right away.  I knew it would be perfect for unique background techniques. click here to see it.  

  I featured it in this week's Facebook Live.  See it here on my FB page or here on YouTube.  Or scroll down to watch it right here.

  What do you think?  I know some people aren't into bamboo or this Asian style but it's so my style!  I call this type of set a 'scene builder' which inspires me to use techniques to create unique backgrounds.

  I'm focusing on this card today.  The colors are Misty Moonlight, Black & White with a touch of purple.  I used Fresh Freesia on the upper left card and Highland Heather on the right. I used our Blending Brushes for the background, black twine from the Essentials pack and a greeting label from the Messages die.
