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.

• Have a Hoot Bundle; for Christmas!

  October 23, 2020

  ---

  At first I thought this bundle was just for Halloween.  But when looking at the images provided it works wonderfully for Christmas too!  

  I made these cards on Facebook Live last week. I've been working with the beautiful Snowflake Splendor designer paper all week; it's simply gorgeous and in so many of my favorite colors!

  Here's the first one.  Did you know the Peek-a-Hoot dies cut out all 3 window at once?!  There's no measuring or figuring out placement at all.  You can see the video below.

  I stamped directly onto the Snowflake Splendor designer paper here.  I love the pretty purple/blue background!  The two owls are die-cut using the same die set.  I added a bit of color to them with Blends markers and finished with a bit of Balmy Blue glimmer accents and Adhesive Backed Snowflake Sequins. 

  This next card uses two of the tags left when die-cutting the windows on the card above.  I did cut out one extra.  I stamped and colored directly on them.

  Other details:

  • A glimmer die-cut star covers up the 'spider' on the center panel.  
  • The Highland Heather panel (4" X 5 1/4") is embossed with the Winter Snow embossing folder.
  • the 3/4" X 5 1/4" strip of Snowflake Splendor DSP is under the three stamped tags. 
  • The greeting tag is punched with the Everyday Label punch; start with a 1/2" white strip. Stamp and punch.

  October 22, 2020

  I created this card for a recent FB Live.  I was asked to share ideas and samples with my Life is Beautiful stamp set for a private Demonstrator only Facebook group.  What an honor it is to be asked!  

  Here's one of the cards I made.  I'll share more next week!
