Wishes all Around Christmas card with video & free project sheet


I hope you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving holiday weekend. We sure did!  We spent it with our kids – playing games, making puzzles and of course enjoying wonderful food.

Have you noticed the Wishes All Around bundle in the 2023 Holiday catalog?  

I've always loved wreaths.  In fact I used to collect them and put them up at Christmas time on a big wall in my dining room. 

I thought this Wishes All Around stamp bundle seen here had a wide variety of pretty stamps and wonderful dies. 

I heat embossed the tree wreath image in White embossing powder and die-cut it with the coordinating dies. I added it onto three cut panels from the Brushed Gold Cards & envelopes; each one cut at 1 5/8" X 4" and added to my Navy card base. These panels are textured with the Snowflake Sky 3D embossing folder.

I love the fact that you can cut the Brushed Gold cards & envelopes into two card fronts; more bang for your buck! 

Below is a photo of all of the card swaps I made.  I truly love these Brushed Gold cards & envelopes. I've found them quite versatile and easy to use. 

Here's a photo of this sweet bundle. As you can see it has three die-cut wreaths, snowflakes, trees and stems/berries. All meant to coordinate with the stamp set. 

I made a second version in the video last week. Which do you prefer?

Bow on top or on the bottom of the wreath?  Gold or white embossed greeting?


Below is the video where I shared this pretty card.  Unfortunately this video has some blurry spots; I hope you can bear with me!

  • Daisy Garden stamp for easy cards!


    I had time to play with this pretty Daisy Garden background stamp and created this summery card: 

    I stamped the image in Polished Pink ink onto a panel of 3 3/4" X 5 1/4" White card stock.  I colored it in with blends markers in Polished Pink and Granny Apple Green.  I did add a bit of yellow to the daisy centers with a sponge dauber. I colored the White ribbon with the light Polished Pink Blends marker before tying a bow. 

    Next I cut the White CS into three panels measuring 1 1/4" wide before I adhered them to the main card. 

    The 'thanks' greeting is from the Artistically Inked stamp set.  It's stamped onto one of the die-cuts in the Picture This die set seen here.  I love that you get multiple quick 'stitched' die-cuts from just one cut.  They're great for windows or greeting dies and with just one cut and you can use the window of the die-cuts!

  • Want to make a Bay Window card? It’s easy! Stamp with Me Live tonight at 7:30 pm CT!


    Tonight on my Stamp with Me Live we're making 'Bay Window' cards.  These are so fun and actually quite simple to make.  Scroll down to see the measurements.  

    You can watch the video here on my Facebook page.  If you're not on FB you can see it later when I upload it to my YouTube channel here.  *Don't forget to follow me!

    It starts out with a standard 4 1/4" X 11" piece of card stock. Add some scored lines and designer paper and you're halfway there!  

    For this first example I chose to use the Plentiful Plants bundle.  The Bloom Where You're Planted designer paper is on sale in July. You can see it here.  

    I used the Everyday Label punch for the greetings here.  There's an easy way to create a curved edge and a perfect layer.  Watch tonight to see how.  

    Here's the second version I made with the Beauty of the Earth designer paper.  It's also on sale too!  

    I used the same stamp set; Plentiful Plants for the greeting.  I did add a few pieces of the In Good Taste DSP here for the wood paper.  It works so well for nature themed cards.  

    Here's the video!

    Bay Window Cards Measurements:

    • Card base – 4 1/4" x 11". Score on long side at 3/8", 1 7/8", 3 5/8", 5 1/8", 5 1/2"
    • 1st DSP – 4 1/8" x 6". Cut in order at 1 3/8", 1 5/8", 1 3/8", 1 5/8"
    • 2nd DSP – 3 strips at ¼” X 4 1/8”
