Let It Snow Simple Stamping

I wanted to show you three different ways you can use the Snowman Season Stamp Set to create an amazing Christmas Card. 

The first card just uses Whisper White cardstock and Coastal Cabana Cardstock. I cut the Coastal Cabana cardstock to 4" x 5 1/4" and adhered it to my card base. I then cut a 3" x 4 1/2" Whisper White rectangle to stamp my image at the bottom right and sentiment at the top left. I did dress my image up by using the Pool Party Stampin' Blends pens to outline the snowman. I just love this monochromatic look.

On the second card, I just added a piece of Let it Snow Designer Series Paper (DSP).  I love how this dresses it up a little. 

On the third card, I cut the DSP to 4" x 5 1/4" and used that instead of the cardstock for the background. I stamped the same image on the white card stock and cut a piece of Coastal Cabana Cardstock to 3 1/4" x 4 3/4" and adhered to the back of the snowman and sentiment. I also dressed this one up with some sparkle by adding Wink of Stella on top of the sentiment and outline of the snowman.

These cards were simple to make and only took a few tools and supplies. This is a great way to begin your stamping journey if you are new to it or a great way to use up some of your Designer Series Papers for Christmas cards.

You can purchase any of the supplies by visiting my store HERE.

Whisper White Cardstock

Coastal Cabana Cardstock

Snowman Season Stamp Set

A Plaid Christmas Cheer card

This beautiful card was created using the Perfectly Plaid stamp and punch bundle. This card was CASEd (Copy And Share Everything) directly from the Holiday Catalog. I just love the trees against the plaid paper.  And the ribbon is the perfect trim in the center of this card to make the sentiment stand out even more. This is a perfect, gender-neutral card, that anyone would love to get this holiday season. 

This card was also made using simple stamping. The only tools needed are a paper trimmer, the stamp set, and the punch to make the trees. Great card for beginning up to advanced crafters. 

You can purchase all the items needed to make this beautiful card HERE.

Christmas Roses from the Chrismas Time is Here Suite

 

I LOVE this suite. It includes such beautiful Designer Series Paper. This card is considered #SimpleStamping.  The only tools needed are a paper trimmer, stamp blocks, and adhesive. The paper is all trimmed to rectangles. The center of the front of the card is a strip of Whisper White paper and a strip of the Christmas Time is Here Designer Series Paper. 

The bow is created using the beautiful Gold Ribbon that comes in this suite. The edges sparkle. I have been putting this ribbon on everything lately. I just love it. 

This suite is only available for a limited time and only while supplies last. Be sure to check out my shopping link here, or my facebook page here to see more cards made with this amazing suite.
