HEY FRIENDS! It’s time for another Anita Jeram release from Colorado Craft Company. We have bunnies and kittens and mice (OH MY!) as well as two giveaways and a blog hop so be sure to read all the way to the end for all the details. And as always, I’ve linked supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.
TODAY’S PROJECT
I have three cards for you today, all created using the Anita Jeram Dear Santa stamp set. The set includes clear photopolymer stamps with a dog, a bunny and a mouse writing and mailing letters to Santa in a snow-covered mailbox. The stamps can be used with the coordinating Dear Santa complete dies set (AJ733-D) and the Dear Santa single die set (AJ745-D) both sold separately. This stamp set includes 7 images and 5 sentiments.
Once I got started, I was quickly on a roll making cards. Coordinating dies are also available for this stamp set, although I didn’t use them here.
All of the images and sentiments were stamped on Hammermill Smooth cardstock using Hero Arts Intense Black Ink and colored with Copic markers (see marker lists below). After coloring, the image panel was trimmed using Hero Arts Infinity Rectangle dies and I adhered craft foam to the back for dimension using Beacon’s 3-in-1 Craft Adhesive. The front panel was then glued to an A2 cardbase cut from Neenah Classic Crest.
So let’s take a closer look!

Beautiful cards. All are so cute. I like the Naughty or Nice card.
I love the way you post your comics. It makes it much easier to visualize.
Love them all, but card number two cracks me up! I love these cards, and this entire release so much!!!💜
They are all so cute.
Nancy – your use of this set is inspiring! Simple and having the copic colors makes me think I can give it a go! Merry Christmas!
Wow what cute crisp happy cards. I love how you show your colors. I am worse than a copid novice and almost avoid them, but you kinda made me think I might try it seeing the colors used next to each other. Thanks. Thinking I might screenshot and print to start a starting place.
Oh goodness!!! Love them all especially the I tried one.
Three fun cards – it’s amazing how each designer is coming up with a different look.
So much inspiration from just one of Anita Jeram’s adorable new stamps! Every card is cuter than the last! She would be proud to see what you did! Glad you listed the Copics you used!!
