Tim Holtz December Doodles | Stampers Anonymous

HEY FRIENDS! I’m ending the week with a quick post, which is appropriate since this was a quick card to put together. Today’s project features the Tim Holtz December Doodles stamp set by Stampers Anonymous. As always, I’ve linked supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.

This card really was quick and easy to put together and you could use the same layout for any of the stamps in the set. For the background, I used the Nesting Rectangle Infinity Dies to cut three panels from Hammermill cardstock. The largest panel was stenciled using Distress Ink in Lost Shadow and the Holiday Knit Stencil. On the smallest panel, I stamped the Santa image and sentiment using Hero Arts Intense Black Ink and colored the hat with TWO Copic markers (R24 and R46). The layers were assembled as shown. It really doesn’t get much easier than this!

Flower Garden by Stampers Anonymous

GOOD AFTERNOON FRIENDS! As you know, I slipped off to the Allentown Rubber Stamp & Paper Arts Festival on Friday. Had a great time there. Spent some time with Tracy Beck, owner of Photo Scraps, and saw a few of my students there (hey Kathy & Diane!). Came home with some new dies from Elizabeth Craft Designs and new stamps from Penny Black and Altenew. I splurged and bought a set of the 32 pan Altenew Watercolors so that I can give watercoloring another try. I’m spending today trying to get everything labeled, organized, and put away so that I can find the top of my desk and start coloring again.

I’m leaving you today with a card that I actually created last year for a class at The Queen’s Ink, but for some reason never posted after class. This is the card that got me started on making my own backgrounds and playing with mixed media. Still clean and simple, but includes stenciling with Distress Inks, stamping, heat embossing, Copic coloring, fussy cutting (this was in my pre-Scan N Cut days), and die cuts for the background layers.

Hope this inspires you to color today! Until next time ….
