Layered Merry Christmas Foliage | Spellbinders

HEY FRIENDS! It’s World Cardmaking Day! Now there’s a holiday that I can get behind! And since I’m in full holiday cardmaking mode, I have a simple Christmas card to honor the day featuring the Layered Merry Christmas Foliage stencil set by Spellbinders. Since the design is stenciled, this would be an easy card to make in bulk for the holidays. I stuck with traditional Christmas colors, but non-traditional color palettes would work just as well.

As always, I’ve linked supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.

This card is really easy to put together. I’ve created a short video showing you the stenciling portion of the card.

Since I work on a Glassboard, I usually hold down my stencils with magnets. However, there wasn’t enough of a margin on the stencil so I simply held the stencils in place with Pixie Repositionable Tape. It’s a low tack tape and peels off cleanly. I also used domed foam blenders for the ink blending. Since they’re relatively inexpensive, I can have a blender for each ink pad rather than a blender for each color family.

That’s all for now!

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.

Featured Supplies

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!

Corbel Collage Wafer Die by Simon Says Stamp

HEY FRIENDS! Today I have something a little different – a card with absolutely no Copic coloring! I pulled some dies and paper out of my stash, including the Corbel Collage Wafer Die by Simon Says Stamp. I love the beautiful tree design and while it would also be lovely as an inlaid design, I decided to keep it quick and simple with some ink blending. As always, I’ve linked supplies with compensated affiliate links used where possible at no cost to you.

FEATURED PRODUCTS

Using the Chunky A2 Scalloped Rectangle Dies, I trimmed a piece of Hammermill cardstock and then used the Corbel Collage Wafer Die to cut the design from the middle. I stamped the sentiment from the Bitty Holiday Wishes using Versafine ink. I added foam tape to the back and set it aside.

Next, I cut a scrap of Hammermill cardstock and ink blended it using Distress inks in Rustic Wilderness, Mowed Lawn and Twisted Citron (I don’t remember the exact dimensions, but it was sized slightly larger than the size of the Corbel die).

I cut an A2 card base from Neenah Classic Crest and adhered a piece of design paper cut to size from the Cheerful Plaid 6×6 paper pad by My Favorite Things. I die cut a piece of Hammermill smooth cardstock using the Folk Edge Rectangles Die Set and assembled the layers as shown.

That’s all for today!
