Poinsettia Christmas Card

I made this Christmas card using the Bijou version of Jayne Nestorenko's Poinsettia stamp set from Clarity Crafts.

Scandi Look Christmas Card

I decided to work on kraft card and create a Scandi look with the October 2021 Clarity Club stamp.

Elegant Christmas Card

I kept to a three colour palette to create this elegant Christmas card.

A Clean and Simple Christmas Card

Always good to have quick and easy ideas for Christmas cards so I though I'd share this one.

First Christmas Card of 2021

For my very first Christmas card of 2021 (the earliest one I have ever made in a year), I used the last Clarity New Design Stencil club offering of 2020 (#79) together with the October club stamp (#168).

Monochrome Christmas Robin

I decided to go with a monochrome look for this Christmas card using Tina's Christmas Robins from Clarity.

White Embossed Christmas Baubles on Kraft

I love the look of white embossing on kraft card.  Adding a dropped shadow creates an even better look.

A Wreath within a Wreath: A Christmas Card

For this Christmas card, I decided to extend the size of the card using a coordinating 7" x 7" stencil to match the stamp set.

Christmas Doves Pop-Out Card

For this Christmas card, I used the coordinating die to add interest to the pop-out section.

A Tree Frame Christmas Card

Christmas Card with Row of Winter Trees

I created a pattern using just one of the Trees and Mantel stamps on this rustic Christmas card.

Christmas Windows stamped in Alcohol Ink

Waste not, want not.  I stamped this row of Christmas windows using the alcohol ink lifted off the previous card.

Pergamano Christmas Poppet Card with Fairy Light Frame

There are lots of stencils that I could have chosen to frame this lovely image designed by Marina Fedotova, but I went with the fairy light wreath.

Mini Fedotova Christmas Poppets on Kraft Card

Boy it's hot.  I thought we could cool down a little with thoughts of Christmas.  The mini Pergamano Christmas Poppets stamps designed by Marina Fedotova don't have to be used in a cute way.  Embossed in white on kraft card, they attain a more masculine look.

Folded Christmas Tree with Homemade Patterned Paper

Rather than using a piece of ready made backing paper to create the Christmas tree, I decided to make one of my own.

Fusible Film Bauble

I can't get enough of these bauble overlay stamps designed by Barbara Gray!

Peace on Earth Bauble Trio

I used a second set of Barbara Gray's overlay bauble stamps to make this card.

Colourful Bauble on Kraft

For my second sample using the overlay bauble stamps I used one of the outline stamps only.

Purple and Blue Christmas Baubles

The new overlay baubles designed by Barbara Gray are simply gorgeous.  For my first sample I played with only one stamp, the masks and some Distress Oxides.

Merry Christmas Card: Holly and Ivy

The first Christmas card of the year not made as a sample or at a workshop.  I had a play with some stamps from Clarity that I bought in the recent Christmas sale.
