Ho Ho Hope left our theme quite broad for Day 13 of the #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge. I chose Hope for my focus. I used the Peace to You stamp set to remind us of the hope and meaning of Christmas. A classic and simple colour palette of Black, White and Silver was used. To achieve a crisp…
Hi friend, Welcome to the November Ink. Stamp. Share Blog Hop. I’m so glad I’ve got this blog hop as I’ve been in a bit of a crafting rut this past week and this has forced me to get on the job! It’s a little bit different today as we are sharing handmade Christmas tree…
Welcome to Stamping Flair in Melbourne, Australia. I’m blog hopping with my friends at the New at SU team and the theme is Happy Holidays. I have chosen the Wishes & Wonder bundle to highlight. With it’s reindeer and sleigh and other images, it is a very cute set to work with. I particularly like…
I have made it to Day 30 of the #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge and it’s an all encompassing theme of All I Want for Christmas. I apologize in advance if you now have Mariah Carey singing in your head all day long! You have 2 more months of that to go!! I quite like that song but I…

They provide a great base for cards and can help to soften strong colours. I first chose the ‘Tis the Season Designer Series Paper for the…

I’ve used the ornaments from the Cherish the Season stamp set to create my focal image, replacing the snowflake in the sketch. I coloured the ornaments in Just Jade Stampin’…
On the home stretch of the #30DayChristmasCardMakingChallenge. How much fun this has been. Today’s theme is all about gift wrap and bows. I probably could have done a combined Day 24 and Day 25. Want to know why? Check out Day 24 here. I love Christmas, what it means and I love the tradition of…
Day 24 of the #30DayChristmasCardMaking Challenge brought along the colour combination of Old Olive, Purple Pumpkin and Rich Razzleberry. Although, together it’s a lovely combination, it wasn’t the regular Christmas colours one would put together. It actually has a bit of an autumn look to it. So the challenge was to make this card look…
