North Pole Littles with Amy

Posted by Amy Young | Dec 23, 2022 | Uncategorized

Hello! It’s Amy with my final blog post of 2022 here on the HB blog. With Christmas just days away I found myself reaching for the North Pole Littles stamp set so I could have some fun with Santa as he prepares for his big night. There are so many adorable characters included in this set that it can be hard to choose which ones to ink up. So I went to my collection of HB dies to see how much room I would be working with and when I settled on the Nesting Mini Slimline die I could...

Holly and Pine with Sara

Hi Bluebird Friends, Sara here! Today it’s my turn over the Hello Bluebird Blog and I have a Christmas card to show you. I went out of my comfort zone, using many die cuts and creating a vintage look on this card. I wanted to create a “partial” wreath on the left and bottom side, with a bigger sentiment on the upper left part of the card. I started die cutting many pieces from the Holly and Pine and the Pine Boughs. I used a combination of colored cardstock for the branches and the pines, and some white die...

Happy Sunday together – I’m back today to share another Christmas card.

I used: Deck the Tree stamp set O Christmas Tree stamp set City Sidewalks stamp set Snow Globe Builder die I stamped all images on alcohol marker friendly paper and colored them with my Copics. After this I have cut them out with the coordinating dies. I also cut out the snow globe...

Hey friends, it’s Christy here with a scene taken out of my own life. One of my favorite Christmas pastimes is reading by the light of the Christmas tree. There’s just something about those twinkling lights that makes the story come alive and seem even more magical. So on this card, I wanted to capture that feeling, by combining stamps from Page Turner, Cozy Christmas Eve, and O Christmas Tree. I also wanted to go with a non-traditional color palette, so I did everything in pastels. I colored all the images with Copic markers and trimmed them out with...

Quiet Christmas with Anja

Hi everyone, Anja here sharing one last Christmas card for this year. The Quiet Christmas stamp set is one of the first holiday sets that has been released. And I still love it so much! I created a Clean & Simple card with it – this design works well for a last-minute card or even mass production. First, I created an A2 sized card base from white heavyweight cardstock. For the background, I used the Distress Mica Stain Spray in the gorgeous color ‘Merry Mint’. It’s so easy to use and adds a subtle shimmer to your project. I...
