Fun Holiday Cards Today Using A Quick And Easy Stencil

 Hello everyone.  I cannot believe this month is almost over.  The year has passed by so fast.  I have some easy Holiday cards since Christmas will be here before you know it.



I chose to use Extra Grinchy 6x6 Stencil from A Colorful Life Designs October 2024 Release.  I started out making one card and I really needed 2 show you how easy and fun these cards are to batch in no time.  You can use my code VonFan10 to save on your next purchase.  


On green paper 110 pound, I used the stencil and ink blended with evergreen ink from Concord & 9th.  I love how you get the sentiment too so you don't need to search your stash.  I cut this background to be 4 x 51/4,  I layered it on a red A2 panel and glued them to a A2 card base.  No embellishments and it's flat ready to be mailed.


And here is my other card.  I did the same just opposite.  I used black dye ink for this one.  So fun and easy.  I had so much fun making them.

 Hello everyone.  Today is our last day for the Build Your Stash Holiday cardmakers Falling For The Linly Party.  Oh my gosh I have been having so much fun.  I love all the inspiration.  Here's a few details Cards must be Christmas, Winter, Hanukkah, yuletide, etc.  Use Hashtag #fallingfortheholidays2024byshclp and use graphic so we can see your cards.




On my card, I used Sponsors Not 2 Shabby, Gina K Designs, Newtons Nook Designs, Therm O Web, and Colorado Craft Company.  

I started out ink blending the Gingham Stencil from Newtons Nook Designs with Catherine pooler Be Mine ink on white paper 110 pound.  I then colored in the cupcakes that are a digital stamp from Not 2 Shabby.  I colored them in Christmas Colors using pink also which I consider a Christmas color.  I cut out my cupcakes using a double stitched oval die from Gina K Designs master layout 1.  



I used some festive small images from Gina K Designs Playful penguins Stamp and Holiday Wreath Builder Stamp.  I used Catherine pooler Mardigras and Samba inks for those images.  I stamped around my cupcakes for fun.  I also used a dots image that I stamped in matching inks on the frosting of my cupcakes.  I used a Gina K Designs rectangle die from the same die set and cut out my stenciled background.   My sentiment was stamped with red ink using Colorado Craft Company Mommy Kissing Santa stamp set. I cut my sentiment using a  paper trimmer.  Everything was glued to a pink A2 card base and my cupcakes were popped up with foam tape by Therm O Web.  I used Merry Grinchmas Sprinkles from Kat Scrappiness to decorate my cupcakes.  I had so much fun making this card.

I believe I used all our Amazing Sponsors on my cards this week.

Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Falling For The Holidays Day 6

 Hello everyone.  I'm using RAM Stamps and A Colorful Life Designs today for Day 6 Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers Falling For The Holidays Linky Party.   Here's a few details Cards must be Christmas, Winter, Hanukkah, yuletide, etc.  Use Hashtag #fallingfortheholidays2024byshclp and use graphic so we can see your cards.





I adore these cute penguins and that bird.  So cute. This digital stamp is from Sponsor RAM Stamps called Penguin Hug.  I printed this stamp in different sizes and I loved this size for my card using Hammermill paper 100 pound.  I colored the cute critters in with my copic markers. I used Concord and 9th ink Aqua Sky and inked around my images. I then used a stencil from Sponsor A Colorful Life Designs called Flake Explosion.  I placed the stencil over my image using Concord & 9th ink Oceanside and Dove ink towards the bottom.  I was careful not to ink where I didn't want the stencil.  


Next, I cut out penguins using a rectangle die and I cut out some gray paper with a A2 size rectangle die.  I glued them to a A2 card base.  I used some liquid drops that dried like enamel drops.  I had so much fun making this card.  I love that sentiment included too.  Check out RAM Stamps there is a coupon code during the Linky Party.  I got another stamp that I hope to use soon.
