Hello . It’s Wednesday, and that means it’s time for some stamping fun!
It’s been a week full of creativity, colour, and a touch of holiday sparkle! ✨ I kicked things off with Unexpected Fun Fold Card featuring the Notes & Totes Bundle, paired with the bright and cheerful Celebratory Sips Designer Series Paper — full of personality and pizzazz! I even added a
handmade gift card holder to make it extra special.
Then came the July Paper Pumpkin Kit – Sweeter With You, where I created three fun alternative cards using the kit and the Circle of Season Add-On Dies. Then we jumped into festive mode with a gorgeous Christmas card featuring the Peace On Earth Bundle and the easy, elegant 3-3-3
technique. You’ll also find a free card tutorial using the Mixed Media Floral Suite — complete with some tiny bee trinkets and a twine bow — to help you create something sweet and full of charm. Let’s take a look at everything you may have missed! Stampin'
