Festive Friday: Llama Fun Fold Card Featuring Long Time No See

Leave a comment

Welcome back to another Festive Friday! This week I’m continuing my Christmas card series with a fun and festive creation using the Long Time No See stamp set — the same set I featured in this week’s Card Class To Go.

This card is all about holiday cheer, bright colours, and a playful layout! It features a bold Granny Apple Green card base with a fun fold layout, making it extra interactive and perfect for sending a bit of joy this holiday season.

🎨 Design Details:

  • Stamp Set: Long Time No See
  • Card Base: Granny Apple Green
  • Designer Series Paper: Take a Bow DSP (retiring – Last Chance!)
  • Colouring: Stampin’ Blends in Crumb Cake, Real Red, Granny Apple Green, and Shaded Spruce
  • Embellishments: Peppermint Dots add a sweet, dimensional touch
  • Sentiment: “Merry Merry Merry Christmas” – a playful stacked greeting to match the llama’s long scarf!

I love how this card combines whimsy with traditional Christmas colours. The Take a Bow DSP adds a fun polka-dot backdrop, and this fold is sure to stand out on the mantel.

✂️ Tips & Tricks:

  • Mix and match Stampin’ Blends for a soft, blended fur effect on the llama.
  • Stack your sentiments with dimensionals for added depth.
  • Use a white gel pen to add highlights to your lights or scarf for a pop of brightness.

📦 Don’t Forget!
The Take a Bow DSP is on the Last Chance List, so grab it before it’s gone! And if you loved this stamp set, check out this week’s Card Class To Go featuring more fun llama-themed designs!

Festive Friday: Sending a Jar Full of Cheer!

Leave a comment

After a brief rest from Festive Friday (end-of-school exhaustion is real!), I’m back and excited to share this vibrant Christmas card featuring the brand-new Jar of Joy stamp set — an Online Exclusive you won’t find in any catalogue!

I lThis cheerful card came together using the following festive favourites:

🎄 Jar of Joy Stamp & Die Bundle – Online Exclusive
🎄 Take a Bow 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper – Last Chance item
🎄 Pearlized Enamel Effects Basics – Last Chance item
🎄 Iridescent Pearls – for a subtle holiday sparkle
🎄 Basics 3D Embossing Folder – for the textured background

The adorable jar is filled with gingerbread cookies and festive treats, and the sentiment “Sending a jar full of cheer” adds the perfect seasonal message. I layered strips of DSP to create a fun, playful background and popped the jar up with dimensionals for added interest.

🫙 CRAFTING TIP: Use scraps of coordinating DSP to build quick and dynamic backgrounds — it’s a great way to use every last bit of your paper!

Festive Friday #11 – Humble Home Bundle Christmas Card

Leave a comment

Happy Festive Friday, crafters! This week, I’m featuring the Humble Home Bundle to create a cozy, classic Christmas card with warm gingerbread vibes. If you love simple yet elegant holiday cards, this design is perfect for you!

How It Came Together:

I started by embossing a Basic White 4″ X 5-1/4″ panel with the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder to create a subtle, textured background. The 1/2″ vertical strips of Take a Bow DSP add a modern yet festive look with their real red design.

The star of the card is the adorable house from the Humble Home Bundle, which I heat embossed in white on Pecan Pie cardstock. This gives it that charming gingerbread house effect! I punched out the image and popped it up on a Stylish Shapes stitched circle die-cut to help it stand out.

To finish it off, I stamped Merry Christmas in Real Red and scattered some tiny Peppermint Dots around the house.

Why You’ll Love This Card:

✔ Quick and easy holiday design
✔ Great way to use DSP scraps
✔ The embossed background adds dimension without bulk
✔ Perfect for mass-producing Christmas cards
