Hedgey Holidays Cards with Rachel and Candice

Hello, crafty friends! It's Rachel here and I have some fun Christmas tags to share with you today featuring the sweetest little hedgehog from the Hedgey Holidays Stamp Set. I combined this cute little mini stamp set with the Build-A-Tag #2 Die Set and the Holiday Cheer 6x6 Paper Pack to create some easy tags that would go great with your Christmas gifts!

I stamped my hedgehogs onto a sheet of Neenah Solar White 110lb Card Stock and colored them with Copics. (Colors used: Body: E41, E41, E43, E44; Spines: E31, E23, E25; Reds: R46, R89; Greens: YG01, YG07, YG17, G28; Blues: B0000, B01, B02, B06; Whites: 0, C00, C2, C4.) I used the coordinating Dies to cut them out and attached them to my tags with some 3D Foam Adhesive Tape.

I cut a second coordinating tag layer to attach behind all of my tags and stamped each of them with some "To:" and "From:" sentiments from the Christmas Icons Stamp Set. I fished off each tag by stamping the sentiment onto another strip of white card stock and attaching it all together with some green & white striped twine.

I hope you enjoyed my tags today! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hey, it's Candice here. This little cutie is part of the Black Friday deals at Sunny Studio Stamps and I used it to make a cute Christmas card!

All the Sunny Studio Stamps products I used:

• Hedgey Holidays stamps & coordinating dies 
• Scenic Route stamp set & coordinating dies (lights)
• Christmas Garland Frame dies (merry christmas)
• Hogs & Kisses dies

I started my card by creating an 8 1/2 x 3 1/2 card base which fits into a standard or 9A size envelope. For the background, I first inked a trimmed piece with worn lipstick & spun sugar and splattered with red shimmer spray. I then repeatedly stamped the Hedgehogs, colored them with Copic markers and die cut one extra and pop dotted on top of the center one.

To finish the card, I added some strings of lights that I layered for depth along with the Merry Christmas topped with foil mint paper. I also added the sentiment onto the speech bubble along with the holly colored with Copics.

Make sure you take advantage of the Black Friday deal at Sunny Studio Stamps here!

All retail purchases of any size will have 10% donated to Convoy of Hope to help with children’s feeding initiatives and disaster response.

And as always orders will also come with our mini holiday light bulb die (not pictured).

Build-A-Tag Holiday Tags: Ugly Christmas Sweater Tags with Juliana

Happy Holidays friends! It's Juliana Michaels and today I'm here to share a set of Ugly Christmas Sweater Tags featuring the Build-A-Tag die sets and Christmas Icons stamp set.

For these tags, begin by creating the tag base. Cut 3 pieces of patterned paper from the Holiday Cheer 6x6" paper pad using the scalloped edged die from Build-A-Tag #2. Use this same die to cut 3 more tags from white cardstock and set them to the side.

Next, take the other tag die in the Build-A-Tag #2 set and position it as shown in the photo on top of the tags you just cut.

Make sure you line the die up so that it doesn't cut off the bottom scalloped edges. You are using this die to cut the “V” in the top of the tag. This will create the top of your sweater.

Take the straight edge and angled dies from the Build-A-Tag #1 set and die cut a piece of the striped patterned paper from the Holiday Cheer 6x6 paper pad. This will become the trim on your sweaters.

Once you have all of the pieces die cut. You can begin to assemble the tags. Adhere the “V” cut piece on top of the solid white die cut tag.

Next, adhere the trim to the bottom of the tag making sure to cover the scallops. Then adhere the trim along the “V” edge at the top of the tag.

The final step is to decorate your Ugly Christmas Sweater Tags using some of the fun images from the Christmas Icons stamp set. I probably could have gone a bit uglier, but I stuck with one image for each tag and colored them with Copic markers.

So, how would you decorate your Ugly Christmas Sweater Tags? I hope you enjoyed today's project and thanks so much for joining me today!

Build-A-Tag Handmade With Love Holiday Gift Tags with Lexa

Hello everyone! Lexa here with some gift tags that will be perfect for Christmas. I'm using Build-A-Tag #2 Dies for this project and pairing it with older stamp sets. Since I will bake some treats for my relatives, I picked Blissful Baking Stamps that is a perfect match. Let's get started right away.

First of all, I die cut the base tags on kraft cardstock and stamped some kitchen utensils randomly with tone on tone dye ink. It makes my theme keep on track. Next will be stamp all the images with Versafine black ink and watercolor them with Distress Markers. The sweet little angles are from Little Angels Stamps and others are from Blissful Baking Stamps.

Adding some gingham patterned papers on top of the tags in pastel colors seemed like a good idea. I stamped the sentiment "handmade with love" from the older Christmas Icons Stamps that has a lot of perfect sentiments for your gift tags. You will need that one for sure!

I fussy cut the cookies and use coordinating dies for other images. I use foam tapes to adhere the little angels to give a little bit of dimensions. Last but not least, I add some ribbons and twines. These sweet little tags will be a thoughtful touch for the sweet treats I'll be baking pretty soon! I hope everyone will love it. Here's a closer look.

Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope you get some inspirations by today's post. Have a wonderful day to you and your beloved ones!

Jolly Gingerbread Pink And Green Gingerbread Christmas Card with Lexa

Hello there! Lexa here today with a holiday card highlighting the cutest stamp set of all, Jolly Gingerbread stamp and the coordinating dies. I love this one to bits. I can't believe that Christmas is almost here so you'd better get started making some holiday cards for your special ones.

Pink and green lately have become my most favorite color combination, I used them on so many cards without I realized it. So maybe this color combination can be your inspiration beside the classic red and green for this holiday. I stamped all the images with Versafine black ink and watercolor them with Distress Markers. After I finished with the coloring, I use the coordinating dies to perfectly cut them all. I also add some detail for the ginger bread friends, the scarf, pearl necklace and also cute hair. I think they are absolutely adorable.

The smaller tree biscuit is come from last year holiday stamp set called Christmas Icons, which surprisingly match well with this stamp set, and help me to build the scene even more cuter. I stamped some small images on the pink background with pink dye ink to fill in the blank space and a little bit more balanced the whole card.

I mixed some of the sentiments on the set to create my own sentiment, which I'm not really sure what it means ... but I hope it makes sense. Lol. This super sweet scene will make anyone's day even brighter on Christmas day.

Thank you so much for stopping by today. I hope you have a blissful day!

2017 Cat Lovers Hop with Fireplace Card with Eloise

Today we're thrilled to be a sponsor for the 2017 Cat Lovers Hop so with that theme in mind, Eloise has created one of the cutest cat themed Christmas cards:

Hi everyone, Eloise here and today I have a shaped card to share with you all using the brand new Fireplace Dies which is so super fun and I'll also be using the Santa's Helpers and Christmas Icons stamp sets to create my scene.

To begin my card, I first stamped out four stockings from the Christmas Icons stamp set and the cat in stocking and cat tree image from the Santa's Helpers stamp set and coloured them all in using Copic Markers. I then used both coordinating die sets to cut out all my images.

Next up, it was time to create my card base. I used the Fireplace Dies and first cut out the main panel out of some kraft cardstock. Next up I cut out a ton of brick images from the same kraft cardstock. I then used Gathered Twigs and Antique Linen Distress Inks to colour my main fireplace panel and used Fired Brick Distress Ink to ink blend over all the bricks. I then used some liquid glue to adhere them all down into place. Once all my bricks were adhered down, I used some watercolour cardstock and ink blended some Mustard Seed, Carved Pumpkin, Festive Berries and Black Soot Distress Inks into each corner, then cut the flames and fire stand from each of the colours. I then took some gold foil cardstock and cut the fireplace arch from it also. I then wanted the inside of the fire place to look black and charred. So I used the negative piece from the arch die, adhered it over the top of my panel and ink blended Black Soot Distress Ink on the inside over the bricks to make it look charred.

Now all my pieces were ready to be adhered together. I first adhered my gold arch around the outside of black arched piece and then adhered the fire stand and flames on top. I used foam tape behind the rest of my images and for all the stockings, I pierced a hole through each of the hanger pieces and threaded some hemp cord through, to make it seem like all the stockings were hanging over the fire. Before tying a bow to hold them all in place, I added two jingle bells onto the string, then tied it into a bow. Lastly, I adhered the tree cat next to the fire. 

To finish up, I white heat embossed the 'Meowy Christmas' sentiment from Santa's Helpers onto a strip of black cardstock, and adhered it with more foam tape onto the bottom of my panel. To make this panel into a card, I cut down a card base to 4 3/4" x 4" and adhered it onto the back of my fireplace. You could cut an additional fireplace base, score the top and adhere it onto the back - but I decided to do it this way this time around. 

In honor of the hop Sunny Studio is donating a $25 gift code to our online store so make sure to check out the Peaceful Garden blog for details on how you can win. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I'll see you next time!

Jolly Gingerbread Script Background Sweet Christmas Card with Vanessa

Hello sweet Sunny Studio friends! Vanessa here with my first Christmas card of the year! Mendi has outdone herself again with this wonderful winter release - I love love love the new sets! For today's card I chose to use Jolly Gingerbread.

I trimmed a panel from script patterned paper (taken from Pinkfresh Studio’s Oh Joy paper pad) ... slightly smaller than the striped card base and adhered it. Now I stamped the images from Jolly Gingerbread, Playful Polar Bears and Christmas Icons onto a piece of white cardstock, colored them with Copics, die-cut them with the matching dies and adhered everything to the card.

Finally, I colored a rectangle of white cardstock with green Copics, stamped the sentiment and adhered it to the card with foam tape.

One Christmas card done, more to follow :) Thank you so much for stopping by today!!
