The Stamping Owl

Here are the cards from my Jingle Bells stamp and go class.  Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!  Recipes are included with each project and the supply details are listed at the end of this post.  Thanks for stopping by!

Card 1: Jingle Bells

This card features the Celebrate Everything DSP and two-step stamping.  The JINGLE outline is stamped in Pacific Point ink, then filled in with another stamp using Pool Party ink.  For the bells, they were stamped with Granny Apple Green ink, then the star on the bell with Pacific Point ink, and the red rhinestone gives it some bling.  The Celebrate Everything DSP has so many patterns to choose from, you can just change up the sentiments and ink colors to match the pattern!    

Here is the recipe:

• Stamp Set: Jingle Jingle Jingle
• Celebrate Everything Designer Series Paper (host product from the holiday mini catalog) 4 x 5 ¼”
• Pool Party cardstock 5 ½ x 8 ½”
• Pacific Point cardstock 2 x 4”
• Basic White cardstock 1 ¾ x 3 ¾”
• Red Rhinestones
• Classic Ink Pads: Pacific Point, Pool Party, Granny Apple Green

Card 2: Merry Christmouse

This cute little mouse is ready for the night before Christmas.  It was punched from the Penguin Builder punch.  Then the eyes and whiskers were drawn with a black marker, ears with a pink marker, and a red rhinestone nose.  He’s standing by a present and in front of trees from the Spruced Up stamp set.  This is a pocket card so you can include a gift card, packet of tea or other similar item.  The photo below shows 2 options for sentiments—my favorite being the handwritten modification to “merry christmouse”.

• Stamp Set: Spruced Up *, Penguin Place (sentiment)

Card 3: Gingerbread House

This card features the Sweet Gingerbread bundle and Sweetest Christmas DSP to create a sweet holiday scene.  The house was stamped on Basic White cardstock in Crumb Cake ink, then windows in Pool Party ink, then designs door/window outlines in Early Espresso ink.  It was then die cut along with the roof scalloped edge in Early Espresso cardstock.  The snow hill background and steps, smoke cloud and lollipops (stamped in Real Red first) were die cut as well.  The Sweet Gingerbread has more cute images and coordinating dies to create many different house, such as a wreath, gumdrops, trees and heart.

Card 4: Penguin Fishing

This cute little penguin is fishing for holiday gifts.  The fish is from the Party Puffins stamp set.  The rest of the images are from the Penguin Place stamp set.  For the water and ice patch, the Layering Diorama dies were used.  I decided to use Fresh Freesia as the accent color (hat, scarf, present, words) to pick up on the lavender/pink shimmer on the adhesive snowflakes. 

Here is the recipe:

• Stamp Set: Penguin Place, Party Puffins, Christmas to Remember (sentiment)
• Celebrate Everything Designer Series Paper (host product from the holiday mini catalog) 3 x 4”
