With this week's Mojo Monday sketch (MOJO155), you'll get the perfect opportunity to mix and patch coordinating paper. I used three patterns from Stampin' Up! Deck the Halls Designer Series Paper, a new product in the Holiday Mini Catalog. Elegant and quick!
STAMPIN' PRETTY TIPS:
-
The adorable stamps from Greeting Card Kids look as good as line stamps as they do watercolored (a pretty alternative). - The Circle Scissor Plus is just what you need to make circles from 1" to 6". I used it to size the Very Vanilla (3") and Early Espresso (3 3/8") Circles.
- I used sponges on the edges of the focal image and a Color Spritzer Tool to give an antiqued finish.
-
I'm a pushover for stamps with coordinating punches. The ornament stamp is from Tags til Christmas (Holiday Mini Catalog) and is cropped with precision using the Ornament Punch Extra Large.

This card is so cute, and I love the ornament as a tag. Adorable.
Such a cute card! Puts me in the mood for making Chrismas cards! 🙂
Love how you used the Ornament Punch as the tag! Your card is beautiful as always!
I love your black and white image!!! I think that is such a terrific idea. Your card is fabulous!!! You know I always love that touch of black you add. Hugs,
Mary such a beautifully constructed card. The 3 different papers blend so well together and of course the ornament dangling is perfect as the tag. I too am a pushover for dies that match stamp sets, (guess I better pull out my Delightful Decorations) oh, wait I haven’t done Fall yet! Lovely card.
OK. I just ordered the ornament punch and stamp set after seeing this card. Thank you Mary for showing us how to use all these wonderful products!
This is a beautiful card Mary. I know if someone sent this to me at Christmas, it would make my day. I would be running around showing it off to everyone. I’m in the middle of trying to organize my stamp room and you have just inspired me to make progress today so I can start stamping for Christmas!!! Thank you.
Sweet, elegant, perfect.
Mary,
This is a really darling card. Love the paper combo and the use of the little Greeting Card Kid. So vintage and nostalgic, too 😉
Stunning!
This is so pretty, Mary! Love that sweet little ornament tag!
I LOVE that stamp set! Such an adorable card!
The ornament for the tag was brilliant girl! Love that image too!
I love this card. I haven’t seen a rivet for so long! The colors and layout are beautiful.
Great use of the DSP … adorable card! I’m with you, love a stamp that you can punch out.
Your work is just beautiful – I love all of your creations – you are a real inspiration.
Cute card! I love the dangling ornament.
