Right down to the wire but I’m managing to still share a Christmas card in July and my first sneak peek created using products from the Stampin’ Up! Holiday Catalog. The holiday catalog begins Sept. 1.
STAMPIN’ PRETTY TIPS:
- I love the individual elements of the Your Presents stamp set (available Sept. 1) for a holiday, birthday or Christmas card.
- You can build ornaments, create gift packages and even play with patterns and the “kiss” technique! I stamped the stripe in two directions to create the plaid.
- Grab a Sharpie! I used a red Sharpie to color one of the Stampin’ Up! White Perfect Accents. It really pops on the Cucumber Crush gift!
- I created a custom envelope for my note card (5″ x 3 1/2″) using the Stampin’ Up! In Colors Envelope Paper (one of My Favorite Things) and the Envelope Punch Board. Watch my video tutorial using the Envelope Paper and Envelope Punch Board.
- What holiday or Christmas card doesn’t come to life with a little bling? I added a strip of Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer Paper for sparkle!

So many possibilities, Carol. Even using the repeat patterns for a border or envelope will be divine!
Very pretty card – loved that class and the kissing technique that we tend to forget about. Thank you for sharing your card…yes, can be used for bday or other gifty cards!
I agree, Diane. It will be the foundation of many birthday and holiday cards!
What a sweet and simple Christmas card! I love it…guess that’s a set I’ll have to order! Your post “sold it!”

This stamp set was not on my list of must haves, but it is now! Mary, you are a perfected stampin’ enabler and I’m so happy you are! Such a great, mailable Christmas card!!
I love being an enabler . . . especially in this hobby we are all nutso about!
Cute, cute, cute!!! Can’t wait to get my inky little hands on this stamp set! Wouldn’t have put it on my wish list till I saw your post today Mary! Thanks for your post!!!!
I think it’s a winner, Susan. All the building blocks of cute gifts as well as a Christmas ornament!
Thanks for your kind comments. This holiday catty is a winner! Tons of stamps for all styles and lots of dies and discounted bundles (buy coordinating products together and save).
With my holiday pre-order arriving today, I want to tease you with a little bit. I’ll probably focus on Halloween first . . .
Really? I can’t even think Christmas yet!
I LOVE how you put this all together! I can’t wait to see the holiday catalog and get started with my Christmas cards!
Love the card, Mary. Simple and clean.
Wonderful card, Mary! Love this stamp set too. It’s going on my wish list right now. Thanks for the inspiration.
Thanks, Frenchie. The holiday catalog has me so excited for fall and the winter holidays!
Ooooo, MsMary, that’s a beauty of a card , love that new stamp set, on my list !!!
Tfs,
Hugs Frenchie, can’t wait for the Pre order list, do u know when it will be out ??
:))
Thanks for your sweet sentiments! I’m going to love this set!
I can’t claim credit for the clever use of the stripe stamp to make a plaid. It was a tip from a make and take at Convention. I loved it!
I’m in LOVE with this set! How fabulous you used a red sharpie marker to color in your Stampin’ Up! White Perfect Accents. GREAT WOW FACTOR for this card.
Very cute little Christmas presents, love the vivid colors and the way you created a whole new pattern by double stamping the stripped image, very clever Mary.
Hi Mary, I loved how you used this stamp set. I was looking for one stamp, only to read you double-stamped it. So great. I love the strip of glimmer paper too. Just enough.
