😸😸Happy Thursday😸😸

Hello, I pray that all is well with you, and you are being blessed😊. I conduct a free Facebook Live Event every Wednesday at 7:00pm central time. My goal is to post the video, measurements and all the information about the Facebook Live Event on Thursday.

The cards that I am showing you today is made with the “Saint Nicholas” Bundle. As you know, I like cute things. 😸 The Saint Nicholas stamps have a traditional vintage look, so I normally would not buy the set. But I am trying to expand my crafting style and I bought the set. Hope you will like the project today.😊

The Saint Nicholas Bundle includes the Saint Nicholas Stamp Set and the Saint Nicholas Dies. Also available in French.

The Saint Nicholas Stamp Set has two styles of Santa and completes the scene with a pedestal letterbox, a candy cane, a bag of gifts, a gingerbread cookie, or a glass of wassail. The open line-art images are designed for coloring so you can choose your own color scheme. Use Stampin’ Write Markers, Stampin’ Blends, or Classic Stampin’ Ink with coloring tools to get the look you want. Finish your cards with a sentiment of love and joy. If you love vintage Christmas cards, you can now make your own!

The die set is brimming with this and that to create cozy indoor or outdoor scenes. Build an indoor setting with a fireplace and hearth, complete with a crackling fire and a string of Christmas stockings waiting to be filled. For an outdoor setting, cut a chimney and layer with die-cut bricks in a coordinating color and an old-fashioned pedestal letterbox. Add a die-cut Santa to either scene and your holiday cards are ready to wow!

The color scheme and tree images make the A Walk in the Forest a natural fit for winter crafting. One side of the paper has the Christmas theme, such as Christmas trees, pinecones, holly berries, and snowflakes. The other side of the paper is the complementary colors and patterns that make this paper good for creating the projects for all occasions.

I used this stripe paper for today’s project.

I added the classic look of brick to the card with the Exposed Brick 3D Embossing Folder. This folder creates playful cutout elements with the textured look and feel of brick, this embossing folder can make it happen—and with minimal effort. I also used the Crumb Cake Ink to highlight the textured so you can see it better on the card.

Here are the pictures for the card from different angles.
