This week at Stamp Simply Clear Stamps, we're sharing Christmas cards to help get you all in the Christmas spirit (since it's just a few short months away). Stamp Simply has so many great Christmas stamps and, in fact, stamps for every occasion. These beautiful scriptures, sentiments, images and the dies to match will capture your eye and bring you so many great opportunities for card-making. Stamp Simply has stamps that truly do make it "simple" to create a lovely card.
This card uses black cardstock and some patterned papers from Carta Bella. There are some lovely Carta Bella 6x6 Paper Pads at Stamp Simply. This card combines two of the patterned papers from the Carta Bella Home for Christmas 6x6 Paper Pad and also uses three of the chipboard banners from this same Carta Bella line (that I just happened to have in my stash). I used three of the words in the Christmas Blessings Stamp Set to stamp the words (Noel, Love and Hope) onto the chipboard banners.
I used the Floral Cluster: Winter Poinsettia Stamp Set to stamp the gorgeous poinsettia cluster. I colored it using my Copics and cut it out using the coordinating Floral Cluster & Sprigs Dies. I stamped the cardinal (bird) using God Will Take Care of You Stamp Set, and he is sitting in the foliage I cut using the Floral Cluster & Sprigs Dies which I also colored with my Copics. This lovely cluster die cuts all four of the Floral Cluster Stamps AND the foliage is super awesome.
I ran a length of Black & White Gingham Ribbon across my card and tied a pretty bow using it. I did add some tiny yellow floral prills to the center of the poinsettia for added texture. Stamp Simply truly has amazing stamps that you will love. Be sure to do some shopping at Stamp Simply and to check out all the inspiration on the Stamp Simply Blog. Thanks again for visiting me.
I'm playing along here:
