Peace on Earth Release Blog Hop

Hi there! Today I’m joining Simon Says Stamp for their Peace on Earth Blog Hop! You can check out the amazing new release HERE!

SSS-Holiday Sprigs, Joyous Christmas

Both of my projects feature the Holiday Sprigs Stamp, Die & Stencil Set. I absolutely love having a coordinating stencil to color in the images. For these sprigs I used Celery & Limelicious ink.

SSS-Holiday Sprigs, Joyous Christmas

For the sentiment on the card above I used the Joyous Christmas word die with vellum & Matte Gold. For embellishments I used Glacier Jewels.

SSS-Holiday Sprigs, CZ Merry & Bright

For this card I used the CZ Merry & Bright word die with Lipstick Red & White Glitter Cardstock. I embellished with a rainbow assortment of crystals. Below is a video showing how I created these holiday cards.

Make sure and follow along to see more amazing inspiration! Thanks so much for stopping by!

    When you lie down at night, and you consider whether you could have popped it up on foam …. You crack me up!! I ended up ordering this b/c now that you have ordered it, it will likely sell right out. And I have had my eye on it, so………. now I got it. And I got a free Pawsitively Paw tool. Yay!
    Enjoy your weekend!

    Love your cards. Appreciate the white (pearl?) jewels in the Joyous Christmas card… When I first saw the stamp of leaves and berries, I thought of white berries against the green.

    Allowed if I want to go to the party looking refined and colorful. The stencil matching the sprigs stamp set is GENIUS! Foliage is, in my opinion so hard to variegate so softly like that and thanks for the die… fussy cutting would be out of the question. Shes so so pretty. . Be.u.ti.ful cards! Enjoyed this!
