Hello lovely Crafty friends,

Today’s post is for the Be Inspired Design Team. Each month will have a different theme and this month’s theme is to pick a Christmas Characters.
I picked one character GINGERBREAD and the REINDEER.
I like to play along using the Ephemera Pack, they are so much fun to play along with, Which is a great way to create straightforward and Quick cards.
I love the adorable Christmas characters GINGERBREAD and The REINDEER DAYS DSP.
GINGERBREAD are Fun, edible characters associated with Christmas baking traditions.
I am looking forward to seeing what the Design Team has created. 

Here is my card 

JOYFUL IMAGES MIX & MATCH SPECIALTY EPHEMERA PACK

I made another version using this same layout but with different colour choices.

Stampin' Up! Ephemera Pack - Maheswari Rajaguru

Measurements:

  • Base card – Garden Green – 10.5cm x 29.7cm scored@14.9cm (4 1/4″ x 11″Scored @ 5 1/2″)
  • Layer 1 Garden Green: 9.7cm x 14.1cm (embossed) (4″ X 5 1/4″)
  • Basic White Inside -10cm x 14.4cm (4″ X 5 1/4″)
  • Stamp the sentiment from the Garden Green.
  • Scrap pieces of PRETTY PEACOCK for the inside of the card.
  • I used a 2″ Circle punch on Pretty Peacock Cardstock, sponged it using Pretty Peacock Ink, and then attached it to the centre of the Basic White Cardstock using glue.

Don’t forget to decorate the inside of the card using some scrap pieces of the cardstock.

Hello Crafty Friends, Today's hop is for the Hop Hello Crafty Friends,

Today's hop is for the Hop Abroad August 2026 Insta Hop, and this month's theme is "Least Used Colours."
I chose Flirty Flamingo because it's one of those colours I rarely reach for but I had so much fun creating with it! I paired it with the beautiful July Product of the Month - Begonia Belle stamp set, and I absolutely love how this card turned out.

Check out the amazing projects created by the rest of the design team!

This month's theme is to Creating Backgrounds.
I started with a Balmy Blue card base and created a soft watercolored background. Once the watercolour was completely dry, I stamped the images in Black ink over the top, creating a beautiful contrast that really makes the design stand out.

Hello crafty friends! Who says we have to wait un Hello crafty friends!

Who says we have to wait until December to start creating Christmas cards? I absolutely love celebrating Christmas in July, and today I’m sharing the festive cards created with the beautiful Festive Cheer Bundle. 

This bundle is such a joy to work with! We did a Free Christmas in July class for the Stamping Lounge members yesterday.
