Fawny Holiday Video
Samantha closes out the Fawny Holiday Week videos with a beautiful Winter Birds design on a Platform Pop-Up! You can watch her video tutorial below or click HERE to watch at our YouTube channel.
Thank you so much for watching! We loved sharing all the holiday video tutorials with you!
Samantha got so creative to use the Platform Pop-Up Cloud Inserts to create the treetops! She stamped the Platform Pop-Up with Woodgrain Backdrops to look like the tree trunk. Then she dabbed on some white paint to look like snow on the tree, so perfect for the cute Winter Birds!
More Design Team Inspiration
Franci made a cute holiday design with a simple inked background. Then she filled the card with all the cuteness of Cheesy Christmas!
How adorable are these pink peppermint candies?! Jenn‘s pretty in pink holiday card features Peppermint Border with Peppermint Stripes Stencils. And the Ugly and Bright bear in his Christmas sweater adds so much charm!
Jenn added special touches with gold sparkle cardstock and of course, lots of glitter! There’s even more shine in the greeting with Winter Big Scripty Words Hot Foil Plates!
Karin‘s lovely card has a rustic feel with the Woodgrain cardstock background. She cut String of Lights Backdrop from Vanilla Malt cardstock. She used gold metallic watercolor paint to highlight the light bulbs and it’s such a great idea! Then she added cute birds from Happy Couples and a greeting from Merry Mice!
So much cleverness with Tammy‘s Coffee Cup Gift Card Holders! She turned them into the cutest snowmen with the help of scarves from Woodland Critter Huggers Winter Add-On and a turkey feather turned carrot nose!
I love that the coffee cup lid looks like a top hat for the snowmen! It’s the perfect place for a bit of holly and berries, also from Woodland Critter Huggers Winter Add-On. Tammy finished the look with various sizes of black circles for the eyes, mouth and buttons.

After seeing the cup turned into snowman and I have the huggers & turkey carrot nose dies I’ll be making some of those. I made round flat ornaments that I stamped, die cut, added gold foil top pieces and Calligraphy wrote on the center names to who I’m gifting.
From my daughters kindergarten-days; a little Santa. an’t describe it as I don’t know the name of the materials in English. Very small, very simple, very loved!
I love displaying the handmade cards I receive each year!
A wreath for my front door.
I get my daughters an ornament each year to add to their own collection. The ornament is something to signify their previous year. My younger daughter actually prefers that I make her ornaments.
