Chari starts the holiday celebrations with an adorable card featuring the Big Hugs Pop-Up bear! You can watch as she makes this “beary” merry card below or click HERE to watch at our YouTube channel.
Thank you so much for watching!
Chari’s holiday card is so “beary” cute! It features that charming Big Hugs Pop-Up bear with a merry greeting spelled out in Charlie’s ABCs.
And Chari added special details in wool felt! The Woodland Critter Huggers Winter Add-On Santa hat and a scarf look so special in felt! In the background Chari used Let it Shine Holiday Plaids and there’s pretty greenery from Pinecone and Leaves Border.
Grace created a card that is just so delightful! This oval-shaped card would also be perfect as a Christmas tree ornament. She layered a Stitched Scalloped Oval with a Small Stitched Oval to frame an adorable Build-A-Dog! She tucked the little dog in a Christmas Stocking with sparkly gold bells, so sweet!
Then Grace included more holiday details topping the dog’s head with an elf hat from Build-A-Critter Christmas Accessories. And I love the glittery pine needles from Pinecone and Leaves Border and the Snowflake Confetti behind a layer of vellum!
Melissa‘s Gingerbread House is so cute and cozy in a snow-covered Winter Forest Backdrop: Portrait. She added lots of detail with Let it Shine Holiday Plaids, a red sparkle Stitched Rectangle Frame and a Stitched Snowflake Backdrop!
With bright red and green, Audrey‘s A Mice Christmas card sends very merry wishes! She added the greeting with Giant Be Merry and Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Winter before scattering some Mini Snowflakes.
How beautiful is this card with Build-A-Dog and Build-An-Igloo! Jennifer created a snowy winter wonderland with sparkly Pixie Dust cardstock, Snowflakes Stencil and Giant Season’s Greetings! And that adorable beanie on the dog is the perfect addition.
Megan filled her design with a patchwork of holiday patterned papers. Then she created a fun collage with A Mice Christmas, Merry Mice and cute and punny sentiments! She’s definitely on the “mice” list!
Lynnette created a festive mason jar shaker card to send sweet Christmas wishes! She filled the Build-A-Drink Mason Jar with Tiny Treasures Christmas Mints Clay Pieces. Then she added a bright red topper from Build-A-Drink Mason Jar Jam and Honey Add-On stamping a Little Snow Globe Add-On sentiment on the label.
Karin created a clever grid pattern design featuring A Mice Christmas and Charlie’s ABCs. I love how she spelled out “ho ho ho” in gold metallic cardstock.
Latisha also combined A Mice Christmas with Charlie’s ABCs to make a merry design! She layered a Postage Rectangle Stackable with a Stitched Scalloped Circle Frame then layered everything on a Let it Shine Holiday Plaids covered card.
I love how Melissa used the greenery and bird from Winter Forest Backdrop: Portrait to accent the Giant Be Merry greeting! Her card is so lovely in its simplicity with Let it Shine Holiday Plaids adding shiny gold detail.
June‘s interactive card is filled with so much holiday fun! She created a fireplace with the Magic Picture Changer with the campfire from Build-A-Campsite and a window valance from Window Frame on the mantel. The little A Mice Christmas, Merry Mice and Christmas Before ‘n Afters critters have hung their stockings in preparation for the holiday!
When the tab is pulled the picture changes and now the empty stocking is filled with a smiling mouse from A Mice Christmas! Such a fun way to send Christmas wishes from Pawsitive Christmas.
I just love how Elise created this fun holiday card! She used Stripes ‘n Sprinkles Autumn paper for the background, then she die-cut her sentiment using Charlie’s ABCs. She filled in around the greeting with trees from Merry Mice and Yeti or Not before adding some Snowflake Confetti to finish her cheerful design.
