Chari‘s Christmas card combines a gorgeous, stenciled background with our new Christmas Stocking! You can watch the video below or click HERE to watch at our YouTube channel.

Thank you so much for watching!

Chari stenciled the beautiful Poinsettia Background then layered the Christmas Stocking on top. She stenciled the Cozy Sweater on the stocking and filled it with Holly Leaves Border greenery and berries, so pretty!

Audrey‘s Christmas card is so colorful and fun! She stenciled the String of Lights on the All the Sparkles background before adding the sparkly silver Giant Be Merry. And of course, the cute Winter Bird adds a bit of whimsy!

Yainea created an interactive card with Knock Knock, Who’s There! Her happy holiday scene features Ho-Ho-Holidays, Village Hillside Border and the Knock Knock Who’s There Tree Add-On!

Then the cute little Holiday Helpers elf pops out with the “nice list” when you open the door!

Megan created a card that is so cute by combining Simply Celebrate Santa and Simply Celebrate Hangouts! Her beautifully shaded Giant Be Merry is the perfect greeting!

Lynnette created a charming background for the Caroling Mice using Village Hillside Border and All the Sparkle paper! Then she added the die-cut sentiment from All the Santa Hats!

Marine‘s Build-A-Fox card is so much fun! She dressed the foxes in Santa hats from Build-A-Critter Christmas Accessories and Winter Accessories scarves. Then she gold embossed the Big Messages: Christmas greeting and framed it all with the Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Frame. She added pretty detail with Christmas Garland and a Cute Candy Cane bow.

I love how Latisha combined Giant Be Merry with the coordinating die from Big Messages: Christmas! It’s the perfect layer in bright red! Then she added Christmas Garland and a Stitched Scalloped Rectangle Frame in pretty Candy Cane Lane striped paper!

Elise created a simply delightful holiday card with a Cozy Sweater stenciled background and Giant Be Merry! A few scattered sequins add just the right amount of sparkle!

Melissa‘s Christmas card design is so pretty in shades of teal! She white embossed a Big Messages: Christmas greeting on a Peacock coordinating die cut. Then she created a fun background with Snowflakes Stencil and Clear Stencil Paste on white cardstock. Once the paste dried, she added a wash of watercolor and gold splatters.

Grace created adorable tags to dress up her gift packages using Christmas Stocking, Favorite Flannel Fall papers and colorful cardstock.

She added Chunky Glitter for lots of sparkle, then tied on a Tiny Tag. On the tag she stamped a greeting from Say What Christmas Critters!

And then Grace tucked some colorful lollipops through the slit in the top of the stockings making them even more fun!

Oh, Deer! It’s Santa’s Reindeer in a Fun Slimline Scene Card by Mimi

Make sure to join us for our next Create with Us LIVE mini class coming up in just two days! Jenn and I will create two adorable cards with Cheesy Christmas and chat about all things cardmaking! Check out the Create with Us page to get all the details to craft along with us! The fun starts at 4PM Pacific Time TODAY! Click HERE.

Mimi created a super clever holiday card featuring Santa and reindeer from Simply Celebrate Santa! Her slimline card also features Build-A-Cabin as a reindeer barn!

This fun scene shows Santa and his reindeer from Simply Celebrate Santa and Simply Celebrate Winter Critters in the barn, ready for the big night! Mimi used Over the Mountain Borders for the background and added some snow from Winter Birds.

In this barn, made with Build-A-Cabin, Mimi used two reindeer and the sleigh from Over the Mountain Borders. She filled the sleigh with packages from Tiny Birthday Friends. Then she added garland from Shadow Box Card Fireplace Add-On and a wreath and red bow from Build-A-House Christmas Add-On.

For the other barn, Mimi used the shutters from Build-A-Barn for the stalls, with more of the festive red bows. She gave the Build-A-Cabin “barns” texture by using Woodgrain cardstock in light brown.

In between the barn are two more reindeer, standing at the Little Farm Fence Border. Since these reindeer don’t have legs, Mimi got clever and used the Dad + Me moose feet to add hooves for the reindeer. I love how she spelled out “oh, deer” with Henry’s ABCs. It’s such a fun greeting for this charming card!

This card is so cute and totally clever! Thank you so much for sharing with us today, Mimi!

Tiny Gift Box Owl and Penguin Add-On

Elena gave her little owl treat box so much personality using ink blending and coloring with markers! She even added cute details to owl’s head. So adorable!

Elena inked another Tiny Gift Box, this time to create a cute penguin! Again, she added the cutest details!

Grace made a fun pair of penguins for a special birthday card! She cleverly used the Build-a-Gumball Machine to make a fishbowl.

Then she added fun party details with Outside In Stitched Balloons, cute party hats from Stitched Cupcake and a punny greeting with Henry’s ABCs and Offset Sayings: Birthday.

Marine‘s blue owl is so brilliant! She created a fun scene for this cutie by turning the Birch Trees dies sideways as branches. And then she filled the limbs with colorful leaves all on a neutral Falling Leaves background. She found a cute sentiment in the So Owlsome set, white embossing it on a vellum speech bubble from Say What? Spring Critters.

Mindy‘s cute penguin looks so cute surrounded by frosty Candy Cane Lane papers! The Reverse Stitched Scalloped Circle Window makes a perfect frame too!

I love how the little owl pops up over the colorful stack of Book Collection books on Grace‘s thank you card.

And to make this card even more special, our little owl shows up again on the Swivel Surprise inside!

Simply Celebrate Santa

Audrey‘s Christmas gift tags are so adorable with Simply Celebrate Santa! She combined the cute Santa and critter border with Giant Feliz Navidad and Mini Snowflakes.

Marine paired Simply Celebrate Santa with more little reindeer from Simply Celebrate Winter Critters. Her holly, jolly sentiment from Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Winter combined with Scripty Merry and the new Scripty Merry Outline Add-On.

Elise took the little border and cut it into squares to create a clever grid design. She used the same combination of Scripty Merry and Henry’s Build-A-Sentiment: Winter to create a special greeting!

Mindy‘s beautifully simple design shows how well Simply Celebrate Santa pairs with Simply Celebrate Winter!

How cute is Megan‘s Rooftop Border scene! The reindeer and Santa are ready to deliver presents with the help of Ho-Ho-Holidays and Holiday Helpers!

Latisha‘s design frames Santa and the reindeer with a Winter Wonderland Window and uses Let it Shine Starry Skies petite paper in the background.

Caly created a fun interactive Ta-Da! Diorama! holiday card featuring the cute reindeer and Santa! She used Brick Stencil to create a rooftop scene!
