Holiday Card Series 2025 #3


Hey friends, today I'm bringing you Day #3 of my 2025 Holiday Card Series , and this one is a two-fer! I'm creating TWO cards featuring the adorable new Mama Elephant Candy Cane Lane stamp set. This one was just too cute to color just once. I had such a blast bringing these images to life with my Copic markers, then trimmed them out with the matching dies.


For this card I went with a portrait orientation, which gave me a little less room for images, but plenty of space for a nice, big, bold sentiment from Very Merry Sentiments. Sometimes a bold greeting is just the thing to make your card really stand out. I did a simple watercolor wash background with Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide Ink and added a bright red Flirty Scallop Frame to set it off.


The second card uses all the same supplies (minus the sentiment set), but this time I flipped it in the landscape orientation so I could really fill it up with as many of these adorable mice as I could fit. I think it turned out equally as cute. To see how they both came together, click the video thumbnail below, or find it HERE on my YouTube channel, Christy Gets Crafty. Thanks so much for watching!

Nocturne Rainbow Card - Lawn Fawnatics #207


Hey friends, it's time for another Lawn Fawnatics Challenge and this one is all about Rainbows! I love creating rainbow-colored cards, and who says that rainbows are just for Spring? Fall is full of rainbows, too! That's the direction I decided to go in for this card, pulling together images from so many of my favorite Autumn stamp sets, including the Pick of the Patch Add-onSpring Basket Add-on: FallHalloween MiceJump for JoyLet's Go NutsPorcu-pine for YouHappy HarvestYou Autumn Know, and You Are Sublime.


That's right, I used NINE stamp sets on ONE single card! But I love a scene that is chock full of images. It gives you so much to look at! All of these images were stamped in Jet Black Ink, colored with Copic markers, and trimmed out with their matching dies.


For the background, I trimmed down a panel of Bristol with the Outside In Stitched Rectangle Stackables and blended on Distress Oxide Inks. I started with Peacock Feathers in the center, then worked out to Chipped Sapphire, and finally Black Soot on the edges. I added some splatter, and once that was dry, arranged my images with a combination of liquid glue and foam tape. And of course, I had to finish it all off with some Stardust Stickles.

Cozy Kitty Cat Card - Lawn Fawnatics #206


Hey friends, it's time for another Lawn Fawnatics Challenge and this one shares a theme with of my favorite movie of all time: There's No Place Like Home! I decided to create a cozy indoor scene for the new Cozy Cats, combining them with images from Purrfectly WickedMeow You Doin'?Window Scene Winter, and the Porcu-pine for You Add-on. I colored all the images with Copic markers and trimmed them out with the matching dies.


For the background, I cut down a piece of striped patterned paper from the All the Sparkles 6x6 pad with the largest of the Small Stitched Rectangle Stackables for my wallpaper and added a Light Brown Woodgrain Cardstock floor with a strip of white cardstock for the baseboard. I popped this over another piece of patterned paper from the same pad, which I trimmed down with the largest Large Stitched Rectangle Stackable.


Once the card base was assembled, I adhered my images with liquid glue. I added an Everyday Sentiment Banner stamped in Peachy Keen Ink down at the bottom, and finished up this card with a little Stardust Stickles for a bit of sparkle and shine.
