Happy Wednesday! Before I get to my card for today, just a quick reminder that our Bellarific Black Friday sale is currently on, and you can enjoy a fantastic 25% off throughout our store! It’s a great time to stock up on stamps and get some crossed off those wishlists.
On to the inspiration! I don’t have a new video for you today, but I have coloured the stamps on today’s card before and will add the previous videos at the end of this post so you can watch those for more colouring inspiration.
Both the Tiny Townie stamp and the Backdrop stamp I’ve used are firm favourites of mine. The Backdrop stamp in particular is so useful for scenes at this time of year, which you can see from the videos below!

Today we have another wonderful card from our guest designer Sue Hastead!
I love that Sue used just one of the mice from our Christmas Mice Decorating the Tree stamp, and placed him in a wonderful festive scene! The backdrop stamp Sue used is one of my favourites.
If you love the stamps Sue used, now is a great time to grab them, as our Black Friday Sale is currently on with 25% off STOREWIDE!
Happy crafting!

The storybook house stamps in our Kristin Farnsworth collection have a special place in my heart. As a reader, they just give me all of the warm and cosy feels. The Christmas one especially. It will soon be time to break out my copy of A Christmas Carol for a pre-Christmas read, along with some other old favourites, and of course I’ll be watching my favourite movie and TV adaptations. Do you have a favourite Christmas story?
You can watch me colour this stamp in the video below. If you enjoy watching please do like the video and subscribe over on my YouTube channel.
That’s it for today! I’ll be back tomorrow with another Spotlight Tuesday for you.
MWAH!

Hello, hello!
Amy here with a sweet Christmas card that takes me back to my crafting roots for this week’s Scenic Saturday. This joyful Lunettes Christmas Girl surrounded by all of her gifts, was stamped at a fun angle to make it look like she is popping into a holiday selfie. To help me come up with the perfect Christmas color palette for her, I decided to revisit my long neglected stash of pattern paper pads and let them help guide my choice of Copic markers.
Back in the day I started out as a scrapbooker and during that time I collected a lot of pretty pattern papers. When I transitioned over to stamping and card making I still relied heavily on those papers to create the design that housed the character stamps that I colored and fussy cut out. As my style evolved, I found myself using less and less papers and coloring entire backgrounds instead. Still, I think that using those papers as color palette inspiration while I was learning to color with my Copic markers was really beneficial in building my confidence in creating new color blends. So here I am letting this pretty Christmas stripe paper dictate all of the colors used on Lunettes Christmas Girl and her gifts, which creates a nice balance with the paper itself at the bottom of the card. The open space at the top of the card was the perfect place to add this large sentiment from the Festive Gnome Sentiment set stamped in red ink to coordinate back to the paper and the little holly embellishment that I added as a festive finishing touch to this sweet card.
Stay crafty my friends!
