Kitsch Deer

 

Avery elle - Kitch Christmas
Doodlebug - North Pole 


Hi Friends, 

Welcome to day 8 and the last day of the Build Your Stash Holiday Card Hop!  Today I am inking up these cute deer. When I first saw them, I had to have them. I popped the one in front on foam. They are so adorable! 

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog, I had so much fun this week. Thank  you to Crystal for putting this blog hop together so we could all play and not only build our stash, but use the images in our stash. This was the perfect opportunity.

Peas on Earth

 

The Ink Blot Shop - Peas on Earth


Hi Friends, 

Day 6 of the BYSHC Hop!  OMGosh I love this stamp set! I first saw it years ago and when I went to buy it, it had sold out. Fast forward to today, I finally did buy it and I am just now inking it up. Those little peas are so adorable with their little hats! I popped them up on foam but wouldn't it be great if they made action wobblers small enough for these tiny images? lol. 

Thank you for stopping by my blog!

I Thought it was Candy!

 

The Rubber Cafe - Santa's Workshop
Doodlbug - Here Comes Santa Clause


Hi Friends,

Welcom to day 5 of the BYSHC Hop. I hope you are all having a great time hopping along seeing everyone's Holiday cards. 

For today's card, I am inking up this cute elf from Santa's Workshop set from The Rubber Cafe. I purchased this stamp set years ago at a stamp expo. In one of my re-organization sessions, I misplaced it. That December I had an idea and wanted to use this image. I looked high and low and could not find it anywhere. I finally found it last year and put it in it's rightful place. So I am finally inking it up, although I can't remember what idea it was that I had, lol. It may come to me though and then you better believe I will get it out again. 

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.

Sweetest Season

 

Sweetest Time - Stampin Up
Sweetest Border Dies - Stampin up


Hi Friends,

Welcome to day 4 of the BYSHC Hop. Today I am using a cute quick and simple stamp and die combo from Stampin Up. I love these candy cane images. I had to run this die through my big shot a few times to get them to cut completely but I find that is the case with a lot of intricit dies. I saw a video by Narelle and decided to make one for myself. Interesting enough, her sentiment was one stamp, mine came with individual words.....thank God for my Misti! I'm not sure I could have managed that one without it, lol. 

Thank you for stopping by my blog!

Monster Christmas

 

Demani Designs - Friendly Monster Christmas
Doodlebug - North Pole


Hi Friends,

Welcome to day 3 of the BYSHC Hop! I love these little Demani Monsters! Another Christmas stamp I have never inked up! yeah! I'm so happy to finally be inking these unused stamps. I think I buy them thinking I will use them but when it comes time to make mass quanities of Christmas stamps, I usually buy a stamp set with dies that will go quickly. Now I can take my time and send different ones this year. I think next time I will use embossing fluff for the hats and pom poms. 

Thank you for stopping by my blog.

Christmas in the Making

 

Stampin Up - Chrismas in the Making
S.U. Wonderful Wreath Dies
Carte Bella - Santa's Workshop



Hi Friends,

Welcome to day 2 of the BYSHC Hop. I love this cute little image, retro is so cute!  This is the first time I have inked her up! Yeah! I think this set might be retired now. I have too many sets I  haven't inked up yet, but oh when I need them, I gotta have them, lol. I think Stampin Up had a bow and die set last winter but for whatever reason, I didn't buy that one. Now I am on the hunt for a good bow stamp set with matchy dies. 

Thank you so much for stopping by my blog!

Hipster Santa

 

CC Designs - Hipster Santa
Unity - Slowly Turning Classic


Hi Friends,

Welcome to the Spring into Christmas 2021 Hop. Crystal from [Build Your Stash Holiday Card] BYSHC started a facebook group to encourage everyone to make holiday cards all year around and not get stuck in December frantically making cards. now we have a Spring Blog Hop, so exciting! 

Today's card is a case of a card I saw one of the CC designers make with this Hipster Santa

Rosemary used designer paper for her background, but I decided to buy and ink up this fabulous classic truck stamp from Unity. I got on a truck stamp buying frenzy and ended up buying four because I was not sure which one would work the best, lol.  There will be another Christmas Truck card later this week, lol. I just love this Hipster Santa. He reminds me of some loggers I met in Oregon when I was a kid. 

I hope you enjoy the Blog Hop! Thank you for stopping by my blog.
