Mrs Santa Claus

Hi everyone! I hope you've all had a lovely week and have a great weekend planned no matter what you're doing.

Today I'm sharing an easel card I made using the Santa's Workshop Specialty DSP. I love all of the designs in this pack, they are just so cute!

Santa's Workshop Specialty Designer Series Paper

There is a Christmas song that I absolutely love, it's called Mrs Santa Claus by Nat King Cole. My card is inspired by this song.


Isn't she just the sweetest Mrs Claus?!
Here she is, surrounded by candy canes and wishing that you get everything on your Christmas list and more! I die-cut her directly from the paper as well as the presents using the coordinating framelits. You can of course stamp her using the 'Signs of Santa' stamp set and colour her in with your markers or blends, but as this card was for a class, it was simpler and easier to just die-cut the image straight from the DSP.

Have you noticed the glow behind the circle?
I heat embossed the sentiment in silver onto some vellum to allow for a battery operated tea-light to shine through.


It's such a simple little card design, and one that I think the little ones would enjoy, and the "little ones" at heart as well!


Sadly, this entire suite of gorgeous products is retiring. So, if you absolutely love it as much as I do, and have to have it, or more if you already have it, you only have until January 2nd or until supplies last to get it.

You know the saying 'Behind every great man, there is a great woman'?
Well I definitely think this is the case with Santa and Mrs Claus!

Thanks for stopping by.

I'll be back soon to share more projects with you.

Until next time,
stay happy & stay crafty! 😘

Heart of Christmas - Week 11


Hi everyone, tonight the Art with Heart team are sharing Week 11 projects for the Heart of Christmas blog hop.
I hope our festive creations are helping to inspire your Christmas crafting.

Tonight I have a simple but sweet card to show you.


I found yet another square card layout on Youtube. I'm really loving these little square cards so much so, that I've set myself a personal challenge. For the remaining weeks of our Heart of Christmas hop, I'm going to make the same size card to see how many different looks I can get. It's going to be fun and I hope you'll enjoy seeing what I come up with each week.

When I said this was a simple card, I really meant simple. There's no stamping, just some die-cutting and embossing. I felt it didn't need a sentiment - reason one is it's definitely a Christmas card and reason two, I couldn't find one I was happy with and where to place it. Maybe you could suggest something for me.

I die-cut Santa with his coordinating framelit from the Santa's Workshop Specialty DSP and with my light Pool Party Stampin' Blend marker, I traced his shape before I stuck him down. It really makes him pop off the stitched square. Instead of dimensionals, I added glue dots to pop him up. This gives you a subtle lift without the height you would normally get if using dimensionals.


I used the Swirls & Curls TIEF, but before I ran it through the Big Shot I spritzed the cardstock with some Isocol and Frost White Shimmer Paint. Unfortunately the photo didn't pick this up, but it has this soft and subtle sparkle on it that is so pretty. I kept the inside simple as well by adding a narrow strip of the scalloped Poppy Parade edge with flocked dots from the Santa's Workshop DSP. You can just see this in the first photo.

Well, that's it from me. To see what the rest of the team have created tonight, just use Claire's blog link below.

Heart of Christmas Week 7



Hello stamping friends, welcome to Week 7 of the Heart of Christmas with the Art with Heart team.


The gorgeous Poppy Parade was the colour I chose for my Christmas card this week, and that's because I have used the Santa's Workshop Specialty DSP. This lovely shade of red is a coordinating colour for the fun and whimsical designs, however for tonight's card I chose one of the reverse patterns.
Using my large letter framelits, I cut out the letters to make up the word Merry, and stuck these onto a panel of whisper white that I embossed with the Swirls & Curls TIEF. On the top and bottom of this panel I stuck down a narrow strip of gold glimmer paper, (this is the retired one, but we have new glimmer paper in the annual catalogue). The three snowflake shapes are die-cut from the coordinating framelits in the Signs of Santa bundle. What's difficult to see in the photo is the embossing on the card front, true to its name, I embossed it with the Subtle Dynamic TIEF.
Christmas was heat embossed with black embossing powder and die-cut with the banner die from the Petals and More thinlits dies. The black rhinestones are retired, but you could colour our clear ones with a black sharpie. In the centre of the middle 'R' I added a gold faceted gem.


In this photo above, you can see a little more of the texture you get from the subtle embossing folder and the shine from the black heat embossing. The Christmas sentiment is from the Peaceful Poinsettia stamp set. The stamp itself says Christmas Wishes, but I just masked off the word wishes before inking with my versamark.


Thanks for stopping by tonight. Join us again next week as we share our Week 8 projects with you.

Here's Claire's link to check out what she and the other girls have created for tonight's Heart of Christmas.
