NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS STAMPED CARDS | with Karen

I love making homemade Christmas cards. No, really - I do! I may not like the fact that I usually leave them to the last minute and feel the crunch of getting them done on time, but making Christmas cards is my jam! And this year, the fun has started with weeks to spare (yes, I know some of you start in July, but this is early for this last-minute crafter). And being able to use the new Christmas collection from Doodlebug called Night Before Christmas has reminded me why I really love this time of the crafty 
year!

 

Because it really doesn't get cuter than this collection! And the fact that I have an excuse to craft with it every days for the next few weeks while I get my cards done is a great reason to smile!

   

 For this first set of cards, I was actually inspired by the waving Santa and little dude! While they are totally cute just standing there and smiling, it also made me wonder what they would look like if I did some masking and made it look like they were holding something. And there are so many little accessory stamps in this collection that it could work with - like presents and stars and even hearts (oh, and the reindeer of course). So I gave it a go! At the end of the day, I am not sure which one is my favourite, but I love the idea that I could mix and match some more and have totally unique stamp designs for every card I send out this year.

   

 Okay wait. Don't tell Santa, but I think this little cutie with the star is my favourite. Sorry Santa!

 

So if you are a last minute Christmas crafter like I am, this collection will have you covered! I guess that puts Doodlebug on the "nice" list, doesn't it? Not that there was ever a question...

Thanks for stopping by!

  2. Absolutely adorable!! Just 1 question though...when will the rest of us be able to purchase this wonderful Night Before Christmas Collection...? So that we too, can get started on our own Christmas Card crafting? None of my regular Doodlebug Scrapbook Suppliers have this collection in stock yet, and as you said, it is Crunch Time!
