You should have arrived here from Mona Toth's blog! I can't wait to check out her projects...love her style! If you didn't, you'll want to start at the beginning of the hop which is Alexandra Stapleton-Smith's blog!

I have four cards to share with you today so let's get started!  I couldn't wait to team up the new Scrapbook.com Big and Bold Christmas set with their Ink Blending Tool with Domed Foam Applicators!  For my First card I combined Scrapbook.com - Premium Hybrid Ink - Ballet Slipper + Cardinal Red.



The sentiment has been stamped in Scrapbook.com's Black Hybrid Ink.  LOVE this black!

Here's my second card, same as the first but with the following inks:



Have you tried out Scrapbook.com's stamps?  They stamp beautifully!  Love how crisp the images are!  The domed Ink Blending tool makes it super easy to use the stencil!  In today's project, I've used Stampers Anonymous - Tim Holtz - Holiday Knit on the flat side of the Tim Holtz Distress Watercolor Cardstock.

Next up is a couple cards that feature the Scrapbook.com Nested Stars:


My first card shows three of the stars stacked.  I've teamed it up with the Believe sentiment from Big and Bold Christmas, stamped in Hybrid Black ink.  The snowflake + pattern paper is from the Echo Park Papers - A Perfect Christmas 12x12 kit.  It has been adhered to the design with  Double Sided Adhesive- Small Rounds.  I'm a big fan of Scrapbook.com's

Flat Card Front
Neenah,  Solar White 25 Pack

These are staples in my craft room!



Check out my final card:


Do you see what I did?  I cut the stars out of the card front panel and stacked them on my other card.  The sentiment is from Christmas Fun Card Sentiments, heat embossed with Hero Arts Gold.

Such pretty cards! Love the sweater background!We have so many traditions from finding the perfect tree, to dated ornaments, to photos with Santa! Can't wait to celebrate this year with the 2 1/2 year old and 7 month old!
These are absolutely GORGEOUS!!!!
OMGosh these are so beautiful. Love those big bold words. Traditions, there are so many, but leaving Santa cookies and milk are at the top of the list.

Awesome cards Amy!

The sweater background is just wonderful, in both color schemes. My aunt made me a hat for Christmas when I was about 9. I snuck to see what was inside the package, and was disappointed that it was a handmade hat. Now I would LOVE to get a hand made hat!!!
Connie said…
wow, love your cards
Mary Holshouser said…
Love the bold plaid. Getting
several cards from one die cut
is great. The sweater background
on the first cards is so warming.
I look forward to
getting my Santa’s out of storage
and putting them on the mantle.
Takes awhile. thanks for sharing

Nice inspiration cards.

Christmas is all about family. My husband and mines first christmas was a disaster I burnt the roast potatoes and the pigs in blankets but he laughed and said he knows I can cook. I laughed so hard I cried.
Gisela said…
Handmade cards have turned into my newest Christmas favorite…. TY for adding this to the Holiday Parade. Love the shading . Merry Christmas
Tricia Podmore said…
Tricia Podmore here because I want you to know how cool your cards are and inspiring. Favorite holiday memories are the lights and my husband who plays Santa every year and has for 42 years.
Tamara said…
Great cards!! I love the buffalo plaid ones! Every year I let my 3 kids pick a new ornament for the tree. Something that they think is neat. tamaratelena@gmail.com

Super cute idea!!! Would love to see a tutorial video on this card ... if there was one I could not find it. Christmas for me is filled with so many memories. My favorite memory is being with my Grama and seeing what color her tree was each year … either traditional (multi color w/ silver icicles), or a Chrismon tree with white/gold ornaments (all of which were hand-made). This will be our 2nd Christmas without her. I would give anything to see her tree again (she was 102 the last time she put her tree up ... She would have been 104 on Dec. 3rd.) I miss her and all her traditions!

This is not my email ... It's an old email I no longer use and cannot figure out how to delete it. This is the second shop that has my old address on ... first was mona's - I use cozycorner1902 now ... Guess my entry won't count :(
Cheryl Wolf said…
Love your cards!!!! So inspiring!!! My favorite Christmas tradition is when the family gathers for Christmas Eve.
Pat Miller said…
Stacking the die cuts gives some striking dimension. Thanks for the tip.

Plaid stars..... Love them. Treasured memorie: waiting anxiously as a kid till it was dark enough to light the candles and then fight with your brothers and sisters who's turn it was to do so.
Isabel Z said…
I LOVE the cards that look like they are stitched--oh so pretty. A favorite holiday tradition is decorating the tree with my family.
Beth F. said…
What a great collection of cards! I think my favorite is the one with the stacked white stars. The crisp white contrasting the plaid is beautiful.
Donna said…
These cards are Claus for celebration!
newfymom said…
Wow! I really love the sweater knit card. It just gives off such cozy vibes. Wonderful!
MadeByMeghanK said…

Mary-Anne V said…
Just beautiful cards...love those plaid stars. I cherish Christmas 2007 when we celebrated with your youngest who was 1 month old.
Kelly said…

i love the cards that look like comfy blankets!
Patti H. said…
Love these awesome cards! I have those Big & Bold sentiments & cant wait to try these ideas. My favorite part of Christmas is the big Christmas dinner. So many old favorites that bring back memories & the camaraderie around the table is wonderful.
Vicki Dutcher said…
Lucky you getting to join in the hop! Nice cards! Love the “sweater” print ones 😀
Wanda R. said…
Love these cards and great getting 2 cards out of the bold plaid. I really love that bold stamp set and think I have to order it soon. We love driving around and looking at house decorations on Christmas eve.
Unknown said…
I love the black & red plaid, so pretty! I really like the stenciling on the first 2.❤️
Sandy M said…
Plaid signifies winter and holidays to me. Nice cards. Thank you for the ideas.
My family spent many Christmas holidays at a hunting camp and the hunters often wore plaid flannel shirts for warmth when they went out in the field. So many memories of my brother and father who have passed away.
Dana M said…
Fantastic cards Amy! Such pretty and festive designs, love the tall format of the pink and blue cards! I hope to be able to actually put ornaments on the tree this year. Our cat is now 1 1/2 years old and maybe will not think of the tree as her personal playground. (yeah, we'll see how that goes)
Ms Eva said…
I like how you used the stars on two cards. when my family goes to look at lights we have to make noise as in ooohhh, ahhh. Then we vote on best lights. eva msevawalker@yahoo.com
Jeanne Beam said…

I have a set of the big and bold stamps. Love them and love your cards.
Love your 4 creative Christmas cards! So clever! Love my memories of all the Christmas' of my children growing up and now that they are adults, we sit and look at my scrapbooked pages of those memories and laugh about the fun times!
Denise Bryant said…
Awesome cards! I love the big sentiment stamps and the nesting star dies!
A cherished memory... my Mom saved all the stamped cards I ever made for her, starting back in about 1987 when I first started stamping! It's fun to look through them!
Cheryl F said…
Great cards. Love the buffalo plaid!
Cheryl F said…
And a favorite tradition is putting together a puzzle
Amy, all the cards are great! Very unique. Fun hopping with you!
Vickie said…
Love the buffalo plaid. Were going to do our matchy Christmas PJs in buffalo plaid this year.
Loving the colors!!! Need to get started on our cards...I stamp a lot in my mother in laws year in review album I make her each year...just finishing up on ordering prints for that...it's a great tradition to give to her and I look forward to going through them each year.
