Tuesday Ideas {Special Delivery}

Hello! It’s Kelly here today sharing a Christmas design using an assortment of fun stamps, including the newly released Everyday stamp set. I  love how versatile it is and it really does live up to its name! I used the oval/circular image from the set to create the background for today’s card. I used white pigment ink and stamped it onto a piece of Kraft cardstock that measures 4 by 5 1/4 inches. I rotated the image to get some variation in the design and to give it some extra visual movement.

I stamped the large Christmas sentiment, which is from the Oh Christmas stamp set,  directly onto the Kraft panel using black ink. I used my MISTI so that I could get a good impression.

 The red and white striped “postal” image, which is from the Happy Mail stamp set, is stamped on a strip of white cardstock and then adhered underneath the large Christmas sentiment using liquid glue. I ran it through my sewing machine using a zig zag stitch for some added detail.

The rest of the images are also from the “Happy Mail” stamp set. I stamped the envelope image onto a piece of red cardstock using black ink and then popped it onto the Kraft piece using foam squares. I stamped a trio of images onto a strip of white cardstock; special delivery, green chevrons, and the “Happy Mail” seal image. I popped this piece onto the red piece for even more dimension. The finishing touches are the fussy cut “Just for You” stamp, the holly embellishment, and a few sparkling gems. I adhered the entire focal piece onto an A2 white card base.  This design could work well for a birthday, Valentine’s Day, and more; all you would need is to change up the colors and main sentiment!
