Hi everyone! I hope you have been following my 25 days of Christmas video series hosted on my youtube channel. Each day for 25 days, I post a new video with a new technique on my youtube channel sure to get you ready for your holiday season! Today I am using all new goodies from the Ellen Hutson November release AVAILABLE NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This release is full of so many cute and fun stamp sets AND dies that make creating your holiday projects a breeze! I am a sucker for snowmen! I love them… I want to hug one, but it will melt! So these little cuties from Snow Buds will have to do.
Be sure to check out my video where I walk you thru the entire process of creating both cards. I also show you a bonus card that took maybe 10 seconds to make, lol!

Howdy ho!!!! I’m over on The Crafter’s Workshop blog sharing this card I made using the Fleur De Lis Doily stencil and texture paste. To create the background, I applied some white texture paste thru the stencil using a palette knife and allowed it dry completely. I could have left it as it was because the contrast of the textured white stenciled background against the white card base was pretty cool! But I didn’t, lol!
Instead, I lined up the stencil back over the design and then applied some distress ink over the top to really capture the design of the stencil! I used Fossilized Amber and Ripe Persimmon. I think those colors look gorgeous together. To finish off the card, I stamped and die cut the adorable hippo image from the Wish Big stamp set and die set from Ellen Hutson. Naturally as only I would do, I gave no thought to a sentiment so anytime I do that (which is often) I turn to word dies! This wonderful word die from Ellen Hutson is… well.. Wonderful! And saved my rump here because it made a perfect base for my hippo!
And since I used the texture paste, it leaves that bit of dimension behind on the background!
That’s all for today! I hope you guys have an amazing day!!!!! It’s hot as all get out here, phew!!!! In a few weeks, we start packing up for our move to Connecticut. Continued prayers are appreciated! This is so hard on me.
The Crafter’s Workshop provided me with some product to create this project. The opinions I share are solely my own.
