Welcome to the Stamping Green. This month’s Let’s Craft Together Blog Hop had the prompt “Use a non-Christmas product and make a Christmas project”, set by Tracy.

Lighting the way shoebox swap card
While our shoebox swaps are supposed to be quick to make, this one took a bit longer, with lots of flowers and leaves to stamp. Julie created this cute easel card using the Lighting the way bundle. She even gave us all the battery tealight to put behind the vellum to make the lamp glow! […]

Have you seen the Flying Seagull card before? It was designed by Susan Campfield (AKA Sue Stampfield) and is perfect for those special birthdays. You can see her blog post here, and her video here. Her size doesn’t fit our Australian C6 envelopes so I’ve adapted it and converted to metric to create mine. I […]

Christmas card featuring the Brightest glow bundle
The final card from our shoebox swap was this bright card by Fiona. She created it using a die for the background that I hadn’t even noticed in the 2022-2023 Annual catalogue, called Artisan Additions dies. This die adds a lovely background for an easy card to give it a Wow factor. The sentiment and […]
