Welcome to week 15 of our Art With Heart, Heart of Christmas blog hop…our final Heart of Christmas blog hop for 2018!
This week I’ve made a card using two limited edition stamp sets: Happiness Surrounds and Snow is Glistening. They come with a set of matching dies that coordinate with both of these sets and all three products are only available until the end of this month, sadly.
This is the Snow is Glistening stamp set.
This is Happiness Surrounds stamp set.
And these are the matching Snowfall Thinlits Dies.
And this is the quick and simple card I’ve made using mainly the Happiness Surrounds stamp set.
I’ve used stamps from the Happiness Surrounds stamp set to make a simple wreath, stamped in Old Olive and then the sentiment is stamped in Real red using the Joy stamp from the Snow is Glistening stamp set.
I punched out both the circles using the 1 1/2 inch and the 1 3/4 inch circle pinches and finished the card off with striped burlap ribbon and 3/8 inch old olive and real red ribbon. The entire card came together in under 15 minutes with the minimum of fuss or equipment. Too easy!

Welcome to week 13 of our Art With Heart, Heart of Christmas blog hop.
This week I’ve made a card using a limited edition stamp set, Snow is Glistening. I know we don’t have snowflakes here in Australia but I really have a thing for snowflakes and I couldn’t resist this stunning stamp set.
Although this comes with matching dies, I decided to make a very simple card that only involves stamping. The design was inspired by a card I found on Pinterest that was made by an American demo called Mary Haugen. I’ve CASED her placement of the snowflake stamps and the way she wrapped the twine around the sentiment, but changed the colours as well as several other elements on her card.
I used the three snowflake stamps in this set to stamp my card in Night of Navy, Balmy Blue and Sahara Sand. I LOVE these three colours together.
The stamped Whisper White panel was mounted onto Night of Navy cardstock, then Balmy Blue cardstock and adhered to a Memories and More Whisper White card base.
The final touch is the simple joy sentiment, stamped in Whisper White and then heat embossed in Whisper White, with linen thread wrapped around it.
