Stamp n’ Hop – Jump Start Christmas

October 12, 2018 by Mikaela Titheridge 17 Comments

Welcome to the Stamp n’ Hop blog hop, where this month we’ll Jump Start Christmas and aim to get ahead. If you’ve hopped on over from the talented Tracy, then you’ll have already been spoilt with festive inspiration to jump start Christmas.

Stamp 'n Hop Team Member Mikaela Titheridge, #6UK Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, The Crafty oINK Pen. Supplies available through my online store 24/7

Christmas wouldn’t be the same without the big fella himself and of course, everything happens at the North Pole in the build up.

 

Santa's Signpost Stamp set and Framelits and coloured using Stampin' Up! Blends for a quick Jump Start Christmas project by Mikaela Titheridge, #6UK Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, The Crafty oINK Pen. Supplies available through my online store 24/7

Oh yes, he’s making his list and checking it twice, he’s sure to find out if you’re naughty or nice ….

This stamp set and framelit bundle is timeless. Characterful and timeless and suitable for all ages and all sorts of projects. The papers that coordinate are adorable too and in all Stampin’ Up! style, the Framelits die cut the images in the Designer Series Paper too.

Santa was great fun to colour in using the Blends. Finer detail with shading is possible, but here I created a quick and simple card that you could easily stamp out for mass production and colour in front of the TV.

Can you see the fine detail of the Subtle Embossing Folder that I’ve used for the matting layer? It’s adds such fine detail, but it takes a plain card and transforms the space.

I love the candy cane post with the striking red and white stripes. It reminds me of the Barber’s pole I used to see when I was a child. There are still some around, but none so fun as this.

Again, coloured in on an internal matting layer, to help disguise the bleed through that is generated when using Blends pens. This card is a simple little card, with very few elements, but a great big HO HO HO punch of happiness.

Jump start Christmas savings

A 10% saving is possible when you purchase this bundle from the Autumn/Winter Seasonal Catalogue. What you save would be 50% of the way to purchasing a Santa’s Workshop Memories & More Card Pack.

Santas Workshop Memories & More coordinates with Santa's Signpost for you to Jump Start Christmas by Mikaela Titheridge, #6UK Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator, The Crafty oINK Pen. Supplies available through my online store 24/7

This card pack is just fabulous! Supplied in sizes that simply sit directly onto a card base, you really can pull together some great usable cards in very little time to really jump start Christmas. Several of my Customers are using this pack alone to get creative with their children this coming Half Term holiday. The images within this pack, coordinate beautifully with the Signs of Santa Stamp Set and the framelits from Santa’s Signpost.

You really can’t go wrong with this suite of products and you’ll have a LOT of fun getting creative with it.

Now if you want yet more inspiration to jump start Christmas even more so, then hop on over to one of my downline team members, Susan Simpson for yet more festive inspiration.

Thanks for hopping by and happy crafting

I may have been quieter than normal with my crafti I may have been quieter than normal with my crafting but I recently designed a series of cards for Die Cutting Essentials Magazine using the Fern & Flora Bundle by Stampin' Up!

I adore the botanical feel of these dies and what you can create with them. This wreath card screams whispy fresh air combined with richness, I just loved creating it. Would you welcome a botanical card like this for your birthday?
