Mystery Stamping Replay

Here is the replay of Tuesday night's Mystery Stamping. If you've never tried Mystery Stamping before, it's so much fun! I give you step-by-step instructions to make a card, but I don't share my samples until the end. Everyone interprets the clues differently, so everyone's card is unique!

Simple Handmade Holiday Card

My first sample card idea uses the NEW Sentiment Christmas Designer Series Paper and a sentiment from the Reindeer Days stamp set. Both of these are from Stampin' Up!®️ 

I layered the patterned paper on Basic Beige and then put it on a card base of Pretty Peacock and Shaded Spruce.

Handmade Thinking of You Card

Here is a sweet Thinking of You Card using the Thoughtful Journey patterned paper with the Wildflower Designs stamp set for the sentiment. I layered the patterned paper on white cardstock and the card base is Blackberry Bliss and Wild Wheat. I added a few Faux Glass Dots as an embellishment.

DIY Christmas Card

Here's another handmade Christmas card idea! This time, I used the A Little Bit Festive Designer Series Paper. It comes with three sheets of die-cuts for quick card making. 

​Instead of using embellishments on this card, I used one of the die-cuts as an additional element on the sentiment. Speaking of which, the sentiment comes from the Greetings of the Season stamp set.
