CHRISTMAS TAGS INSPIRATION!

December 22, 2025December 22, 2025 Jenny Hayward

Only days out to Christmas but maybe you still need some inspiration for your Christmas Tags. These could be added straight to a Card Front too for Cards if you prefer.

These tags we made at our last Christmas Tag Class recently.

I have used a number of different products on these tags. You could use the same or substitute with what you have.

These tags used: the Ornamental Christmas Bundle. The Festive Friends Bundle. Modern Christmas Specialty Paper. Peaceful Garden Designer Series Paper. The Patterned Tags Dies.

Here are some more Tag ideas that I have created from past years.

If you are still madly creating for Christmas I hope that you get it completed soon. And if it doesn’t get done don’t stress. All will be Ok.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

WATERCOLOUR TREES WITH THE STAMPIN’ UP! ORNAMENTAL CHRISTMAS

December 18, 2025December 18, 2025 Jenny Hayward

I was going to film a video to show you how to make this card. But here we are a week out from Christmas…. So I thought I would tell you about it. It’s easy to follow along really I think.

This is the card.

The trees were given a light watercolour. Ink the “pine” type tree with the Classic Ink. I used Garden Green and then with a Water Painter lightly wipe over the branches spreading outward to wash out the colour. You only need a very light touch.

For the other tree I inked this up in Granny Apple Green and used the Water Painter to spread the ink. Start from the outside line and brush inwards. You will need to pick up more ink from the ink pad to spread enough ink but that’s ok. Add as much as you like.

Let the trees dry before you diecut. I used the Ornamental Christmas Bundle but if you don’t have that then try it with other tree stamps you have. This technique could work too with flowers or other images you want to colour. Give it a try.

To finish the card I stamped the sentiment on white card and diecut with one of the larger Arch dies in the Everyday Arches Set. Before I diecut the arch I added a strip of the Modern Christmas Specialty Paper near the bottom.

Now to go and finish the Christmas shopping. I am so behind. Anyone else like that??

Happy Christmas creating. I hope you’re more organised that I am.

WEDNESDAY’S WOW! 171 – A QUICK, SIMPLE CARD TO IMPRESS ~

December 10, 2025December 10, 2025 Jenny Hayward

Wednesday’s WOW! #171 – Make a quick, simple card to impress your friends.

Do you want a card that’s quick to make yet still want to WOW! your receiver?? Try this idea.

Trim off 2.5cm or 1″ from the Right Hand Side of your card front. Add some gorgeous paper and elements to the front. Inside add a strip of patterned paper that co-ordinates with the front paper that is just slightly smaller than the section. Add some white card so there is a space to write on. This really doesn’t take much more time that creating a full card.

This is great timing if you still have some Christmas cards to make. You can try this for any occasion though.

On this card I used the Stampin’ Up! Modern Christmas Specialty Paper. The Black, White and Gold makes any cards elegant. I also used the Ornamental Christmas Bundle.

Hope your Christmas creating is coming along well. We are nearly at the finish line.

Happy Christmas Creating,

Jenny

RED AND SPARKLY WITH THE ORNAMENTAL CHRISTMAS BUNDLE

December 4, 2025December 4, 2025 Jenny Hayward

Do you like sparkle for your Christmas cards? On this card I added some red Glimmer Paper for the Ornament to make it sparkly.

The card is using the Ornamental Christmas Bundle. The curvy lines that are in the stamp set I stamped across the top of the diecut ornament for some extra detail. When I diecut the ornament I added a piece of Glimmer Paper with the red card so this would all cut together and would line up with this ornament. You can do it separately though too if you would rather.

The paper is from the Modern Christmas Specialty Paper.

This is one of the cards we made at our Modern Christmas Class last weekend. I realised I hadn’t shown you all the projects yet.

This is the Ornamental Christmas Bundle. It’s an Online Exclusives so not in the Holiday Catalogue. You can see it more -> HERE.

How is your Christmas creating going?? Time to send those cards out so they can get there in time. I so need to do this myself …

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

‘TIS THE SEASON WITH THE STAMPIN’ UP! ORNAMENTAL CHRISTMAS BUNDLE ~

November 27, 2025November 27, 2025 Jenny Hayward

One with the Stampin’ Up! Ornamental Christmas Bundle today.

'Tis the Season with the Stampin' Up! Ornamental Christmas Bundle

Do you add texture on your cards? There are different types of texture here. The embossed background, gold detailed star diecut and some soft satin ribbon. And of course add the bling. Adding the texture adds extra dimension and interest on a card so it is not so flat looking.

If one of your cards is not quite looking right or looking a little flat maybe see how you can add some texture as some type of element. It will make a big difference.

This is the Ornamental Christmas Bundle I have used.

You can see it more -> HERE.

Happy Christmas Creating,

ANOTHER SHINY, GOLD CARD WITH THE STAMPIN’ UP! MODERN CHRISTMAS PAPER

November 23, 2025November 23, 2025 Jenny Hayward

More with the Stampin’ Up! Modern Christmas Specialty Paper. I have loved playing with this paper. It is so shiny and so classy for Christmas this year.

I have to say though. It is hard to take a photo with all the shine and glare you get. I used 2 different patterns of the paper together with this one and then a simple sentiment diecut with a circle from the Spotlight on Nature Dies.

I added texture by embossing a strip of Garden Green card with the Soft Waves Embossing Folder. Layering the pieces of paper on a card mat gives some contrast. The Cherry Cobbler piece was diecut with one of the rectangles in the Textured Notes Dies.

This would be a simple design if you have to mass produce your Christmas cards. It still adds a little class and shine but easy to cut and stick together in no time.

Hope your Christmas cards are going well.

Happy Crafting,

Jenny

ADDING A SHINY GOLD SENTIMENT WITH THE ORNAMENTAL CHRISTMAS BUNDLE

November 19, 2025November 19, 2025 Jenny Hayward

Christmas time is certainly the occasion for some gold and shine. This is a simple card with shine using the Modern Christmas Specialty Paper. And the addition of the Ornamental Christmas Bundle.

Initially I stamped the sentiment in black ink on the Garden Green card. It just felt flat. After a couple of days I came back to it and I redid it and heat embossed the sentiment in Gold. That made it extra shiny and classy.

If a card is not working sometimes it’s just a matter of redoing the sentiment to give it a little WOW! especially with some shiny gold.

I’m loving the Ornamental Christmas Bundle and the Modern Christmas Paper. The paper is not your traditional red and green but you can add those colours as well. It gives you extra class.

This is the Ornamental Christmas Bundle.

This is the Modern Christmas Specialty Paper.

Happy Christmas Crafting,

CLASSY GOLD WITH THE STAMPIN’ UP! ORNAMENTAL CHRISTMAS BUNDLE ~

November 14, 2025November 14, 2025 Jenny Hayward

I have played a lot with the Stampin’ Up! Ornamental Christmas Bundle and the Modern Christmas Specialty Paper. It is so gorgeous.

For this one I added a little more classy gold.

To create this diecut an ornament shape from Gold Foil then position it in the Christmas Words Collage Embossing Folder. You can see the words to get the best place. Then emboss through your Diecut Machine.

Also diecut an ornament from the lovely Modern Christmas paper too. Add a strip of black card and then some diecut gold dots.

If you don’t have this particular bundle you could still get a similar look. You may have another ornament style punch or die and even a different Embossing Folder. Gold adds a lot of class for your Christmas cards.

Happy Crafting.
