So, let's see the inspiration from the team for this week  - we've been creating lots of gorgeous projects for you...


ENRICA - Hi crafty friends! Have you already prepared everything for Christmas? Or are you like me who always ends up doing everything at the last minute? Here is my square card using the adorable Robin Gift Branch digital image, colored with Copic. The sentiment is from the Bella Bear Christmas greetings and the embellies from the Baked With Love - Foliage digital download.


ENRICA Here is my square card using the adorable Cute Robins with Stockings digital stamp, colored with Copic. The sentiment is from the Bella Bear Christmas message sheets and the patterned paper from the Gingerbread Holly Papers 1.


Jenn B - Hello everyone! I used Printable Papers 3 - Winnie White Christmas for the background, then colored Choosing the Christmas Tree Elvis Wesley Moose with alcohol markers. I used some white Fun Flock on his hat and for snow accents on the tree. I attached him and the sentiment with foam dimensional tape. I then fussy-cut a couple of the candy canes from the paper to use as accents on the sentiment.


Revati - Hello crafty friends. Little teddy bears this Christmas will be so fun. How adorable is little Bella Bear Bauble. I used the pre-colored clipart version of little Bella Bear, which is absolutely perfect for your last minute christmas cards. For my sentiment, I kept it simple with the "Season's Greetings" from the Christmas Greetings Digi Stamp.


Jenn B - for my 2nd card, I used Printable Papers 3 - Winnie White Christmas for my background and coordinating paper to paper-piece his sweater. I colored Mistletoe Hello - Elvis Wesley Moose with alcohol markers and used red Stickles glue to highlight his scarf and the berries in the mistletoe. I attached him and the sentiment with foam dimensional tape, then dragged the edges of the card through a red ink pad.


Renske - Hello everyone! For this festive Christmas card, I started by colouring the Hot Chocolate - Gingerbread Holly digital stamp with alcohol markers and added highlights using a white gel pen for extra detail. The background features red, green, and white striped paper from the Theo Penguin Paper Bundle 2, which adds a cheerful holiday touch. I used the Theo Penguin - Greetings/Sentiments Bundle for the "Happy Holidays" sentiment, which perfectly complements the scene. To add depth, I layered die-cut branches, holly leaves, and red berries using foam tape. The entire design comes together to highlight the fun and festive spirit of Christmas. I hope you like it! Happy crafting!

CHRISTINE NANDRUP I coloured this cute Bella Bear in front of this door - she is so cute with her hot chocolate!


IRRE- Hello, for this week's challenge I created a Christmas card with the digital stamp Bearing gifts from Winnie Winterland. I colored the stamp with Copic alcohol markers. For the background, I used watercolor paper and added modeling paste through a snowflake stencil, colored it in with Distress ink and water, and to the modeling paste snowflakes, I added some glitter with a Wink of Stella brush. I decorated the card with a white net, die-cut flowers, and leaves with art stones. I also added a sentiment from the Bella Bear Christmas message sheets, quotes and sentiments.

Revati - Hello crafty friends, I have a cute little girl opening her christmas present along with her furry friends. I used the Winnie Celebrations 2 - Surprise Digi Stamp and colored it using my Spectrum Noir Tri Color Markers. For my sentiment, I used the Christmas Greeting Sentiment Digi Stamps. I love the font on this sentiment and thought that it would match perfectly with my focal point.


Judy: It's all about Christmas this week! I made a card using the Oh Deer Gingerbread Cookie Digistamp Bundle. These bundles are great, as they have everything you need for holiday crafting! I used one of the cute images and colored with pencils. It was fussy cut before adding to my card.The backgrounds done with 2 of the included papers and one of the sentiments and the pre-colored tree.
