Build Your Stash Holiday Cardmakers ~ Sketech #65

Hi Crafty Friends,

I am so happy that I am a DT member of BYSHcardmakers.  These monthly Christmas sketch challenges guaranteed that I had enough cards for my holiday mailings (which was 61 mailed and 10 hand delivered.)
So let's begin the new year with the goal of having a full holiday card stash by Christmas.

Here's my first BYSH card for the new year.


I had the negative piece left from cutting the Pinkfresh Studio Holiday Foliage die which I added over some gold embossed patterned paper.  The sentiment is from Gina K's Shimmering Christmas polyglaze set and the gold and green foliage was in my stash.

Here's the sketch for your inspiration.


You can find more inspiration of the BYSH blog linked above.

Moving Along with the Times January 2026 ~ Stencil and/or Dies

Hi Crafty Friends,

Another monthly challenge is beginning its New Year of challenges.
Our first 2026 theme for Moving Along with the Times is
Use stencils and/or Dies.

I purchased the Gina K Designs 12 Days of Christmas Advent kit.
The Magnificent Magnolia Stencil set was Day 12 and it's stunning.


I also used Jaded Blossom's mesh stencil, Taylored Expressions A2 layered Stacklets, and the Fancy Sentiment Strips Betterpress plate and die.  I added Simon Says Stamp gold splatter medium.

I look forward to seeing what you create.

Happy New Year!!!
