Superbly SAVVY!


Birch Tree


This is Savvy's special time of the year. The brand has TONS of Holiday-themed stamps, such as the Birch Tree stamp above. It's great because it can be used for fall (as shown above), but it can also be used in a snowy winter scene (see below!) or you could even flock with Flower Soft's Ultra Fine Green to make leaves for spring or summer!



Add the Petite Deer stamp to add interest to any seasonal scene!! Just the right size to put in the forefront!

Want to make holiday card supply shopping easy on yourself? May I suggest the Winter Wonderland Kit? Super-cute stamps that you can use together or separately for any project!


I literally just made this card today around lunch time. It was easy to make, and I think it turned out pretty cute (if I do say so myself). Thanks to Steph for teaching the class!!! We used Savvy's Aqua Reverse Mini Dot Note cards (they come with the envelopes!) for the backing, the Let it Snow Script stamp, the Ski Time stamp, and Snowballs for the Hat's puff ball. The ink is Tim Holtz's Walnut Stain Distress Ink Pad, Hero Arts' Green & Red Gemstones, and a red marker like Copic's Redwood.


To make this lovely creation, you'll need the Merry Christmas stamp by Savvy, Light Bright Tree by Savvy, a green ink pad like Stazon's Olive Green, and Gold Stickles by Ranger.


This might be the cutest snowman I've ever seen. I need to learn to enjoy the snow like him! It's a Savvy stamp called Let it Snowman.


This classy card was made using Savvy's stamp called Large Damask - it's actually what the whole background is stamped with!! Want a white ink pad? Try Snow by Hero Arts!


Grab some Latte Note Cards and go to town with this gorgeous Cookie Snowflake stamp by Savvy!


Wish your friends and family Happy Holidays with Savvy's Swirl Ornament. Add some Glossy Accents and Prisma Glitter and you're good to go! If you want a good looking pine bough, as seen here, try Artistic Outpost's Ave Maria set (the stamps are deeply etched too so you can't miss)! I think I'd use May Arts' velvety Silver Ribbon for the bow.


Vanilla Harlequin Note Cards, Holiday Wishes, and Ski Time

I hope you're inspired!!!

WE LIKE TO MOVE IT, MOVE IT!

This week's Simon Says Challenge theme is Movement! Therefore, all cards entered must have a movable part or something to do with movement. Below are the creations by our beloved Design Team! Thanks for visiting, and if you'd like to enter the Challenge, please check out the instructions on the left side of the Challenge Blog. We'd love for you to share your work! : )

Designed by Debby
Debby used the Skateboarding Snoopy stamp. I really like the pinwheels too! Check out the Bold Pinwheel stamp by Hero Arts if you like them too!

Designed by Jo
Jo used the Mermaid Emma stamp by C.C. Designs. I like her tiara/headband of diamonds too (see Medium Diamond Gems for a similar option). The sentiment is from a Hero Arts Clear stamp set called Oceans of Joy.

Designed by Chris
Chris, I love that you have confetti in your card!! Very cool. I also like the bright yellow paper - it reminds me of Summer Sun Cardstock by Stampin Up. The stamp that she used is called Looking at You and is by Penny Black.

Designed by Lols
Lorraine used the Changito Driving stamp by Stampendous. I love that she added "passed" as the license plate - what a fun idea!! She also used the Arch Lattice edge punch by Martha Stewart. Like those papers? They're from a newer line by Basic Grey called Oliver!

Designed by Christine

Christine's card cool because it turns! One minute there's a cat in the window and then a giant spider! The cute characters are from a Hero Arts Clear stamp set called Frightful. If you want to use a brad like she did for a doorknob, you're in luck! We have metal brads by Doodlebug, Tim Holtz, and Hero Arts just waiting for you to buy them!

Designed by Domi
Domi used the Honey on the Run stamp by Gruffies. Try Obsession Brown flowers by Prima for brown flowers - they're embossed too! Need buttons? Buy Summer Buttons by Autumn Leaves!

Designed by Marcea
Marcea used Diamond Dust for the glittery snow - a great effect! The snowflakes were made using Create a Flake by Spellbinders. And the image was masterfully colored using Copic Markers.

Designed by Heather
Heather used new Magnolia stamps! The truck is from Tilda & Edwin Tours, and there is Jungle Edwin, and Break & Feather leaves!

Jane used the Vintage Shabby paper pad by Tim Holtz, along with Walnut Stain ink to distress it (lookin' good!!). The image is Charlotte Riding on Pigeon by Whiff of Joy.
