Cute Penguin handmade card made by Wendy

 

Hello everyone! Have you started making your Christmas cards yet ? I've made a few this year but it's definitely time to make a few more so our theme this week from Nikky was Christmas using a Snowman and Animal was perfect to give me a nudge to crack on LOL. I knew instantly I had to use my absolute favourite Theo Penguin and luckily there was a perfect image with his Snowman friend.
So I chose a christmassy paper from the collection and used this to layer onto a lime green, book binding Z fold card, die cutting an arched frame from the lime green card for my main focal panel. I added white glitter card into the centre of the frame, to coordinate with the snowman and then adhered the fussy cut out image onto this. The sentiment from the collection was cut into a simple strip and layered onto lime green card before adding to the bottom of the main panel.
The finishing touches for my Christmas card today were glitter to the snowman's hat, a few white gelly roll pen highlights and a scattering of teal confetti around the design. A really simple but I think fun card.
I hope you like my card and will join in the fun in the blog challenge this week. Have a fantastic week. Love and crafty hugs x.

Cute idea & tutorial for a Christmas Card using a Bear and Snowman digital stamp made by Ana...

Hi everyone! It’s time for another Digi Choosday challenge, and this week’s Design Team theme is Christmas and to use snowman or birds! For my project, I created a fun and festive shaker card featuring the super cute Santa - Christmas Cute Printable Digital Stamp.  I colored the digi with alcohol markers, added a touch of sparkle using Aleene’s glitter snow, and finished the card with plenty of shaker bits for a magical, sparkly and happy Christmas feel. It’s a simple design that’s perfect for getting a head start on your handmade holiday cards! I added this Santa - Christmas Cute Printable Digital Stamp to finish.

Christmas card idea using Clear photopolymer stamps and digital stamps together by Jane

Hello everyone. I am sharing a little FROSTY WINTER SMILES clear stamp goodness today featuring this sweet little snowman digital stamp with his bird pal called NEW FRIENDS. I created a wintery scene using clear stamps from the JINGLE BELLS stamp set and coloured with Copics. I stamped the little ‘jingle’ bell from the set 3 times then hand drew a cord to make them into a garland spanning one of the trees and the sentiment. A little torn and inked paper at the bottom became a snow drift for all to stand on and I finished with doodling around the edges.

How to create a shaped triangle handmade card, by Kathie...

Good morning and welcome to all my crafty friends and welcome to another Digi Choosday. This fortnight our design team’s theme is Christmas. I can’t believe Christmas is nearly here for 2026 where has the year gone? Did you know that we only have 15 Friday’s before Christmas day, that’s a bit scary isn’t it. I must have been dreaming when I read our brief, Christmas, Snowman with animal/bird and I don’t know what made me think it had to be traditional colours as well. I must have been dreaming. Today I’ve used this very cute Polkadoodles image JOLLY SANTA with these adorable Penguins and the design paper used was BELLA BEAR CHRISTMAS. This image comes black & white for you to colour, and it’s also available pre coloured to purchase. The image was coloured with the following Copic Ciao markers: C0, C1, C2, YR04, R27, R29, R37, R46, G07, G14, G28 , BV02, Black, Gold & Silver Gel pens. I now wish I wasn’t daydreaming and had used non-traditional colours my excuse is, I can always make another card. I look forward to visiting your blogs soon. Happy crafting everyone. You can find my complete instructions on my blog here.

Make a fun Santa themed handmade Christmas card...made by Eve

Hi crafty friends, it's time for my Digi Chooday design team card and today's theme is Christmas!
For my card, I used the Santa Snowman pre-coloured digi image and decorated it with Stickles to add a lovely touch of sparkle. I then used the gorgeous Merry Christmas Greetings Circle Wreath Dies to frame the image. I mounted this onto some light blue card which I had embossed using a snow embossing folder, adding a lovely snowy texture to the background. To finish my card, I added some pretty gems, a Poinsettia die and some corner punches, which completed my festive design.
Good luck entering the challenge!

Create a cute and fun Snowman card using cute digital stamps - handmade by Paula...

Hello again crafters! I made this cutie snowman and little birdie digistamp design into a wintery card that has so much texture and sparkle. I am not afraid of glitter – I embrace the sparkles! The background is an easy technique to do with pattern papers before printing it out. Adding special details can really give so much interest in your projects. I finished this with this lovely Christmas sentiment printable which i love. I used Ohuhu markers - color used: 0, BV29, BV31, BV38, R015, V13, V14, V18, V112, YR45, YR112, YR213
