Jolly Old St. Nick

Jolly Old St. Nick is keeping his eye on you.

To make the window panes, I punched four 1 1/4" squares from scrap cardstock and using Dotto placed them on my Soft Suede CS and traced each square. Then I removed the pattern of four scraps and punched out the squares on my card front. It took several tries, and I'm pleased with the results. Hope you give it a try, it was fun to see Jolly Old St. Nick staring right back at me.

Recipe: Stamps: Jolly Old Saint Nick, Teeny Tiny Wishes; Paper: Real Red, Soft Suede, Whisper White; Ink: Basic Black, Real Red ink pads, and Real Red marker; Accessories: Modern Label, Word Window, Scallop, and 1 1/4" square punches, Candy Cane Christmas designer series paper, 1/2" red/white striped grosgrain ribbon.

The Jolly Old Saint Nick stamp set is in the Holiday Mini Catalog and is not available after January 3, 2011. If you would like to order any of the supplies to make this card, please contact me or visit my website at: http://www.lindafisher.stampinup.net/

Punched Snowman has Character


The more I make cards and projects using punches, the more I really like the end result of punched cards.

Isn't he just the cutest little snowman. We are going to make him at my January 8 and 13, 2011 class at my house. Yes, I know Christmas will be over, and it's never to early to start making Christmas cards for next year. If you don't want to make him a Christmas snowman, change the words to Happy Birthday and there you have it, a January or February birthday card.
