The Christmas sets in the Mini Catalog are all fun and beautiful. But I do have a favorite. The Humble Home Bundle is such a simple and sweet set that it gets my Top Pick rating.
Stamp Bundle
The Humble Home is just a cute stamp set with a matching punch. Punches are my preference for quick cards and this one is great. I kept this card fairly simple on the stamping so it would be a quick one. There are a couple of sentiments in the set. And this one is my favorite.
The sentiment is stamped using Garden Green Ink as I wanted a bright green to match the DSP. And the house is stamped with Real Red Ink. The gingerbread trim is colored with Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blend just for an added touch. Plus if you look closely you will notice a little silver door knob. In place of bling, I added this silver pearl for the door knob. This is an addition that would be easy to make any color to match your colors simply by coloring a pearl with Stampin’ Blends.
The house is stamped onto the Basic White. I debated on punching out the house and raising it, but opted for this flat one. However I did utilize the punch to get the adorable heart in the upper corner. Having a separate heart is always handy for a multitude of card projects. Now just to remember it!!
Dies
The Bundle may include a punch, but I still used a Die. Just to give a little added texture, I cut the Basic White rectangle out using the Deckled Rectangle Die set. This size is the 4th largest of the Dies. There are a lot of them to choose from!
Papers
The card base is a basic Real Red base. However I added a lot of bright and fancy with the DSP layer. These Christmas light strings are from the Reindeer Days Designer Series Paper. This paper screams Christmas in a wonderful way. Just looking at these lights makes me smile. And that is what card making should be all about. That and having fun !
