Hello there crafty friend!
It's day 2 of the {BYSHC} Falling for the Holidays 2025 Linky Party!! I'm excited to share another holiday card that I've made to add to my Christmas stash! This time I played with a fun stamp from our fabulous Sponsor Unity Stamp Co. I love this cute cup and boy could I use another cup of coffee this morning! LOL!
This adorable cup is called Snowman to Go and right now it's on sale for only $6!! Say what?! That's a steal! If I didn't already have it in my stash, I'd be buying it. LOL! Anywho, I stamped the cute cup and colored it up with Copic markers. I die cut the cup using a die from the Postage Stamp Nesting Dies from Unity.
Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used:
Snowman: C0, C1, C3, YR20, YR15
Scarf / Heart: RV10, RV02
Snow: C0, C1, C3
Snowy Background: BG000, BG10
Snowman Cup: BG000, BG10, E30, E50, C0, C1
Cup Lid: E30, E50
Outline / Steam: C0, C1
I'm playing along with the Christmas Kickstart Challenge #103 - Snow Alert!
Before I started coloring I had chosen the Sugarplum Frost 6x6 Pattern Paper Pad, also from Unity. I just adore the coloring in this paper pad! I die cut my background panel using the largest die from the Postage Stamp Nesting Dies. I adhered it to a Kraft A2 top fold card base. I tore a piece of the blue pattern paper and adhered it across the card base. I die cut the plaid paper using a die from the Scallops & Banners {nesting dies}. I also die cut the sentiment using the same die, tore it and adhered the sentiment over the plaid paper.
Inspiration for my card came from one of our past sketches... BYSHC Sketch 10. I love using the past sketches and changing them up a bit to fit my card is always fun too.
All of my background paper layers are adhered using iCraft UltraBond Adhesive from Sponsor Therm O Web. I used iCraft 3D Foam Tape Jumbo Roll (white), also from Therm O Web, to pop up the sentiment on the card. And then I finished it off with a little confetti called Glossy White Card Bling from Sponsor A Colorful Life Designs.

DeleteSoooo beautiful I love your card and you enabled me lol I might grab that stamp. Love this sketch too so fun!!! Hugs!!
ReplyDeleteAwww... thanks so very much, Von Marie!
DeleteThis is beyond adorable, Crystal. I'm really loving the soft pastels and muted tones. What a soft sweet Christmas card. Thanks so much for your kind comment on my blog today. I had hoped to enter a lot more cards in this fun challenge, but Mom took a bad fall and is now hospitalized. I'm going back and forth between the hospital and my childhood home; trying to visit Mom and take care of Dad (92) at the same time. It's been a lot. I'm entering the few cards I'm able. Life is a busy place. God always gives me the strength I need. I appreciate your encouraging words. -Karen
