I’m back with one last look at the Holiday Expressions mini catalog from Close to My Heart which is all about the upcoming holiday seasons. It’s filled with items for card making, gift packaging, scrapbooking and jewelry making with clear stamp sets, embellishments and pattern papers. You’ll find spooky items for Halloween, like steampunk spiders, cute kids dressed for trick or treat, labels and tags for treat jars and candy bags. There’s nature inspired wreaths, pumpkins and leaves for fall and Thanksgiving. As well as cute, traditional and whimsical style items like Santas, penguins, nativity, phrases, woodland animals and trees for Christmas and winter.

I stamped him and then colored him with markers and then masked him so I could stamp the snowflake all around him in blue. The pattern paper is from the My Reflections White Pines paper pack. I took a strip from the top of one of the pattern papers and used it instead of ribbon to accent the card, folding over a small piece for the bow, adding a tiny button in the center. This card makes me ready for scarves and sweaters!
For this next card I used the Reindeer Bells stamp set, isn’t it fun? I stamped the “Ho, Ho Ho” repeatedly down a piece of pattern paper from White Pines, coloring the letters in. Then I stamped out Santa and masked him so I could stamp a few reindeer around him, I colored everything with markers (adding a red nose to one reindeer :)) and adding a pile of gifts too.
Lastly I made this cute card using many layers of different pattern papers from the White Pines pack and again used one of adorable animals from the Miracle of Christmas set, the fox, this set is going to be a favorite of mine this holiday! The sentiment is also from this same set. I accented the card with a button tied with twine.
