10 Handmade Christmas Cards and Holiday Projects

Ho Ho Ho... Merry Christmas in July!

Remember last year when you said you wanted to get an early start on your Christmas and holiday projects? Here are some project ideas and a SALE to help inspire you to get started soon!

Today we are featuring some brand-new handmade Christmas cards from the Technique Tuesday Design Team. We are also sharing some of our favorite winter-holiday cards, diy gift tags, December Daily pages, and Christmas craft ideas from the past.

Plus don't miss the Christmas in July sale. All of the stamps and dies in our Christmas Collection (including many of the products used to make these cards, tags, and scrapbook accents) are 25% off from 7/20 through 7/23! If you subscribe to our newsletters, we sent you the coupon code early Saturday morning, 7/20. Not a subscriber yet? Sign up now and we'll send you all the details right away!

Handmade Santa Card

Don't you bet Santa would put this card on his nice list? Teri used the Dear Santa stamp set and the matching dies to make this adorable card.

It's April Reveal Day!

Tam & Julie here, to let you know that we are not fooling around today. We have our super-duper serious faces on, and will not stand for any kind of tom-foolery. Nor any Tam-foolery! But Julie-foolery is just fine. ;)

But seriously, we're not joking when we say that these new stamps and dies are gorgeous! Bev will tell you all about it in her new release video, below. You've probably been following along with our sneak peeks of the Monkey Business, Growing Garden, Garden Sentiments, and Meadow Flowers, but now you get to see everything!

Cool, right?

April's Sneak Peek #2 Is Going to GROW on You!

Are you ready for spring? Around my house, we are buying seeds and starts, getting our garden beds ready for planting, and planning which veggies are going where. Both of today's sneak peeks let me feel feel like I'm playing around in the garden even when it's pouring down rain outside.

---

This month's Memory Keepers Studio stamp set is named Growing Garden. It will help you make scrapbook pages about your garden, layouts about your child or grandchild who are growing like weeds, or gardening-themed cards for your friends and family members.

Are you a member of the Memory Keepers Studio auto-ship program? We will ship the Growing Garden stamp set to you starting on April 10th. You may also want to add the matching Growing Garden dies to your auto-shipment. If you do place an add-on order, don't forget to choose the "Members only: Add to my existing monthly shipment" option so you don't pay any additional shipping!

Not a member? Learn how you can save 25% of the Memory Keepers Studio stamp sets, receive free shipping on your add-on orders, and about the other benefits of becoming an auto-ship member.

If you like the sneak peek of the Growing Garden stamp set, you will probably also like the Garden Sentiments stamps and matching dies. The hand-drawn garden and plant images from these two sets are designed to be mixed and matched together.

I hope you enjoyed the sneak peeks of these two sets of stamps and dies. If you want to be the first to see all the new stamps and dies on the new release reveal day, sign up for our Inner Circle Newsletter. We'll send you all the details on Monday!

April Sneak Peek #1 Is Some Serious Monkey Business!

March is going out like a lamb here in Oregon (the daffodils in my yard are blooming in force). That means we are getting ready for April's showers with some new stamp and die sets! The first on that list (and possibly my favorite Animal House stamps and matching dies ever) is Monkey Business.

I may have been a huge fan of a certain TV singing group who often monkeyed around, and I might have absolutely loved a certain inquisitive primate whose best friend wore a yellow hat when I was a kid, so these are right up my alley. Apparently I'm not the only one, as our Design Team and Guest Designers have been sending us some awesome projects with these guys. 

The Monkey Business stamp set and matching craft dies includes three cute monkeys, the requisite banana, and some funny, punny phrases to go with them. These little guys are excited to get to meet you on Monday when we do our big reveal of the month's new products. Come back and see it all, including a blog hop with the design team. Or you can sign up for the blog's RSS feed, and automatically get the sneak peeks and information about the blog hop too!

PS: If you're a member of the Animal House, you'll find the Monkeys in your mailbox mid-month, with the rest of your auto-shipment.

Not a member? You can pre-order yours on April 1. Or, if you would like to save 25% on cute animal stamps and dies each month, check out the Animal House auto-ship program. Members enjoy discounts, exclusive special offers, plus free shipping on their add-on orders.

March Memory Keepers Studio Stamps & Fresh Cut Studio Dies

It's the last day of sneak peeks, so today you get a two-fer. This month's theme is House and Home for both the Memory Keepers' Studio stamp set and the Fresh Cut Studio dies. 

Like all the Memory Keeper Studio sets, the Love Home Stamps are designed to help you make great scrapbook layouts and project life pages. This brand-new set is perfect for recording and celebrating the place you spend most of your relaxing time - home! You'll find so many ways to use the hand-drawn images and phrases to create accents for your photos, or to make journal cards. The photo captions and embellishments you make will be perfect for projects about your current home, your childhood homes, grandma's house, or even your favorite home away from home. Plus make sure you watch Bev's release video tomorrow to see how these stamps can be used to make amazing cards too!

Are you a member of the Memory Keepers' Studio auto-ship program? We'll be shipping this stamp set to your home-sweet-home in March.

Not a member? Not to fret, you can pre-order your set starting tomorrow, March 1st. You may also want to look into becoming a member of the Memory Keepers' Studio yourself.

The Fresh Cut Studio dies for March are named The Build a Birdhouse Crafting Dies. They're super-cute on their own, but why stop there? These dies also pair beautifully with the Love Home stamp set. These are the kind of cute little birdhouses you don't need to get out your hammer and nails to build!

We will ship the Build a Birdhouse Crafting Dies to the homes of all Fresh Cut Studio members in March. If you're not a member, don't worry, you can pre-order starting March 1st. Or check out all the benefits of becoming a member of the Fresh Cut Studio yourself.

I hope you enjoyed the last day of the March Sneak Peeks. That means tomorrow you get to see the whole shebang. See you here for the big reveal and the new release blog hop!

Announcing the Winners!!

Today is a wonderful day! We woke up to a dusting of snow here in Portland, it's my little brother's birthday, and, best of all, it's time to announce the winners for this month's Sneak Peek and Reveal Day Drawing!

The winners this month are (Drumroll, please!):

Dana M.,

and

Arianna B.

Congratulations! Please watch your inboxes for an email from Customer Care today. They'll be sending their own congratulations along with your gift card.

Of course, I feel like we all won, getting to see the beautiful and imaginative little pieces of art that our designers have created. I invite you to go have a look at the new release, and flip through the project photos posted on each product page.

 

I know those projects have inspired me to try a few new ideas, and to use some of those stamps in unusual ways. How about you?
