What an incredible weekend we had celebrating Christmas in July at The Stamping Lounge!
It was wonderful to spend time crafting with so many paper crafters from around the world as we created festive projects, shared inspiration and got a head start on our Christmas card making. There was plenty of creativity, lots of laughs and, of course, beautiful handmade cards.

For my project, I created this Christmas card using the adorable Stampin’ Up! Woodland Wishes Stamp Set paired with the beautiful Swirls of Magic Embossing Folder. I love how the woodland animals create such a sweet focal point against the rich embossed background, while touches of gold splatter, ribbon and layered die cuts add plenty of festive texture.

Inspired by Sketch #38

One of the highlights of the event was that all of the projects were inspired by Sketch #38 from The Stamping Lounge Sketch Box.

Our Sketch Box is designed to take the guesswork out of card design, giving you a collection of versatile sketches that can be adapted for any occasion. It’s always amazing to see how one sketch can inspire so many completely different creations!
If you haven’t added the The Stamping Lounge Sketch Box to your craft room yet, it’s still available to purchase and is packed with inspiration you’ll reach for again and again.
