Stampin’ Up! My Hero Christmas Card

I  used the Stampin’ Up! My Hero stamp set to create a quick Christmas card to share with you today.  The My Hero stamp set is the Ronald McDonald House Charities stamp this year and it’s awesome!  You can find it on page 209, inside the back cover of the 2016-17 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog.  Stampin’ Up! donates $3 to Ronald McDonald House Charities for every My Hero stamp set that is sold from this catalog.  🙂

My Hero - Stamp With Amy K

My card design was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches #240.

I started by embossing a panel of Garden Green card stock with the Holly Embossing Folder.  I adhered the embossed panel to a panel of Very Vanilla card stock with SNAIL, then to a Cherry Cobbler card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

My Hero 1 - Stamp With Amy K

I adhered strips of This Christmas Specialty DSP to Cherry Cobbler card stock, then to the card front with SNAIL.  The This Christmas DSP is a fantastic pack!  You get four sheets of six different designs for a total of 24 sheets.  The other great thing is that one side of each sheet has a Christmas/holiday theme and the other is a more general print that could be used any time.  Another must have designer paper pack from the catalog!

My Hero 3 - Stamp With Amy K

I colored the sentiment from the My Hero stamp set with my Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green Stampin’ Write Markers and stamped it on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock.  I cut the sentiment out with one of the Layering Circles Framelits dies and I adhered it to a scalloped circle cut with another Layering Circles Framelits die from Cherry Cobbler card stock with SNAIL, then to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

My Hero 2 - Stamp With Amy K

I added a Garden Green enamel star from the Regals Enamel Shapes pack to finish the card front.

Peace This Christmas - Stamp With Amy K

I stamped the sentiment and images from the Peace This Christmas stamp set in Cherry Cobbler and Garden Green inks on a panel of Very Vanilla card stock inside the card.

  1. Great take on that sketch! It’s about time to start thinking about Christmas cards as slow as I am! TFS

  2. I love how you were able to sneak in a few different patterns with this sketch. The new holly embossing folder is really pretty!

  3. Wow, that was a challenging sketch! I like how you used the layers behind the DSP. And the embossing folder is gorgeous, I really love the way it turned out! Christmas will be here before we know it, yikes!!
