I used the cute Woolly Friends stamp set bundle from the upcoming January-April 2026 Mini Catalog to create a fun sending sunshine card to share with you today. I also did a video tutorial showing you how to create this on my YouTube channel right here.
I started by adhering two panels of patterned paper from the Mixed Up Patterns DSP (available January 6) with Multipurpose Liquid Glue to the front of a Thick Basic White card base. Then I wrapped a strand of Linen Thread around the card front twice and tied a bow. I cut a panel of Basic White card stock with one of the Textured Notes Dies (Online Exclusive item) and then stamped the grass image from the Woolly Friends stamp set in Granny Apple Green ink across the bottom of the die cut.
I stamped the tulips image from the Woolly Friends stamp set in Granny Apple Green ink across the die cut rectangle and then inked the leaves image with Granny Apple Green ink, stamped it on scrap paper and then stamped it over the lined images. I stamped the tulip tops image from the Woolly Friends stamp set in Bubble Bath ink across the panel. Then I used Blending Brushes to apply Granny Apple Green and Balmy Blue inks across the die cut. I adhered the rectangle to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I stamped the sheep body and head image from the Woolly Friends stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento ink on a panel of Basic White card stock and then colored the image with the Light Gray Granite and Bubble Bath Stampin’ Blends Markers and then punched the images out with the coordinating Woolly Friends Builder Punch (available January 6). I adhered the body to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals and the head with a Mini Glue Dot. Then I stamped the bow images from the Woolly Friends stamp set in Bubble Bath ink on a panel of Basic White card stock and then punched it out with the Wooly Friends Builder Punch. I adhered the bow to the card front with a Mini Glue Dot.
I stamped the sentiment from the Woolly Friends stamp set in Granny Apple Green in on a panel of Basic White card stock and then cut it out with one of the Textured Notes Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals and then added two Granny Apple Green hexagons from the Shades Of Green Hexagons to finish the card front.
I stamped the flower and grass images from the Woolly Friends stamp set in Granny Apple Green and Bubble Bath inks on a panel of Basic White card stock to finish the inside of the card.
