North Pole Littles with Amy

Posted by Amy Young | Dec 23, 2022 | Uncategorized

Hello! It’s Amy with my final blog post of 2022 here on the HB blog. With Christmas just days away I found myself reaching for the North Pole Littles stamp set so I could have some fun with Santa as he prepares for his big night. There are so many adorable characters included in this set that it can be hard to choose which ones to ink up. So I went to my collection of HB dies to see how much room I would be working with and when I settled on the Nesting Mini Slimline die I could...

A trip to the tree lot with Amy

Posted by Amy Young | Nov 30, 2022 | Uncategorized

Hello! Amy here and today I’ve brought together stamps from six different sets to create a holiday scene at the tree lot. Since these winter days are so short, a night scene was the way to go and what better way to light up the night than with the strand of lights in the Halloween Party set. Yep, they may be part of a Halloween set but these party lights are just as perfect on a Christmas card. To fill the tree lot I repeatedly stamped the tree from the O Christmas Tree set leaning to and fro. Then...

Merry Carolers with Amy

Hello! Amy here and as Christmas nears it is always fun to try and capture as many different yuletide traditions as I can on the cards that I make.

As always,...

Hello! Amy here and I really wanted to play with the new Merry Makers stamp set for my blog post today. All five of the cute critters included in the set seem to be prepping for the holiday season which got me thinking about how fun it would be to see them busy decorating their home for Christmas. That’s when I remembered the awesome Cozy Burrow Scene die and a scene started to form in my head. I quickly grabbed the Cozy Burrow Scene die and ran it through my die cut machine using the Catherine Pooler white card...

Page Turner and a Tabitha twist with Amy

Posted by Amy Young | Sep 28, 2022 | Uncategorized

Hello! Amy here and even though I inked up the Page Turner stamp set for my last post here on the Hello Bluebird blog, I’m back at it today but this time there is a fun Halloween twist! I’ve been in the mood lately for Halloween card making, which initially had me grabbing the delightful Tabitha set. As I looked at all of the magical accessory images included in it, I realized that I could easily pair them with the seated reading girl in the Page Turner set to create a different kind of Halloween scene… one where a...
