This Jingle Jingle Jingle Christmas Card With Bells was fun to design! This stamp set, Jingle Jingle Jingle, is probably a less noticed one in the Holiday Mini Catalog because it’s not part of a Suite or Bundle. However, it’s a fun stamp set with cute words and extra little stamps like a candy cane, Christmas lights, stars, and Santa hat, plus fun words to use as sentiments.
This card has a card base of Real Red and a layer of Basic White. I simply spaced out the stamped word “Jingle” using my Stamparatus to make sure I had it straight and that it stamped the image well in Real Red ink. I didn’t really do it the “right” way with my Stamparatus (I should have just moved the plate down instead of placing the stamp on the card where I wanted it!) but it turned out just fine. Using the lines on the Stamparatus, I could see if I had the word straight.
In between the words, I stamped the string of Christmas lights. These are stamped in Memento ink and colored in with Stampin’ Blends. I used Real Red, Pumpkin Pie, Granny Apple Green, Orchid Oasis, and Daffodil Delight. You can use the Light or Dark marker or any other colors you like for Christmas. Another tip would be to add some Wink of Stella Glitter Brush to each light bulb for a little bit of sparkle up close.
I added two Flat Jingle Bell Trinkets to the bottom of the card. I’m not sure where the red and white baker’s twine came from but it was on my desk so I used it! I ran the twine through the holes in the bell trinkets but glued down the bells with Mini Glue Dots. These bells are flat which is great because they will be easier to go through the mail. So cute!
I almost added some Iridescent Rhinestones or some jewels for a little sparkle, but then I decided to use the star stamp in the set stamped with Daffodil Delight ink.
On the inside of the card, I added a Basic White layer stamped with two rows of Christmas lights and one of the phrases in the set that goes with the bells. I could also stamp or write “Merry Christmas” underneath when I send the card and sign it.
Whether we like to think so or not, it’s the middle of September already, and time to get ahead of ourselves and start making our cards and projects so we won’t be so rushed when the holidays arrive! I am saying this to myself!
This Jingle Jingle Jingle Stamp Set is a good stamp set to use because you can make several different versions of cards with this set. The whimsical images will be fun to use!
