Today it’s time for a bright and sunny Christmas card video! I am joining a collab with My Favorite Things and Ellen Hutson so to celebrate I have made three cards and a video to share with you.
Starting with a pastel striped background created with the Painted Stripes Stamp Set. I love the way the sentiment came together, I blended 2 ink colours and used the Dienamics Merry & Bright Die.
And just for fun one of the polar bears visited from the Merry Moments Stamp Set!
I stamped a bold black Painted Stripes background but this time I die cut the Joy, Love and Peace Dienamics from this and popped it up on the front of the card.
Then I added a shadow from the Abstract Paint Strokes Stamp Set for the little Santa from the Merry Moments set to stand on.
For my final card I created a video to share the process. I love making fun sunny Christmas cards and the new Sun-Lovin’ Santa Stamp Set is fabulous!
I stamped the Merry Christmas Blend sentiment in some bright bold colours
and added a subtle stencil Mini Cloud Edges background.
And a subtle addition to the sentiment using Totally Random Sayings Vol 3.
And you can see my video here or Watch it in HD at YouTube.

Really fun cards Therese, the. Colours you’ve used are beautiful. I love the Joy, Love, Peace card for its simple lines. That’s a “me” card! However, if the last card reflects your kind of Christmas, I’m coming to stay!
I love the ink blended sentiment in the first card and the stripes give the sentiment a very cool look in the second. Both Santa’s are cute, especially with Hawaiian shirt and pink sunnies!
This is such a fun card. I live in Florida, so I know what you mean about having a warm Christmas. I usually make winter type cards for Christmas for family and friends, but this set of palm trees and flamingos is so cute, I may have to change my way of thinking. Thank you for sharing this great card.
Wow, great cards! I think the Santa one is my fave. 🙂
Therese, Christmas season could not start without your fabulous cards! A wonderful collaboration!
I see a few of the new MFT goodies that are on their way to me – thanks for the darling inspiration!

Wonderful cards! Great video.
Thanks for sharing…
These are amazing! I am so loving the Yeti! Such craftsmanship!
I just moved to Hawaii and your sunny santa was great to see, what a wonder card. Thank you!
Sweet and fun cards! I esp love the pink and aqua color combo!!

Fabulous Christmas cards Therese. So different and in such gorgeous colours. Love the layouts and enjoyed watching you make that ‘cool’ Aussie Christmas card. Such a fun Santa.
Really cool card… I have family that stays in Florida for the winter, they would love this one. Thanks for sharing, love the coloring.
These are such great cards! Love the summery Santa – perfect for us Southern Hemisphere people!!
All of the cards are really cool and the last card with video turned out awesome! I love it! Fabulous scene that you built and love that it’s a summery christmas! I also love how the two toned stamped Merry Christmas looks as well. That polar bear fits with those colours perfectly, it brought a smile to my face and the Santa looking up at the Christmas time message – love it!
I love your fun and bright colors! Beachy Christmases are the best!
What a fun card, Therese. I have to admit I like the cold and snow of Christmas if it were only for that week. I think I’d miss it if I were in your Santa land.
That tropical Santa is super cute! I love how colorful you made it and the blue hat works perfectly!!
Three great cards. Great inspiration for my new stencil and summer santa.
Super art work – like the Summer Santa creation a lot!
What a wonderful combination of stamps, and also of colors! I love this warm Christmas theme!
A wonderfully fun set of cards, Therese! love the combinations and the colours you chose! 🙂
