Do you like to stretch your stamps? Today I have created a fun masculine design using a Christmas stamp set!
But first, this post is part of a Hop celebrating a new release from Altenew so you should have arrived here from TENIA’s wonderful Blog.
I’ll start with the funnest one! I was so excited to see this Globe Builder Die Set.
And I did hold back on the temptation to make it a shaker… though it was hard to do lol.
My next design is very clean and simple. I am loving the retro style of this release and these bells look like they have a real shine.
And I think the Mid-Century Cover Die looks amazing tone on tone.
My final design was fun to make. Can you see how I pulled the stamps from the Mid-Century Festivities Set together and created this masculine design.
I think it’s wonderful when we can stretch our Christmas supplies to use them all year round.

Fabulous, Therese! Your masculine card brought me back to my childhood – and the Jetson’s! I always adored the ‘jingle bells’ in the bells and bows set – this little bell is a great addition to it! But that cover plate? May just be the one I can’t let get away! Though the snowman comes in second – it is the ‘funnest’ of all!

Gorgeous cards! Love the retro one and bells are gorgeous.
Great inspiration with this release!
I love mid century modern, but the snowman stole my heart. The colours and glittery bits are awesome.
I love the cute snowman! The aqua, pink/red combination is very “modern”- not what I would usually go with, but is it is bright and cheery. I guess I will have to go out of my comfort zone and give this combo a try! Thank you for the inspiration!
Retro baby! Each of these cards provide a different kind of inspiration for me. I want to try them all!
As always, your cards are so gorgeous!
Thanks for sharing…
Fantastic cards- love the snowman! The Globe Builder set looks like fun!
LOVE your CAS design on these fabulous cards with the mid century mod look!
Beautiful cards Therese. I think that snow globe set is going to be very popular, the little snowman is so cute. Also love the mid-century cover die and the bells, paired they make a truly elegant card. Great colourway in the retro card. Very reminiscent of an Irish fashion designer who still produces designs in this colour combo. Thank you for the inspiration. I think I know what’s going int o my shopping basket â¤ï¸
The Retro elements of this release are so much fun! Love the bells and that wonderful tone-on-tone background!
THE CHAIR CARD!!! I wanna move right in
I love the mid century modern card! The stamps and dies are awesome!
I love that snow globe and snowman!
Such fun cards! Love that snowman!
Your cards are awesome!
That snowman is magical and love the silver bells too. I love the idea stretching your stamps and that masculine card is amazing.
Love the snow globe. What did you use for the snow? Love the retro look of the Mid Century Festivities card.
Hi Jeanne, I used a product that I bought last year and think I only got to use it once… here’s my afflink, it’s called True Snow and so wonderfully dimensional! https://shrsl.com/36d5k Hugs Tx
I love your Mid-Century card! I have to get this set, it will make a perfect carder my aunt. I love how you made it masculine and for all year round.
Such fun cards!
The snowman is my favorite, so cute!
Great cards, love the snowglobe x
The snow globe and snowman have to be my favorites!
Gorgeous cards. Whenever I see retro design like your card, I think of The Jetsons. I don’t know if Australia had that show, but, when I was a kid, it was a cartoon show about a futuristic family and their goofy dog, Astro, who, just like Scooby Doo, spoke with a goofy accent. He was the best part of the show. You could probably Google it. 😀
Such darling retro cards! I especially love the snow globe with that cutie snowman.
Great designs! I love the retro chair and lamp! Fun set! An the snow globe is adorable with that cute snowman! Awesome bells and cover die too!
The mid century cover die looks great white on white. The snow globe looks fun to put together and I know people would love to receive it.
You are right Terese. I love the globe builder set. Looks like fun.
Such gorgeous cards! I love each one but the first with the snowman is my favorite, I love snowmen and its so cute! Thank you for sharing your inspiration with us, you are truly talented!
Great cards. I love the colors you picked out for the bells.
What cute cards! They’re all great.
I am in love with the last card!
Just loved all the cards. I so adore the snow globe card, Order it!
But that retro card is just adorable.
My daughter and I are reupholstering a chair in this very style, though in a funky turquoise.
I’ve got a few things on my Altenew wish list from this release.
Cheers
Lisa
Wonderful retro cards! I just love that cover plate.
The snowglobe is a cutie.
The snowman globe card is terrific, especially with the simple sentiment. The retro cards are terrific also, as they are clean and simple, but there’s a lot to catch your eye, thank you.
That snowman card is adorable!
Love the lounge scene! Definately takes me back!
These are some of my favs from this release and your inspiration projects are wonderful.
Love this retro look, executed perfectly by you 😊
Love your cards, especially that fun snow globe and the adorable snowman!
