A kite-shaped Santa ready to fly as a gift tag or ornament!
-
Stamp in a rainbow dye ink, cut with plain or decorative scissors, layer
with a contrasting border, color and embellish as desired.
-
Decorate the fur on Santa's hat with a thick layer of glitter glue or a row
of gems.
-
Punch a hole for cord or ribbon.

All of these cards began with the same reindeer stamped in a rainbow pad with
shades of green. What makes each one different is the added layers and
embellishments.
-
The card at the bottom right has wide wire-edge ribbon pulled through holes
punched at the corners. The ribbon holds the stamped image into an arc (like
a bridge) for extra dimension.
-
Use this "multiple choice" idea for any stamp. Change the shape, background
layers, and embellishments and you'll never get bored!

Stamps are truly "chameleons" with endless possibilities. This trio shows a
simple image with minimal embellishment, careful coloring, and a
direct-to-paper "antique" effect.
Holiday postcards are lots of fun to make, too. Every card doesn't have to
be sent in an envelope.

A single color, embossed, or a rainbow ink pad with hand coloring. More
options that can be used with this stamp or any other you choose.

This elegant emblem stamp, plus gel pens and decorative scissors, shows
another way to make ornaments or gift tags.
-
Cut two slits at the top of a folded card and hang the ornament on the front
for a removable gift that comes with your greeting.
-
Instead of punching a hole, layer the emblem on a second color, leave a
border, and layer onto a folded card.
