One of the most common things I hear from people who follow me is how they feel they are too inexperienced to create the projects that they watch on YouTube. This video shows three different cards, each made with the same stamp set and colouring techniques but all very different.
Aimed at the beginner, casual and avid crafter its a simple way to see where to begin with cardmaking and how you can step that up.

For each project I used:
- Signs of Santa stamp set
- Block C&D
- Stazon Ink
- Snail
- Red notecards
- Stampin Write markers in – Real Red, Smokey Slate, Daffodil Delight, Blushing Bride, Flirty flamingo
- Whisper White cardstock

I kept it really simple for the beginner with just a stamped image and sentiment which I coloured using the stamping Write markers.
For the casual crafter I added:
- Santa’s Workshop Designer Papers
- Tag Top Punch
- Enamel Shapes
- Dimentionals
Taking it up another level to an avid crafters project I used the big shot to cut the square that the santa is stamped on. The triple banner punch to create the fishtails on the DSP and die cut the santa once coloured in.
The extra tools I used here are:
- Square Dies
- Big Shot
- Santa’s Workshop Dies
- Triple Banner Punch
