{BYSHC} Spring into Christmas 2026 Linky Party ~ Bear Hugs ~ Creative Worship Stamps

Hello there crafty friend!
I'm sneaking in one last make for the {BYSHC} Spring into Christmas 2026 Linky Party hosted on the {BYSHC} blog! Today I'm sharing a sweet holiday tag I made using a couple cute stamp sets from our lovely Sponsor Creative Worship Stamps.


I stamped the sweet bear from the retired Bear Hugs stamp set and colored him up with my Copic markers. I fussy cut him leaving a border. I then stamped the beautiful holly stamp from the Holly Jolly stamp set and die bundle using Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn Distress Inks. I added a bit of texture to the leaves with some Copics. I stamped the berries using Candied Apple Distress Ink. I also added a bit of shadow to the berries with a Copic marker.


Copic markers used:
Bear: E000, E30, E33, R00, R20
Candy Cane: R20, R14, R27, C0, C2
Mug: BG000, BG10, BG01
Snowflake: C0, C2
Holly: YG11, G46
Berries: R20, R27


I die cut the holly and berries using the dies from the bundle. I die cut an ornament for my tag from Kraft card stock using the Christmas Ornament & Bulb Tag Die Set from Creative Worship Stamps. The tag was a little too plain so I added a piece of pattern paper from the Winter Parade 6x6 Paper Pad from Sponsor Pajama Crafter Stamps. I die cut the paper using a die from the retired Stitched Circle Stacklets from Sponsor Taylored Expressions. And then I finished off the tag with pretty iridescent ribbon from my stash.

{BYSHC} Spring into Christmas 2026 Linky Party ~ Christmas Ornaments ~ RAM Stamps

 Hello again crafty friend!
I'm back with a couple holiday tags for day 3 of the {BYSHC} Spring into Christmas 2026 Linky Party!! Today's theme on the blog is ornaments... haha! I just adore the cute Christmas Ornaments from our Sponsor RAM Stamps {AKA Rachelle Anne Miller Stamps}. 


Aren't they just too cute?! I printed them off with the kitty digi I used on day 1. I die cut them using a die from the Essential Tags Die Set from our Sponsor Newton's Nook Designs. And then I colored them up with Copic markers.

Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used:
Snowman:C0, C2, R00, R20, YR15, YR68
Hat: N2, N4, N6, R20, R14
Scarf: R20, R14, C0, C2
Buttons: N2, N4, N6
Angel Hair: Y21, E43, E44
Angel Skin: E000, E00, E11, R00, R20
Dress: B000, B00, C0, C2
Wings / Halo: Y11, Y15
Shoes: B000, B00
Candle: R20, R14, C0, C2, Y15


I cut a simple mask from a post it note and blended the residual ink on my blue blending brush over the HeartFlakes Stencil using a light touch as I blended around the snowman. I did the same with the angel tag using my yellow blending brush along with the Dotted Wreath Stencil. But it was too light so I blended a bit of Mustard Seed Distress Ink over the stencil. It was still too simple so I used the top part of the Snowfall Stencil {the stars} to blend some bold stars around the angel. I like the results.


Now if I was to replicate these. I would die cut them leaving more room on the bottom so I could put the sentiments underneath the snowman and angel. I tied a couple bows and added some twine from my stash to finish these off. 


If you haven't already, stop by the {BYSHC} Spring into Christmas 2026 Linky Party to check out all the wonderful Holiday inspiration being shared!! My mojo is on overdrive with all the ideas I'm collecting! I hope you have an INKredible day!

Holly Jolly Everything Tag ~ A Little Ho Ho Ho ~ Unity Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend! 
Today I'm sharing a sweet holiday tag I made with the adorable new A Little Ho Ho Ho stamp from Unity. I had a few people ask me how I made the sweet reindeer tags I shared earlier this month for Brown Thursday so I thought I'd make another with this cutie and also record it for a video.


I die cut the cute Santa using a die from the Make a Tag {die set}. I also die cut some papers from the Where Winter Lingers {paper pack}

You can check out my process video here... Offset Layers Tag | A Little Ho Ho Ho | Unity Stamp Co. or click on the video below.




Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used to color up this adorable Santa.

Skin: E000, E00, E000, R00, R20
Beard / Fur Trim: C0, C2
Hat: R20, R14, R29
Coat / Pants: R20, R14, R29
Boots / Mittens: N0, N2, N4
Tree: YG11, G24, G46
Baubles: R20, R14, R29
Holly & Berries: YG11, G24, G46, R20, R14, R29
Ground: C0, C2


I distressed the edges of the tag with some Vintage Photo Distress Ink. I trimmed the sentiment and adhered it directly to the tag. I used a 1/8" hole punch for the top of the tag. I tied some thick twine from my stash and added a cute little bow to finish it off. I think it turned out pretty cute.

 Hello there crafty friend!
It's day 7 of the {BYSHC} Falling for the Holidays 2025 Linky Party!! And I'm back with a few tags that I made using an adorable digi stamp set from our fabulous Sponsor Angie Blom Digital Designs.


These cuties are from the Christmas Joy Mugs Digi Stamp. I combined and resized them on a Word Document and then I printed them off on white card stock.

Here's a quick list of the Copic markers I used:

I die cut the two bottom mugs using the Tag Stacklets 5 dies from our wonderful Sponsor Taylored Expressions. I also die cut Kraft card stock and adhered those to the back of these two tags. I fussy cut the tree cup and then adhered it to a scrap of Kraft card stock and then fussy cut it again.


All of my layers are adhered using iCraft UltraBond Adhesive from Sponsor Therm O Web. I added iCraft 3D Foam Tape Jumbo Roll (white) to the back of the sentiment on the Santa mug tag and popped it up. And then I finished it off with with a little confetti called Glossy White Card Bling from Sponsor A Colorful Life Designs.

Membership Wednesday ~ October 2025 KOM Frost & Folklore ~ Unity Stamp Co.

Hello there crafty friend!
Happy Membership Wednesday! Today I'm sharing 3 SUPER quick tags I made using stamps from the October 2025 Kit of the Month membership from Unity. 


These were so quick guys! Once I figured out what I was going to do, that is! I stamped the three tag images with Black Amalgam ink on Kraft card stock. I used circle dies from the Scallops & Circles {nesting dies} to die cut each of them.


I also die cut pattern paper from the gorgeous new I'll be Home for Christmas {paper pack} using a slightly larger die from the same nesting dies. I adhered them together, punched a hole in the top with a 1/8" circle punch and added some twine. 


I thought they needed something else so I tied a few bows from the iridescent ribbon I got from Unity years ago. I adhered those to the tags with glue dots. Done. Super quick and easy. And, of course, they could easily be jazzed up with some coloring and/or bling. But I love them just like this. 


Here's a quick look at this month's Kit of the Month membership!


These amazing tag stamps are also available separately in the With Love, From Me stamps.

That's it for me today! I hope you've been INKspired to play with your membership stamps! 
Have a wonderful day!
