Make a Fun Christmas Card With Me – Jar of Joy – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK.

Today I’m sharing a bright and cheerful Christmas card design that’s perfect for spreading festive joy. This project features the Jar of Joy stamp set with the coordinating Sweet Jar builder punch. I had so much fun creating these cards, and I think you’ll enjoy making them too!

A Playful Jar Design

The Jar of Joy stamp set is a two-step stamp set, which makes it easy to build up fun little festive scenes inside the jars. I chose a mix of images for these cards, from gingerbread biscuits to ornaments and even a sweet little snowman. Each jar feels like a tiny snapshot of Christmas magic.

Colouring with Stampin’ Blends

All the images were coloured using Stampin’ Blend alcohol markers, which give such a smooth and vibrant finish. The markers allow for beautiful shading, bringing the gingerbread man, baubles, and snowman to life with extra depth and detail.

Christmas Tags and More Backgrounds

For the background, I used papers from the Christmas Tags and More collection. These patterns add a festive base to the card while letting the jars really shine as the main focus. I especially love how the plaid and leafy prints create two different but equally joyful looks.

measurements

Finishing Touches

A simple red bow tied in the corner of each card completes the design with a pop of festive charm. The sentiment, “Wishing you the sweetest Christmas,” ties everything together perfectly and makes these cards ideal for gifting to family and friends this season.
