Big Little Things – Playing With This Fun Animal Stamp Set – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I’m sharing two clean and stylish cards today that showcase the Big Little Things stamp set, and I have to say, this set is full of personality! These fun animal images are perfect for a wide range of occasions and work beautifully with patterned paper and bold colour accents.

For these cards, I’ve kept the layout simple but impactful, letting the stamped images take centre stage while adding texture and interest with layers and dies.

Card Design Details

Both cards start with a Basic Black card base, which gives a strong, modern frame and really helps the lighter elements stand out. I’ve used Boho Vibes DSP as the main background layer, choosing two different patterns to show how versatile this paper pack is.

The focal images are stamped using the Big Little Things stamp set and cut out with the Perennial Postage dies. I love the postage-style edge these dies create – they instantly add detail without needing any extra embellishments.

To give the cards a pop of colour, I’ve layered the focal panels onto Melon Mambo cardstock. This bright accent lifts the monochrome palette and adds a fun, playful feel that suits the animal images perfectly.

Finishing Touches

The sentiments are taken from the Greetings to You stamp set, which is a go-to for me when I want something clean and easy to read. They pair beautifully with the images without overpowering the design.

Overall, these cards are great examples of how you can mix bold cardstock, patterned paper, and simple stamping to create eye-catching designs that work for lots of occasions – from thank you cards to congratulations and beyond.

Why I Love This Stamp Set

What I really enjoy about Big Little Things is how adaptable it is. You can keep things minimal like I’ve done here, or step it up with colouring, embossing, or extra layers. It’s a brilliant set to have on hand when you need a quick card that still feels special.
