Welcome to the Stampin’ Pretty Pals’ Blog Hop!
This month’s theme is Winter Wonderland. The Stampin’ Pretty Pals Community hopes to inspire you with Winter Wonderland creations! You will find the lineup at the end of my post to help you “hop” along from Pal to Pal.
The birds from the Stampin’ Up Winterly Tree Tops Bundle are an absolute joy to craft with, especially when paired with Stampin’ Blends. Their detailed designs make them perfect for coloring, allowing you to experiment with shades and gradients to bring them to life. Whether you’re going for a soft, natural palette or a bold, vibrant look, the Stampin’ Blends’ smooth application ensures your creativity shines through.
Beautiful Birds: Stampin’ Up! Winterly Tree Tops Bundle
The Winterly Tree Tops Bundle is a must-have for all your Christmas and winter-themed crafting projects! Delight your loved ones with charming bird designs and elegant winter sprig accents. Layer the sprig border behind one or two birds, and pair it with a heartfelt sentiment to create a beautiful card for Christmas, a thoughtful thank-you, or a “thinking of you” message.

Lovely textures Stesha! Have fun putting your own stamp on the holiday season Pal!
Beautiful Stesha! I love the elegant white background with the gorgeous pops of color from the birds.
Wonderful White Winter Wonderland with a pop of feathers. Love it, Stesha!
I just ordered the embossing folder for that project! I also made two of your cards using your tutorial for Artful Amaryllis. I wasn’t going to get that set, but after seeing your card I just had to get it! And the good news after being sick for 9 months we found out what was wrong. I will be limited on what I do, but its a lung disease and not cancer. I will know what has to be done on January 3rd. Thanks for your inspiration!
