With Christmas just around the corner, we were very excited this week to release the Family Heirloom Printer’s Tray along with more Christmas card ideas!
Peace and Joy
This card is a great example of using stamps that you already have on hand for other purposes. The ornaments on this card were created using a balloon image stamp. By stamping the balloons in traditional Christmas colors and turning them upside down, they make great ornaments, allowing for your stamps to be used in various or not tradional ways.
You can view a video on how I created this Peace and Joy card below.

Thank you for sharing this beautiful card. I love the little 3 D ornaments.
Thank you for the opportunity to win 1-year of PCL.
What a wonderful design, beautiful color combo and innovative way to use your stamps. I may have to start turning all of mine upside down to see what else they could be ;-). Nice work, Tracy.
This is beautiful; I love the little ornaments!
