Hello and welcome to the November SweetMissDaisy Release—available now at SweetMissDaisy Designs on Etsy!
This month’s collection is overflowing with festive inspiration — five beautifully illustrated stamp sets, one charming paper pack, and a coordinating notepad that ties it all together. I had the best time creating four very different cards, each showcasing something special from the release.
🌸 Holly Branch Elegance
Let’s start with the timeless beauty of the Holly Branch stamp set. I wanted to echo the look of the coordinating notepad, so I softly brushed Vintage Photo Distress Ink around the edges to create a gently aged background.
Using images from both Holly Branch and the Mixed Media set, I built layers of texture with a light hand — I especially love the “25” and the distressed round postage image.
The sentiment banner is popped up with ribbon for a touch of dimension, and inside I tucked a piece of the Be Merry notepad for a coordinated finish.
❄️ Peaceful Winter Scene
The Winter Scene stamp set captures that serene, vintage look I love. It includes postmarks and mixed-media accents, but this time I let the main image shine on its own.
The background is patterned paper from the Rustic Winter Paper Pack, and I added the simple but powerful “Peace on Earth” sentiment. It’s such an elegant and tranquil combination.
🍬 Sweet Gingerbread Treats
Now for something a little playful! The Gingerbread Cookies set is pure delight. I stamped the gingerbread girl onto a tag, then paired it with a kraft background stamped with the Threads background stamp.
Pink and brown is one of my favorite cozy combos, so I added a “Thank You – You’re So Sweet” banner and a few pink peppermint die-cuts to finish. This one just makes me smile every time!
🎄 Mixed Media Christmas Collage
Finally, I had fun mixing and matching across sets for this collage-style card. The Mixed Media set takes the lead, but I also brought in Decorate the Tree for the sentiment, Holly Branch for the “25” and circle, and Winter Scene for the postmark image.
I used the Waffle Flower Postage Collage Die to divide the space into blocks and filled each section with softly sponged red, green, and brown inks. A couple of bows finish the design.
Even though the Mixed Media set isn’t strictly holiday-themed, it layers beautifully for Christmas projects!
Each of these stamp sets and papers can be found at SweetMissDaisy Designs on Etsy—and I think you’ll fall in love with their mix of rustic charm and timeless elegance.
Happy stamping, and may your holidays be filled with creative joy!
