Our Make It Market Mini Kits are designed for those who love the idea of Betsy Veldman's popular kits, but are a bit more budget conscious. As another perk, these new kits will NOT be limited edition, they will be a regular item carried in our store. These will be released throughout the year randomly, not on a set schedule, so it will be a surprise each month as to whether or not there will be a new one to collect! Now a little bit more of the Make It Market Mini Kit being released this month, Holiday Hugs!
- Holiday Hugs stamp set & index label
- Holiday Hugs die collection
- Holiday Hugs stencil (4-1/4" x 5-1/2")
- Holiday Hugs paper collection (9 sheets, 4-1/4" x 5-1/2")
Here is a closer look at each of the individual items in this kit!
The Holiday Hugs stamp set contains some great basics for creating the characters themselves, as well as fun tags and labels to go along with your special packaged treats.
Betsy created a die collection to coordinate with the stamps, many of the dies also coordinate with images found on the papers. Betsy included outlines on the sheets so you can easily place the dies on top and run through your die-cutting machine for perfect cuts every time.
This kit includes a total of 17 dies:
- Mustache: 5/8" x 1 11/16"
- Hugs: 1 5/16" x 2 1/8"
- From: 11/16" x 1 1/4"
- Large Circle: 2 3/16" x 2 3/16"
- Holly Leaf: 5/8" x 7/8"
- Snowflake: 7/8" x 13/16"
- Pom-Pom: 11/16" x 11/16"
- Beard: 1 1/12" x 2 1/2"
- Mittens: 1 1/4" x 1"
- Star: 7/16" x 7/16"
- Small Circles: 7/16" x 7/16"
- Heart: 7/16" x 3/8"
- To: 11/16" x 3/4"
- Berries: 11/16" x 11/16"
- Hat Band: 1" x 2 1/8"
- Nose: 3/16" x 1/2"
- Hat: 1 7/8" x 2 3/4"
To go along with her stamp set and dies, Betsy has designed a paper collection that draws from the images found in the stamp set and stencils. The detail is just awesome! The Holiday Hugs paper collection contains 9 (4-1/4" x 5-1/2") sheets, 1 sheet each of 9 designs and it is printed on our signature white linen paper. Coordinates with the following colors -
For fun design options and pops of color, this stencil can be used to add patterns to the clothing/accessories that the characters are wearing! As you know, stencils are so quick and easy to use, so you will be able to create an entire wardrobe for your Holiday Hugs characters in no time at all! The stencil measures 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" total.
All of the items in the Holiday Hugs Kit are exclusive to this kit and will not be available for sale separately, except for the paper (see details below). The price breakdown of each item is included to help you see the value in this amazing kit!

lOVE the Mini Kit: Holiday Hugs along with the tag die. I think my favorite is the snowman and loved what Melissa did with hers. I’m envisioning Santa’s being used on the Christmas eve table…maybe holding the napkins in some kind of a fun fold or maybe holding treats. I could also see the snowman on a hot chocolate bar…my mind is in high gear creating already!

My family and I have started a tradition of making hot cocoa in the crock pot before we head out for a ski or snowshoe trip. I make it from scratch with milk, cocoa powder, brown sugar, cinnamon and a vanilla bean. The magic ingredient is the cinnamon- it thickens the cocoa as it simmers to a nice creamy consistency. It’s lovely to come home to a nice hot cup of hot cocoa after a long and chilly trip in the snow!
Kelly Fehr says
The hugs are such a fun new idea. I always put little gifts on my Christmas breakfast table, and these will help me make them adorable for the grandkids.
