The holiday season is right around the corner and the team at Ink to Paper is excited to create and share projects. Fall is the season of gratitude, which leads right into the Christmas season of giving. We wanted to dedicate the month of November to a marathon of creative inspiration using our holiday themed stamps and dies. Crafting during the holiday season is very popular, and our collection of stamps and dies will surely inspire you to create along with us throughout the month.
Get ready to learn some fun facts about the company, designers, and of course amazing new ways to create cards, gift tags, and more!
Let’s take a closer look at this simple, versatile product collection we are featuring for today’s CreateAthon! Kelly Lunceford and Melissa Bickford have created beautiful Christmas cards with this adorable set.

“I love decorating for Christmas and inviting guests to my home to share in the joys of the season. The new Border Bling: String Lights paired with this festive sentiment from the new Season’s Greetings set invoke those same cheery feelings!”
“The woodgrain sign images from It’s A Sign: Wood Frames make the perfect backdrop for any project. You could stamp your images and sentiment directly inside the frame or choose to embellish around it with beautiful flowers, like I did for today! And creating with a crisp white background, and just a few pops of color, truly makes that frame stand out!“
