Handmade Winnie the Pooh Themed Christmas Cards {Brand New from Impression Obsession}

I grew up with Winnie the Pooh sheets and bedroom decor when I was tiny, so perhaps that's why I've loved Pooh, particularly classic Pooh, my whole life. As you can imagine, I was thrilled to see these brand new stamps from Impression Obsession! Even better, these stamps put a warm, holiday spin on some of my most-loved childhood characters and it's been fun to craft up some handmade Christmas cards with Piglet, Eeyore, and the crew from the Hundred Acre Woods!

Even better, these stamps put a warm, holiday spin on some of my most-loved childhood characters and it's been fun to craft up some handmade Christmas cards with Piglet, Eeyore, and the crew from the Hundred Acre Woods! This first card is just simple, simple sweetness with Piglet, Eeyore and their Christmas tree. This card is flat and perfect for mailing, and if you like to color, you'll love mass-producing this card idea. Two stamps, a bit of color, a thin matting and you're DONE. I used markers to color both of today's cards, but a loose splash of watercolor would also look beautiful on this simple card.

I did a bit more layering and cutting on this card, featuring the Piglet Candy Cane stamp set. It was fun to create more of a collage feel. I used the coordinating paper pad for that awesome book page print. And corrugated cardstock always adds a great bit of texture. Did you catch those highlights done with a gel pen after I colored? It's always the perfect finishing touch to colored images.

I've never wanted to invest in expensive markers, and I have been REALLY happy with this 100-marker set from Caliart. They're a great price, there's a good assortment of colors, and they work really well for me.
