Hi crafty friends! I'm delighted to be joining Michelle Lupton for her series, Case me a Christmas Card 2026! This series features eleven creative hops in November - four on YouTube and seven on Instagram - where we CASE (Copy And Selectively Edit) cards from fellow crafters.
The designer I am CASEing is the talented Yoonsun Hur 💖
Be sure to scroll down to see her card, my supply list and a complete sponsor list!!
and here is Yoonsun's card:
 I love the overall layout of her card and the colorful flowers! I kept the layout and feel of the stitched background using the Pretty Pink Posh Argyle Pierced Plate. I turned her lovely Mother's Day card into a Christmas card using my favorite Christmas flower set Holiday Blooms die set and kept the double sentiment look the with the Spellbinders Merry Sentiment stamp and die set.
I love how this turned out.
