Dear Bloggers,

Harvey for Christmas: Tim Holtz Colorize Soldiers and Festive Wreath Cards Part 1

Dear Bloggers,
As regular readers of my blog may remember, last Christmas I made lots—and lots—of cards using the wonderful Tim Holtz Colorize Harvey die set. In fact, I made so many little Harveys that I eventually ran out of time! Only my favourite cards were completed and given away, while the unfinished pieces were packed away for another day.





Now that I have started slowly working on my Christmas cards for 2026, I came across the partly finished remains of those cards. I pulled everything apart, keeping the pieces I still liked and tossing the rest into the bin.

Then I thought, “Honestly, I have already made sooooo many Harveys. I am just going to throw all of these away!”

Of course, by the next day I had changed my mind. I rescued various pieces from the bin and began turning them into completely new Christmas cards.





For this first series, I placed a single Harvey in front of a beautiful wreath die from Impression Obsession. I love how the detailed little soldier looks framed by the foliage, flowers and festive embellishments.

I gathered supplies from all over my craft room to decorate the cards, including layered bows, bells, Christmas charms, black pearls, flowers with candy-like centres, assorted rhinestones, white paint, imitation snow, patterned papers from my stash and plenty of gold cardstock.








Each card is slightly different, but together they form a wonderfully festive series of Single Wreath Harveys. They are detailed, dimensional and perhaps just a little bit over the top—which is exactly how I like my Christmas cards!

This is Part 1...please see the following post, Part 2

These cards are only one part of my latest Harvey collection. Be sure to look for the coordinating Harvey Trio cards featuring three little soldiers together.

Dear Bloggers,

Here are six more big geese created with the Concord & 9th Silly Goose clear photopolymer stamp set and coordinating dies.

Some of these big characters are proudly flashing a little bling on their cute boots and party hats, which adds even more fun and personality to the designs. The touches of sparkle catch the light beautifully and give the cards a cheerful party feel without overwhelming the playful stamped images.

Dear Bloggers,

Now it is time for some more of the little geese from the Concord & 9th Silly Goose clear photopolymer stamp set and coordinating dies to have some fun of their own.

Three of these adorable little geese are sitting together in a puddle, happily declaring their love with a cheerful honk. The puddle creates such a playful little scene, while the honking sentiment gives the card plenty of personality and charm.








The other four little geese are bringing flowers and balloons to a birthday celebration. I love how the tiny floral details turn these playful geese into sweet little gift bearers, ready to make someone’s birthday extra special.
















The smaller geese in the Concord & 9th Silly Goose set are wonderful for creating groups, scenes and character-filled handmade cards. Their different poses make it easy to tell a little story, whether they are splashing in puddles, sharing their love or arriving with flowers for a birthday.

Party Hats, Pretty Papers and Big Silly Geese Post 4 of 6

Handmade cards using the Concord & 9th Silly Goose stamp set and dies, featuring large geese, curved sentiments, party hats, bows, water puddles, grass and patterned paper backgrounds.

Dear Bloggers,

Don’t you love the way the stamped sentiments curve around the back of the large goose? It is such a clever feature of the Concord & 9th Silly Goose clear photopolymer stamp set, and it makes the greeting feel like part of the design rather than a separate element.

For these handmade cards, I paired the large goose from the Concord & 9th Silly Goose stamp set and coordinating dies with a selection of pretty patterned papers. The soft colours and decorative patterns create a cheerful background while allowing the wonderfully expressive goose to remain the main feature.



Party hats, sweet little bows, puddles of water and tufts of grass—these cards really do have it all! I had fun combining the different Silly Goose accessories to give each card its own playful personality. The puddles and grass help create a complete little scene, while the party hats and bows make the geese look ready for a celebration.

The large goose is ideal for handmade birthday cards, celebration cards and friendship cards, particularly when combined with the curved sentiments included in the set. Changing the patterned papers and small accessories makes it easy to create a coordinated group of cards in which every design is slightly different.

Dear Bloggers,

The Concord & 9th Silly Goose clear photopolymer stamp set and coordinating dies include one large goose and several smaller geese, giving you plenty of options for creating fun and character-filled handmade cards. For this set of cards, I chose to give the big guy centre stage.




To create the layered background, I also used the Concord & 9th Hillside clear photopolymer stamp set and coordinating die. The curved hillside pieces frame the goose beautifully and add extra shape and movement to each design. I particularly love how the sentiments have been curved to fit neatly inside the die-cut hillside sections. It is such a clever detail and makes the greeting feel like a natural part of the scene.





The combination of the playful large goose, curved stamped sentiments, layered hillsides, lace and flowers gives these handmade cards a lovely balance of whimsy and vintage-inspired charm. The Concord & 9th Silly Goose stamps and dies work beautifully with the Hillside set and can be adapted for birthday cards, friendship cards, thank-you cards and many other cheerful occasions.
