Three card ideas for Humble Home bundle from Stampin’ Up!®

Humble Home is the Stampin’ Up!® stamp set I have been waiting for. So many times I have had to compromise when making a new home card – but no longer. 

Now I have a versatile set that works for new homes, thank yous and Christmas all in one.

Naturally, after wanting a set like this for so long and putting the Humble Home bundle (164094) at the top of my wish list, I forgot to order it. But I have it now and have have used Humble Home stamp set and matching punch to create three cards. They’re all linked by a simple white card base but they are all very different.

I wanted a rustic country vibe for this card so used some Night of Navy gingham paper from A Little Bit Festive Designer Series Paper pack (164107) as my base strip and as a starting point for my colour combination of Night of Navy, Copper Clay and Crumb Cake.

I stamped the house bricks in Crumb Cake, stamped off for a paler image, the roof in Copper Clay and the door and windows in Night of Navy. 

Tip: Stamp the roof first, then punch out the image for perfect positioning. Then stamp the house front and details after you've punched.

The Humble Home punch includes a tiny heart which I punched from Copper Clay to add to the front. 

Behind the house is a swirl of Natural Tones Linen Thread in Copper Clay (164071) and a cute wooden Textural Element (159966) to complete the rustic effect.

The greeting comes from Simply Said (163756). There is a thank you in the Humble Home stamp set but it was the wrong shape for my project. 

My second Humble Home card brings out the Textural Elements again, this time stained Garden Green using a Blending Brush.

I've made a cute little hill of A Little Bit Festive Designer Series Paper, after colouring the white bits in using Garden Green ink and a blending brush.

Below this is a strip of the same paper, showing the reverse side for colour. 

 

The image is another one from the Humble Home stamp set, stamped in black on white and coloured in using Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers. 

 

Tying it all together is a piece of Garden Green Natural Tones Linen Thread, and it’s finished off with a Real Red greeting from the Humble Home stamp set. 

 

Finally, I have a really simple card which you could make with just the Humble Home punch and any Stampin’ Up!® sentiment stamp set. 

I punched three houses; two from Basic White cardstock and one from Crumb Cake. I used one of the hearts on the Crumb Cake house and punched two more from Copper Clay to add to the white houses.

They are mounted on a strip of Basic White cardstock, with a Crumb Cake mat, and it’s finished off with a Copper Clay greeting stamped with Sweetly Scripted (163600). 

I hope you like my Humble Home cards and are inspired to add the stamps and punch to your craft stash. As you can see from the image, this is a versatile stamp set featuring a good range of sentiments for many occasions.
