The Tim Holtz STAMPtember 2026 Collaboration stamp sets (yes, sets plural!) are absolutely spectacular. The loosely sketched images give so much room for interpretation—and in my opinion, are amazing for coloring because they also are extremely forgiving since your coloring does not have to be perfect.
In this video, I am using the Season of Wonder and Season of Magic sets to create 3 cards. Each use a watercolor stamping technique, and I showcase different ways to add low-bulk bows to each one (which make them all easy to mail!).
I also used some fun Simon Says Stamp and Tim Holtz products on these cards. To create the frames and panels, I reached for Simon Says Stamp dies: Hand-Tied Frames and Petal Point Frames. The large Timeless Peace on Earth sentiment is also a new die from Simon Says Stamp.
Tim Holtz has some amazing stencils that I reach for time and again, including the Sparkle and Sparkle Fade. I also used his Modern Festive dies to create the large snow pieces on the cardinal card.
For the watercolor stamping, I used Distress Watercolor Pencils. In the video, I will show you the technique I applied to color in the stamps—it’s so easy and gives amazing results in no time!
