Noel Tidings Bundle

Hi again everyone,

For today’s Christmas card I have used the Noel Tidings Bundle (#168458) which includes the Noel Tidings stamp set (#1684490 and Noel Tidings dies (#168457).

I cut the Pretty Peacock card (#150886) and Lost Lagoon card (#133686) for the wreaths with a Noel Tidings die. These were attached to the Neutral Noel Specialty Designer Series Paper (#168448) with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The card front was attached to the Cherry Cobbler base card (#121681).

The berries and pinecones are from the Noel Tidings stamp set. I stamped the berries with Secret Sea ink (#165285) onto Cherry Cobbler card. The pinecones were stamped with Pecan Pie ink (#161665) onto Very Vanilla card (#166785). The bow from the Elegantly Wrapped stamp set (#168474) was stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink (#147083) and cut with a die from the Elegantly Wrapped dies (#168480).

“Seasons Greetings” is from the Noel Tidings stamp set and also stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink and cut with a Noel Tidings die.

The berries were attached with Mini Glue Dots, and I used Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) for the sentiment, bow & pinecones.

Magical Christmas Hot Foil Dies

Hi stamping friends,

For this pretty Christmas card I have used Hot Gold foiling for the sentiment as well as the leafy images around the circle.

The card front is from the Neutral Noel Specialty Designer Series Paper (#168448) and matted with Mossy Meadow card (#133683) then attached to the Basic White base card (#166781).

The sentiment is from the Magical Christmas Hot Foil dies (#170592) and the leafy circular image is from the Framed & Fabulous Hot Foil dies (#170578). I used Gold Stampin’ Hot Foil Rolls (#170066) for both of these.

The scalloped circle was cut with the cutting dies from the Framed & Fabulous Hot Foil dies. This scalloped circle was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and the sentiment was attached on top with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The gold Flower Accents (#165171) were added to complete the card.

Welcome Noel Bundle

Hello,

I have used the Welcome Noel Bundle (#168465) on this Christmas card.

The trees from the Welcome Noel stamp set (#168462) were stamped with Garden Green ink (#147089) onto Basic White card (#166781). The “snow” from the Graceful Evergreen Deer stamp set (#170565) was stamped with Balmy Blue ink (#147105), stamped off for a lighter image.

The houses from the Welcome Noel dies (#168464) were cut from Balmy Blue card (#147007), Lemon Lolly card (#161729) and Crumb Cake card (#121685). The houses were attached to the Basic White die cuts. The blue house was taped to the card and the other houses were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

“Merry Christmas” is from the retired Curvy Christmas stamp set and cut with a retired Beautiful Butterflies die. “From our home to yours” is from the Noel Tidings stamp set (#168449) and cut with a Noel Tidings die (#168457). Both sentiments were stamped with Garden Green ink and attached to the card with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The card front was matted with Garden Green card (#108605), then attached to the Basic White base card.

I added Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) to the “snow” for a bit of shimmer.

Graceful Evergreen Deer stamp set

Welcome again everyone,

White and gold always looks elegant and on this card I have heat embossed the tree with Gold Embossing Powder.

The tree is from the Graceful Evergreen Deer stamp set (#170565) and I stamped it with VersaMark (#102283) and added the Gold powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powders (#165678) and set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). I used Lost Lagoon ink (#161678) under the tree. This was matted with Gold Foil Sheet (#132622).

The Basic White card front (#166781) was dry embossed with the Timeless Herringbone Embossing Folder (#169736). This is a sneak peek of this folder which will be available in November in the Online Exclusives. The card front was also matted with Gold Foil Sheet, and attached to the Basic White base card.

“Merry Christmas” is from a retired stamp set and stamped with Lost Lagoon ink. A retired Textured Notes die cut the sentiment.

I used a die from the Stylish Shapes Dies (#159183) to cut the banner under the sentiment. I cut this in half and attached it to be able to see more of the banner on each end. The sentiment & tree were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

All Wrapped Up Specialty Designer Series Paper

Hello friends,

This beautiful bouquet is from the All Wrapped Up Specialty Designer Series Paper (#168473).

I fussy cut the bouquet. Some of the images on other designs in the DSP pack have co-ordinating dies in the Wrapped Greenery dies (#168486) and they also co-ordinate with the Wrapped Greenery stamp set (#168484).

I stamped the leaves from the stamp set using Peaceful Pine ink (#167679) onto the Basic White card front. I stamped off for the middle image to get a lighter image. The card front was matted with Real Red card (#106578) and attached to the Basic White base card.

I cut the label from Frosted Pinecones dies (#168371), then dry embossed it with the Softly Woven Embossing Folder (#168466) and taped it to the card. The bouquet was attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

The sentiment is from the Pretty Poinsettia stamp set (#168140), stamped with Real Red ink (#147084) and cut with a Noel Tidings die (#168457). Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) were used to attach the sentiment.

The embellishments are the Adhesive-Backed Christmas Berries (#168549).

A Stitched Season Designer Series Paper

Hello again & welcome,

I’m back from a quick trip away to see family. Today I am making Christmas cards and I have used A Stitched Season Designer Series Paper (#168223) for this card.

I cut the squares of the DSP and attached them to the Basic White card front (#166781). Using a die from the Stitched Stocking dies (#168230), I cut the red & gold “stars” from the Timeless Metallic Specialty Designer Series Paper (#168548). I used Mini Glue Dots (#103683) to attach the red die cuts and Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108) to attach the Gold die cuts.

“Merry Christmas” is from the Stitched Stocking stamp set (#168224) and I stamped this with Real Red ink (#147084). I cut the sentiment and the Real Red card (#106578) with the Stitched Stocking dies. I attached the sentiment onto the Real Red card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

The card front was attached to the Basic White base card.
