Classic Christmas Designer Series Paper

Hello,

I usually have so many scraps of Designer Paper, which of course I don’t want to throw away, and often wonder what I am going to do with them. Well, on today’s card I have used some strips of the Classic Christmas Designer Series Paper (#155969).

I attached the 4 strips of designer paper to the Whisper White card front (#106549). The easiest way to do this is have the pieces longer than needed and cut level with the card front after they are taped to the card.

I attached a piece of Cherry Cobbler card (#121681) to the Foam Adhesive Sheets (#152815), then cut “Merry Christmas” with the Word Wishes Dies (#149629). These Foam Adhesive Sheets have adhesive on both sides and can be cut with scissors or open dies and great when you want to add dimension easily to smaller pieces.

The holly leaves are from the Christmas Gleaming stamp set (#150464) and stamped with Shaded Spruce ink (#147088). These were fussy cut before attaching to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I added the Cherry Cobbler Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#150457) to the “berries”. The edges of the card front were sponged with Cherry Cobbler ink (#147083) before attaching it to the Whisper White base card.

Hopefully you have finished all your Christmas cards now, but if not this is an easy one to make.

Enjoy your weekend!!

Christmas Gleaming

Hello again,

If you need a quick and easy last minute Christmas card this card is just for you.

I used Whisper White card (#106549) and Wrapped In Plaid 6”x6” Specialty Designer Series Paper (#149596). I stamped the baubles from the Christmas Gleaming stamp set (#c150464), using Cherry Cobbler ink (#147083) and punched them with the co-ordinating punch from the  Gleaming Ornaments Punch Pack (#150647). “Christmas Cheer” is from the Itty Bitty Christmas Stamp set (#150513) and also stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink. The Whisper White card was cut with the Stitched Rectangles Dies (#148551), then this was embossed with the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder (#151775). I attached the baubles with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108).

Yes that was quick and easy.

Basic Pattern Decorative Masks

Hi,

The Basic Pattern Decorative Masks (#150697) are great for creating textured backgrounds with the Embossing Pastes. You can also sponge coloured inks for a great effect.

The ribbon is Purple Posy Scalloped Linen Ribbon (#149706). I stamped the greeting from the Peaceful Boughs stamp set (#c150541) with Gorgeous Grape ink (#147099). The 2 outer baubles were stamped with the same ink and the other with Highland Heather ink (#147103). These baubles are in the Christmas Gleaming stamp set (#c150464) and punched with one of  the co-ordinating punches from the Gleaming Ornaments Punch Pack (#150647). The sentiment and the Gorgeous Grape card were punched with the Tailored Tag Punch (#145667). Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) were used to attach the greeting and the middle bauble to the card. The rhinestones are from the Noble Peacock Rhinestones (#149494).

Christmas Gleaming fancy fold card

Hello friends,

I like a fancy fold card and this is an easy one.

I used the A4 Thick Cardstock in Whisper White (#140490) for the base card, measuring 15cm x 10.5cm. Then I added a piece of So Saffron card (#108611) on top. This measured 19.5cm x 10cm and scored at 14.5cm. The Real Red card (#106578) is 7.5cm x 22cm and scored at 11cm. I used Whisper White card (#106549) which was cut with a Stitched Rectangle Die (#148551) and attached to the outside and inside of the red card. Merry Christmas from the Perfectly Plaid stamp set (#p149418) was stamped with Real Red ink (#147084). I stamped the image on the inside, as well as the 2 baubles with Golden Glitz Delicata Metallic Ink (#150711). These 3 images are from the Christmas Gleaming stamp set (#c150464). The 2 baubles are punched with the punches from the Gleaming Ornaments Punch Pack (#150647) and the smaller one was attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). I added the Holiday Rhinestone Basic Jewels (#150457) to the baubles. The Designer Series Paper on the flap is from the Wrapped In Plaid 6” x6” Specialty Designer Series Paper (#149596).

I hope you have had the chance to see the new Holiday Catalogue by now. If you live in Australia and would like one please contact me and I will get one to you. 

These beautiful baubles are from the Christmas Gleaming stamp set (#c150464).

I stamped the baubles with Real Red ink (#147084), Garden Green ink (#147089) and the new Golden Glitz Delicata Metallic Ink (#150711). Co-ordinating with this stamp set is the Gleaming Ornaments Punch Pack (#150647) which includes 2 punches. I punched the Gold baubles with the matching punch and attached these to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). Merry Christmas was also stamped with Real Red ink and the spots were stamped with the gold ink. The card front is Whisper White (#106549) and the base card is Real Red (#106578).

The Christmas Gleaming stamp set and the Gleaming Ornaments punch pack are available in a bundle - the Christmas Gleaming Bundle (#c153006), which gives you a 10% saving.

Have a great weekend.
