Season Of Green & Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper

Hello friends,

I can’t believe it is already November, so now the countdown is on to Christmas. I hope you are well on the way to making all your Christmas cards. I have another Christmas card today, using the Season Of Green & Gold 12”x12” Specialty Designer Series Paper (#164324).

I attached the 2 pieces of Designer Paper to the Very Vanilla card front (#106550), then matted it with Old Olive card (#106576). This was taped to the Very Vanilla base card.

I stamped the sentiment from the Christmas Labels stamp set (#164286) with Old Olive ink (#147090) and cut this with the co-ordinating die from the Christmas Labels dies (#164100).

The leaf and bells are from the same Designer Paper. The leaf was cut with a die from the Golden Greenery dies (#164116) and the bells were fussy cut.

The sentiment & bells were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430) and the leaf with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The embellishments are from the Faux Glass Dots (#164060).

Winterly Tree Tops Bundle

Hello Stamping Friends,

The Winterly Tree Tops Bundle (#164066) has been used for the bird & leaves on this card. The bundle consists of the Winterly Tree Tops stamp set (#164184) and the Winterly Tree Tops dies (#164065).

The bird was stamped with Tuxedo Black Memento ink (#132708) and the leaves with Pretty Peacock ink (#150083). The Stampin’ Blends used to colour the bird are Lemon Lolly (#161673), Crumb Cake (#154882) & Pumpkin Pie (#154897). Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blends (#154880) were used for the berries and Lost Lagoon (#161680) and Pretty Peacock (#161676) for the leaves. Pecan Pie (#161674) was used for the branch.

The bird, stamped leaves and other leaves are all cut with the Winterly Tree Tops dies. I used Pretty Peacock card (#150886), Lost Lagoon card (#133686) and Oxidised Copper Specialty Designer Series Paper (#161639) for the small die cut leaves.

The sentiment from the Christmas Labels stamp set (#164296) was stamped with Pretty Peacock ink (#150083) and cut with the co-ordinating die from the Christmas Labels dies (#164100).

I dry embossed the Basic White card front (#159228) with the Birch Wood Embossing Folder (#164069), then matted with Pretty Peacock card. This was attached to the Basic White base card.

The bird & small leaves were attached to the card with Mini Glue Dots (#103683). The stamped leaves and sentiment were attached with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430).

Regal Flora Bundle

Welcome my friends,

The Regal Flora Bundle (#164034) probably isn't designed for Christmas cards but I thought I would use it for this no-traditional Christmas card but using traditional Christmas colours.

I stamped the flowers from the Regal Flora stamp set (#164157) with Cherry Cobbler ink (#147083). The leaves were stamped with Pretty Peacock ink (#150083), then flowers and leaves were cut with the Regal Flora dies (#164033). This stamp set & dies are included in the Regal Flora Bundle.

“Love & Joy” is from the Christmas Labels stamp set (#164296). This was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and I used the Gold from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powder (#165678), then set it with the Heat Tool (#129056). The sentiment was cut with one of the Christmas Labels dies (#164100). This stamp set & dies are part of the Christmas Labels Bundle (#164101).

I matted the Regal Distressed Patterns Specialty Paper (#164037) with the Gold Foil Sheet (#132622) and attached it to the Basic White base card (#159228).

The sentiment was taped to the card front. I used Mini Glue Dots (#103683) to attach the leaves & the flowers on the right. The other flowers were attached with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals (#144108). The gold embellishments are from a retired pack.

Nests Of Winter Designer Series Paper

Hello friends,

The Nests Of Winter Designer Series Paper (#164183) is where you will find these birds. There is a co-ordinating die in the Winterly Tree Tops dies (#164065) which I used to cut them.

I cut the detailed leafy frame with dies from the Citrus Blooms dies (#163294) using Garden Green card (#108605) which was backed with Adhesive Sheet (#152334). I also cut the Nests Of Winter Designer Series Paper for the background with the die and attached the leaves to it. This was then attached to the Basic White base card (#159228).

The sentiment from the Christmas Labels stamp set (#164296) was stamped with Cherry Cobbler ink (#147083). A Christmas Labels dies (#164100) was used to cut the sentiment.

The birds & sentiment were attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). I added Clear Wink Of Stella (#141897) to the birds.
