Christmas Lights

Hi friends,

A simple Christmas card using the Christmas Lights Bundle (#159961) and the Brightest Glow Bundle (#159552).

The DSP is from the Boughs Of Holly Designer Series Paper (#159600) this was attached to the Basic White base card (#159228). I used one of the dies from the Labels Aglow dies (#159551) on the Distressed Gold Specialty Paper (#159237). This was attached to the DSP.

The tree was stamped with Evening Evergreen ink (#155576) and cut with a Twinkling Lights Die (#159541). This was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). 

The sentiment from the Brightest Glow stamp set (#159542) was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and embossed with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155555) then set with the Heat Tool (#129056). This was also cut with a Labels Aglow die.

I used the White Pearlized Enamel Effects Basics (#156310) to add the “decorations” to the tree, Even though this is white, the green colour from the ink has shown through to give a lovely subtle green colour.

I can’t believe it is already November and Christmas is just around the corner. I hope you have started (or perhaps you have finished) your Christmas cards. I still have some to make but hope they will all be finished soon.

Christmas Lights

Hello stamping friends,

An easy but effective card using the Christmas Lights Bundle (#159961).

I stamped the Christmas tree from the Christmas Lights stamp set (#159538). This was stamped with VersaMark (#102283) and heat embossed with White Stampin’ Emboss Powder (#155554). This was set with the Heat Tool (#129056). 

I then placed the piece of Basic White card (#159228) on the left side of the tree and placed the die in place as shown below.

I carefully removed the white card with the die in place and cut it with the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (#149653). This removes part of the Christmas tree. I then dry embossed the white card with the Fern 3D Embossing Folder (#158804) and attached it to the card. The card front was attached to the Basic White base card.

The sentiment from Brightest Glow Stamp set (#159542) was stamped with Real Red ink (#147084). This was cut with a die from Labels Aglow (#159551). I cut another circle from the Stylish Shapes dies (#159183) and attached this to the die cut sentiment. This was attached to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals (#104430). A silver Festive Pearl (#159963) was added to the top of the tree.

This technique could be done with many stamped images with co-ordinating dies.
