Wonderful Season
I wanted to show you how versatile Stampin' Up!s Designer Series Paper can be. I chose the gorgeous yellow rose print from the Flowers For Every Season, and turned it into a Christmas card!
I started with a Basic Black card base 11" x 5 1/2" and scored at 3 3/8" from each end to create the tri-fold. To maximize my 6 x 6 piece of DSP I cut the front panel at 3 1/8" x 5 1/4" and the inside flap is the leftover piece cut to 2 7/8" x 5 1/4".
The belly band is Basic Black C/S cut to 1" x 9". Starting at the front of the card, wrap the band around the card ending in the front. Remove, crease score lines for a neater look, then glue the ends together. You don't want to wrap the belly band too tight or it will be difficult to get on and off of the card.
Die cut a Basic Black C/S Label from the Tasteful Labels Die. Attach to the Belly Band using Dimensionals. This will cover up the seam of the belly band.
Die cut a Whisper White C/S Label using a smaller label from the Tasteful Labels Die. Stamp sentiment in Memento Black Ink from the Poinsettia Petals Stamp Set. Attach to the Basic Black C/S Label using Dimensional's.
Die cut 2 medium poinsettias using Bumble Bee C/S, 1 Basic Black C/S centre and 2 Basic Black C/S Sprigs. Attach to belly band/labels using Multi-Purpose Glue.
Using a Dark Daffodil Delight Blend, colour 1 Rhinestone. Add to the center of the poinsettia. Slide belly band onto card.
Happy Stamping and Creating!

Arlene, you are SO clever! I would have never thought of using this color combination for a Christmas card but it's absolutely stunning! TFS
