Now, onto todays card!

I used the beautiful Traditions Of St. Nick Designer Series Paper to be my focus. I simply fussy cut out one of the St. Nick image from the DSP, added a few Deckled Circle Dies and some dry embossing then I finished it up with some bling.

Directions:

Cut a card base of Cherry Cobbler Card Stock, 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" and scored at 4 1/4".

Cut a piece of Mossy Meadow C/S to 3 3/4" x 5" and a piece of the Traditions Of St. Nick Designer Series Paper to 3 1/2" x 4 3/4". I used a piece that has musical notes on it. Glue these two pieces together and emboss using the Stars At Night Embossing Folder then attach to the card base. 

Die cut one Cherry Cobbler C/S and one Very Vanilla C/S circle using the Deckled Circle Dies. The sizes I used are 

2 7/16" and 2 3/4". Glue these two circles together then attach them to the card front. Splatter Wink Of Stella all over the card front.

Take some of the Gold Cord from the Simply Elegant Trim and attach it to the Very Vanilla circle in a circular pattern. I put down some Tear And Tape onto the circle and this holds the cord in place.

Fussy cut out one of the St. Nick images from the Traditions Of St. Nick DSP. Attach it over the gold cord using Dimensionals. 

Stamp the sentiment using Cherry Cobbler Ink onto a long strip of Very Vanilla C/S. Cut apart and add to the card front using Dimensionals. 

Add some Gold metallic Pearls. 

For the inside:

Cut a 3 1/2" x 5" piece of Very Vanilla C/S glue a thin strip of Cherry Cobbler C/S to it and a strip of the Traditions Of St. Nick DSP. I splattered the inside with Wink Of Stella as well. 

Don't forget to decorate the envelope!

Thank you for stopping by today! 

Happy Stamping and Creating!

(New Post) Sneak Peek Timeless Arrangements

Timeless Arrangements Card

Hello and welcome to my Blog! I'm having lots of fun playing with some new products that will be released on May 2, 2023 in the new Stampin' Up! 2023-2024 Annual Catalogue. One of the products is the Timeless Arrangements Bundle. This stamp set has 26 stamps and 16 matching dies! My favorite thing about this set is it has soooo many sentiments! I can't show you the set yet, but I can show you a card I made!

I also used the Pretty Prints Designer Series Paper. Currently it is on the retiring list and on sale for $11.55!! Great deal!!

🛍 Shop here. Thank you!

Directions:

Cut a Thick Basic White Card Stock base to 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" and score at 4 1/4".

Die cut a large Basic White C/S rectangle using the Scalloped Contours Die. Cut a 3 1/4" x 4 1/2" piece of the Pretty Prints DSP and attach it to the rectangle using Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue. Attach this to the card base using Dimensionals. 

Add some adhesive to the center of the DSP and loop some of the Silver Cord back and forth. The adhesive should hold it into place. I use the Stampin' Seal or Tear And Tape. 

Die cut a Basic White C/S rectangle from the Timeless Arrangements Dies. Stamp the sentiment using Blackberry Bliss Ink.

Die cut some floral pieces using the Textured Shimmer Paper. Attach the rectangle sentiment piece over top of the floral pieces and attach over top of the Silver Cord using Dimensionals. 

Add some Metallic Pearls to finish it off.

For the inside I stamped a Blackberry Bliss flower and added a thin strip of the Pretty Prints DSP. I also stamped onto an envelope.

I hope you have enjoyed todays card!

Happy Stamping and Creating!

Simply Succulent Birthday Card

 Simply Succulent Birthday Card

This is one of the projects we made at our latest Card Club. We used the Simply Succulent Bundle to create this beautiful card!

Directions:

Cut a piece of Thick Basic White Card Stock to 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" and score at 4 1/4".  

Cut a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of Basic White C/S and using a Blending Brush, add Coastal Cabana Ink to this panel. 

Die cut the large succulent panel using Brushed Metallic Card Stock. Attach it to the Coastal Cabana inked panel using Multi-Purpose Liquid Glue. Attach them to the card base.

Stamp the succulent plant onto Basic White C/S using Memento Black Ink. Color in using Stampin Blends. I played around with different Stampin' Blends colours for the succulents. On one card I used Parakeet Party and Fresh Freesia Stampin Blends and on the second card I used Granny Apple Green and Fresh Freesia Stampin Blends. I like the lighter one which is the Parakeet Party. Once you have finished colouring it, die cut it out and attach it to the card using Dimensionals. Splatter with some Wink Of Stella.

Add some loops of black thread or Simply Elegant Trim onto the succulent. 

Die cut a Basic White C/S tag and stamp a sentiment in Memento Black Ink. Attach to the card front using Dimensionals. 

Die cut some Basic Black C/S flowers and a sprig. Attach to the succulent die cut tucking them just under the tag.

Add a few Metallic Pearls, Opal Rounds, Pearls or Rhinestones to finish off the card. 

I like to leave tiny bits of white space when I use Stampin Blends on flowers. I think it looks more realistic. I also added a tiny bit of the Light Fresh Freesia Stampin Blends to the tips of some of the succulent flowers on the Parakeet Party sample.

For the inside I stamped the small succulent flower, colored it with Stampin Blends and I added a sentiment stamped in Coastal Cabana Ink. 

Happy Stamping and Creating!
