I needed a few more Christmas tags, so I combined both the October and November Paper Pumpkin kits to eek out a few more. I also used some of the add on die images, a retired poinsettia stamp, last year's tag die from the add on set, and some postal dies.
Have you completed both of your Christmas kits? The new December kits have shipped and mine is arriving today!
My mom and her husband's anniversary is at the end of December, so I thought I would create a snowy winter anniversary card for them.
I began with a white A2 card base and stamped a retired postage image in brown around the edges of the card. I didn't stamp in the middle of the card since I would be placing a panel over the center of the card.
I ran a 3.75 x 5 inch panel through the Stamp, Cut and Emboss machine with a snowy embossing folder and placed it on a piece of Pecan Pie card stock to create a small frame around the panel.
I cut a medium sized postage stamp die and ink blended Pretty in Pink around the center. I used images and a sentiment from the retired Ringed with Love stamp set on the postal image and splattered it with some Pecan Pie ink.
I finished off the card with a few rhinestones to add some sparkle!
Or making cards with Christmas Cookies on them? I made this card with supplies from Stampin' Up! The nutcracker image is from a tag kit called Nutcracker Tags. I also used a stamp and die bundle called Homemade Treats.
The background DSP is from the Elegant Pine Snowflakes pack. And the cute mini peppermint embellishments are still available.
Have you made any cookie cards? I'd love to see them. Please post them in the comments!
Today's card can be a Valentine or Christmas card. I used a Petal Pink card base with snowflakes stamped in Poppy Parade ink. I used two Poppy Parade 2.5 ink circles and a plaid circle from the Snowy Scenes DSP from last year. I also used some ephemera from the North Pole Delivery DSP. My sentiment is from the Banner Sayings bundle.
Have you made a Double Z fold card before? They look a little complicated but really are't that difficult to create! I have created two for this post using the retired Snowy Scenes DSP but the North Pole Delivery DSP would work great with my layouts. I have used most of it so I decided to go with another pack of DSP.
Begin with a standard A2 card, then fold the front panel back to the spine and burnish. This creates a Z fold card. Then take a strip of card stock 8 1/2 x 1 1/4. Score at 4 14 and 2 7/8. Adhere the longest side to the front folded panel and the last scored panel to the right bottom side of your card. These are the only two places you will adhere the strip to the card.
The DSP you choose should be cut at 5 1/4 x 1 7/8 , and two pieces cut at 1 7/8 x 1. Adhere all pieces as shown. I stamped a few snowflakes on my largest piece of DSP before adhering it to the card front. The main colors for my cards are Petal Pink and Pool Party.
The next step is to fussy cut your images. I chose to do snow globes as my focal points on my cards. You could do houses, animals or delivery trucks if you are using the North Pole Delivery DSP.
For my sentiments, I used the Banner Sayings bundle. I also added a few rhinestones in the center of my snowflakes which are from a past Paper Pumpkin Kit.
Thanks for stopping by! I hope your holiday season is the Merriest!
