Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees –love & joy

Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees –love & joy

Comments 2 comments

Good Day everyone.  I have a new computer so if the layout of my blog doesn’t look right that’s the reason, I thought I would give a bit of a warning about it.  Frustrating!

The card I am sharing today is created using Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees Stamp Set for the greeting and sentiment.  The main part of the card is little pieces of strips of paper left over from other cards that I cut into smaller pieces.

Card Cuts:

  • Garden Green cardstock
    • card base — 4-1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5-1/2″
  • Granny Apple Green cardstock
    • mat — 4″ x 5-1/4″
  • Basic White cardstock
    • mat for mosaic
    • inside piece — 4″ x 5-1/4″

The Basic White cardstock piece has a piece of Adhesive Sheet adhered to the base.  This is where the mosaic pieces will be adhered.  After you have adhered the pieces, sprinkle Gold Embossing Powder over the surface of the pieces, then heat emboss.

Adhere the mosaic piece over the Granny Green cardstock piece then adhere the Granny Apple piece to the card base.  Stamp a greeting from Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees Stamp Set using Memento Black ink on a scrap of Basic White cardstock, fussy cut then adhering to a piece of Real Red cardstock and fussy cutting.  Add the greeting to the lower corner of the mosaic piece using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

A sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees Stamp Set is stamped on a panel of Basic White cardstock and leftover strips from the mosaic panel are added to the top and bottom corners.

A Basic White envelope gets a panel of 2023-2025 Regal 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

My hope and wish are that you will be inspired to create amazing creations yourself. Feel free to CAS(E) any card. Any questions you may have, you know you can always contact me. Have a blessed day!

Krafty Chicks Challenge #707 Christmas —Denise

I have the honor of being the Guest Chick for Krafty Chicks Challenge for the month of March.   This is the second week and the theme as you can see above is Christmas.  It is never too early to get a start for your Christmas cards.  i can’t wait to see all the Christmas cards.

 

I am so happy Stampin’ Up! carried this stamp set over.  It is a beautiful set and makes beautiful Christmas cards. Inked Botanicals is the Designer Series Paper used as the background pieces.

The card base is Lost Lagoon cardstock with a layer of Pretty Peacock cardstock as the mat for the Inked Botanical Designer Series Paper background.  I cut a piece of the Inked Botanical cut in four pieces, embossed using the Cross Hatch 3D Embossing Folder from Basic 3D Embossing Folders. The four pieces are then adhered to the Pretty Peacock cardstock mat leaving a border between each.

A tag is die cut from a piece of Basic White cardstock  using a die from Stampin’ Up! Merriest Tree Dies. A greeting is stamped on the tag in Memento Black ink. A length of Pool Party ribbon is looped through the tag and tied in a bow.  A tree image from Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees stamp set is stamped in Garden Green ink on a piece of Basic White cardstock, die cut and popped on the tag using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  Snowflakes are also die cut from Basic White cardstock and popped on the card front.  Rhinestone Basic  Jewels are popped in the center of each snowflake.

The negative piece left when the tree on the card front was die cut is used as the frame for a piece of Pretty Peacock cardstock.  A sentiment is stamped in Versa Mark ink, sprinkled with White Embossing Powder and heat embossed using a heat gun.

A Basic White envelope gets a piece of Inked Botanicals Designer Series Paper adhered to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin’ Up! Beary Christmas — Hello

Stampin’ Up! Beary Christmas — Hello

Comments 10 comments

Still making Christmas cards.  I know Christmas is soon, but I have a few that I forgot to make.  Had all the pieces cut since October but kept putting them off.  Now it is crunch as Christmas is in a few days.  But these are hand delivered so it will be fine.

The only stamping on this card is the greeting and sentiment.  I used Stampin’ Up! Beary Christmas Designer Series Paper.  When I looked at he paper I knew it would make a great fun fold card.

I am entering the Creative Creases Challenge for this card.

I started with a Basic White card stock card base, adding a panel of Beary Christmas Designer Series Paper to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I know that Stampin’ Up! Penguin Place stamp set is retired, but I just had to use it with this Designer Series Paper, I always think of penguins and polar bears together, whether they really are or not.  I had to borrow a stamp set as I do not have it, but wish I had purchased now. My cute little penguin is created from a piece of black glitter card stock that I borrowed also.  The greeting is from Stampin’ Up! Sending Smiles stamp set.  I had to do a little masking to get just the word HELLO.  I put a ribbon around the card to close it better as it is a thick fun fold.

You can see from the Beary Christmas Designer Series Paper that I am using what a great piece it is for a fun fold.  This card I cut the fun fold all in one piece, later  I will show both cards I made as fun fold, the other one I cut the fun fold in two piece so I could layer it but I think by layers it made the card thicker.  The penguins are placed around the card joining the polar bears in creating the  fun scene.  The penguins are stamped from Stampin’ Up! Penguin Place stamp set. The scarves, bow ties, hair bow and knit caps are stamped, then fussy cut and adhered to each penguin. Adhesive Backed White Sequins from Adhesive Backed Sequin Trio are popped around the card front and inside. Winter Meadow Designer Series Paper  is used as the background.  I think the blue piece makes for a good background as the blue looks like a snowy sky.

You can see in this photo how the inside layer is folded.  A sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Penguin Place stamp set is stamp in Memento Black ink on a scrap of Basic White card stock, trimmed and adhered to the top of the right side panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

These are the two fun folds I made. The one on the left is only one layer inside, the one on the write is two layers, one layer is the two the one with the two penguins, the other is the one with the one penguin.  He looks like he is resting on the top of the first layer but he is adhered to the second layer by the blue tree and the bear with the Christmas tree.

A Basic White envelope gets a piece of Beary Christmas Designer Series Paper but a different pattern . The piece is cut 2-1/4″ x 6″ and adhered using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Comments 22 comments

Welcome! It that time, the 2nd Tuesday of the month  you have been waiting for with excitement, a fun team blog hop from Amy’s Inkin’ Krew.   The theme for this month is “Celebrate”. You are in for a treat seeing all the talent these ladies present to you. Sit back with your favorite beverage and enjoy.  You will see cards that will  inspire you to get creative as you jump from blog to blog.

My card today is created using Stampin’ Up! Perched In A Tree stamp set, Stampin’ Up! St Nicholas stamp set, and One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper.

This is a diagonal fold card.  The card base is Pool Party card stock with the diagonal piece that is cut off embossed and adhered to the diagonal fold of the card front.  A little card of Real Red card stock is cut and adhered to the diagonal fold of the card.

A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Perched In A Tree stamp set is stamped in Pecan Pie ink on a piece of One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Paper.  The piece is trimmed to fit the Real Red card.  Three Iridescent Pearl Basic Jewels are popped around the front of the Real Red card.

A sentiment from Stampin’ Up! St Nicholas stamp set is stamped in Pecan Pie ink on a different pattern of One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper.  It is adhered to the inside of the Real Red card stock card.

Open the card on up and you will see another piece of One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper on the back side of the Real Red card stock card and a panel on the right side of the main card with a sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Perched In A Tree stamp set stamped in Pecan Pie ink.  It is adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

A Basic White envelope gets a piece of the One Horse Open Sleigh Designer Series Paper a different pattern for the envelope flap.  Cut the piece for the envelope 2-1/4″ x 6″, adhere using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees — Merry Christmas

Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees — Merry Christmas

Comments 2 comments

This is one of the cards demonstrated by Mary Deatherage at our Team Meeting on Sunday.  It is a fun card to create and a great way to use up scraps.  My tree is random scraps that I had saved from other cards.  Seems there is always a little snip here or there that can be saved from each card made.  The stamp set used at our Team Meeting was Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees stamp set and Dies.

The card base is Basic White card stock with a panel of the same die cut first using a die from Merriest Trees Dies then embossed with a Falling Snow Embossing Folder.  A second piece of Basic White card stock is cut and the die cut piece is placed over it to lightly draw the outline of the tree.  I find by lightly having the outline of the trees gives you a base applying the strips of Designer Series Paper.  The strips can be cut any width you choose.  I randomly chose strips from my huge stash of strips.  I probably have enough strips left from other cards to make 20 of these cards. I didn’t realize just how many I had until I started this card.  I always just drop the strips in a box I keep on my work space for this.

After applying all the strips with a dab of Multipurpose Liquid Glue, place the embossed die cut piece over the piece with the strips.  You may have to snip a few edges so the strips to not hang off the card.  Once you see how it is going to look, pop Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the embossed die cut tree panel then pop over the piece with the strips.  I also popped Stampin’ Dimensionals around the tree  so there would be no slump of the tree.   A star from Stampin’ Up! Stars At Night Dies is die cut from Distressed Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper and popped on the top of the tree using a Stampin’ Dimensional.  An Adhesive Backed Star Trinket is adhered in the middle of the star.

A piece of Cherry Cobbler card stock is die cut using the same die as the one on the card front.  The piece is then embossed using the same embossing folder used for the card front. The piece is adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  A sentiment from Stampin’ Up! Merriest Trees stamp set is stamped in Cherry Cobbler ink in the center of the die cut.  A gold star is adhered to the tree top.

A Basic White medium envelope gets a piece of Traditions of St Nick Designer Series Paper applied to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
