Stampin’ Up! Feels Like Frost
Happy Day everyone! Make it a great day!
My card for the day is created using Stampin’ Up! Feels Like Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper and Stampin’ Up! Toil Christmas Stamp Set. It made a beautiful card. I am rather pleased with the color scheme. Instead of your typical red cardinal, I decided to make mine a bluebird. Do not know if the color is right for a true bluebird, but then he is my bird and that his color shades of blue from Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blend markers in Light and Dark Balmy Blue. It is amazing how different the color looks once a picture is taken.
My challenges are with Allsorts Challenge — theme Gold or Silver
Craftyhazelnut’s Patterned Paper Challenge.
I had intended to join another also but when I got my card finished I realized I had put it together incorrectly for the challenge — oh! well another day.
Don’t you just love this DSP? When my stamping friend Linda Richenberg said it was gorgeous, in my mind I disagreed, but after using it I have to agree with her, it is beautiful and makes for a beautiful card.
I used a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock base with a Stampin’ Up! Night of Navy card stock mat for the Stampin’ Up! Feels Light Frost DSP. Card cuts are at the end of this post. The layers are adhered together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I used the “Hello” stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Good Morning Magnolia Stamp Set stamping it using Versa Mark ink and then heat embossing using Stampin’ Up! Whisper White Embossing Powder and my heat tool. The silver diagonal square is cropped from a panel of Stampin’ Up! Silver Foil Sheets and embossed using the Stampin’ Up! Subtle Embossing Folder. It is adhered to a Stampin’ Up! Night of Navy card stock mat and then popped on the card front after the banner is adhered in place.
The bird ( I won’t call it a cardinal since I colored it blue) from the Stampin’ Up! Toile Christmas Stamp Set is stamped in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White card stock panel, then cropped using the Stampin’ Up! Christmas Cardinal Dies. It is colored using Stampin’ Up! Stampin’ Blends Markers in Light and Dark Balmy Blue. The beak is colored using the Stampin’ Up! Light Mango Melody Stampin’ Blends Marker.
A panel of the Feels Like Frost is adhered to a Whisper White panel and then trimmed using a strip of Night of Navy card stock. The sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Free As A Bird Stamp Set is stamped in Night of Navy ink. The panels are adhered to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Ink. By using the Feels Like Frost panel for the sentiment you are able to see what the entire panel looks like and just how beautiful it is.
The Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope gets a panel of the Feels Like Snow DSP to the envelope flap.

The card I am sharing today is from two stamp sets, Stampin’ Up! Nature’s Beauty Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! Snow Front Stamp Set. You need both these sets in your stash as there are so many options with these two sets.
I added little snippets of dried grass also stamped in black ink. The mountains are stamped in Stampin’ Up! Smoky Slate ink. Again, I used watercolor pencils for the sky. Stampin’ Up! Gingham Gala Adhesive-Backed Sequins are used on the card front randomly. The greeting is stamped in Gorgeous Grape ink using the “Thinking of You” stamp from the Stampin’ Up! Colorful Seasons Stamp Set.
I have used Stampin’ Up! Blueberry Bushel card stock as the card base. I wanted to emboss the front of the card with the Stampin’ Up! Pinewood Planks Embossing Folder so I cut a panel of the Stampin’ Up! Blueberry Bushel card stock the size of the card front and embossed it. This makes it so much easier and neater to emboss in this fashion. This panel is not adhered to the card front until the entire card front is finished, again doing this way makes it easier for me.
I winged it and cut the panel of Stampin’ Up! Pressed Petals DSP this design by cutting a portion of the panel out using the Stampin’ Up! Paper Trimmer and scissors. This is no particular design for any reason other than I liked it cut that way to reveal the embossed panel underneath. The scalloped trim is created from a one-inch strip from another panel of the Pressed Petals DSP and an old pair of scalloped edge craft scissors that are probably from the 80’s or maybe 1990. They are clunky and have big blue and yellow plastic handles — must have been for a child.
I stamped 4 daisies using the Stampin’ Up! Daisy Lane Stamp Set and Stampin’ Up! Daffodil Delight ink. I stacked these together to create my daisy. I stamped the leaf 3 times on a scrap of Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow card stock using Stampin’ Up! Mossy Meadow ink, I then fussy cut and stack these together also adhering them using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. A small bow was created using Stampin’ Up! Whisper White Baker’s Twine.
The greeting is from the Stampin’ Up! A Little Lace. I stamped it in Stampin’ Up! Blueberry Bushel ink and then cut the greeting apart to use the portion I wanted. The greeting is popped on the card front using Stampin’ Up! Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals that was cut in two pieces to fit the tiny words. I left the inside panel blank so a note can be written. The jewels are from the Stampin’ Up! Nobel Peacock Rhinestones.
In finishing, I gave a Stampin’ Up! Whisper White envelope flap a panel of the Stampin’ Up! Pressed Petals Designer Series Paper.
I stamped the image of the horse from the Stampin’ Up! Let It Ride Stamp Set in Stampin’ Up! Early Espresso ink on a panel of Stampin’ Up! Crumb Cake card stock. The trees are stamped on a square of Crumb Cake card stock using Stampin’ Up! Shaded Spruce ink.
The inside sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Let It Ride Stamp Set is stamped in Shaded Spruce on a panel of Crumb Cake card stock. The three trees are stamped in Shaded Spruce also at the top and bottom of the Crumb Cake panel.
My card today is the other card of the challenge from yesterday. There are always two cards for this challenge. The challenge is with
