Stampin’ Up! Joyful Flurry with Charming Sentiments Perched In A Tree
I am entering the Can You Handle The Pressure? Challenge with the Option of Snow.
I am also entering the Global Design Project. I turned my card portrait instead of landscape.
Also, I am entering Tuesday Morning Sketches Annual Anything Goes Challenge.
I will say I CASed Karen Ksenzakovic’s card from September 29. It must have stuck in my memory for I was sure surprised yesterday when I opened her Christmas card and it was almost the same card. Karen, I must have loved it so that I kept it stored away, thanks. Wanting to give her credit, I looked and looked through her blog thinking, I could find it and it finally dawned on me to put it in search on her blog. Karen’s is the one on the right.
I started with a piece of Soft Succulent card stock, embossing a piece of the same using one of the embossing folders from Wintry 3D Embossing Folders. I also embossed a piece of Vellum using the same embossing folder. I cropped a snowflake from the Frosted Flurry Dies from a scrap of Basic White card stock.
I stamped the bird from Stampin’ Up! Perched In A Tree stamp set in Memento Black ink and colored it using Crumb Cake, Soft Succulent, So Saffron, and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers. The branch is colored using a Dark Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends Marker. I cropped leaves from Copper Foil and from Gold Foil from the Gold & Rose 6′ x 6″ Metallic Speciality Paper. A snowflake is cropped using a die from the Frosted Flurry Dies. A greeting from Stampin’ Up! Joyful Flurry stamp set is stamped on a piece of Basic White card stock and cropped using a die from the Stitched Rectangle Dies. All the layers and elements are arranged and adhered to the card base using either Multipurpose Liquid Glue or Stampin’ Dimensionals. Brushed Metallic Adhesive Backed Dots are popped around the card front.
On a panel of Basic White card stock, I stamped snowflakes from Stampin’ Up! Joyful Flurry stamp set in Soft Succulent ink in corners of the panel. I stamped sentiments from Stampin’ Up! Charming Sentiments stamp set in Soft Succulent ink also, the panel is then adhered to the card base. Two Brushed Metallic Adhesive Back Dots are popped in the center of the snowflakes.
I suppose you can call this a Fun Fold as it has a bridge for having it stand up easier. Or maybe it can be called a card with an inside bridge. To create the bridge cut a piece of Soft Succulent card stock 3-1/4″ x 4″, score 3/8″ on each 4″ side then score at 1-5/8″, this will be the middle of the card. I adhered the 3/8″ side to the bottom of the card using Tear & Tape.
A Basic White medium envelopes get a panel of Texture Chic Designer Series Paper added to the envelope flap.
