Thank you Veterans for your service, your sacrifice, and your dedication to the protection of our country and our freedoms.

The card I am sharing today is another one made using the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Cabin Stamp Set and the tree dies from the Cabin Dies.  You know how you get a saying or song stuck in your head and it plays over and over, that’s why the greeting, I kept hearing it over and over in my head when I was creating this card, so I went to the computer, typed it out and printed it to become my greeting.  I believe the rest of the saying is: to grandmother’s house we go.  I’m sure there must be more, but that’s what kept popping in my thoughts.

My challenge for today is the Word Art Wednesday Challenge.  

This is a new challenge for me and I am so happy I found it.  Jingle Belles for Christmas cards.

Start with a piece of Smoky Slate cardstock cut to 5-1/2″ x 11″.  I forgot to take a picture of the blank card stock but you can see where it is scored.  Score at 1-3/4″, 5-1/2″, and 9-3/4″ this will create the folds for your card base when folded.

Cut a 3-1/2″ x 5-1/4″piece of the Peaceful Place DSP, mat on a piece of Basic Black card stock and adhere it to the card front.  It is your choice as to whether you want to add a piece of DSP to the right side of the fold as this will be folded back over the cabin panel.

Cut a 1-1/2″ x 5-1/4″  piece of a different pattern of the Peaceful Place DSP using Multipurpose Liquid Glue adhere it to the first fold of the card.  As the last fold needs to be the same as this one cut a 1″ x 5-1/4″ piece of the same DSP and adhere to the last fold.  These pieces are matted on Basic Black card stock.

Open the card base up now, so that the inside can be created.  From another panel of the Peaceful Place DSP cut two panels for the inside,  I chose the tree pattern for this one.  Cut the left panel 3-1/2″ x 5-1/4″ and the right panel 4″ x 5-1/4″  Both are matted on Basic Black card stock cut 1/8″ larger for the mats.  

Stamp the sentiment in Smoky Slate ink on the right side under the trees on the left side under the trees stamp the cabin image from the Stampin’ Up! Peaceful Cabin Stamp Set.

Now, it is time to create the belly band. This helps keep the card closed as it is bulky. Cut a 1-1/4″ x 11″  piece of Smoky Slate cardstock for the belly band. Close the card, wrapping loosely the cardstock band around the entire card, and adhere the two ends together with liquid glue, not too much, to create the belly band.  For this greeting, I created it on the computer and cropped using a die from the Tasteful Label Dies.  Crop trees using dies from the Cabin Dies.  Pop the trees on the label using Glue Dots.  Add a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels and your belly band is finished.

A medium white envelope gets a panel of a different pattern of the Peaceful Place DSP.

If you would like to create this card all the products used are at the end of this post.
