Welcome, glad you stopped by.  The card today is created using the Woodlands Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (TIEF)  I am happy tto see that Stampin’ Up! has kept this for a few years as I use it often all  year round.  It is a good for a variety of cards.  This is made for a male family member that has a birthday in December.

The design for this week is from Sunday Stamps

The card base is Whisper White card stock 4-1/4″ x 11″  scored at 5-1/2″.  The Joyous Noel DSP mat is cut 5″ x 3-3/4″ and it is matted with a panel of Basic Black cut 5-1/4 x 4″ .  The art piece is a panel of Whisper White cut 3″ x 3-1/4″ and matted on  a Basic Black cu t 3-1/4″ x 3-1/2″.  I double matted the art piece to give it a bit of height so I would not have to use dimensionals to make it easier for mailing.  The trees on the art piece are from the Nature Sings Stamp Set. After stamping the trees, an Aqua Painter was used along with  Balmy Blue ink to wash the paper to make it look like sky.   The Woodlands Embossing piece had to be trimmed to fit the 3-1/4″ x 3-1/2″ Basic Black mat.

The strip of Joyous Noel Glimmer Paper is cut 4″ x 1/2″. I used a pair of scissors that is probably as old as Stampin’ Up! to cut the scallops on the Glimmer Paper.

The greeting that is adhered to the Glimmer Paper is from the Postcard Pal Stamp Set.

 

Thanks for stopping by.  My wish is that you found encouragement and inspiration for your creations.  Return often.
