Stampin’ Up Snow Is Glistening Christmas Card

Good Friday morning everyone.  Hope you’ve had a great week and are making some fun plans for the weekend.  In just 4 days I will be heading to Orlando for Onstage.  I’m so excited.  I can’t wait to see what will be coming out in the new Occasions catalog and for Sale-a-bration .  I’m hoping to be posting pictures for you either here on my blog or on my Facebook page

For today’s card I used the Snow Is Glistening stamp set.  You are finally able to purchase it for a limited time only until November 30, 2018.  If you like this set, you best to get it as soon as possible because it’s while supplies last.  I was also inspired by one of my team members Amy Koenders for today’s card.  You can see her card here.  Take a look.

I started with a Whisper White panel and adhered a piece of Twinkle Twinkle Designer Series Paper to it using Snail.  I adhered it to a Night of Navy card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Using my Big Shot, I cut out the largest Snowflake from the Snowfall Thinlits Dies in Shimmery White cardstock.  I also cut out a smaller snowflake with my Big Shot in the Shimmery White cardstock.  I cut out the small Snowflake from the Snowfall Thinlits Dies and the Merry from Merry Christmas Thinlits Dies from a Silver Foil Sheet using my Big Shot.

I adhered the Silver Foil snowflake to the center of the large snowflake using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.  I adhered the large snowflake using Stampin’ Dimensionals, cut into pieces, to the card front.  Using Multipurpose Liquid Glue I adhered the smaller snowflake below the large snowflake and the Merry across the bottom.  I added 2 Clear Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the center of the snowflakes.

On the inside Whisper White panel I stamped 3 of the snowflake images from the Snow Is Glistening stamp set in the center, stamping off 3 times to get a very light image, in Night Of Navy Ink.  I stamped the sentiment from the Merry Christmas To All stamp set in Night Of Navy Ink over the snowflakes.  I adhered the Whisper White panel to the card base using Snail.

To finish my card I adhered a piece of Twinkle Twinkle DSP to a Medium Whisper White Envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked my card and will give it a try, this was a pretty quick and easy card. Happy Stamping!

Stampin’ Up So Santa for the Paper Players Challenge #416

Good Thursday morning everyone.  Before I get to my card, do you know what day it is?  It’s November 1st and do you know what that means?  The SNOWFLAKE SHOWCASE products are available starting TODAY!!!  Here’s what we have:

Snow Is Glistening Stamp Set,

Happiness Surrounds Stamp Set,

Snowfall Thinlits Dies,

the absolutely gorgeous White Velvet Sheet

and the beautiful Snowflake Trinkets.

If you’re wanting any of these items, I’d get them as soon as possible.  Supplies are limited and they are only available for the month of November.

Now onto today’s card.

For today’s card I used the So Santa stamp set and played along with the Paper Players Sketch Challenge # 416.  Be sure to stop by the Paper Players blog to see all the amazing projects everyone has made and to play along.  Here is the sketch I got to work with.

Here is my take on the sketch.  Take a look.

I started with 2 pieces of Festive Farmhouse Designer Series Paper.  I adhered the plaid one to a Cherry Cobbler mat using Snail.  For the wood grain piece of DSP I first ran it through my Big Shot using the Pinewood Planks Dynamic Textured Impressions Embossing Folder then I adhered it to a Cherry Cobbler mat. I adhered the 2 matted pieces to a Gray Granite card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I adhered a thin strip of Cherry Cobbler cardstock across the 2 matted pieces using Glue Dots then wrapped a piece of Shaded Spruce Metallic Ribbon around the card front.

On a small piece of Whisper White cardstock I stamped the Santa holding the plate of cookies from the So Santa stamp set in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink.  I colored him in using my Basic Black, Cherry Cobbler, Crumb Cake, Ivory and Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I adhered the artwork to a Cherry Cobbler mat using Snail then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.  I adhered the card front to a Cherry Cobbler card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On the inside Whisper White panel I stamped the Holly and Berries from the So Santa stamp set across the top in Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and colored them in with my Cherry Cobbler and Shaded Spruce Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I stamped the sentiment in Gray Granite Ink in the center.  I adhered the Whisper White panel to a Gray Granite mat using Snail and to the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Medium Whisper White Envelope.  I stamped the Holly and Berries across the bottom front of the envelope and colored them in the same as I did for my card.  I adhered a panel of Festive Farmhouse DSP to the envelope flap using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today.  I hope you liked my card and will give it a try.  I really had a lot of fun making this one.  Happy Stamping!
