Good Sunday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone’s weekend going? I hope you have some fun plans this weekend, even if it’s just relaxing. I worked all day yesterday and boy was it a hectic confusing day. A lot of crazy customers. I’ll be at the dog bakery all day today. It’s suppose to be a beautiful day so that usually means everyone will be walking in town with their dogs, YAY!!!

I pulled out a set I haven’t played with since our retreat last month. The possibilities with this set are endless. I’m so happy I purchased this set and can’t wait to play with it more. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Moments Bundle along with the Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of the Painted Christmas DSP to a Cherry Cobbler mat and then to the front of an Evening Evergreen card base.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment and poinsettia images from the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set in Cherry Cobbler Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Merriest Frames Dies first so I knew where to stamp everything else making sure I had enough room. I stamped the 2 pines and larger poinsettia images from the Merriest Moments stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink and the leaf image in Soft Succulent Ink. I cut all the images out using my Merriest Frames Dies. I adhered the poinsettias together alternating leaves using tiny amounts of Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the layered poinsettia to the top of the frame using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tucked the pine and leaf images under the poinsettia using Glue Dots.

I adhered a length of my Gold 3/8″ Shimmer Ribbon to the card front and the artwork on top of the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Merriest Moments stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the pine images from the Merriest Moments stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink on the top of the panel, twice with full strength ink and twice stamped off once. I stamped the poinsettia image on the bottom of the panel in Cherry Cobbler Ink and the leaf image in Soft Succulent Ink. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Cherry Cobbler mat and then to the inside of the Evening Evergreen card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the poinsettia image from the Merriest Moments stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the leaf image from the Merriest Moments stamp set in Soft Succulent Ink. I adhered a panel of the Painted Christmas DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. If you haven’t purchased this set you might want to consider getting it. It’s such a wonderful set. I hope you like my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
