Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. Hope your weekend is starting off good. I’m at my OnStage @ Home today all day.

Today’s card is one that we made at our meeting on Tuesday. My upline is doing Mystery Stamping with us each month. It’s a lot of fun and hard at the same time. Jaimie sends us just the measurements we will need and the rest is a surprise. Since we don’t know the design at all it’s hard to pick the colors and stamp set we want to use. I actually didn’t like the shape of my 1st card I made, so I had to remake it. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Christmas Season Bundle, the Stampin’ Up! Christmas To Remember Cling Stamp Set along with the Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by making a mask from a sheet of copy paper. I cut the largest circle from the Layering Circle Dies and placed it over a panel of Basic White cardstock. Using the Stampin’ Up! Christmas Season Photopolymer Stamp Set I stamped the pine boughs in Evening Evergreen, the leaf image in Soft Succulent, the stems and berries in Soft Suede and Real Red Inks randomly around inside the circle.

I adhered a panel of the Painted Christmas DSP to an Evening Evergreen card base. I adhered a smaller panel of the Painted Christmas DSP on an angle to the card front. I adhered the Basic White artwork panel to the top of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals straight. I stamped the sentiment from the Christmas to Remember stamp set in Versamark Ink on a panel of Real Red cardstock. I immediately sprinkled it with my White Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I cut the sentiment out using my Seasonal Labels Dies.

I adhered a piece of the Evening Evergreen 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon to the artwork and adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Real Red Wonderful Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Christmas to Remember stamp set in Evening Evergreen on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the pine boughs, leaf image and stems & berries from the Christmas Season stamp set the same as I did for the card front. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Real Red 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 pine boughs, leaf image and berries from the Christmas Season stamp set on the envelope front in the same colors I used on the card front. I adhered a panel of the Painted Christmas DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for stopping by my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Happy Stamping!!
