Good Tuesday morning my stamping friends. How is everyone doing today? Only 2 more days until Turkey day and the official start of the Christmas season, YIKES!! Before you know it we’ll be saying Happy New Year.

Today’s card I made with my upline Jaimie on a zoom call last week. During our last Sale-a-bration in August she had a little challenge to ‘Go For The Gold’. Anyone who signed on a demonstrator, she was going to have a little celebration. I signed on someone new so we had zoom lunch together and stamped some cards together. I really had a lot of fun spending some time with her. The only thing that would have made it better was to be sitting with her in person and stamping. Today I’m sharing one of the cards we made together.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Christmas To Remember Cling Stamp Set along with the Tiding of Christmas 6 X 6 Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by embossing a Sahara Sand card front using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to a Sahara Sand card base.

I adhered 4 strips of the Tidings of Christmas DSP to the card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I cut the solid star using the Christmas Trimmings Dies from a panel of Cherry Cobbler cardstock. I cut the detailed star die using the Christmas Trimmings Dies from a panel of Basic White cardstock. I adhered the detailed die to the Cherry Cobbler die using tiny amount of Multipurpose Liquid Glue and adhered the layered star to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Christmas To Remember stamp set in Cherry Cobbler Ink. I cut the sentiment out using the Seasonal Labels Dies and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I tied a small bow using the Evening Evergreen 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon and adhered it to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Tidings & Trimmings Photopolymer Stamp Set in Cherry Cobbler Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the star image from the Tidings & Trimmings stamp set in Evening Evergreen Ink by the sentiment. I adhered a strip of the Tidings of Christmas DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to an Evening Evergreen mat and then to the inside of the Sahara Sand card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of Tidings of Christmas DSP to the envelope front and a panel 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!!
