Good Friday morning stamping friends. I hope you are all starting to make plans for the weekend. I’m going to be playing a little catch up today since I have a very busy work week coming up. I’m hoping to be able to start my autumn un-decorating today in prep for decorating for Christmas. I usually get all my decorating done the weekend after Thanksgiving, but it’s the end and beginning of the month which means I have to work 😦 and they scheduled me to work on Black Friday which I haven’t done in years.

Today’s project is one that Mary Deatherage designed for us to make at the retreat last weekend. This project makes a perfect little gift.

I used the Stampin’ Up! snowy Wonder Bundle along with the Snowy Scenes Designer Series Paper for my project today.

Adhere a panel of Snowy Scenes DSP to a Shaded Spruce mat using Stampin’ Seal. Fussy cut one of the globes from the Snowy Scenes DSP using Paper Snips. Adhere it to the bottom of the card front using Liquid Glue. On a panel of Basic White, stamp the tree image from the Stampin’ Up! Snowy Wonder Photopolymer Stamp Set in Shaded Spruce Ink. Cut the tree out using the Snowy Wonder Dies. Cut 2 of the trees using the Snowy Wonder Dies from a panel of Pool Party. Adhere the trees to the card front next to the snow globe, using Glue Dots and Stampin’ Dimensionals. Stamp the sentiment from the Snowy Wonder stamp set in Poppy Parade Ink on a panel of Basic White. Adhere the sentiment using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere the card front to a Poppy Parade card base using Liquid Glue.

Adhere the calendar to a Poppy Parade mat using Liquid Glue. Adhere the layered calendar to a Shaded Spruce mat using Liquid Glue. Adhere the layered calendar to the top of the card front using Tear & Tape. For the tent, fold the 4″ X 4″ panel of Poppy Parade on the 2″ score line as a mountain fold. Fold on the 1/2″ & 3 1/2″ score lines as valley folds. Adhere it to the inside of the card base using Tear & Tape on the 1/2″ & 3 1/;2″ folds

Here is a diagram that Mary gave us so we knew where to score & cut. Score the 2 3/4″ X 5 1/2″ panel of Shaded Spruce at 1/2″, 1″, 4 1/2″ & 5″. Score the panel at 1/2″ & 1″ on the bottom. Using Paper Snips, cut the 2 bottom squares off. Cut the remaining 2 squares on each side into tabs using Paper Snips. Fold on all the score lines and add Tear & Tape as in the above photo. Fold the panels in to make a little open back box. Adhere the box to the bottom of the Shaded Spruce mat. Adhere the matted box to the back of the Poppy Parade tent fold card base using Liquid Glue.

Adhere the 2 7/8″ X 3 3/4″ panel of Snowy Scenes DSP to the 3″ X 3 7/8″ Poppy Parade mat using Stampin’ Seal. Adhere the layered panel to the top of the Shaded Spruce mat using Liquid Glue. Adhere the 1 1/2″ X 3 1/4″ panel of Snowy Scenes DSP to the 1 5.8″ X 3 3/8″ panel of Poppy Parade. Adhere the layered panel to the front of the sticky note holder. On a panel of Basic White, stamp the house image from the Snowy Wonder stamp set in Pecan Pie Ink. Color the window and door using Daffodil Delight and Poppy Parade Stampin’ Blends Markers. Using the Snowy Wonder Dies, cut the house, 2 trees from Pool Party and 1 tree from Shaded Spruce. Adhere the Shaded Spruce tree using Glue Dots. Adhere the house slightly over the tree using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Adhere the Pool Party trees using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
