Stampin’ Up! Merry Snowflakes for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends! Welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. I hope everyone is doing well today. If you are hopping over from Akiko Sudano’s blog, thank you for stopping by my blog. This week we have a Theme Challenge. I can’t wait to see what everyone has created this week. Be sure to take a moment to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. Here is my card using this weeks Theme.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Merry Snowflakes Bundle along with the Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

This is our theme for this week.

I played along with The Paper Players Sketch Challenge #569

I also joined in with Watercooler Wednesday Challenge #330.

I started by adhering 2 panels of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to a Basic White card front.

I embossed a panel of Silver foil from the Silver Foil Specialty Pack using the Wintry 3D Embossing Folder and adhered it to the Basic White panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered the card front to a Misty Moonlight card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I adhered one of the Wonderful Snowflakes to the center of the card front using a Stampin’ Dimensional. I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Merry Snowflakes Cling Stamp Set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a panel of Basic White cardstock. I fussy cut the sentiment using my Paper Snips and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few of the Blue Adhesive-Backed Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Merry Snowflakes stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the scroll image from the Merry Snowflakes stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink below the sentiment. Using my Stitched Snowflakes Dies, I cut the top of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Misty Moonlight mat and then to the inside of the Misty Moonlight card base.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the scroll image from the Merry Snowflakes stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a strip of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Thank you for visiting my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Now that you’ve seen my card, take a minute to hop through all our projects today.

Stampin’ Up! Merriest Moments for Fun Fold Friday with Video Tutorial

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I’ll be at my OnStage @ Home event sitting at my craft table all day today & tomorrow. I love these events and can’t wait till we can go in person again and be with all my team members and other demonstrators from all over the United States and around the world. Until then, I sit comfortably in my own home.

Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video on Wednesday. If you were able to join me or watched the replay, thank you. If you’d like to watch my video and stamp along, the measurements are below along with the links to my Facebook page and my YouTube channel. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Moments Bundle along with the Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering panels of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to Basic White mats.

I adhered the layered panels to a Mossy Meadow card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

For the belly band I wrapped a strip of Mossy Meadow cardstock around the card base and adhered the ends together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. On a panel of Basic White cardstock, I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Moments Photopolymer Stamp Set in Mossy Meadow Ink. I cut the sentiment out using my Seasonal Labels Dies. Using the Merriest Moments stamp set I stamped the holly leaves in Mossy Meadow Ink, the berries in Blushing Bride Ink, the pine boughs in Mossy Meadow Ink, stamped off once, and the mistletoe image in Mint Macaron Ink. I cut all the images out using my Merriest Frames Dies. I arranged the pine boughs and mistletoe behind the sentiment using Glue Dots. I adhered the holly leaves and berries together using Glue Dots and then to the front of the sentiment using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the sentiment collage to the belly band using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Polished Pink 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Merriest Moments stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on a Basic White panel. Using the Merriest Moments stamp set, I stamped the holly leaves in Mossy Meadow Ink on the bottom of the panel and the berries in Blushing Bride Ink above the holly leaves. I stamped the pine boughs in Mossy Meadow Ink, stamped off once, on the top of the panel and the mistletoe in Mint Macaron Ink over the pine bough image. I adhered the Basic White panel to the inside of the Mossy Meadow card base.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the holly leaves images from the Merriest Moments stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the berries image in Blushing Bride Ink below the holly leaves. I adhered a panel of Whimsy & Wonder 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. This is my last card of the week using the beautiful Whimsy & Wonder DSP. Please let me know in the comments if you like the focus of using a specific DSP. I’d love to hear your feedback. If you do CASE this card, please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under the post. I’d love to see your take on the card. The list of measurements are below if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video. You can watch my video on my Facebook page Here.

You can also view the video on my YouTube channel Here. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Snow Wonder for The Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop

Good Thursday morning my stamping friends! Welcome to our Happy Inkin’ Thursday Blog Hop. I hope everyone is doing well today. If you are hopping over from Akiko Sudano’s blog, thank you for stopping by my blog. This week we have a Sketch Challenge. I can’t wait to see what everyone has created this week. Be sure to take a moment to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. Here is my card using this weeks Sketch.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Snow Wonder Bundle along with the Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

Here is our sketch for this week.

I started by adhering a panel of Whimsy & Wonder DSP to a Misty Moonlight card base. I cut another panel of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP using the 3rd largest Stitched Rectangle Dies and adhered it to a Misty Moonlight mat and then to the card front using Stampin’ Seal.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the snowman image from the Stampin’ Up! Snow Wonder Stamp Set in Smoky Slate Ink. I colored the image in using my Mint Macaron, Mossy Meadow, Polished Pink and Pumpkin Pie Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using my Snow Time Dies and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Basic Gray Classic Matte Dots (available January 4, 2022) for the buttons on the snowman.

On the panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Snow Wonder stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink and cut it out using the Snow Time Dies. I adhered a piece of Polished Pink 3/8″ Open Weave Ribbon to the card front and adhered the sentiment over the ribbon using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Snow Wonder stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a Basic White panel. It’s very hard to see in the photo, but I embossed the top of the panel using the Snow Time Dies. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Polished Pink mat and then to the inside of the Misty Moonlight card base using Stampin’ Seal.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the snowman image from the Snow Wonder stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on the envelope front and colored it in the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Whimsy & Wonder DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for visiting my blog today. I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Now that you’ve seen my card, take a minute to hop through all our projects today.

Stampin’ Up! Merry Snowflakes CAS Christmas Card

Good Wednesday morning my stamping friends. We’re halfway through the week and on our way to the weekend, YAY!!! I’m so excited for this weekend, it’s our OnStage @ Home event. This is our Stampin’ Up! convention that we have every year and hopefully next year we’ll be able to attend our event in person.

Today I have my 3rd card using the Whimsy & Wonder DSP, which to me is a clean and simple one. How are you liking the different cards using this DSP? Here’s my CAS card for today.

Today’s card I used the Stampin’ Up! Merry Snowflakes Bundle along with the Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper.

I started by adhering a panel of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to a Basic Gray mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to a Blushing Bride card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I adhered a strip of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to the center of the card front using Stampin’ Seal.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Merry Snowflakes Cling Stamp Set in Basic Gray Ink and cut it out using the Stitched Snowflakes Dies. I adhered the sentiment to the center of the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered 2 of the Wonderful Snowflakes above and below the sentiment using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Merry Snowflakes stamp set in Basic Gray Ink on a Basic White panel. I embossed/cut the top of the panel using the Stitched Snowflakes Dies. I adhered a strip of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to the bottom of the panel. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Basic Gray mat and then to the inside of the Blushing Bride card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Whimsy & Wonder 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. Don’t for get to stop back tomorrow to see my 4th card using the Whimsy & Wonder DSP. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Happy Holly-Days for Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Blog Hop

Good Tuesday morning my fellow stampers. Welcome to Amy’s Inkin’ Krew Team Blog Hop. It’s the 2nd Tuesday of the month so that means Blog Hop Day!! If you are starting with me, be sure to hop around to see everyone’s beautiful projects. If you’ve hopped over from Amy Koenders’ blog, welcome to my blog and thank you for stopping by. The theme this month is “Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays”.  We can interpret this however we want.  Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Happy Holly-Days Stamp Set along with the Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by embossing a Mint Macaron card front using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the embossed panel to a Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered 2 panels of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to Mint Macaron mats. I adhered one panel of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to a Polished Pink mat. I adhered the longer layered panel to the top of the larger rectangle layered panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Polished Pink layered panel to the top of the multi-layered panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the bird and holly images from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the images in using my Crumb Cake, Daffodil Delight, Mint Macaron, Pale Papaya and Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I fussy cut the images using my Paper Snips. Using my Layering Circles Dies I cut a solid circle and coordinating scalloped circle from a panel of Basic White cardstock. I stamped the sentiment from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set on the solid circle in Mint Macaron Ink and embossed the circle using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered the circles together using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and adhered it to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the bird image and holly image to the circle using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I wrapped a piece of the Silver Simply Elegant Trim around the multi-layered panel and tied a bow. I adhered the multi-layered panel to the embossed card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the holly image from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on either side of the sentiment and colored them in using my Mint Macaron and Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Mint Macaron mat and then to the inside of the Mint Macaron card base.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the holly image from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front and colored it in the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to the envelope flap.

Thank you for visiting by my blog today, I hope you liked my card and will give it a try. Don’t forget to stop back tomorrow for my 3rd card using the Whimsy & Wonder DSP.

Stampin’ Up! Whimsical Trees

Good Monday morning my stamping friends. How was everyone’s weekend? It was a brisk sunny one here. Is everyone ready for another week? I have a very full week ahead planned out already.

My upline Jaimie has done weeks focusing on specific designer series paper. I thought I would give it a try. I have cards planned out for the entire week focusing on one of our beautiful DSP’s from the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog, which just happens to be my favorite DSP. Here’s my 1st one for the week which just happens to be a fun fold.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Whimsical Trees Cling Stamp Set along with the Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by scoring a full panel of Mint Macaron cardstock. With the 8 1/2″ side on the bottom of the trimmer I scored at 4 1/4″. I turned the cardstock so the 11″ side was on the bottom of the trimmer and I scored at 5 1/2″. I took my score blade out of my trimmer and lined up the corners with the cutting indent and cut the panel from corner to corner making sure to go through the center mark on the cardstock. This will give you 2 card bases. I folded the top triangle down and the side triangle over. I cut a panel of Whimsy & Wonder DSP from corner to corner so that I had 2 triangles. I adhered one of the triangles of the to the front of the Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I cut a panel of Mint Macaron cardstock on an angle and embossed it using the Evergreen Forest 3D Embossing Folder. I adhered it to the bottom triangle card front using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

I cut a panel of Silver foil from the Silver Foil Specialty Pack using the Encircled in Beauty Dies. Using my Layering Circles Dies I cut a circle from a panel of Basic White cardstock that would fit inside the Encircled in Beauty Die. I stamped the Basic White circle with the sentiment from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink. I adhered the sentiment to the center of the Encircled in Beauty Die. I adhered the layered sentiment to the right side triangle using Stampin’ Dimensionals only on the one side of the die cut image. I added a few Mint Macaron Genial Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Smoky Slate Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the tree image from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the tree lights image from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Versamark Ink over the tree image and immediately sprinkled it with my Silver Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Mint Macaron mat and then to the inside of the Mint Macaron card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the tree image from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the tree lights image from the Whimsical Trees stamp set over the tree in Versamark Ink and immediately sprinkled it with Silver Embossing Powder and set it using my Heat Tool. I adhered a panel of the Whimsy & Wonder 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. Don’t forget to stop back tomorrow to see my 2nd card using the Whimsy & Wonder DSP. Happy Stamping!!

Stampin’ Up! Pink and Blue Snowflake Wishes

Good Saturday morning my stamping friends. I hope you have some fun activities planned for the weekend. I’ll be at work all day today and tomorrow.

I have a quick card for you today using some non-traditional colors for Christmas. I like a mix between traditional and non-traditional. I also pulled out a set from the 2021-2022 Annual Catalog. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Snowflake Wishes Photopolymer Stamp Set along with the Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering panels of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to Silver Foil mats from the Silver Foil Specialty Pack. I adhered the largest layered panel to a Thick Basic White card base. I adhered the long narrow layered panel next and the short narrow layered panel on the top.

I adhered one of the Wonderful Snowflakes to the card front using a Stampin’ Dimensional.

I stamped the sentiment from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set on a strip of Basic White cardstock in Misty Moonlight Ink. I adhered the sentiment to the card front overlapping the snowflake.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set in Misty Moonlight Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the cluster of small snowflakes from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set in Blushing Bride Ink in either side of the sentiment. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Blushing Bride mat and then to the inside of the Thick Basic White card base.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the small cluster of snowflakes image from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set in Blushing Bride Ink on the envelope front. I adhered a panel of the Whimsy & Wonder 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!!

Stampin’ Up! Happy Holly-Days for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. Can you believe it’s the middle of October already? Another month flying by. Before you know it , it’ll be Halloween, then Thanksgiving and Christmas, YIKES! How was everyone’s week? Does anyone have plans for the weekend? I’ll be at work all weekend between both jobs.

Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video on Wednesday. If you were able to join me or watched the replay, thank you. If you’d like to watch my video and stamp along, the measurements are below along with the links to my Facebook page and my YouTube channel. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Happy Holly-Days Cling Stamp Set along with the Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper for my card today.

I started by adhering a panel of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to the top of a Blushing Bride mat.

I scored a panel of Whimsy & Wonder DSP as shown in the template above. On the left side I made a little mark 1 1/2″ down from the top. I cut from the 2 1/4″ score line to the 1 1/2″ mark using my Paper Trimmer. I folded on the score lines as I marked on the template as Valley Folds and Mountain Folds to make the curtain.

I adhered the folded panel to the bottom of the Blushing Bride mat. I wrapped a piece of the Blushing Bride 3/8″ Frayed Grosgrain Ribbon around the layered panel over the seam. I adhered the card front to a Mossy Meadow card base.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the bird image from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I colored the image in using my Crumb Cake and Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blends Markers. I stamped the holly image from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set in Versamark Ink. I immediately sprinkled it with my Silver Embossing Powder from the Metallic Embossing Powder pack and set it using my Heat Tool. I colored the holly in using my Blushing Bride and Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Write Markers. I stamped the sentiment from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink and cut it out using the Harvest Dies. I fussy cut the bird and holly using my Paper Snips. I adhered all the cut pieces to the card front. I added a few 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set in Mossy Meadow Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the holly image from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set on either side of the sentiment in Tuxedo Black Ink and colored the images in using my Mossy Meadow Stampin’ Blends Markers and Blushing Bride Stampin’ Write Marker. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Blushing Bride mat and then to the inside of the Mossy Meadow card base. I added a couple of the 2021-2023 In-Color Jewels.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the bird image from the Happy Holly-Days stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on the envelope front and colored it the same as I did for the card. I adhered a panel of Whimsy & Wonder 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. If you do CASE this card, please feel free to post it in the comments of my Facebook page under the post. I’d love to see your take on the card. The list of measurements are below if you’d like to stamp along while watching the video. You can watch my video on my Facebook page Here.

I started by adhering a panel of Whimsy & Wonder DSP to a Polished Pink mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to a Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the top and bottom images from the Delivering Cheer stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink. I stamped the legwarmer image in Polished Pink Ink. I colored the image in using my Crumb Cake, Mint Macaron, Mossy Meadow & Polished Pink Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the image out using the 3rd largest Stitched Rectangle Dies. I adhered the artwork to a Polished Pink mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

On a strip of Basic White cardstock I stamped the sentiment from the Delivering Cheer stamp set in Polished Pink Ink. I cut the strip into a banner using my Banners Pick A Punch. I cut a strip of Polished Pink cardstock using the Banners Pick A Punch and adhered the sentiment to the mat using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the sentiment to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals and Glue Dots. I added a few Rhinestone Basic Jewels to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Delivering Cheer stamp set in Polished Pink Ink on a Basic White panel. I adhered 2 strips of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to either side of the panel using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Polished Pink mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To complete my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I adhered a strip of the Whimsy & Wonder DSP to the envelope front and a panel to the envelope flap.

Stampin’ Up! Whimsical Trees for Fun Fold Friday

Good Friday morning my stamping friends. Welcome to my Fun Fold Friday. How was everyone’s week? Hope you had a productive one and are ready for the weekend. Does anyone have any plans? I believe I will be working both days.

Today’s card I made on my Facebook Live video on Wednesday. If you were able to join me or watched the replay, thank you. If you’d like to watch my video and stamp along, the measurements are below along with the links to my Facebook page and my YouTube channel. Here’s my card for today.

I used the Stampin’ Up! Whimsical Trees Bundle along with the Whimsy & Wonder Specialty Designer Series Paper for my fun fold card today.

I started by scoring a full panel of Mint Macaron cardstock. With the 8 1/2″ side on the bottom of the trimmer I scored at 4 1/4″. I turned the cardstock so the 11″ side was on the bottom of the trimmer and I scored at 5 1/2″. I took my score blade out of my trimmer and lined up the corners with the cutting indent and cut the panel from corner to corner making sure to go through the center mark on the cardstock. This will give you 2 card bases. I folded the top triangle down and the side triangle over. I cut a panel of Blushing Bride cardstock from corner to corner so that I had 2 triangles. I cut a panel of Whimsy & Wonder Spec. DSP from corner to corner so that I had 2 triangles. I adhered one of the triangles of the Whimsy & Wonder Spec DSP to one of the Blushing Bride triangles using Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I adhered it to the front of the Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On another panel of Blushing Bride cardstock, which I adhered an Adhesive Sheet to the back, I cut multiple garland dies using the Christmas Tree Dies. I adhered them to the other Blushing Bride triangle to fill in most of the spaces and trimmed the excess using my Paper Snips. I adhered the panel to the other front of the card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

On a panel of Basic White cardstock I stamped the ornament and holly images from the Stampin’ Up! Whimsical Trees Cling Stamp Set in Tuxedo Black Ink twice. I colored the images in using my Mint Macaron, Polished Pink and Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blends Markers. I cut the images out using my Christmas Trees Dies. I stamped the sentiment from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a small panel of Basic White cardstock. I adhered the sentiment to a panel of Mint Macaron cardstock, which I cut a scalloped edge using the Penned Flower Dies, using Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the ornaments to either side of the panel using Multipurpose Liquid Glue just on the strings. I adhered the holly on top of each set of ornaments using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I adhered the layered panel to the top of only one side of the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. I added a few Genial Gems to the card front.

On the inside I stamped the sentiment from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Tuxedo Black Ink on a Basic White panel. I stamped the tree image from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink on the bottom of the panel. I stamped the light image from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Polished Pink Ink over the tree image. I adhered the Basic White panel to a Blushing Bride mat using Stampin’ Seal and then to the inside of the Mint Macaron card base using Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

To finish my card I decorated a Basic White Medium Envelope. I stamped the tree image from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Mint Macaron Ink on the envelope front. I stamped the light image from the Whimsical Trees stamp set in Polished Pink Ink over the tree image. I adhered a panel of Whimsy & Wonder Spec DSP to the envelope flap
