Stampin' Up! Christmas Season Card

Just Add Ink Sketch Challenge #631.

For this Christmas card I used the Stampin' Up! Christmas Season bundle and the Merriest Moments bundle.

For my card base I used Basic White cardstock.  The next layer is Real Red cardstock, with the top layer Silver & Gold DSP.

I also used the DSP on the envelope flap.

The strip of Silver Foil was die cut using the Delicate Edges Dies and adhered across the center of the card.

The pine cones were stamped using Crumb Cake and Soft Suede inks, die cut and adhered with liquid adhesive.  The pines and leaves images were stamped using Shaded Spruce and Evening Evergreen inks.  The pines were tucked behind the pine cones and the holly leaves were added behind the flower then adhered with dimensionals onto the card.

Silver Trim was looped a couple of times and added under the flower.

The flower image was stamped twice using Real Red ink, die cut and adhered together.  Festive Pearls were added in the center of the flower.

The sentiment was also stamped with Real Red ink and adhered with dimensionals.

Inside my card is Real Red cardstock layered with Basic White.  A strip of DSP was added along the right.  The pines were stamped with Evening Evergreen ink, stamping directly onto the paper once then twice, without re-inking the stamp, which created a lighter image.

The sentiment was stamped using Real Red ink.

Stampin' Up! Boughs of Holly & Merriest Moments Card

Freshly Made Sketches Challenge #563.

To create my card using the above sketch, I used the Stampin' Up! Merriest Moments bundle along with Boughs of Holly DSP.

Basic White cardstock was used for my card base, layered with the beautiful Boughs of Holly DSP.  This paper is just so pretty... I really didn't want to use it... but I broke down!  And then I added the white cardstock which covered most of it!

How beautiful is this envelope flap with DSP adhered on it!

To create the circle I used the Stylish Shapes Dies and the Snowy White Velvet Sheets.  I've had this for awhile and haven't used it until now!  What?  I know, right?  Because the velvet sheets are white, I used a blending brush and Real Red ink to add some color around the edges.  I also ran the circle directly onto my ink pad for a darker color around the edges.

The flower was stamped with the same ink and adhered with dimensionals.  The leaves were stamped using Garden Green ink.  The sentiment was stamped using Real Red ink, fussy cut and adhered with dimensionals.  Festive Pearls were added around the flower.

A strip of DSP was added on the right inside the card with the sentiment stamped in the center.

Stampin' Up! Happy Holidays Card

 CAS Colours & Sketches Challenge #497.

'Tis the season to start making Christmas cards... if you haven't done so already.

Mine are all made!  Yay!  I only have to address the envelopes and personalize the inside with a handwritten message.

For this sketch challenge I used the Stampin' Up! Celebrate with Tags bundle along with the Brightest Glow stamp set and Artistically Inked stamp set to create my card.

The card base is Basic White cardstock with the next layer from the Santa Express DSP and the final layer white cardstock.

Using the image from the Artistically Inked stamp set and Shaded Spruce ink, I stamped the image in the center.

Next I stamped the mittens with the same ink and die cut (from the Celebrate with Tags bundle).  I used a piece of the 2022-2024 In Color Baker's Twine Pack - Parakeet Party, and adhered each end behind the mittens with a small piece of scotch tape. 

The sentiment is from the Brightest Glow stamp set, stamped with Shaded Spruce ink and adhered with dimensionals.

One mitten was adhered with liquid adhesive and the other with dimensionals.  Two snowflakes were die cut and tucked under the mittens.  Festive Pearls were added on each mitten and below the sentiment.

A 3/4 inch strip of DSP was adhered on the right of the card and the sentiment is also from the Brightest Glow stamp set.

DSP was adhered on the envelope flap as well.

Blue & Silver Christmas Card

 The Paper Players Color Challenge #617.

Since I haven't used blue much with my Christmas cards, I knew this would be a fun challenge.  I used all three colors.  The Blue and Silver are so pretty together and I used White instead of black.

Of course, I used my favorite stamp set from Stampin' Up! called Merriest Moments bundle and the Brightest Glow stamp set for the sentiments, along with Sun Prints DSP.

I began with my card base in Starry Sky cardstock.  This is such a beautiful, vibrant color!

Next I added Silver Foil, the beautiful Sun Prints DSP and finally another layer of the Starry Sky cardstock.

I added DSP on the envelope flap as well.

This sentiment is from the Stampin' Up! Brightest Glow stamp set.  I inked the image using Versamark and then heat embossed with Silver Embossing Powder.

The flower images were also inked using Versamark and heat embossed using Silver Embossing Powder.  The larger flowers were layered together with White Glittered Organdy Ribbon looped and adhered under the flower and adhered with dimensionals.

Festive Pearls were used in the flower centers.

I love the shimmer created on the flowers from the embossing powder.  So elegant.

Inside my card I brought the DSP along with Basic White cardstock.  The flowers and sentiment were stamped with Starry Sky ink.  This sentiment is also from the Brightest Glow stamp set.

Thanks so much for stopping by today and I hope you enjoyed my blue and silver Christmas card.
