Sharing My First Christmas Card
Once I saw the July-December Mini Catalogue I couldn’t stop thinking about Christmas Cards! So while I was waiting for my pre-order, I decided to use the Beauty of Friendship stamp set to create this card. I attached a piece of the Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper across the bottom of a piece of Basic White card. I attached a narrow strip of Evening Evergreen card across the Basic White card just above the Designer Series Paper. I used the largest rectangle die from the Scalloped Contours Dies to cut out the panel before attaching it to scored and folded Evening Evergreen card.
I stamped the more solid large tree image from the Beauty of Friendship stamp set onto Basic White card using Soft Succulent ink. I stamped the more detailed image over the top using Evening Evergreen ink. I cut out the tree using the co-ordinating Beautiful Trees Die.
I attached the tree to the card front using dimensionals. I stamped “Merry Christmas” from the Poinsettia Petals stamp set onto Basic White card using Cherry Cobbler ink. I trimmed around the greeting and attached it to the card front just over the edge of the tree using mini dimensionals where necessary. To decorate the inside of the card, I stamped the greeting from the Poinsettia Petals stamp set onto Basic White card using Cherry Cobbler ink. I attached a narrow strip of Evening Evergreen card behind one long edge of a narrow strip of the same pattern Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper. The Designer Series Paper panel is attached across the bottom of the stamped Basic White card.
I am so happy with my first Christmas card and would love to hear what you think.
Bye for now,
Kris
