Jolly Christmas
Today’s card is one that I created using the Be Jolly and Holly Jolly Wishes stamp set from the July to December Mini Catalogue. I began by cutting a length of Soft Succulent card in half using one of the Basic Border Dies. I love that these dies give you a finished edge on both pieces, saving time when you are creating cards! I attached one half of the die cut behind one long edge of a piece of Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper. The Designer Series Paper panel is attached to the left hand side of Basic White card. The greeting from the Holly Jolly stamp set is stamped onto the lower right hand corner of the Basic White card using Soft Succulent ink.
I stamped the tree image from the Be Jolly stamp set onto Basic White card using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and cut it out using one of the Layering Circle Dies. I coloured the image using the Dark Soft Succulent, Cherry Cobbler, Dark Daffodil Delight and Light Soft Suede Stampin’ Blends.
I attached the image to a Soft Succulent scalloped circle cut using the Layering Circle Dies. The image panel is attached to the card front using dimensionals. To decorate the inside of the card, I stamped the greeting from the Holly Jolly Wishes stamp set onto Basic White card using Soft Succulent ink. I also stamped the bird image from the Be Jolly stamp set next to the greeting using Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I coloured the bird hat using the Dark Soft Succulent Stampin’ Blend and its beak using the Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin’ Blend. I attached the second piece of the Soft Succulent die cut behind one long edge of a strip of the same pattern Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper before attaching it to the bottom of the stamped Basic White card.
I think these stamp sets are going to be very popular and today is the first day that you can order them.
Bye for now,
Kris
