Be Jolly Santa

Ho! Ho! Ho! 
Check out this Holly Jolly Christmas card! 
I used the 'Be Jolly' & 'Holly Jolly Wishes' stamp sets 
on page 29 in the Holiday Catalog.
 
This is one of the cards that everyone made at my 
Holiday Extravaganza class a couple of weekends ago.
This Santa just makes me smile.
I made a pocket on the inside of the card, 
so that you could slide a gift card (or cash) into it!
 
How did I do it?
It is sooo easy......
  1. 4x 5 1/4" piece of Basic White cardstock
  2. Slide the Tailored Tag Punch up from the bottom of the cardstock, as far as it will go.
  3. Center it so that it is even on both the left & right sides.
  4. And NOW punch.
  5. When adding the adhesive- make sure that you only add adhesive to the outside edges.  Do not add adhesive to the center, as you don't want to close up your 'gift card pocket'!
Here are the measurements & supplies.
stamp sets:  
  • 'Be Jolly'- Santa
  • 'Holly Jolly Wishes' (words)
card stock:
  • Cherry Cobbler-5 1/2 x 8 1/2"- score at 4 1/4"- fold in half for card base
  • Basic White- 2 x 5 1/4"- stamp words onto the upper right corner for front of card
  • Basic Black- 3/4 x 5 1/2"- for belt
  • Gold Foil- 1 x 1"- for belt buckle
  • Basic Black- 3/4 x 3/4"- for belt buckle
  • Cherry Cobbler- 3 1/4" strip- die cut scalloped circle
  • Basic White- 3" strip- die cut circle & stamp Santa onto
  • Basic White- 4 x 5 1/4"- for inside of card
designer paper:  Sweet Stockings DSP-  1 1/2 x 5 1/4"
ink:  Cherry Cobbler & Memento
Stampin' Blends:  Dark Cherry Cobbler; Ivory; Dark Daffodil; Light Basic Black
other:  Stampin' Cut & Emboss Machine; Layering Circle Dies; Wink of Stella; Tailored Tag Punch; dimensionals

I hope you have a TERRIFIC Tuesday!!

Evergreen Elgance

 WOW!
I love this card too!
It is a totally Susie card!
 
It is a fun center gate card, with the front panel off set & layered onto it!
To make the trees a little more mute- I added a piece of Vellum over the top of them!
 
How do you adhere the Vellum to the card stock with the trees on it?
Use Seal or Seal Plus!  
They both work great!  
I just added a little Seal Plus (my favorite adhesive) 
to the 4 corners of the vellum & pressed onto the stamped trees.

And check out the pretty embossed Pines!
They are from the Wintry 3D Embossing Folder that is 
on page 155 in the Annual Catalog!
 This is what it looks like when opened up!
 You could change the words on this card & it could be 
a card for almost any occasion!
 
This is one of the cards that everyone joining me for my October monthly 
card classes will be making with me! 

stamp sets: 'Evergreen Elegance' (trees) & 'Holly Jolly Wishes' (words)
card stock:
  • Evening Evergreen- 5 1/2 x 8 1/2"- score at 2 1/8 & 6 3/8"- this is a center gate fold card base
  • Soft Succulent- 3 1/4 x 5 1/4"- emboss with the pines in the Wintry 3D Embossing Folder pack
  • Evening Evergreen-2 1/2 x 4 1/2"
  • Basic White-2 1/4 x 4 1/4"- stamp trees onto

A fun fold with Snowflakes using Knit Together

Here is a fun fold card, called a book binding fold- using the
'Knit Together' Bundle #156454= $45.75 in the Holiday Catalog on page 34.
See how it opens up like a book! 
And it looks like this when opened.
Notice how I decorated the inside of the card with some of the pieces I die cut out of the front.
I used my Stamparatus to stamp this 3 3/4 x 3 3/4" Misty Moonlight CS square,
using the 'Knit Together' stamp set.

I used the Knit Sweater Dies & cut the card stock square
 into pieces like shown above.
NOTE:  Make sure you stamp your sweater image first & then die cut.
You will want to be sure your dies are straight.
 I lined mine up so that they had the same pattern centered on all of them.
SEE how I drew little lines onto my snowflake die strip- so I could keep 
both the top & bottom snowflake strips cut out in the same pattern!
 
I then adhered these 3 separate pieces to a 4 x 4" Basic White card stock square.
 When adhering it I stuck down the top piece, the bottom piece & then
the middle piece- making sure I had even spacing on all sides.
So what do you think?
This is a fun bundle with lots of possibilities when creating with it.
 
Here are the supplies & measurements:
stamp set:  'Knit Together' & 'Words of Cheer' (for words)
cardstock:
  • Misty Moonlight- 4 1/4 x 11"- score at 4 1/4 & 5 1/2" for card base
  • Basic White- 4 x 4"- for outside layer of card
  • Might Moonlight- 3 3/4 x 3 3/4"- stamp sweater image onto this & die cut it as shown
  • Basic White- 2 1/4" strip- stamp words & die cut with small Hippo Die
  • Basic White- 4 x 4"- for inside of card

Faux Silk Technique with Snowflakes!

This is one of the cards everyone made last weekend at my Holiday Extravaganza.
I love snowflake images & I love them in Navy for some reason.

If you look closely at the front of this card can you tell
that I glued some Tissue Paper to it?
This technique is called- Faux Silk.

You can CLICK BELOW on the 2 links to see other cards I have
on my blog that I made doing the Faux Silk Technique.
This is a fun z fold card.
This is what it looks like when standing up!
The greeting on the outside of the card is from the 'Merry Snowflakes' stamp set.
#156419= $21.00 pg. 13 in the Holiday Catalog.
 
The snowflakes & the inside words are from the 'Snowflake Wishes' stamp set.
#158267= $26.00 in the Annual Catalog.
