Christmas in July-Banner Year CASE'D

 Yet another sunny day here, certainly hard to focus on Christmas cards but that's okay.  Here is card #4 from our recent Christmas in July held recently.  This card is totally case'd from Pinterest which I think is the best form of flattery ever.  

Extremely simple card which can be altered for any occasion, and pieces could be swapped out for dsp or other types of cardstock.  



Supply List:

Tear & Tape 154031; Dimensionals 104430

Paper Trimmer152392

Stampin Cut & Emboss Machine-149653


Step- By- Step Instructions:

 

Stamping: Using the Holly and Berries stamps from the Banner Year stamp set, stamp them in Garden Green and Cherry Cobbler on the three pieces of Basic White.  Stamp the “be merry” sentiment onto the last strip of Basic White.

I also like to finish the inside of my cards so I then stamped a verse for the inside along with a few holly leaves and berries in the upper corner of basic white cardstock.

Emboss the two strips of Cherry Cobbler using the Stampin Cut and Emboss Machine and Bark 3D embossing folder.

Take the banner punch and snip the end of all strips of cardstock.

Now let’s assemble our card:

Arrange and adhere the five large strips to the cardbase with tear & tape.  I slightly layered and offset my pieces.  Adhere the greeting strip to the remaining piece of Cherry Cobbler strip with tape and use dimensionals to pop up on to the cardbase. 

Glue down the Basic White piece to the inside of the card.

Stampin' Up! Splendid Autumn Sympathy Card

Image
Today's card was inspired by a sketch seen on facebook from an American Demonstrator.  I was intrigued by the cool way to use some of our beautiful designer series paper and the best part is, you don't need a huge piece! I am attending a Stampin' Up! event this weekend and we were asked to bring a few projects to share and this is one of my projects. Fall isn't officially here yet, but once school starts up and the leaves start to fall off the trees, it's pretty close.  The Splendid Autumn designer series paper is gorgeous, the beautiful rich colours are simply stunning.   The cardbase and matte layer are Wild Wheat and the cardstock that the dsp is mounted on is Crushed Curry.  Simply cut the pieces and adhere together and then adhere to the card front.  I stamped using Memento onto a strip of Basic White cardstock which was then mounted on to another piece of Crushed Curry.  This was then popped up using Stampin' Dimensionals after the length of 2023...

Stampin' Up! Nests of Winter Christmas Card

Image
Good day folks!  I am here with another card created for my recent Stampin' Up! gathering this past weekend.  We had a day long activity where we focused on building up our Stampin' Up! business, watched several Atlantic Demos create some beautiful projects and then participated in a show box swap.  This was my shoe box swap offering. I have used this fancy fold layout several times and thought it was the perfect opportunity to showcase some of the beautiful Nests of Winter dsp in the latest mini catalogue! My cardbase is Grey Granite which was cut and scored, the die cut square behind the image and the strip to hold the card together are all Gray Granite too.  The dsp is from Nests of Winter and they are adhered to the front and the inside of the cardbase.  There is a small piece of Basic White for the insert and fits beside the piece of dsp.  The strip of Gray Granite,  is scored is secured next.  Starting at the far left edge of the card front,...
