Stampin' Up! Forever Greenery Vellum Christmas Card

Hey everyone!  Todays project was created for a card class and I wanted to showcase the Forever Greenery Vellum.  I had seen a card on Pinterest that inspired me.  Don't you just love Pinterest?
The piece of vellum was torn a bit on the bottom, as you can see from the photo, leaving just enough room to see the sentiment from the layer underneath.

Stamp your sentiment using Memento onto the bottom right hand corner of the layer of Garden Green cardstock.  Then tear the vellum just enough to see that image.  Now adhere to the Garden Green layer using liquid glue and glue dots being careful with your placement.  The glue will sometimes show through the vellum, so I place embellishments over those spots to hide it.
Using the silver twine, take a piece just big enough to cover the front to the card and tape it to the back of the vellum/garden green layer.  Now take a smaller piece of silver twine and tie a knot around the first piece you placed.  Add some dimensionals to the back.
Adhere the dsp to the card front, then pop the vellum/cardstock layer on top of that.
Now for the wreath: stamp using Memento onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock, colour in using Stampin' Blends, run it through the Cut and Emboss Machine using the coordinating die.  Adhere this to the vellum layer. Do the same with the Cardinal: stamp onto a scrap of Basic White, colour and pop onto the wreath using a dimensional.  Add a few of the Rhinestone Basic Jewels.

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,...
