Simple Christmas card using Way To Goat stamp set and Plaid Tidings DSP

 

Welcome to my blog. I’ve been wanting to make a card with this stamp set for awhile. I finally got a chance to play with it and decided to make a Christmas card. This stamp set is cute and versatile to use for any occasion. I paired it with the Plaid Tidings DSP.

Materials and Directions 

- Start with a card base 5-1/2 x 4-1/4. I used Very Vanilla cardstock and Whisper White cardstock.

- Layering piece is Plaid Tidings DSP 5-1/4 x 4. Glue to card front.

- I stamped the goat image on Whisper White cardstock that I die cut with a rectangle die from my stash. I then colored it using CrumbCake Stampin blends. The hat is a die from my stash that I die cut out of Cherry Cobbler cardstock. I then glued to the card front.

You can buy the Stampin Up products I used from my website.

Slim Line card using Freezin’ Fun Bundle and In Good Taste DSP

 Welcome to my blog. It’s been a while since I last posted. Been busy with Thanksgiving, craft fair and agility trial. I’ve been trying Slim Line cards they are fun and easy to make. I like them because you have more surface to decorate and can be mailed in a regular envelope. The card above I used a die set I have to make the card base. If you don’t have a die you still can make one. Here are the directions:

- Use cardstock 7 x 8-1/2 in color of your choice ( I used Balmy Blue) for the card base. Score at 3-1/2

- Layering piece I used is In Good Taste DSP cut at 8-1/4 x 3-1/4. The top layering piece is Night of Navy cardstock the same size. Use your layering square and rectangles to cut out the openings.

- I stamped colored and die cut the images from Feezin’Fun bundle. I adhered them to the front.

You can buy this fun bundle from my website. Remember to use the Host Code 6GM3BS9Jfor orders less than 150$.

Cocoa Card using Snow Wonder Bundle with Snowflake Splendor DSP

 Welcome to my blog. Have one and only craft fair of the year coming up on the 28th so I have been waiting on projects for it. I will be sharing them with you. These are not only for craft fairs but can be used as stocking stuffers, presents, teacher gifts etc. This first project is a Cocoa Card. I have made cocoa pouches for all my craft fairs and they have been good sellers. I found this one on YouTube by Tina Hutton from Close to my Heart. I thought they were neat so decided to make them this year for the craft fair.

Materials and Directions 

- I started with a 5-1/2 by 4-1/4 card base in Pacific Point. On one side I cut putting the fold and the opposite corner on 1 inch . See photo. I then used tear and tape to glue bottom to make the pocket.

- The DSP layer is a piece 5-1/4 x 4. I cut this by putting both corners at 3/4 inch . See photo. I then glued to front of the card. I stamped the sentiments as in photo. The sentiments are from the Freezin’ Fun stamp set.

- The snowman I stamped on Whisper White cardstock, colored and cut out using the die set. I glued to front. I added some glitter at base of snowman.
