Handmade Christmas Cards Shared

Happy New Year's Eve!  I hope everyone has had a wonderful holiday and like me, are looking forward to a great 2019!  While I'm getting ready to pack away Christmas, I'm taking time to enjoy looking at all my pretty Christmas cards one last time.  Besides the regular holiday cards, I received quite a few handmade cards this year and I today wanted to share some of them with you.  Thank you to everyone who sent me a card!

Tutorial: Winter Wonderland Card

 

Today's card features the Winter Woods Stamp Set and the In the Woods Framelits Dies from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog.  I wanted a card that could not only be used as a Christmas card, but one that by changing the sentiment inside could be a winter birthday card or a thank you card after the holidays.  The stamp set and framelits can be purchased separately or you can choose the bundle to save 10%.  However, this catalog will be retiring at the end of the year so you don't have a lot of time left to place your order.

Be sure to visit my Stampin' Up! Online Store to purchase any of the items used to make this pretty card.

 

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Cut a piece of Very Vanilla card stock to measure 8-1/2” x 5-1/2”and score at 4-1/4” and set aside. 
2. Stamp a piece of 3-3/4” x 5” Very Vanilla card stock with the tree trunks image from the Winter Woods Stamp Set.  Emboss the piece with the Softly Falling  Embossing Folder. 
3. Add a piece of 1/8” Gold Ribbon to the bottom of the embossed piece and adhere to the front of the card.
4. With the In the Woods Framelits Dies, cut out the 2-part Christmas tree and 3 of the regular trees. Adhere the 3 trees to the front of the card.  Adhere the Christmas tree together using Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals and adhere to the front of the card.
5. With a small brush, add Frost White Shimmer Paint to the trees
6. Stamp your holiday sentiment inside of card.

Can you believe it's almost time to bring out the 2019 calendars?  I don't know about you but this year went extremely fast for me.  It's hard to believe that Christmas is just 2 weeks away and we will soon be ringing in the New Year. 

Today I wanted to show you a cute magnetic calendar we made at one of my classes that is perfect for your refrigerator or your file cabinet at work.  It is very simple to make and uses the Rooted in Nature Stamp Set and Nature's Roots Framelits Dies.  You can purchase these separately or in a bundle to save 10%.  Just visit my Stampin' Up! Online Store today.

1. Cut a 4” x 6” piece of  Share What You Love Designer Series Paper and insert inside Acrylic Magnet Frame. 
2. On a piece of Sahara Sand card stock, stamp 2 leaves and the stump from the Rooted in Nature Stamp Set in Soft Suede Ink. Cut out.
3. Stamp the leaves onto Old Olive card stock in Old Olive Ink. Cut out using the Natures Roots Framelits Dies.
4. Stamp the other leaves onto Crushed Curry card stock in Crushed Curry Ink and cut out.
5. EYES: Punch out two Whisper White circles and two Sahara Sand circles using the 3/4” Circle Punch.  Punch out 1/4” Basic Black circles.
