Freezin’ Fun Friends

Posted on by Josee

These cute little characters are so cute for Christmas cards with snow scenes.

Measurements

  • Night of Navy: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″
  • Designer Paper: 4″ x 5 1/4″

Directions

  1. Adhere the designer paper to the folded card.
  2. Take the stitched curve die to cut Whisper White cardstock. I used 2 pieces of cardstock and for the shorter piece, I adhered it upside down so that the slope went the other way. Stamp greeting using Night of Navy ink, then adhere both pieces to the card.
  3. Stamp all the images on Shimmery White cardstock, then colour each with Stampin’ Blend marker. Cut each out using the matching die.
  4. Add Shimmery Crystal Effects to the white parts of the trees and let dry. Once dry, adhere them to the card.
  5. Place the seal approximately where you will add it to the card (for positioning) and stamp the stitched swirl lines using Gray Granite ink.
  6. Place the bunny and the seal to the card using Dimensionals.
  7. Add some Adhesive-backed Snowflakes to the card.

Merry Christmoose

Posted on by Josee

Here is my super cute moose card that I made yesterday. Even though it’s sunny out today, it’s only a short time until the snow will be falling. I’m building up my Christmas card stash so I’ll be ready to send them out on time this year!!

With this card, I started with it being simple and then decided to add some rhinestones and ribbon. 🙂

 

Dimensions

  • Shaded Spruce: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″, scored at 4 1/4″
  • Crumb Cake: 4″ x 5 1/4″
  • Whisper White: 3 3/4″ x 5″

Directions

  1. Stamp trees across the Whisper White cardstock using the Shaded Spruce ink pad.
  2. Use a dauber or a sponge to add some Coastal Cabana ink to the sky. (I personally used one of those oval makeup brushes with a handle. I don’t normally give outer links here, but, these are great! click here)
  3. Stamp the star on top of the tree using Mango Melody ink.
  4. Place the cardstock in the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder and roll it through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine to add texture. Adhere the cardstock to the card.
  5. Stamp moose on Shimmery White cardstock using Memento ink. Colour with the Crumb Cake Stampin’ Blends, then cut out using the Moose Punch.
  6. Stamp the scarf on Whisper White cardstock with Real Red ink. Cut out using Paper Snips and adhere to the moose.
  7. Stamp the greeting on to a piece of 3/4″ Whisper White, use the Banners Pick a Punch to cut out the end. Add to the card with dimensionals.
  8. Make a bow using the Real Red Braided Linen Ribbon and add to the card using a Mini Glue Dot.
  9. Add Champagne Rhinestone Basic Jewels on the feature tree.

Eat, Drink and Be Cozy

Posted on by Josee

When I made this card, I decided to make it so it can be used at any time of the year. I used neutral colours to ensure that it could easily be used for a feminine or masculine card.

Dimensions 

  • Soft Suede: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
  • Very Vanilla: 4″ x 5 1/4″
  • Crumb Cake: 2″ x (approx)  5″

Directions

  1. Run the 2″ Crumb Cake through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine with the Subtle Embossing Folder. Use a sponge wedge to add some Crumb Cake ink to the cardstock. Adhere to the card on an angle and use a Paper Trimmer to cut edges that overhang the Very Vanilla Cardstock, then adhere both to the card.
  2. Adhere the piece from the Forever Gold Laser-Cut Specialty Paper (gold side down) to the card.
    (To adhere, I placed the piece upside down and used a sponge wedge to tap on some Multipurpose Liquid Glue.)
  3. Stamp the greeting on to a piece of Very Vanilla and punch out using a 1 1/2″ Circle Punch.
  4. Cut out the Stitched Circle with the die in the bundle using Soft Suede cardstock. Adhere the Very Vanilla circle to the Soft Suede circle.
  5. Loop a piece of ribbon in the back of the circles and tap down. Add to the card using dimensionals.
  6. Stamp the inside of the coffee cup with Crumb Cake ink on Crumb Cake cardstock. Stamp the outline of the cup using Soft Suede ink. Cut out using the matching die. Add the cup to the card using a dimensional.
  7. Place a Champagne Rhinestone Jewel to the middle of the cup. (The rhinestones come with glue dots behind them)
