Noel Tidings Card

Certain things in life shout "Christmas" like an evergreen tree, twinkling lights, a wreath on the front door.  This card says it loud and clear for me.  This card uses the wreath in the Noel Tidings bundle, but is cut down to create a circle. Thanks to Stamping Beauty for creating this beautiful card. 


 

Begin with embossing a piece of white cardstock with the Softly Woven Folder.  Adhere to a white card base. Die cut the wreath and then cut about 1/4 of the side off;  us Glue Dots to adhere together to make a circle; adhere to card front with glue--just a few dots around the wreath; stamp in Mossy Meadow two each of the pine sprigs; die cut; stamp in Pecan Pie, two of the branches; die cut; die cut the Holly circle in Cherry Cobbler card stock; adhere to card front; Tie a bow with Neutrals Jute and adhere to card.
White emboss sentiment and use dimensionals to attach to card; Add Gold Adhesive Backed Dots to the front.  Don't forget the inside!

Neutral Noel Card

Good Morning and Happy Friday!!!  I always enjoy this time of year because stamping and heat embossing in gold is so popular.  This card, inspired by Susan Campfield, fits that description.  Not only does it have heat embossing, it has a dry embossed background that adds to the texture of the card. Shop Here

Who knew Swirls of Magic Embossing Folder has lots of uses.  Layer everything on Gold Foil paper, add some Neutral Noel DSP, along with some gold embossed stamped images, and you've got a beautiful card!
Don't forget the inside--it's gold embossed, too.

Pretty Poinsettia Card

Well, it's the last day of September, so it's time to start thinking about Christmas cards.  I like working with Christmas colors, so this card, by Stamp with Amy K fits the bill.  Her card actually had two Poinsettias, but I was only up to do one since I was making samples for my card class next week.

Start with embossing Basic White with the Textured Three-Ring Embossing Folder. It gives depth to the card.  There is a bit of die-cutting, but I was able to die cut all the flower pieces (4) on a quarter piece of Real Red card stock and cut the leaf (Peaceful Pine) at the same time.  The tiny gold flower center---adhere a piece of a multi-purpose adhesive sheet to the back of Gold Foil before die cutting.  It makes it so much easier to attach to the flower.
It may be hard to see, but JOY is embossed in gold and then colored in with Peaceful Pine Shimmer Brush.  Stamp a sentiment from the Pretty Poinsettia on the inside, along with the Poinsettia and leaves stamps to complete the look.
