Yep, I finally made a Card and Envelope with the Ornamental Envelopes Stamp Set and Envelope Dies!
Love, Love, Love how it turned out!!
It was so much fun to make up my own idea for the Wreath. I stamped the Twig image first in Early Espresso ink on the Crumb Cake Layer. Then I stamped the Leaves in Mossy Meadow Ink, then topped it off with the Berry stamp in Versamark and heat embossed with white embossing powder!
Card Base Real Red 8 1/2 x 5 1/2" scored at 4 1/4"
Mossy Meadow Layer 4 x 5 1/4"
Crumb Cake Layer 5 1/8 x 3 7/8"
Strip of real red 1 x 3 7/8"
Scrap of Crumb Cake - Stamped Happy Christmas in VersaMark ink pad and heat embossed with White Embossing Powder. I cut it out using the Stampin Up Cut and Emboss Machine with a die from Snow Time Dies.
I popped up 6 real red small Poinsettias on the wreath and a Double Bow from Linen thread. Added pearls.
Inside, I used a layer of Crumb Cake Cardstock 5 1/4 x 4"
and a layer of whisper White 5 1/8 x 3 7/8
I stamped the Verse from Tag Buffet with Early Espresso Ink and little bow and holly from the same set.
I really like the way it turned out!
The Envelope Dies are super easy to use!
Let me know if you have any questions or comments!!
Well, I guess I'm liking the Shutter Fold Cards now!! Two days in a row!!
The Video Tutorial for the Poinsettia Petals Shutter Fold Card is the one to follow for this card as well. Just change up the Stamp Set from Poinsettia Petals to Snowflake Wishes and Dies!
Oh My Gosh!! Have I told you that ILOVE the Poinsettia Petals Stamp Set?!?!I can't decide which color I like the best??? I think I REALLY like the Blues!!!!
I used Balmy blue for the Card Base, 1st layer is Pacific Point and the top layer is the Beautiful Snowflake Splendor DSP!!
The Leaves are in Balmy Blue and Pacific Point. I sponged them with Balmy Blue Ink!
I stamped the inside with Balmy Blue poinsettias and the Christmas Begins with Christ in Pacific Point.
