Stampin’ Up Tidings of Christmas

Today’s card features Tidings of Christmas 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper, the Wintry 3D Embossing Folders and the Snowbody Better stamp set.

Low Inventory/Backorder Update: Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper has been on the Low Inventory List for about a week now and could go into backorder status any day.  If you’d like a package, I recommend getting it just as soon as you can!

Whimsy & Wonder 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper and Peaceful Place 12″ x 12″ Designer Series Paper were on backorder but both are now in stock.  This could change at any time.  Stampin’ Up!, just like all companies these days, is feeling the effects of global shipping delays.  They are doing everything they can to keep Stampin’ Up! products available. 

Back to today’s card! 

 

 

Stampin Up Tidings of Christmas

 

To create today’s card, I started with a base of Thick Basic White cardstock.  Then I added a piece of Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper towards the bottom of the card front.  

 

 

Then I layered pieces of Evening Evergreen and Soft Succulent cardstock together.  These are colors I do not normally gravitate towards but they are so beautiful with our Designer Series Paper and so pretty together! I cut two pieces of Evening Evergreen cardstock (you can find the measurements I used below the Supply List) and then ran them through one of the Wintry 3D Embossing Folders.  I also cut two pieces of Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper and adhered all four pieces to the Soft Succulent cardstock. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the Evening Evergreen cardstock and adhered it to the card front.

 

 

I cut a snowflake out of our Silver Foil 12″ x 12″ Specialty Paper using the So Many Snowflakes Dies. I added very small drops of Multipurpose Glue to the back of the snowflake and adhered it to the front of the card. Another option would be to use our Adhesive Sheets. Simply cut a piece of the adhesive sheet the size of the snowflake, take the backing off of the adhesive sheet and adhere the sticky part to the back of the Silver Foil. After you’ve cut out the snowflake, peel the backing off and the adhesive will be on the back of the snowflake! Easy!

 

 

Snowbody Better Stampin Up

 

To complete the card, I stamped the sentiment onto a piece of Soft Succulent cardstock in Evening Evergreen ink using the stamp set, Snowbody Better.  Ninety-Nine percent of the time, I stamp my sentiments onto Basic White cardstock which I did for this card but thought it looked a bit harsh so I opted for the Soft Succulent. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card. After I had already adhered the snowflake to the front, I wished I had placed it a little bit higher so that when I placed the sentiment, you could see the separation between the Designer Series Paper and the embossed Evening Evergreen square.  If you make this card, you might want to see which way you like it better.

Stampin’ Up! Perfectly Plaid

Today’s card features the stamp set Perfectly Plaid, the Pine Tree Punch, the Wintry 3D Embossing Folders and Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper

 

Wintry 3D Embossing Folder

 

I began with a base of Early Espresso cardstock (all the measurements I used can be found below the Supply List) and then added a layer of Evening Evergreen cardstock.  Then I added two squares of Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper. 

 

Painted Christmas Designer Series Paper

 

 

I embossed a piece of Basic White cardstock using one of the Wintry 3D Embossing Folders and then layered it onto a piece of Early Espresso cardstock. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.

 

Wintry 3D Embossing Folders

 

I used the Perfectly Plaid stamp set to stamp two trees in Evening Evergreen ink.  The tree in the forefront was stamped onto a piece of scrap paper and then stamped onto my Basic White cardstock. The darker tree was adhered using Multipurpse Liquid Glue and the other tree has a Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back.  The sentiment was stamped in Early Espresso ink and cut out using the Stitched Rectangles Dies. I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it below the trees.

 

 

 

To complete my card, I added two Rhinestone Basic Jewels.

Stampin’ Up! Positive Thoughts

Unfortunately I needed a sympathy card this week and I used the stamp set, Positive Thoughts along with the coordinating Nature’s Thoughts Dies to create today’s card. 

 

Positive Thoughts stamp set

 

I started with a base of Mint Macaron cardstock and then added a layer of Rich Razzleberry cardstock that I embossed using the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder.  I used the Nature’s Thoughts Dies and the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine to cut the Basic White rectangle 

 

 

 

I stamped a leafy frond directly onto the Basic White rectangle in Mint Macaron ink using the stamp set Positive Thoughts. Then I stamped two more onto Basic White cardstock, also using Mint  Macaron ink and cut them out using the Nature’s Thoughts Dies.  I also stamped the flower in Rich Razzleberry ink and cut it out using these same dies.

 

 

Stampin Up Positive Thoughts

 

I adhered the fronds and the flower to the Basic White rectangle using Multipurpose Glue.  I stamped the sentiment in Rich Razzleberry ink using the stamp set Inspired Thoughts and then cut it out using the Double Oval punch. Using this same punch, I also cut a Mint Macaron scalloped oval.  I layered the two piece together and then added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back before adhering it to the front of the card. 

 

 

 

To complete the card, I adhered a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside and then added five Genial Gems to the front.

Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Dies

Today’s card features Stampin’ Up! Poinsettia Dies, Encircled in Warmth stamp set, Wintry 3D Embossing Folders and Tidings of Christmas 6″ x 6″ Designer Series Paper. If the Poinsettia Dies look familiar, it’s because they debuted in the 2020 Mini Catalog and can now be found in the Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog. The beauty of many of the dies in this set is that they cut and emboss at the same time! To see what I mean, take a look at the embossing on the poinsettia!

Poinsettia Dies

 

Poinsettia Dies Stampin Up

 

 

I started with a piece of Evening Evergreen cardstock and then added a layer of Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper. Next, I adhered a piece of Soft Succulent cardstock that I ran through one of the Wintry 3D Embossing Folders.  These embossing folders are currently on backorder and as of today, they can still be added to your order and will ship when they are back in stock (estimated to be back in stock next week). The rest of your order will ship without the embossing folders. 

 

Poinsettia Dies

 

I used the Poinsettia Dies to cut two Silver Foil sprigs. Before running one of the sprigs though the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss machine, I added the little piece for the center of the flower onto the paper. I also cut two poinsettia flowers out of Basic White cardstock.  I adhered a Mini Stampin’ Dimensional between the two flower pieces and then added a regular Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back of the larger flower.  I used our Mini Glue Dots to adhere the foil sprigs to the back of the poinsettia and then adhered the flower to the front of the card. 

When using the poinsettia and leaves dies, you’ll use two dies.  One of the dies cuts the flower shape and the other embosses the paper. I used a Sharpie to mark the dies so I would know exactly how the inside piece fits (it’s a big time saver).

 

 

I used the Stitched Rectangles Dies to cut a rectangle out of Basic White cardstock and then stamped the sentiment in Evening Evergreen ink.  I added Stampin’ Dimensionals to the back and adhered it to the front of the card.  To complete the card, I adhered a piece of Basic White cardstock to the inside.
