It’s Thursday and this is the 4th post this week highlighting Holiday cards! It has been a great week for me. I feel so happy to have shared 4 posts highlighting holiday cards. This is the 4th post, Holiday Cards September 2024. I was able to use 3 stamp sets and a mixture of colors. I used the Take a Bow and Iconic Celebration Designer Series Paper.
Card #1:
Do you love this color combination too? I seem to stay with the same colors when I think of snowflakes! Smoky Slate reminds me of silver and any shade of blue just works well with it! The well loved snowflake embossing folder was the texture I needed to on my card. I absolutely LOVE this ribbon and need to buy more of it! The Designer Series Paper is part of the Iconic Celebrations pack and I have used almost every pattern on projects.
small details:
My focal point was the ribbon. It just finished the card. I didn’t fussy cut a snowflake like I normally do and adding a few pearls was just the right touch. Sometimes less is more.
Card #2
A little fun fold card for Card #2!
small details:
- cut card base 5 1/2″ x 7″
- score at 4 1/4″
- cut 3″ x 3 1/2″ for the flap
- with the 3 1/2″ along the top, score at 1/2″
- layering card stock on the square 2 3/4″ x 2 3/4″
- white card stock 4″ x 5 1/4″ and 2 1/2″ x 2 1/2″
- dsp 2 1/2″ x 5 1/4″
- tuck tab under the card stock as shown when you assemble your card
Note Cards!
My love for note cards continues! Sweetest Star Bundle was used on both. Add the Iconic Celebration or the Take a Bow Designer Paper and some stampin’, you have some rather cute cards!
small details:
I stamped Santa in Memento Ink but the Gingerbread People I used Early Espresso ink! There are times using a classic ink pad just makes more sense AND it doesn’t really blend outside the lines. TRY IT!! Do you love the peppermint embellishments? If you said yes, so does everyone. They are on backorder but hopefully they will be back in stock and you can share them next year!
Keeping it short!
Yes, that was my goal because I am not using my website like I should be. I use Instagram almost daily as well as Facebook to share my creations. If I post here I share on Pinterest so you have information needed to complete the project if you wish to create! I absolutely love hearing from you and I love hearing you were inspired to create something I made.
Coming soon!
With my LAST holiday card class for 2024 being tomorrow, I may not get a post uploaded for Friday. Likewise, the next few days I have preplanned activities that may keep me off my computer. Bare with me, as I will get holiday cards from October, November and December finished by next week. I have plenty to share and I want to get back to posting frequently. Hopefully the shorter format is ok for my favorite people!
Happy Stampin’
