GINGERBREAD SNOWFLAKES

After spending most of Sunday stamping and card making I was left with six projects and a very messy desk! I have shared three of these projects with you already this week. Today’s project is number 4 and it has more features than yesterday’s simple card.

When I decide to make several projects using one suite, in one stamping session, I gather up one or two sheets of the coordinating card stock and the coordinating Classic Stampin’ Pads.

I chose to use an Old Olive base for this card.

Rather than use Cinnamon Cider for the embossed panel, I chose the Kraft 6″x 6″ Paper from the Gingerbread & Peppermint Suite. This panel was cut to 5-3/4″x 2-1/2″ and was run through my Mini Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the snowflake folder from the Wintry 3D Embossing Folders Bundle.

I tied a loose knot in a length of Cinnamon Cider Ribbon and wrapped it around the embossed panel.

Then I took a sheet of the DSP with the gingerbread snowflakes and cut around several of the snowflakes so that I could cut them out using the coordinating die from the Gingerbread Dies.

The snowflakes had Stampin’ Dimensionals attached to give the card some height. As you can see, the snowflakes were scattered across the card front with some being cut to align with the edges of thecard.

The ‘happy holidays’ greeting is from the Frosted Gingerbread Stamp Set and it was stamped using Old Olive. I trimmed down the greeting and popped it up with a couple of dimensionals.

I stamped the matching snowflake image onto the card insert and envelope using Cinnamon Cider ink.

Then my last step was to add some Silver Epoxy Essentials to the front of the card.

These are most of the products I used for the six projects – so not all of them were used for this card.

Hmmm – I like this card! What do you think?

Until next time, happy stamping.
