Hi Friends!
This Clean and Simple (CAS) Christmas
card was designed for the Splitcoaststampers’ SC623 Sketch Challenge along with
the AAA Cards "CAS Game #79 Christmas" Challenge and the Double “D” Challenges “Dreaming of a White Christmas”.
I decided to keep the card very
simple and created two versions- this post has version #1 and both versions use
Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps Clear Stamp Sets, Scripture Tree and Winter Blessings.
In addition to checking out the above challenge sites, if
you have not stopped by the Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps blog or FB page yet, I hope you
will take the time to do so- fabulous inspiration is posted each week from the
SNSS Creative Team!
To create this card:
1).
De-static a piece of white cardstock with an embossing static tool, ink
the SNSS Scripture Tree Clear Stamp main tree image with embossing ink and
stamp onto the upper left hand portion of the panel.
2). Apply gold embossing powder and
heat set with a heat tool.
3). Repeat the same steps above with
placing the individual word images from SNSS Scripture Tree Clear Stamp Set,
stamping and embossing on the lower right hand side of the trimmed piece of the
panel.
4). Ink just the star from the SNSS Scripture Tree image with embossing powder, apply gold embossing powder and
heat set.
5). Once the powder has cooled, score
double lines above and below the sentiment area (hard to see in the photo).
6). De-static both panels again with
an embossing static tool, arrange various snowflakes from the SNSS Winter Blessings Clear Stamp Set, ink with embossing powder and stamp around the
panels.
7).
Apply white embossing powder over the stamped snowflakes and heat set
with a heat tool.
8). Adhere the panels to the white
card base with dimensional foam (leaving a space in the center per the sketch)
and add rhinestones to the stars to finish off the card.
Quick and easy!! I added just another step to the “stepped up”
version and will post that shortly.
Thanks again for stopping by to
visit-hugs and I hope you have a great week!
