Merry Christmas Decor

 

Hi Friends!

Today I am sharing a Christmas card designed with the new All Season Décor Bundle along with new designer papers from the Stamp Simply October Release!

I love the All Season Décor Bundle, perfect for so many different occasions!

I also love the new Carta Bella Welcome Home 6x6 paper as well as the Studio Light Sending Joy 6x6 paper pad- both are perfect for holiday cards!

As many of you who follow me know, I enjoy playing along with online challenges and will be linking this card to the Word Art Wednesday #515-#516 “Anything Goes” Challenge , the Wednesday Creative Inspiration November “Wonderful Winter/Feeling Festive” Challenge along with the Watercooler Wednesday #328 Tristan’s Challenge: All About Occasions.

If you have not had a chance to visit the Stamp Simply blog or the other challenge sites yet, I encourage you to do so- gorgeous inspiration from all!

To create this card:

De-static a piece of white cardstock with an embossing powder tool, stamp the images from the All Season Décor Bundle with Versafine Onyx Black ink, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Repeat the above steps on a small piece of the dark snowflake designer paper from the Carta Bella Welcome Winter 6x6 paper, stamp the pitcher image from All Season Décor Bundle, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Heat emboss the “Merry Christmas” sentiment with clear embossing ink onto the wood box image.

Die cut all of the stamped images with the coordinating dies from the All Season Décor Bundle. 

Watercolor the images with water-based markers.

Trim a piece of the Studio Light Sending Joy designerpaper (with the wreath at the top) to approx. 4” x 5 ¼”.

Repeatedly stamp the pine sprig with green ink repeatedly directly onto the designer paper (for the sprigs in the background), plus stamp a few onto white cardstock (die cutting with the coordinating die).

Mount onto a piece of dark green cardstock and adhere to a white card base.

Position the elements behind the box image and adhere all directly to the card front.

Finish off the card by adding shimmer to the poinsettias on the wreath with a clear glitter marker and a few pearls to the corners of the card as well as the center of the snowflakes on the pitcher.
