Stamping with Julie Gearinger: Peace, Goodwill to Men

Hi Friends!

I hope all of you are having a blessed week so far! Today I am sharing another fairly quick Christmas card using stamps, dies and other supplies all from Stamp Simply!

I love the fonts on the Christmas Peace stamp set and combined the poinsettia image from the Floral Clusters Winter Poinsettia with the wreath image from the Seasonal Wreaths-Fall/Winter along with lace and an embossed background.

To create this card:

Emboss a piece of cream cardstock using the Darice Wire Fence Embossing Folder, trim the embossed panel and mount onto a piece of Luxury Pearlescent Gold Metallic Cardstock.

Adhere the panel to a white card base.

Adhere a piece of the 1.75” Valentina Ivory Lace to the front.

De-static two additional pieces of cream cardstock with an embossing powder tool.

Ink the poinsettia image from the Floral Clusters Winter Poinsettia stamp set and the wreath image from the Seasonal Wreaths – Fall/Winter with Versamark ink, stamp onto the prepared panels, apply gold embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Once the heat embossing has cooled, die cut each image with the coordinating dies (die cut an additional piece from cream cardstock to layer behind the image).

Layer the poinsettia with the wreath to leave an opening for the sentiment.

Repeat the above steps with the verse sentiment from the Christmas Peace stamp set, trimming the panel to fit behind the layered poinsettia wreath. Adhere behind the poinsettia and wreath image.

Mount the poinsettia wreath image to the card front using dimensional foam.

Add a few champagne pearls to the floral center to finish off the card.

As many of you who follow my blog know that I enjoy participating with online challenges and will be linking this card to the Word Art Wednesday #573-#574 “Anything Goes” Challenge.
