Clean and Layered- A Color, Theme and Sketch Challenge!




Hi Stampers! 

I wanted to create another Christmas card this weekend and decided to play along with the Pals Paper Arts PPA230 Color Challenge and The Fusion {Merry Christmas} Challenge.

This card was also created for the Splitcoaststampers Fan Club December 2014 SCSCCDEC14 Christmas Card Challenge (not a Fan Club Member yet?  Check out the details here)...

Again, if you have not already visited the above sites, I hope you will find the time to do so- they both have fabulous Design Teams as well as inspirational galleries! 

I used quite a few of my scraps to create this Clean and Layered (CAL) card:

Ink the sentiment from Merry Little Christmas using Cherry Cobbler Classic Ink and stamp onto Very Vanilla cardstock. 

Use the Big Shot™ with the Banner Collection Framelits™ to cut the banner and cut another banner (the same size) from a piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock.  Mount the Cherry Cobbler banner behind the sentiment allowing a bit of the Cherry Cobbler to show at the bottom.

Adhere a piece of Trim the Tree Designer Series Paper (DSP) to the top of the embossed Very Vanilla panel (I found this embossed piece in my scraps) and sponged a bit of Baked Brown Sugar Classic Ink over the white plaid to tone it down a bit :-)

Mount the sentiment banner to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals® and adhere the layered background panel onto a piece of Baked Brown Sugar cardstock.

Trim the panel and add the 1” Cherry Cobbler Stitched Edge Grosgrain Double Ribbon Bow.   

Mount the entire card front onto the Cherry Cobbler card base.

Stamp the gingerbread men from Scentsational Season using Baked Brown Sugar Classic Ink onto Very Vanilla cardstock and cut each gingerbread man out using the Holiday Collection Framelits™.

Adhere the gingerbread men to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals®.

Using the Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blendabilities™ marker, color the Pearls and once dried, add to the gingerbread to finish off the card.

Stamp Sets: Merry Little Christmas, Scentsational Season (both retired)

Ink: Cherry Cobbler, Baked Brown Sugar; Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blendabilities™ Marker

Paper: Very Vanilla, Baked Brown Sugar, Cherry Cobbler, Trim the Tree DSP

Accessories: Big Shot™, retired Snowflake Textured Impressions™ Embossing Folder, Banner Collection and Holiday Collection Framelits™, Pearls, 1” Cherry Cobbler Stitched Grosgrain Ribbon
