Christmas Crew Snowman Cheer Card

Greetings! 

Today's card features the adorable snowman from the Christmas Crew bundle sending cheer amidst a wintry forest print from the Whispering Woods Designer Series Paper (DSP).  This pack of paper has gorgeous soft prints in hues of greens and blues and...for every pack of paper purchased, $3 is donated to organizations to help spread a little holiday cheer.  


Techniques include coloring with Stampin' Blends and Wink of Stella, and die cutting.

==============================================================================

Beverly's Tip of the Day

Coloring with the Wink of Stella® Clear Glitter brush is a great way to bring your projects some subtle sparkle.  For the snowman on this card, it was the perfect way to add shading without adding color.  I simply brushed the Wink of Stella along the edges where the little detail marks are.  To carry the sparkle a step further, I also added the Wink of Stella along the hilly edges of the snow and a few added sweeps of the glitter brush to suggest dimension in the snow area of the DSP print.

======================================================================

Creative Celebrations Magical Christmas Wreath Card

Greetings! 

Today's card features a print from the Creative Celebrations Mix & Match Designer Series Papers (DSP) and a greeting from the Magical Christmas Hot Foil dies.  With all the beautiful prints in the DSP pack and multiple greetings in one die, this is a great pairing for stunning cards.

Techniques include metallic magic with the hot foil dies.

==============================================================================

Beverly's Tip of the Day

When working with the Hot Foil Die system, I find it helpful to do multiples at a time, especially when using a hot foil die like Magical Christmas.  With the variety of greetings and a few adorable accessories in the die, it's hard to choose just one color for the cardstock and foil.  I chose 5 or 6 cardstock colors plus white, did a variety of foil colors, so now I have an assortment ready to attach to my cards as I make them.  I feel like I'm ahead of the game because the greetings are just waiting to be added to the card.  

The metallic finish to each message adds a touch of elegance to every project.

======================================================================

Gather Your Supplies:

  • Magical Christmas Hot Foil Dies
  • Barely Bluch cardstock 
    • card base  5-1/2 x 8-1/2 scored & folded at 4-1/4
  • Peaceful Pine cardstock
    • 5-1/4 x 4 panel
  • Cloud Cover two tone cardstock
    • 5 x 3-3/4 for entire die
