A winter/holiday season card made using the Christmas Season stamp set by Stampin' Up! for the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop

Christmas Season for the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop

Hello and welcome to the Stampers Showcase Blog Hop where our theme is Winter/Holiday. I have chosen to make a pretty Christmas card using the Christmas Season stamp set.

Colours used in this project are:

To recreate the Christmas Season card, you will need:

Soft Succulent card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛” – rounded upper right corner
Garden Green card – 5⅝” by 3⅞”– rounded upper right corner
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – rounded upper right corner – one for the inside
Basic White card – 3” by 2”
Scrap Basic White & Gold Foil

 

I stamped the larger leaf sprig in Soft Succulent ink onto scrap Basic White card. The holly leaves were stamped on the same scrap card in Garden Green ink. Using Cherry Cobbler ink I stamped the berries onto the scrap Basic White card and added the stalks in Soft Suede ink. Using the Seasonal Layers Dies I die cut all the stamped images.

The sentiment, from the Christmas to Remember stamp set was stamped in Soft Succulent ink onto the smaller panel of Basic White and die cut using the Seasonal Labels Dies. The label was added to one of the Basic White panels on Dimensionals.

Using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive I tucked the leaves and berries in around the sentiment and added a scattering of dots in Pool Party ink. I still felt something was missing so die cut a couple of the leaves from the Seasonal Layers Dies from scraps of Gold Foil and added them to the panel.

The entire panel was glued to the Garden Green layer and then to the Soft Succulent card front.

A pretty holly themed Christmas card made using the Joyful Holly stamp set by Stampin' Up!

Joyful Holly

Here is a really sweet Christmas card using the Joyful Holly stamp set and some gorgeous gold edged Poppy Parade ribbon.

To recreate the Joyful Holly card you will need:

Balmy Blue card base – 8 ¼” by 5⅞” – Rounded upper left corner
Poppy Parade – 5⅞” by 2⅜” – Rounded upper left corner
Whisper White – 1⅞” by 1⅞” – Rounded upper left corner on 2 of the panels
Whisper White – 5⅜” by 3⅝” – Rounded upper left corner – for the inside
Scrap Whisper White

I began by randomly stamping one of the outline holly images using Memento Tuxedo Black ink all over the 3 Whisper White squares. It doesn’t matter which of the 2 images you use, you can use both if you want to.

Using Old Olive ink and the corresponding inner image I added colour to all the holly leaves. I used Poppy Parade ink to stamp the berries and coloured in the background using Balmy Blue Blends Markers.

The stamped panels were glued to the Poppy Parade panel using Multipurpose Liquid Adhesive. I wrapped some of the gold edged Poppy Parade ribbon from the All the Trimmings ribbon duo pack around the panel and used Sellotape to secure it on the back. Tis ribbon is stunning, it is so sparkly and super easy to tie.

I stamped the in-fill image of the holly leaves down the centre of the Balmy Blue card base, just to give a little peek of colour. I added the decorated panel to the card front on Dimensionals.

The sentiment from the Christmas Gleaming stamp set was stamped in Poppy Parade ink onto scrap White card, trimmed it out with scissors and tucked it under the raised panel and secured it with the liquid glue.
