Here are my cards made for the August Christmas Stampathon where our theme is ‘Baubles’. I have made my cards using the Scenic Adventure stamp set and Bauble Blooms Dies.
Colours used to make these cards are:
To recreate the scenic bauble card, you will need:
Thick Basic White card base – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛”
Shaded Spruce card – 5⅛” by 3⅜”
Balmy Blue card – 5” by 3¼”
Scrap Basic White, Shaded Spruce and Silver Foil card
Using Balmy Blue ink, I stamped the large Falling Snow stamp on the piece of Balmy Blue card. The stamped piece was then glued to the Shaded Spruce panel.

From scrap Basic White card, I die cut a bauble using the Bauble Blooms Dies.

The pine tree, from the Scenic Adventure stamp set, was stamped onto the die cut bauble with Shaded Spruce ink, first and second generation. I added the ground using the ‘watery’ image from the same stamp set with Cloud Cover ink.

I used a Blending Brush and Balmy Blue ink to add colour around the die cut bauble and stamped the ‘dotty’ image, from the Coneflower Celebrations stamp set in the same ink.

Silver bauble hangers were added; these were die cut from scrap Silver Foil. I added a little Silver Trim to the hanger of the bauble using a rolled up Mini Glue Dot and taped the other end of the silver trim to the back of the Shaded Spruce card. The bauble was secured in place with Dimensionals. The whole panel was adhered to the Thick Basic White card front.

The sentiment from the Tractor & Co stamp set was stamped in Versamark ink onto scrap Shaded Spruce card. I covered it with Silver Embossing Powder and set it with my Heat Tool before adding it to the card front.
