A Christmas card celebrating the Power of 3 and made using the Festive Friends stamp set and the Woven Textures designer Series paper from Stampin' Up!

Three Festive Friends Card – Stamping With Friends Blog Hop

Stamping with Friends Blog Hop – 1

Hello and welcome to the Stamping With Friends Blog Hop where we are showcasing the power of 3’s. It is generally recognised in the art/craft world that odd numbers or things positioned to form triangles are very pleasing to the eye. I have made my card using the adorable Festive Friends stamp set.

Colours used to make this card are:

 

To recreate the three festive friends card, you will need

Shy Shamrock card base – 8 ¼” by 5⅞” scored at 4⅛”
Basic White card – 5⅝” by 3⅜”
Woven Textures dsp – 5⅞” by ⅜” x 3
Basic White card – 5½” by 3¾” – for the inside
Scrap Basic White card

 

The three strips of Woven Textures dsp were adhered to the bottom of the 5⅝” by 3⅜” panel of basic White card and adhered the whole piece to the Shy Shamrock card front.
