P retty card perfect for a winter birthday using Stampin' Up! products.
Project Recipe
Cut cardstock pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- card from Pool Party Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" from Crumb Cake Cardstock
- 2" x 2-1/2" from Very Vanilla Cardstock
Place the Crumb Cake rectangle into the Winter Wonder Embossing Folder so that the top of the snowflake barely goes off the top of the cardstock and the right side of the snowflake barely goes off the right edge of the cardstock. Place the folder with the card stock inside on top of a Cutting Pad on your Big Shot Platform at the lowest possible setting. Place another Cutting Pad on top of the folder and run through the Big Shot.
Mount the "Enjoy the warmth of the season" sentiment from the Hearts Come Home Set on Block H. Carefully ink up only the words "Enjoy the warmth" using the side of the brush tip of the Chocolate Chip Marker. Breathe on the stamp to moisten the ink and stamp the sentiment in the lower right corner of the dry embossed Crumb Cake layer.
Lay a gold Foil Snowflake on top of the dry embossed Crumb Cake layer on the left side without adhering it. Figure out the positioning of the foil snowflake so it covers the lower left side of the dry embossed snowflake.
Use the Clear Wink of Stella Glitter Brush to add some sparkle to the exposed portions of the dry embossed snowflake.
Cut a 4-3/4" piece of the silver tinsel trim from the Mini Tinsel Trim Combo Pack.
Lay the tinsel trim piece across the bottom of the dry embossed Crumb Cake layer so it is just under the stamped sentiment. Flip the rectangle over and fold the ends of the tinsel trim over. Adhere the ends of the tinsel trim in place with pieces of Tear & Tape Adhesive.
Remove the protective backing from the Tear & Tape strips and add more SNAIL to the back of the Crumb Cake layer. Adhere the layer to the front of the Pool Party card.
Cut a 3" piece of silver tinsel trim from the Mini Tinsel Trim Combo Pack. Slide it under the tinsel trim of the card front on the left side and tie in place using a half knot. Trim ends and fray edges.
Carefully put some SNAIL on the back of the gold Foil Snowflake and adhere it in place on the card front. Be careful not to let the edges of the snowflake go over the fold in the center of the card.
Put a medium-sized Clear Faceted Gem in the center of the foil snowflake.
Mount the snowflake sweater image from the Christmas Sweaters Set on Block D. Ink it up with the Chocolate Chip Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the Very Vanilla rectangle.
Use the Pool Party Marker to color in the snowflake, collar, cuffs, and bottom edge of the sweater.
Cut the sweater image out by hand using Paper Snips.
Adhere the sweater to the lower right side of the card front using Stampin' Dimensionals. Position it just over the sentiment so it overlaps the foil snowflake and dry embossed snowflake just a bit.
Put a medium-sized gold circle from the Metallic Enamel Shapes in the center of the snowflake on the sweater.
