Cut cardstock, foil sheets, and designer paper pieces to the following sizes using a Stampin' Trimmer:
- card from Tranquil Tide Cardstock at 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" and scored at 4-1/4"
- 4" x 5-1/4" of Christmas carol names in various languages in black on white background from Merry Music Specialty Designer Series Paper
- 2-1/2" x 3-1/2" from Champagne Foil Sheets
- 1-3/8" x 3-1/8" from Real Red Cardstock
- 1-1/4" x 3" from Whisper White Cardstock
- 3 pieces each 1-1/2" x 3" from Pear Pizzazz Cardstock
Adhere the piece of Merry Music Specialty Designer Series Paper to the front of the Tranquil Tide card.
Pick out the French horn framelit from the Musical Instruments Framelits. Place the Champagne Foil Sheets rectangle on the Precision Base Plate on top of the Platform on the Big Shot. Place the French horn framelit on top. Place a Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot a couple of times. Use the Die Brush to remove the pieces.
Use small pieces of Tear & Tape Adhesive on the back of the French horn cut out to adhere the French horn to the left side of the card front.
Mount the holly sprig image from the Musical Season Set on Block H. Ink it up with the Tranquil Tide Ink Pad and stamp it onto the three rectangles of Pear Pizzazz Cardstock. Remember to re-ink the stamp each time.
Pick out the matching holly sprig framelit from the Musical Instruments Framelits. Place one of the stamped sprig rectangles on the Cutting Pad on top of the Magnetic Platform on the Big Shot. Place the holly sprig framelit on top so it is centered over the image. Place another Cutting Pad on top and run through the Big Shot. Repeat with the other two stamped sprig rectangles.
Use the Real Red Marker to color in the holly berries on the sprig cut outs.
Mount the "May the spirit of the season..." sentiment from the Musical Season Set on Block H. Ink it up with the Tranquil Tide Ink Pad. Stamp it in the center of the Whisper White rectangle.
Adhere the stamped sentiment to the Real Red rectangle.
Without adhering them, place two of the holly sprigs on the right side of the card front so they are pointing towards the upper right corner. Lay the stamped and matted sentiment on top. When you are happy with the placement of everything, adhere the stamped and matted sentiment over the top of the two holly sprigs.
Adhere the third holly sprig to the card front so it curves below the bottom left of the matted sentiment.
Pick out a Tranquil Tide bow from the 2017-2019 In Color Bitty Bows. Peel off the protective backing on the Dimensional already adhered to the back of the bow. Adhere the bow to the card front so it covers the end of the stem on the left of the holly sprig below the sentiment.
Use a red Sharpie Marker to color three Rhinestone Basic Jewels red while they are still attached to the sheet. Carefully peel up the three jewels making sure that you get the adhesive backings and adhere them to the card front as shown.
