Sparkle of the Season

This is a card that is somewhat cased from Stampinanne.com. I did this for some of my customer's Christmas cards this year. Although, I think I might have omitted the "Merry Christmas" on the front for a few of them. I haven't got to play with this set and unfortunately, it is retiring. Here are my instructions for this card:

Stamp Set: Sparkle of the Season

Cardstock: Smoky Slate. Basic White, Silver Foil, Pattern Party DSP

Ink: Memento Black

Other: Paper Trimmer, Tailored Tag Punch, Wonderful Snowflakes, Black and White Gingham Paper from the Pattern Party DSP, Checks and Dots Embossing Folder, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Dimensionals

1. The base of the card is Smoky Slate cardstock cut at 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” and scored at 4-1/4” in the middle.

2. The second layer is Basic Black cardstock cut at 4” x 5-1/4” and the Basic White cardstock is cut at 3-7/8” x 5-1/8” and inserted into the Dots Embossing Folder twice. Adhere together with Multipurpose Glue and adhere to the base of the card.

3. Add a gingham strip of the Pattern Party DSP cut at 1-1/8” x 5-1/8” and adhere to the center of the Basic White layer.
