Night Divine


This is such a beautiful set in the 2023 Holiday Mini Catalog called Night Divine.  It will retire the end of this year, and unfortunately, the O Holy Night DSP is already sold out.  Thankfully, I have a few sheets of it left.  This was another Kathy Bedell card, and it is a beautiful card that she made.  I love how the Stars at Night Hybrid Embossing Folder embosses and die-cuts at the same time.

Jolly Words

This was a card that I believe I saw on the Stampin' Up! website, but not sure who to give credit to.  I just knew that I loved it so much, I wanted to case it.  The Jolly Words stamp set will be retiring soon, but it is such a cute set to have.  It also has cute little elves in the set with the word JOY, and 'Tis the Season.  The trees, however, from the Forever Forest Dies, are not retiring, just the Bundle.

Here are my instructions for this card:

Stamp Sets:  Jolly Words

Cardstock:  Thick Basic White, Basic White, Mossy Meadow, Gold Foil, Stargazing DSP

Ink:  Tuxedo Black Memento

Stampin’ Blends:  Real Red, Copper Clay, Crumb Cake, Mossy Meadow, Balmy blue

Other:  Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine, Deckled Circles, Forever Forest Dies, Paper Snips, Multipurpose Liquid Glue

 

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

2.    The second layer is Stargazing DSP cut at 4-1/4” x 5-1/2” and adhered to the front with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

3.    The third layer is Basic White cardstock cut with the third largest Deckled Circle Dies to represent the moon.

4.    Ink up the Santa and reindeer stamp with Tuxedo Black Memento and stamp on the Basic White Moon.  Color it in with the Stampin’ Blends.

5.    Die-cut Mossy Meadow trees from the Forever Forest Dies and adhere with Multipurpose Liquid Glue at the bottom with some on top of the moon below Santa.

6.    Trim off the excess cardstock from the moon and trees.

7.    Die-cut Gold Foil stars from the Forever Forest Dies and attach to the card with Multipurpose Liquid Glue but just a dot, not a lot.  Use the Take Your Pick Tool to pick them up the stars with the tacky end to put over the glue on the card.

Sparkling Snowflakes



We had a few snowflakes at my house the other day but not enough to really accumulate, but we have cold, cold weather coming for the next few days.  This is another card that uses the Snowflake Magic Specialty Designer Series Paper, but it uses the Lost Lagoon color.  The silver snowflakes make it so beautiful.  This DSP is retiring soon, so better order it before it's gone for good.  This is another Kathy Bedell creation.
