Sophisticated Sled with Season of Green and Gold DSP

On Sunday at my card club, my customers made this card, but I precut all the dies for them. They just had to stamp and put their cards together. They loved the card so much that several of them ordered this bundle. They fell in love with the Season of Green and Gold DSP. Everything was from the Online Exclusives. The original was inspired by Dawn's Stamping Thoughts video, but I changed it by using more Gold Foil. Our theme was Christmas in July, so I have another card that I will post tomorrow.

Stamp Set: Sophisticated Sled

Cardstock: Garden Green, Very Vanilla, Pecan Pie, Cherry Cobbler, Gold Foil, Season of Green & Gold Specialty DSP

Ink: Cherry Cobbler

Other: Stampin’ Cut and Emboss Machine, Paper Trimmer, Silicone Craft Sheet, Sophisticated Sled Dies, Paper Snips, Multipurpose Liquid Glue, Mini and Stampin’ Dimensionals, Glue Dots

1. The base of the card is Garden Green cardstock cut at 5-1/2” x 8-1/2” and scored at 2-1/8” and 4-1/4”.

2. Cut the Pecan Pie cardstock at 2” x 5-3/8” and the Season of Green & Gold Specialty Paper at 1-7/8” x 5-1/4” and layer together with Multipurpose Liquid Glue and adhere to the left-side card front.

3. Cut Very Vanilla cardstock at 2-1/4” x 3-3/4” and adhere to Garden Green cardstock cut at 2-1/2” x 4” with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Attach to the front but only the left side with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.

4. Die-cut wooden sled from Pecan Pie cardstock, the frame from Gold Foil, the skate blades from Gold Foil, the skates from Very Vanilla cardstock, the laces from Cheery Cobbler cardstock. Ink up the bow stamp (leaving off most of the skates) with Cherry Cobbler ink on Very Vanilla cardstock.

5. Using a Silicone Craft Sheet: Adhere the Pecan Pie wood frame to the Gold Foil frame using Multipurpose Liquid Glue and matching the holes on the side to each side frame so the gold frame peaks through without getting glue where the holes are. Do the same with the steering frame. Let dry on the Silicone Craft Sheet before adhering to the front with Stampin’ Dimensionals to pop it up.

6. Die-cut the sprig from Garden Green cardstock and adhere at the top of the sled with Multipurpose Glue or a Glue Dot.

7. The skates have a slit on them where you insert the Cherry Cobbler laces and once inserted just add a Stampin’ Dimensional or two to hold them in place. Adhere the gold blades to the Very Vanilla skates with Multipurpose Liquid Glue being careful not to get the glue on the Gold Foil.

8. Trim the bottom of the bow and attach the skates to the bow. Pop them up on the sled with Mini and Stampin’ Dimensionals.

9. For the inside: Cut Very Vanilla cardstock at 2-1/2” x 4”. Ink up sentiment with Cherry Cobbler ink and stamp it in the middle. Layer onto Pecan Pie cardstock at 3” x 4-1/2” and adhere to the inside of the card so the front layer aligns with the inside, so it won’t show through on the front.
