Perfectly Plaid - Old Olive

Plaid is in!  This plaid Christmas tree stamp from Perfectly Plaid goes great with the Old Olive Toile Tidings DPS,  I love to use the Subtle Embossing Folder in the background which it makes it look like linen.  Here are my instructions for this card.



Stamp Set:  Perfectly Plaid

Cardstock:  Old Olive, Thick Very Vanilla, Very Vanilla, Toile Tidings DSP.

Ink:  Old Olive

Other:  Big Shot, Subtle Embossing Folder, Stitched Nested Labels Dies, Pine Tree Punch, Linen Thread, Star Designer Elements, Multipurpose Glue, Dimensionals, Glue Dot



1.     The base of the card is Thick Very Vanilla cardstock cut at 4-1/4” x 11” and scored at 5-1/2” in the middle.

2.    The second layer is Old Olive cardstock cut at 4”x 5-1/4” and inserted into the Subtle Embossing Folder and run through the Big Shot.

3.    The third layer is Toile Tidings DSP cut at 4” x 2-1/2” and adhered to the middle of the Old Olive cardstock with Multipurpose Glue.

4.    Use Very Vanilla cardstock to die cut using the second largest die from the Stitched Nested Labels Dies.  Ink up the “Merry Christmas” with Old Olive ink and stamp at the bottom of the Very Vanilla Die.  Use Dimensional to pop up on the card front.

5.    Ink up the plaid Christmas tree stamp with Old Olive and stamp on a scrap of Very Vanilla cardstock.  Use the Pine Tree Punch to punch it out.  Attach Dimensionals on the back and adhere above the Merry Christmas sentiment.  Attach a bow made from Linen Thread with a Glue Dot at the bottom of the tree and add a gold star at  the top using the Star Designer Elements.

Winter Woods

Winter Woods is such a beautiful stamp set that can be used for any occasion, not just for holidays. I've used this set a lot but decided to make this card a Christmas card.  I combined the colors Shaded Spruce and Mint Macaron together which I think are great together.  I did use the retired DSP Frosted Floral Specialty Paper but it just went well with my card.  So if you still have some, you might want to use it for your card too.  Here are the instructions for my card:




Stamp Set:  Winter Woods, Merry Christmas to All

Cardstock:  Shaded Spruce, Mint Macaron, Frosted Floral Specialty DSP (Retired 2018)

Ink:  Shaded Spruce

Other:  Big Shot, Subtle Embossing Folder, Merry Christmas Thinlets Dies, Beautiful Boughs Dies, Sizzix Adhesive Sheets, Snail Adhesive, Dimensionals




1.     The base of the card is Shaded Spruce cardstock cut at 4-1/4” x 11” and scored at 5-1/2” in the middle.

2.    The second layer is Mint Macaron cardstock cut at 4” x 5-1/4” and inserted into the Subtle Embossing Folder and run through the Big Shot.  Adhere to the front of the card.

3.    Ink up the large pine tree from Winter Woods stamp set with Shaded Spruce ink and use the Stamparatus to center it onto the 2-7/8” x 3-5/8” Frosted Floral Specialty DSP.  Layer onto the 2-1/2” x 3-1/2” Shaded Spruce cardstock.  Adhere with Snail Adhesive to the front of the card towards the right side.

4.    Use the Sizzix Adhesive Sheet on Shaded Spruce cardstock to die cut the “Merry” from the Merry Christmas Thinlets and the pines from the Beautiful Boughs Dies (2019 Holiday).  Die cut through the Big Shot and adhere to the front of the card.

5.    Ink up “Christmas” from Merry Christmas to All stamp set with Shaded Spruce on the Frosted Floral Specialty DSP and run it through the Subtle Embossing Folder and attached with Dimensionals to the card towards the left.
