Christmas Means More


.

 I love this sentiment from the movie "It's a Wonderful Life" with Jimmy Stewart.  This stamp set is called Christmas Means More and there are other sentiments in this set that I like too. This card was inspired by Mary Fish, although I didn't have the same ribbon she had which was the Shaded Spruce Wonder of the Season Ribbon Combo Pack.  I used her measurements for my card.  

1.     The base of the card is 4-1/4” x 11” and scored at 3-1/2” and 9.

2.    Cut the Tis the Season DSP at 3-1/4” x 4” and 1-3/4” x 4.

3.    Whisper White cardstock is die cut with the Stitched Shape Dies at 2-5/8” Square and with the Stitched Rectangle Dies at 3-3/8” x 4-3/4”.

4.    Cut the Shaded Spruce cardstock at 3-1/8” square and the Cherry Cobbler cardstock at 2-7/8” square.

5.    Adhere the DSP to outside flaps of the cards with Stampin’ Seal Adhesive.

6.    Adhere half the Shaded Spruce square to the left side with Stampin’ Seal Adhesive.

7.    Cut the Silver Metallic Edge Ribbon about 14”.  Use Stampin’ Seal to attach the ribbon on the Shaded Spruce square and then wrap around the entire card.

8.    Attach two Jingle Bells to some Metallic Mesh Ribbon and tie it all together in a bow on the side.

9.    Ink up the sentiment with Shaded Spruce ink and stamp on the Whisper White Stitched Shape Square.  Adhere to the Cherry Cobbler Square with Seal Adhesive.

10.  Attach to Shaded Spruce Square with Seal Adhesive or Dimensionals.

11.   Color the bells with Smoky Slate Blends.  Add Wink of Stella.

Nothing's Better Than

This stamp set Nothing's Better Than in the annual catalog was inspired by Million Sales Achiever Connie Stewart.  It is such a cute stamp set and it coordinates with Love You More Than Dies which can be purchased as a Bundle to save 10%. I made several items using this set by purchasing a tutorial from a fellow demonstrator, Margarita Hindman.  It is such a fun set because it screams a lot of things I love such as cookies, chocolate, coffee, and cocktails.  So if you like all those things, this set is for you too!   It has lots of sentiments to mix and match in all different ways.

Lasting Lily

Can you believe it's January, 2019?  Well, I stamped lots of Christmas cards in December, but never found the time to put them on my blog.  So, I'm going to try to do better this month.  It is Sale-a-Bration time so that means for every $50, you earn free product from the Sale-a-Bration Catalog.
I love lilies, so this set "Lasting Lily" is a FREE set earned by spending $100 that I decided to get right away.  I also made it into a Sympathy card because a club member has lost several friends recently and although, sympathy cards are not my favorite to make, this set actually comes with the sentiment "With Sympathy" but it could also be a Get Well, Thank You or Birthday card as well.
Here are my instructions for my card:

Stamp Set:  Lasting Lily (2019 SAB)

Cardstock:  Gorgeous Grape, Whisper White

Ink:  Highland Heather, Granny Apple Green

Other:  Big Shot, Stitched Label Framelits, Rectangle Stitched Framelits Dies, ½” Granny Apple Green Textured Ribbon, Paper Snips, Stamparatus, Dimensionals



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

2.    The second layer is Whisper White cardstock inserted into the Big Shot using the largest Stitched Rectangle Framelit Die.

3.    Ink up the lily stamps with Highland Heather ink and stamp onto the Whisper White rectangle.  Ink up the leaves using Granny Apple Green ink and stamp the leaves to the flowers (May use Stamparatus to align them.)

4.    Stamp flowers again on Whisper White cardstock scrap with Highland Heather ink and cut them out with the Paper Snips.  Adhere with Dimensionals over the flowers already stamped on the Whisper White rectangle.

5.    Wrap ½” Granny Apple Green Textured Ribbon around the rectangle and use Scotch tape on the back to hold in place.

6.    Die cut a Stitched Label Framelit.  Ink up “With Sympathy” with Gorgeous Grape ink onto the label.  Attach over the ribbon with Dimensionals.
