Join me for my first Christmas Card Class of the season! I've got a different Christmas Card class planned for September, October, and November. This month's Christmas Card Class is a Stamp-a-Stack featuring the Season of Green & Gold Specialty paper, some gems, and the cards are all 5" x 7"! I found Gold envelopes to go with the kits that I'm very excited about.
Since this is a Stamp-a-Stack - you'll be making multiples of these cards. When I list the materials below each card, the quantity will be what is needed for all cards of that design. Two cards for most designs, three cards for one design. Nine cards total.
Just a reminder that I am generally Live on-line every Thursday at 8:00pm ET. I stream to BOTH YouTube and Facebook simultaneously.
If you are not able to catch me live, you can watch over on YouTube. If the picture does not appear below, you can click HERE to get to it on YouTube.
Watch the class video for free, and use your own supplies to create your cards. OR - order a class packet with all of the card kits, envelopes, pack of Designer Series Paper (DSP), and gems (US Only, sorry). YOU will be cutting all of your own DSP. Everything else will be prepped in your card kits.
I'll be using a variety of Holiday greeting stamps. Use what you have, or I'm offering a few Add-Ons.

Let's get into it! You will need to watch the video to see how I'm cutting the designer series paper. Which direction the patterns should go, which to cut first, etc.
The first card is a landscape Tri-Fold card. You will make two cards like this one. You will need to hand-cut some bells and greenery from the bells & greenery sheet of DSP.
Paper Measurements:
- Mossy Meadow: (2) 7" x 11", score at 2 1/2", and 7 1/2"
- Mossy Meadow: (2) 3 1/4" x 6 3/4", embossed with Forever Plaid folder
- Very Vanilla: (2) 4 3/4" x 6 3/4", for inside of card
- Season of Green & Gold DSP (Mistletoe print): (2) 2 1/4" x 6 3/4"
- Mossy Meadow: (2) 3 1/2" x 5 1/2"
- Mossy Meadow: (2) 3 1/4" x 5 1/4"
- Gold Foil: (2) 2 1/2" x 4 1/2"
- Very Vanilla: (2) 2 1/4" x 4 1/4"
Hand-cut some of the bells and greenery to attach to your card front. When I stamped the greetings, I stamped "CHRISTMAS" first, and then gold-embossed the "merry".
Finish off with a few of the Pecan Pie Ribboned Gems.
Here the card is opened -
Stamps: More Wishes
Ink: Mossy Meadow, Versamark
Paper: Mossy Meadow, Very Vanilla, Gold Foil, Season of Green & Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper
Other: Forever Plaid embossing folder, Metallic Embossing Powders (Gold), Pecan Pie and Clear Ribboned Gems
You'll make two of these cards as well, and you will use the SAME piece of designer series paper that you cut for the first set of cards. This is the back side of that print.
We're using Very Vanilla Thick for this card base - I have plenty for class kits, although it's not sold anymore. You'll also need to hand-cut some more greenery bits from the Non-bells paper.
Notice this embossed layer covers the entire card front. It is 5" x 7". If you want a border, cut this down. Your card kit will have 5" x 7" pieces, already embossed.
Paper Measurements:
- Very Vanilla Thick: (2) 7" x 10", scored at 5"
- Very Vanilla: (2) 5" x 7", embossed with Forever Plaid folder
- Season of Green & Gold DSP (Vanilla/Gold burst print): (2) 3 1/2" x 7"
- Gold Foil: (2) 2 3/4" x 2 3/4"
- Very Vanilla: (2) 2 1/2" x 2 1/2'
Gold-emboss your greeting - pick something that will fit inside that square. Add some of the greenery behind the greeting.
I took a Light Old Olive Stampin' Blend and colored some of the Clear Ribboned Gems so they are a little green. They turned out very light.
Stamps: Greetings of the Season
Ink: Versamark
Paper: Very Vanilla (Thick and Regular), Gold Foil, Season of Green & Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper
Other: Old Olive Stampin Blend, Pecan Pie & Clear Ribboned Gems
With the third card design, you will make three cards. This is a Stack & Shuffle design. You'll cut three different patterns of DSP, stack them together and cut at the same time. You don't to measure where you cut them. Just cut a long slice off the side, then cut the remaining strip into two pieces so that one is smaller than the other.
Paper Measurements:
- Mossy Meadow: (3) 7" x 10", scored at 5"
- Old Olive: (3) 4 3/4" x 6 3/4"
- Very Vanilla: (3) 4 3/4" X 6 3/4", for inside of card
- Season of Green & Gold DSP: (3 different prints) 4 1/2" x 6 1/2" each
- Mossy Meadow: (3) approx 3" circle, cut with Stylish Shapes dies
- Very Vanilla: (3) approx 2 3/4" circle, cut with Spotlight on Nature dies
This time, I stamped the greeting using two different sets and fonts. I like a mix of fonts. Print and script. Stamp "MERRY" in Old Olive, so it's a little lighter. "Christmas" is in Mossy Meadow.
If you want to tuck in some hand-cut greenery - do it!
Stamps: More Wishes, Greetings of the Season
Ink: Old Olive, Mossy Meadow
Paper: Mossy Meadow, Old Olive, Very Vanilla, Season of Green & Gold Specialty designer series papers
Other: Stylish Shapes dies, Spotlight on Nature dies, Pecan Pie & Clear Ribboned gems
For the final design, you'll make two cards. This time you'll cut six pieces of DSP - (3) in one print, and (3) in another and mix them together. You will also need to hand-cut some more greenery pieces, or stamp/die-cut some if you have the Golden Greenery bundle (or something similar).
Paper Measurements:
- Garden Green: (2) 7" x 10", scored at 5"
- Very Vanilla: (4) 4 3/4" x 6 3/4", two for inside the cards
- Season of Green & Gold DSP (two prints): (3) EACH PRINT 2 1/4" x 4 3/4"
- Gold Foil: (2) 2 7/8" x 4 1/2", cut with Countryside Corners dies
- Very Vanilla: (2) 2 3/4" x 4 3/8", cut with next size down Countryside Corners dies
Add some hand-cut greenery, and finish off with some Pecan Pie gems.
Stamps: More Wishes, Greetings of the Season
Ink: Garden Green, Shaded Spruce
Paper: Garden Green, Very Vanilla, Gold Foil, Season of Green & Gold Specialty Paper
Other: Countryside Corners dies, Pecan Pie & Clear Ribboned Gems
That's all, folks! For this class anyway. :) I hope you enjoy these cards, and remember - if you don't have these papers or colors, copy the card designs with whatever you have! It would be amazing to see these done in a totally different color/paper scheme.
Don't forget about the dates listed at the top of this post. If you want a class packet, email me at tonistamps@yahoo.com. Cut off is a week from today - Sep 29th.
