Whew! I am barely making it again this week! I have a good excuse this time though - I called a friend that I haven't talked to in a very long time and we had such a good, long conversation. It was worth the scurrying to post now. :)
I'm on Week 10 now, of my 12 Weeks of Christmas Cards! It's hard to believe that A) December 1st will be here in about 20 minutes, and B) that I've only got TWO more of my 12 Weeks of Christmas Cards! I swear, once September hits the weeks just fly by and now here we are...
This week's cards rely mostly on the pretty papers and an embossed background for some added texture and interest. You need three pieces of designer series paper, which I glued flat to the embossed piece of Cloud Cover. I suppose you could pop them up too...that would be interesting.
Then I added a small bit of Secret Sea Faux Linen ribbon and glued my greeting right on top of it.
Paper Measurements:
- Secret Sea: 5 1/2" x 8 1/2", scored at 4 1/4"
- Basic White: 4" x 5 1/4", for inside of card
- Cloud Cover: 4" x 5 1/4", embossed with Eyelet folder
- Peaceful Gardens Designer Series Paper: (3) 1 3/4" wide x 1 5/8" tall (pay attention to the direction of your pattern, if there is one)
There is NO stamping on these cards! Similar to last week, I used the Greetings for You Mix & Match ephemera.
I finished with some Low Profile Sparkle Gems in Secret Sea.
Supplies you'll need to create these (Stampin' Up, unless otherwise noted. Items may be retired.):
Stamps: None
Ink: None
Paper: Secret Sea, Cloud Cover, Peaceful Gardens Designer series paper
Other: Eyelet embossing folder, Secret Sea Faux Linen ribbon, Low Profile Sparkle Dots, Greetings for You Mix & Match Ephemera pack
Join me this Thursday night as I'm back on my regular schedule. I'll be making some cards that will be perfect for gift-giving occasions - holidays or birthdays! Tune in!
