Holiday Catalog Showcase

 Hi Crafty Friends!

Today I'm showcasing cards created by my team, Paper Dolls.  With each new catalog debut, we swap cards to inspire each other other and show off our mad crafting skills.  Enjoy!


Carolyn Abbey used the Sounds of the Season Dies and Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper to create this gorgeous clean and simple card.


Laura Malanowski used the Snow Wonder Bundle for this sweet card.


Vicki Shaffer is going Gnome for the Holidays :)


Linda Crawford showed us how she used the Snow Wonder stamp set to make an adorable card using just stamps, ink and paper!


Cindy Brown's card is gorgeous in Bermuda Bay with silver accents.  Products used are from the Poinsettia Place Suite.



Paula Zeiher used traditional Christmas colors with the Peace & Joy Bundle and Pine Woods Dies.  So pretty!


This lovely snowy scene was created by Beth Daniels.  She used the Snow Wonder Bundle and the Winter Snow Embossing Folder.



Marta Jones used the Cherish the Season Bundle to create this unique Arrow Fold card!  The Brushed Metallic cardstock is the perfect accent for the Brightly Gleaming DSP.

Forever Fern Fall Wreath

 


Hi Crafty Friends,

I made this delicate Fall wreath using two stamps from Forever Fern -


This is a #simplestamping project - just stamps, ink & paper!


First, create a mask by punching or die-cutting a 2" circle out of Full-Adhesive Post-It Notes.  Stamp the leaf 4 times in each color as illustrated.  I used Rich Razzleberry, Granny Apple Green & Pumpkin Pie.  


Add dots using Cinnamon Cider ink; remove Post-It and the wreath is ready to stamp your sentiment in the center.  My sentiment is from a retired stamp set called One Big Meaning.


Look closely - can you find the 3 In-Color Enamel Dots?  I couldn't help myself, lol!  Love my bling.


Bumblebee, Rich Razzleberry & Pumpkin Pie - Cinnamon Cider dots


Blackberry Bliss, Mint Macaron & Old Olive - Smoky Slate dots


Rich Razzleberry, Pumpkin Pie & Granny Apple Green - Rich Razzleberry dots

How to Make a Slim Line Card

Slim Line cards are snow much fun to make (pun intended!)  The sweet little snowman has such a joyous expression on his face, this sentiment is perfection on this card.

The card base is cut from Coastal Cabana cardstock, 9" x 7-1/4", scored on the short side at 3-5/8".  The Whisper White layer is 8-3/4" x 3-3/8".  I used a piece of Whisper White the same size on the inside of the card.  

The sentiment was stamped in Real Red and die-cut with the Tasteful Labels dies.  It's popped up on Stampin' Dimensionals with a piece of Pool Party Sheer Ribbon behind.


This cutie from Snowman Season is colored with Stampin' Blends in Real Red, Shaded Spruce, Pumpkin Pie, and Smoky Slate.  The shading is done with Pool Party Light.


The snowflakes (Snowflake Wishes Stamp Set) are stamped in Coastal Cabana.  The snowflake sequins come with adhesive already on them-yay!

This card is sized to fit perfectly in a standard #10 letter-sized envelope.  This was quick & easy to make and I can't wait to stamp some more slim line cards!
