Another Stampin' Up! Curvy Christmas Stamp Set Card

             

  • Stampin' Up! Curvy Christmas Stamp Set & coordinating dies
  • Pre-release Stamping Up! Quite Curvy Variety Bundle
  • Customers can begin placing order for Quite Curvy 3 November 2020
I'm so happy the Quite Curvy Variety Bundle was release early -- its a preview product bundle from the upcoming 2021 January - May Mini catalog.  Why am I so happy?  I love working with all Stampin' Up! Designer Series Paper.  However, when I work with 6" X 6" Designer Series Papers, it is difficult to get more than one card front from a 6" X 6" sheet of Designer Series Paper -- until now!  Using the dies from the Quite Curvy Variety Bundle, I can use just a 3" piece of Designer Series Paper and get two card fronts!  This new pre-release set is fast becoming my favorite, and you'll continue to see me use it not only during the holidays, but through the Winter and into Spring as well!.  I used just one sheet of one of the foil prints from the Feels Like Frost 6" X 6" Specialty Designer Series Paper two make two cards.

The basecard for this card is Rich Razzleberry.  Then a layer of Whisper White.  Then a layer of Feels Like Frost 6" X 6" Specialty Designer Series Paper (DSP) die cut using the Curvy Dies. I used the layer of Whisper White under the Feels Like Frost DSP where I stamped the images.

I used three of the stamps form the Curvy Christmas set to stamp images on the Whisper White portion of the card front.  The images are stamped in Rich Razzleberry ink.   I did some "bend" the leaves images to get them to follow the  curve of the paper.  This is possible and a feature when using a photopolymer stamp set.

I stamped the bow and fussy cut it, and then colored it with Rich Razzleberry Stampin' Blends.  I added a couple of Dimensionals to pop it up before adding it to the card front.  To add even more bling to the card front, I added several Silver Metallic Pearls to the leaves on the card front.

Deer and Sleigh Christmas card using Stampin' Up! Wishes & Wonder

        

  • Stampin' Up! Wishes & Wonder Bundle
  • North Pole Wonder Dies
  • Final week to order Joy To The World October Paper Pumpkin Kit - Order by October 10


Surprise, Surprise.  Another Stampin' Up! Wishes & Wonder Christmas Card idea!  I just can't seem to put this stamp set away!!  Today I'm using several more stamps from the Wishes & Wonder Bundle--the sleigh, a tag, the foliage, and the cute North Pole sentiment.   I found a Cherry Cobbler plaid in the Plaid Tidings 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper Pack, and I used the North Pole Wonder Dies to cut a Smoky Slate tag and the Gold Foil Deer.    I used Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blends to color a piece of Real Red Braided Linen Trim Cherry Cobbler to match the rest of the Cherry Cobbler accents on this card.

The basecard for this card is Cherry Cobbler cardstock.  Then a layer of Whisper White.  Then a plaid from the Plaid Tidings 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper Pack, which is one sale as part of the Designer Series Paper Sale until October 31, 2020.

I used the North Pole Wonder Dies to cut a tag from Smoky Slate Cardstock.  I love the detail along the bottom, and that it already has a hole punched at the top.  I used the deer from this set of dies and cut one from Gold Foil Sheets.  I also cut the sentiment, foliage and the sleigh out of Whisper White using the North Pole Wonder Dies, and then colored them with Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blends and Granny Apple Green Stampin' Blends.  The sentiment is stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink.

To change the Real Red Braided Line Trim so that it matched my card, I used Cherry Cobbler Stampin' Blends to color the Braided trim to match and then added it to my Smoky Slate tag.  Since I still had the Gilded Gems pack out from yesterday's Wishes & Wonder card, I added a couple of them to the edge of the Smoky Slate tag for a little bling.

I can't believe how much use I'm getting out of the the Wishes & Wonder Bundle.  I'm going to be well down the path of creating my Christmas Cards this year with all the fun ideas I've created using this set.   You'll enjoy creating your own unique cards using elements from the Stampin' Up!
