Another Feels Like Frost Christmas Card


  • Stampin' Up! Feels Like Frost Specialty Paper
  • Missed the September Halloween Paper Pumpkin?  One more chance!
  • New Paper Trimmer by Stampin' Up! Coming Soon.  See it below.

Stampin' Up! Feels Like Frost

Today's card uses the beautiful Feels Like Frost Specialty 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper.  This paper includes outdoor winter scenes on one side and the opposite side includes a silver foil and white print.  It's had NOT to make a beautiful card using this wonderful paper. 







The basecard for this card is Thick Whisper White.  Then a layer of Seaside Spray.  Then a print from the 6" X 6" Feels Like Frost Specialty Designer Series Paper.  I used the remaining piece of the Designer Series Paper from the 6" X 6" sheet to create the header, where I stamped a sentiment from Perfectly Plaid  in Seaside Spray ink. 

    


  


I added a Seaside Spray mat to the header piece as well  Then I tied a piece of the Seaside Spray 1/4" Metallic Ribbon into a bow and tied it across the top of the card.   

Before adhering the header, I used dies from the Beautiful Boughs Dies set to cut White Vellum to create wispy pieces for the card front.  I love the soft look it created on top of the wintry scene on the Feels Like Frost Designer Series Papers.       






You'll find many creative ways to use the pieces in the Brightly Gleaming Suite to create beautiful holiday cards you'll be proud to send to those you love.    You'll love everything you make with this suite.

Stampin' Up! Brightly Gleaming Suite

This was the first card I made with Brightly Gleaming Suite.  I created it way back in early August and decided to hold it for later...and I promptly forgot about it!
  I was so surprised when I looked back at my blog posts and it was nowhere to be found.  I was cutting multiples of the card for my card class this weekend, and realized how much I really liked the Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Papers and the background created by the Stylish Scroll Embossing Folder.    







I selected a basecard of Very Vanilla for today's card.  Then I dry embossed a piece of Sahara Sand using the Stylish Scroll Embossing Folder. 

    


  


The green and copper-foil tag is another print from the Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper package.  

The image layer is matted in Copper Foil Sheets.  Then a layer of ornaments--another print from the Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper Package.  The ornament is a third print from the Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper Package.  It is punched using one of the punches in the coordinating Gleaming Ornaments Punch Pack, which is also pat of the Brightly Gleaming Suite.       





The sentiment is from the Christmas Gleaming Stamp Set.  It is stamped in Mossy Meadow and then hand cut (fussy-cut) and mounted on Dimensionals.  The 3/8" Linen Ribbon with White edges is tied in a single knot, and it is from the Magnolia Lane Ribbon Combo Pack from the annual catalog.   




You'll find many creative ways to use the pieces in the Brightly Gleaming Suite to create beautiful holiday cards you'll be proud to send to those you love.    You'll love everything you make with this suite.       


Recipe

  • Stamps:  Christmas Gleaming
  • Ink:   Mossy Meadow
  • Paper:  Thick Very Vanilla, Copper Foil Sheets, Sahara Sand, three different prints from the Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper
  • Accessories:  Gleaming Ornaments Punch Pack, Stylish Scroll Embossing Folder, Magnolia Lane Ribbon Combo Pack, Multipurpose Glue, Dimensionals
