Sneak Peek of the Frosted Gingerbread Bundle from Stampin' Up!

     

  • Frosted Gingerbread Stamp Set and Gingerbread Dies
  • Stampin' Up! Kit Collection - convenient for travel or at home
  • 15% off Select Designer Series Papers until 2 August 2021
I'm having a fun afternoon playing with my Stampin' Up! preorder from the July-December 2021 Mini Catalog, a benefit of being a demonstrator.  Today I pulled out items from the Gingerbread & Peppermint Suite , including the Frosted Gingerbread Bundle, the Kraft 6" X 6"  Paper Pack and the Gingerbread & Peppermint 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper.  I decided to use two of the new In Colors I felt would be perfect for Christmas Cards, and I was right.  I used Soft Succulent and Evening Evergreen along with the Kraft Paper Pack to create my layers.  The bell, star and tree images were die cut from the Gingerbread & Peppermint 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper.   The sentiment and stars were from the Frosted Gingerbread Stamp Set. I added some Genial Gems and 3/8" Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon to add to the festive feel of the cards.  The Frosted Gingerbread Bundle and the Gingerbread and Peppermint Suite will be available for customers to purchase 3 August 2021.

The basecard for this card is Soft Succulent Cardstock.  Then a die cut from Evening Evergreen Cardstock.  Then a stitched, scalloped layer from the Kraft 6" X 6" Paper Pack.  The die cut layers we die cut using the Scalloped Contours Dies.

The label for the sentiment is from the new Seasonal Labels Dies.  It was cut from Basic White.  The sentiment is from the Frosted Gingerbread Stamp Set as are the stars stamped on the label.   The sentiment is stamped in Evening Evergreen and the stars were stamped in Soft Succulent ink.  Gingerbread Dies include outline dies to cut out images from the Gingerbread & Peppermint 6" X 6" Designer Series Paper. I chose bells, stars and trees, and there are several additional images to select from.

I added a 3/8" bow in Soft Succulent Open Weave Ribbon, and added a few Genial Gems.  The die cut images from the Designer Series Paper are popped up on dimensionals before adding to the card front.
