Tidings of Christmas

This week I’m focusing on the 6 by 6 inch DSP, Tidings of Christmas. It was hard to pick just three to use. 

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - My Elegant Cards - Tidings of Christmas - Stars are Shining

This is a very simple card which is easily reproducible in quantity.

First I cut a 2 by 5 1/2 inch strip of the DSP which means you can get 3 cards out of one piece of DSP. On top of that, there are another 7 sheets of the same design which means a lot of cards. Just make sure you have enough cardstock to make the bases.

The DSP was matted in Cherry Cobbler and then added to a Whisper White card base. The sentiment, from Stars are Shining, was still out on my desk and was stamped in Cherry Cobbler. After die cutting using the Stitched Rectangle dies, it was carefully popped up with dimensions. I say carefully because you don’t want any dimensionals on top of the decorative strip or your label will be wonky.  Finally I added a few champagne basic rhinestones.

I’ll demonstrate this card along with 2 others at my Facebook Live later on today at 11am EDT.

Tidings of Christmas

This week I’m focusing on the 6 by 6 inch DSP, Tidings of Christmas with a little help from a couple of stamp sets.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - My Elegant Cards - Tidings of Christmas - Stars are Shining - Snowflake Wishes

I began by stamping the sentiment from Stars are Shining in Evening Evergreen. Next I matted a 2 inch strip in silver foil and added it to the card base. After that I stamped the biggest snowflake from Snowflake Wishes and heat embossed it in silver. I trimmed down the piece of Whisper White  until it looked right and then matted it with Evening Evergreen. This was then added to the rest of the card using dimensionals.

I’ll demonstrate this card along with 2 others at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am EDT.

Tidings of Christmas

This week I’m focusing on the 6 by 6 inch DSP, Tidings of Christmas. It has some really good patterns.

As you probably know by now, I love to feature the designer series papers that Stampin’ Up! is so talented at creating. Here I matted a 2 1/2 by 3 inch piece of the Tidings of Christmas DSP with Evening Evergreen. The sentiment, stamped in the same color, comes from the Stars are Shining stamp set. It was the right shape and happened to still be out on my desk. 

I’ll demonstrate this card along with 2 others at my Facebook Live on Sunday at 11am EDT.

Stars are Shining

Today I’m pairing the Stars are Shining bundle with the Evergreen Forest 3D embossing folder. 

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - My Elegant Cards - Stars are Shining - Starlit Punch - Stitched Rectangle Dies - Evergreen Forest 3D embossing folder

First I dry embossed a piece of Evening Evergreen using the Evergreen Forest 3D embossing folder. This was matted with silver foil and added to a Evening Evergreen card base. Next I heat embossed in silver the sentiment from the Stars are Shining stamp set. After die cutting it using the Stitched Rectangle dies I popped this up with dimensionals. 

Finally I cut out silver foil stars using the Starlit punch and added them to the card using a little liquid glue. The Take Your Pick tool is incredibly useful here.

I will demonstrate this card plus 2 others using this bundle on my regular Facebook live later on today at 11am EDT. You can find my live on Facebook or on YouTube using the links below.

Stars are Shining

This week’s product is the Stars are Shining bundle again – so here’s my fifth card using it.

Liz Bailey Stampin' Up! Demonstrator - My Elegant Cards - Stars are Shining - Simply Elegant Specialty DSP

First I stamped the sentiment in Real Red and then added a 2 inch wide piece of the Simply Elegant Specialty DSP. Next I heat embossed the ornaments with gold embossing powder and matted that layer in Real Red. The layer was attached with dimensionals and then a bow added using the 3/8 inch Real Red sheer ribbon. 

I will demonstrate this card plus 2 others using this bundle on my regular Facebook live on Sunday at 11am EDT. You can find my live on Facebook or on YouTube using the links below.
