TINSEL TIME THURSDAY
CARD # 6
Welcome to Tinsel Time Thursday. This is week 6 of the series that will continue through 10 December 2020. Each week a card is presented to provide inspiration and encouragement as you work on your Holiday cards! So let’s take a look at today’s card!
This card features Shaded Spruce and Mint Macaron highlighted with vellum and gold die cuts as well as gold foil and a few Gilded Gems.This card mixes a bit of tradition with a bit of contemporary to make a simple, yet festive card.
This is what you will need to make this card:
The Wishes & Wonder Bundle found in the Stampin’ Up!®️ August-December 2020 Mini Catalog (pg 32). The bundle includes the Wishes & Wonder stamp set as well as the North Pole Wonder Dies. This bundle is part of the Wonder of the Season Suite. (See pages 30-33 of the mini catalog for details.) each item in the suite can be purchased together using one item number or they can be purchased separately. Each of the stamp sets with its coordinating dies may be purchased separately or bundled for a 10% savings. When you purchase the suite the stamps and dies are included at the bundled price.
Shaded Spruce card base cut at 4 1/4” x 11” and scored and folded at 5 1/2”. Two pieces of Mint Macaron cardstock cut at 5 3/8” x 4 1/8” (one for the outside and one for the inside), a piece of Mint Macaron cardstock that is cut at 1/2” x 4”, a piece of gold foil that is 3/4” wide x 4” long. A piece of gold foil and a piece of vellum for die cutting the leaves and flourishes. The DSP is from the ‘Tis the Season 6x6 DSP (pg 31 mini catalog). It is cut at 5 1/2” x 4”.
To assemble the card:
Die cut 2 vellum flourishes and 2 vellum leaf clusters using the 2 flourish dies and the leaf cluster from Cardinal Christmas Dies. Using all three stems with leave from the North Pole Wonder dies, cut one die cut each from gold foil.You should have a total of 7 die cut pieces.
On one piece of the Mint Macaron cardstock stamp the “May the Wonder of Christmas...”sentiment from the Wishes and Wonder stamp set with Shaded Spruce ink. This panel goes on the inside of the card. Now stamp the sentiment, “Wishing You the Happiest...” on the strip of Mint Macaron cardstock using the Shaded Spruce ink.
Adhere the stamped Mint Macaron panel to the inside of the card. Adhere the greeting (the Mint Macaron strip) to the gold foil. Adhere the DSP to the remaining piece of Mint Macaron cardstock, and adhere this panel to the front of the card.
Place some adhesive on the back of the greeting strip on what is the left side from the front. Arrange the vellum and gold foil die cuts in a manner pleasing to you, and place them on the adhesive. As you build your arrangement you might need to ad more adhesive to hold the die cuts in place.
