ONE BASIC LAYOUT, TWO STAMP SETS, THREE CUTE CARDS; A TINSEL TIME TUESDAY POST

 Hi, Stampers!

Welcome to another addition of Tinsel Time Tuesday! Today I am sharing three cards that are similar, but yet different from one another. The cards were made using two stamp sets and one basic card layout. Each card is easy to create and goes together quickly. 

Let’s look at the cards!


And now let’s take a look at the stamp sets.

PENGUIN PLACE
(I also used the coordinating Penguin Builder Punch)


HOLLY JOLLY WISHES


The card layout is very basic; focal panel, mat for the focal panel, all on a card base. Each card is made with the same colors of cardstock cut at the same dimensions. Each card requires

*  Card base - Pool Party. When folded the card front should measure 5 1/2” x 4 1/4”. You can decide if you want your cardstock cut at 8 1/2” x 5 1/2” scored and folded at 4 1/4” OR 11” x 4 1/4” scored and folded at 5 1/2”.
* Real Red mat cut at 5 1/8” x 3 7/8”
* Basic White for focal panel cut at 5” x 3 3/4”.

JINGLE ALL THE WAY 


This card only requires stamps, ink, and paper plus adhesive, of course!

SUPPLIES
* Featured stamp sets.
* Cardstock listed above.
* Inks - Memento Tuxedo Black, Mango Melody, Pool Party, Real Red, Flirty Flamingo, Granny Apple Green,  and Soft Suede.
* Adhesive
* Optional - Wink of Stella, I used it to add sparkle to the “snow” beneath the penguins.

ASSEMBLY
* Stamp the snow line with Pool Party on the Basic White focal panel. 
* Stamp the penguins with the Tuxedo Black ink along the snow line. Stamp the beaks with Mango Melody. Stamp head gear of your choice on the penguin’s heads. I used Flirty Flamingo and Granny Apple Green inks for the hats and Soft Suede for the antlers.
* Stamp the greeting with Real Red.
* Cover the area below the snow line with Wink of Stella if you like.
* Adhere this panel to the Real Red mat, and adhere the piece to the card base.

HOLLY JOLLY CHRISTMAS

SUPPLIES
* Featured stamp sets plus the PENGUIN BUILDER PUNCH.
* Cardstock listed above plus scraps of Basic Black, Basic White, and Mango Melody.
* Inks - Memento Tuxedo Black, Mango Melody, Real Red, Pool Party, Polished Pink, Soft Suede, and Wink of Stella (for the snow).
* Adhesive, glue dots, and dimensionals.

As you can see, this card features the same layout as the previous card, the orientation has just been changed from portrait to landscape.

ASSEMBLY 
* Stamp the snow line with Pool Party ink. 
* Stamp the two “sliding” penguins along the snow line with Tuxedo Black ink. 
* Stamp some snowflakes around the portion of the panel above the snow line. Stamp the bills and the feet with Mango Melody. Stamp the antlers on one penguin with Soft Suede.
* Stamp the greeting with Real Red.
* Stamp two hats on Basic White scrap cardstock. I stamped one in Real Red and one in Polished Pink. Fussy cut the hats.
* Punch out the needed pieces for the third penguin using the PENGUIN BUILDER PUNCH . Stamp the eyes and beak on the penguin.
* Adhere the penguin and hat to the card panel with dimensionals.
* Use a glue dot to adhere the remaining hat to one of the “sliding” penguins.
* Stamp the greeting with Real Red.
* Use Wink of Stella to add a bit of sparkle to the snow under the snow line.

JOLLY PENGUIN CHOIR


A cute little penguin choir! What a fun way to send Holiday greetings to friends and family!

SUPPLIES
* Featured stamp sets plus the PENGUIN BUILDER PUNCH.
* Cardstock listed above, plus scraps of Basic Black, Basic White, Mango Melody, and Pool Party.
* Inks - Memento Tuxedo Black, Pool Party, Mango Melody, Real Red, Garden Green, Mint Macaron, and Soft Suede.
* Adhesive, glue dots, and dimensionals.

ASSEMBLY
* Use Pool Party ink to stamp some snowflakes on the focal panel.
* Use the PENGUIN BUILDER PUNCH and punch out enough items to create 5 penguins. Stamp the eyes, beaks, bow ties or scarves on the penguins. Assemble the penguins; use glue dots to adhere the feet on three penguins.
* Cut a piece of Pool Party cardstock at 3 3/4” x 1/2” (this piece “anchors” the penguins). Adhere this piece about 3/4 of the way down the focal panel.
* Arrange the penguins on the focal panel. Use adhesive for the two back penguins and dimensionals for the ones in front.
* Use Soft Suede ink to stamp the antlers.
* Use Real Red ink to stamp the greeting.

There you go; one layout, two stamp sets, and three cute cards. I am sending these cards to some kiddos in my life to wish them a Merry Christmas, but I think the cards would put a smile on the faces of kids of all ages. I hope you give these card ideas a try.


That’s all for this edition of Tinsel Time Tuesday. Thank you for stopping by. Until next time…
Stamp Happy!
