Christmas Card Class Series- Part 1 Christmas Scotties

Scroll down for details on how to get this class kit for free!

The Christmas Card Class Series has kicked off! I just love the Holiday season! While I am not quite ready to say good by to summer, I know that the Holidays will be here before I know if. This year, I want to be well prepared and start my Holiday projects now so come Thanksgiving I am ready to get things mailed. Yes I know that is a well thought out plan- now to make sure I implement it!

It’s funny as a little kid, I was frightened of dogs, but now I just love them. I am a proud doggie mom. yup our little man Cooper (well he is 70 lbs of little) is a joy in our lives. Yes, he can be a handful, but I wouldn’t trade him for the world. My hubby calls him a Momma’s boy. Although he is excited for any family member to walk in the door. And well, he can not hold his licker. so if you love doggie smooches he is the pup to visit. I’ll find some pictures to share later on.

Anyways, on to our cards…

here is the class video, feel free to watch or scroll down to the card photos.


Festive Scottie Card

The first card features the Celebrate Everything Designer Paper. But you could use ANY designer paper you have and make it any theme. Did you notice the Wonderful Snowflake accent on the card? It is an iridescent snowflake and can be used on all sorts of cards. In fact, I used them on all 3 cards. On this card I used both the punch and the stamped Scottie image. When I stamped the Scottie on the inside, I used Stazon Jet Black ink. Watch the video for details and tips on using Stazon Ink and cleaning tips.

Furry and Bright Holiday Card

Our second card is a bit of a fun fold. Very similar to the Book binding or Matchbook Style cards you may have seen. I was inspired by Lisa McGrew that I has been in a card swap with. I once again used the Celebrate Everything Designer Paper. I also used the Whimsical Woodland 3D embossing folder from the July – December Mini Catalog or as I refer to is as the Holiday Mini Catalog from Stampin’ Up! Try to say Whimsical Woodland 3D embossing folder really fast. It’s almost a tongue twister. I finished off the card with Red Rhinestones and Real Red Ribbon. I also decided I wanted the inside to be different from most cards. Instead of using a piece of Basic White layer, I punched out a Decorative circle, stamped my sentiment in Real Red then added on of the Wonderful Snowflakes. For his collar, I used an Real Red marker to color it in.

Christmas Scottie Fun Flap Card

Last but definitely not least… a Fun Flap card. I received this card in a swap as well, but I lost the person’s information that created it so I can not give her credit, I do apologize. I changed it up by adding a Wonderful Snowflake, using the Whimsical Woodland 3d Embossing folder and adding silver foil and Basic Rhinestone jewels. This card features the Gingham Cottage Designer paper that coordinates with the Gingham Cottage Suite found in the July – December Mini Catalog on page 58-59.

Thinking out side of the Box with the Artfully Layered Stamp Set

Many times if a stamp set comes with a suite of products or designer paper, we stick with the colors in the papers. I decided to try something a little different today with this very Tropical set. I know, going rogue again. Not really, just playing around with different colors. Let me know what you think. If you want to check out the video, I did a Facebook Live (every Thursday at 644 central) on My Stamp Studio. Here is the link to watch the video on Facebook: ARTFULLY COMPOSED ONLINE CLASS

All the products used to make this card are listed below. This is a SIP card. What is a SIP card? A card made with Stamps, Ink, Paper. No dies or embellishments nothing super fancy-smanchy. Quick and easy but fun to make. Pick 3 colors- grab your stamps, your ink and card stock and you are on your way.

Measurements:

  • Crumb Cake Cardstock: 8 1/2″ x 5 1/2″ (scored at 4 1/4″)
  • Early Espresso Cardstock: 5 1/4″ x 4″
  • Very Vanilla Cardstock: 5″ x 3 3/4″, 5 1/4″ x 4″, 1″ x 3 1/4″
  • Cajun Craze Cardstock: 3″ 2 1/2″

Continuing on, the next card is a Pocket Card, but this time I did use the colors from the Artfully Composed Designer Paper. I did not have to make one substitution as Just Jade is no longer available. I swapped it with Soft Succulent and it turned out great!

This card features a insert that you can easily slide out and stamp and write a greeting on, or you can add a gift card by simply placing a glue dot on the back of the gift card and attaching to the insert. You may want to watch the video for tips on how to create the pocket and flap if you are using directional DSP. I cut the DSP the wrong directions a few times when I first made the card. oops! I did add some of the Shimmery Vellum In color specialty paper which is no longer available, but you can easily swap it out with other cardstock

Measurements:

  • Artfully Composed DSP: 4″ x 12″ score at 5 1/2″ and 10″
  • Soft Succulent Cardstock: 5 /4″ x 3 3/4″
  • Basic White Cardstock: 3 5/8″ x 5 1/8″
  • 15″ of Frayed Ribbon

The third card during the Online Class is a fun alternate color combo featuring the new Parakeet Party In Color. It is such a pretty, bright and vibrant color. I also used the new Fern 3d Embossing folder found on page 176 of the 2022-2023 Annual Catalog. The fern embossing folder was used on the Lovely Layers Vellum and Pale Papaya Cardstock for a subtle yet distinctive background. Oh and we cannot forget the envelope! no naked envelopes today. I used the Parakeet Party In color and stamped off the image.

Can you see the amazing Fern embossing on the Lovely Layers Vellum and Pale Papaya cardstock?

Measurements:

  • Thick Basic White Cardstock: 4 1/4″ x 11 socre at 5 1/2″
  • Lovely Layers Vellum: 3 3/4″ x 5″
  • Pale Papaya Cardstock: 2 1/2″ x 5 1/2″
  • Scrap Basic White for sentiment
