Carols of Christmas, Seasonal Chums, Card Front Builder, Seasonal Tags, Sweet and Sassy Hearts, Detailed Floral - Christmas Card

Our high for today is 27 degree's.  It's snowing again and the wind has picked up so I suppose it will make the roads a mess.

My share for today is a Deer Scene that I designed for a Christmas Card.  Let's take a look:


My Card Base is 5-1/2" x 8-1/2" Whisper White Cardstock and scored and folded at 4-1/4" for a top folding Card.

My Card Front Panel is Whisper White Cardstock cut at 3-3/4" x 5".

Using SU's Sweet & Sassy Framelits Dies, I die cut the Largest Heart on the left side of my Card Front Panel.

I trimmed out a piece of Soft Sky Cardstock to fit behind the Heart and adhered it to the Card Base with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.


Using SU's Detailed Floral Thinlits Dies, I die cut 3 small pieces of the Long and Skinny Floral Dies to create snowbanks inside the Heart.  I adhered the Snowbanks to the Soft Sky panel on my Card Base with Mono Multi Purpose Glue leaving the tops free of adhesive so I could tuck in the Deer and Trees.  (I used a couple pieces of the negative Cardstock that was leftover from die cutting out the Trees for a couple of the Trees inside the Heart.)

I ran lines of adhesive on the tops of my Snowbanks and then sprinkled on some of SU's Silver Glitter.

I then adhered the Card Front Panel to my Card Base with Stampin' Dimensionals.


Using SU's Card Front Builder Thinlits Dies, I die cut out my Trees from Old Olive and Garden Green Cardstock and my Deer from Soft Suede Cardstock.

I used a Signo White Gel Pen to draw my Snow lines on the Trees and then went over the Snow lines with my Wink of Stella Brush.  I adhered the Trees to my Card with Mono Multi Purpose Glue as shown in the picture above tucking the Trees inside the Heart under the tops of the Snowbanks.


Using SU's Seasonal Chums Stamp Set, I stamped the Deer Tag in Basic Black Memento Ink onto Shimmery White Cardstock and die cut the Deer out with the coordinating Seasonal Tags Framelits Dies.  I trimmed the Front of the Tag away from the back of the Tag and colored the back of the Deer with my Stampin' Blends in Vanilla, Real Red and Soft Suede.  I used my Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker to color in the Deer's Hooves.  I adhered the Deer to the side of the Heart so that he is looking into the Heart to see the other Deer with Stampin' Dimensionals.

I die cut the Star from SU's Gold Foil Cardstock and adhered it to the top of the Heart with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.

I adhered 3 of SU's Gold Circle Enamel Shapes in the Heart as shown in the picture above.


I die cut the Largest Heart from Whisper White Cardstock.

Using SU's Carols of Christmas Stamp Set, I stamped my Sentiment onto the Heart with Soft Sky Ink.

I adhered another Tree on the side of the Heart with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.

 
I absolutely LOVE this scene and the Deer!!!

Stamparatus

The Stamparatus is a new product from Stampin' Up!  I was one of the unfortunate ones to miss the first reservation window.  I love this new product and my FAVE feature of the Stamparatus is the double doors!

Change in Stamparatus Reservation Windows


The results are in! The first Stamparatus reservation window reached its maximum number of reservations in just 15 minutes, which provided us with some very important information: You LOVE this new stamping tool! We couldn’t be more thrilled; in fact, your response was so amazing that we’ve decided to make some important adjustments to the reservation process.
As was previously announced, the second reservation window will remain open from December 5–30; however, during this reservation period we will take as many orders as we receive (yay!) and not close the window until December 30. So whether the total number of reservations is 100 or 100,000, the window will stay open!
Please note the following changes:
  • Beginning March 19, we will ship Stamparatuses in the order the reservations were received (first in, first out) and continue through the next few months and beyond as product arrives in our warehouse. Because shipment dates are based on manufacturing lead times, not all of the reservations made during the December 5–30 window will ship on March 19 (as was previously announced).
  • In order to accommodate demand, limits have changed as follows: one reservation per customer and one per demonstrator.
  • Because we are not limiting the maximum number of reservations for the second window, we will not offer a third window. This is the last chance for you and your customers to reserve a Stamparatus before it becomes available in the 2018-2019 annual catalog.
Please note what has not changed:
  • If you reserved more than one stamping tool during the first reservation period, that number will not change; you will still receive the same number you reserved.
  • If you reserved one or more stamping tool(s) during the first reservation period, you may still order during the second window.
  • The reservation window will open at 2:00 PM (MT) on December 5. 
We can’t wait for you to get your hands on your very own Stamparatus and look forward to seeing the projects you’ll make with this incredible stamping tool. Look for additional details on the Stamparatus product page as the second reservation window approaches.

I recently discovered that people are using my cards and/or projects, duplicating them and entering them into challenges, using them for their own card classes and (using them on their blogs as their own creations) - Please give credit where credit is due.  My cards and projects are my own creations and are not to be used in challenges, blog hops, card classes or sold at craft shows; etc., for profit.  I don't mind if you duplicate my creativity to pass on to family members or friends as gifts or Occasions cards; but,  PLEASE be considerate of others creativity!  Thank you!
