Warm & Toasty, Poinsettia Petals, Poinsettia, Joy of Sharing, Trimming the Town, Snowflake Splendor, Pine Woods, Celebration Labels - Alternate Christmas Card

It's another gorgeous day today in Midland, Michigan.  It's partly cloudy with a high temp of 79F and a low tonight of 61F.  The winds are S at 10 to 15mph.

My share for today is an Alternate Christmas Card that I designed using Stampin' Up!'s Joy of Sharing All-Inclusive Card Kit and a lot of products from Stampin' Up!'s 2020 Mini Holiday Catalog.  Let's take a look:


Now, just how Sweet is this adorable little Reindeer pulling this adorable sleigh full of singing bunnies!!!  😊😊😊

I cut one of the 5" x 7" Card Bases from Stampin' Up!'s Joy of Sharing All-Inclusive Card Kit in half.  This made two Card Bases to measure 2-1/2" x 3-1/2".

I trimmed out a Panel of Mossy Meadow Cardstock to measure 4-1/4" x 5-1/2".

I adhered one of the Card Bases to the Mossy Meadow Panel with Stampin' Dimensionals.


I trimmed out a 3" x 4-1/4" Panel of the Snowflake Pattern in Stampin' Up!'s Snowflake Splendor Designer Series Paper and adhered it to my Card with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.

Using the Pine Woods Dies, I die cut out my Snowbank from Whisper White Cardstock and adhered it to my Card with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.

*Tip - I left the corners of the DSP Panel and the Snowbank free of adhesive so I could tuck my Holly Berry Branches underneath.


Using the Warm & Toasty Stamp Set, I stamped my Reindeer and Sleigh Full of Singing Bunnies in Black Memento Ink onto Shimmery White Cardstock.

Using my Stampin' Blends Markers in Light and Dark, I colored my Reindeer with Soft Suede, Basic Black, Petal Pink, Real Red and Ivory.

I colored my Sleigh with Old Olive and Smokey Slate.

I colored the Bunnies with Petal Pink and Real Red.

I fussy cut out my Reindeer and Sleigh Full of Bunnies and adhered them to my Card with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals as shown in the picture above.

*Tip - Leave room inbetween the Stampin' Dimensionals to tuck the Gold Trim behind the Reindeer and the Sleigh.


I cut a long length of the Gold Trim from the Forever Greenery Trim Combo Pack, wound it around the Reindeer and adhered it to the Front of the Sleigh with Mono Multi Purpose Glue.  After it was dry, I tied the ends into a Bow.


Using the Poinsettia Petals Stamp Set, I stamped the Holly Berry Branches in Black Memento Ink onto Shimmery White Cardstock.  I then stamped the Holly Berries onto the Holly Berry Branches in Real Red Ink.

Using the coordinating Poinsettia Dies, I die cut out my Branches.

I trimmed the Branches into two pieces and adhered them under the corners of the Card Base and under the corners of the DSP.

Using the Trimming the Town DSP with the Sayings Pattern, I trimmed out the words Dashing Through the Snow.

I took one of the Real Red Banners from the Joy of Sharing Kit, trimmed off about an 1/8" from the top and bottom of the Banner and adhered it to the Snowbank as shown in the picture above.

I also adhered the Dashing Through the Snow to the top of the Banner.


Pictured above is the inside of my Card.


Using the Celebration Labels Dies, I die cut out a Label from Mossy Meadow Cardstock and adhered it to the inside of my Card.

Using the Joy of Sharing Stamp Set, I stamped Merry Christmas in Mossy Meadow Ink onto one of the Real Red Lined Labels from the Kit and adhered it to the Center of my Mossy Meadow Label.

I adhered a Holly Berry Branch under the right end of the Label.


Well, I think this one is going to be another Card that I hang up in my Studio.  😊😊😊

Tell someone you LOVE them and/or give someone an AIR HUG today!!!

Have a Blessed Day!!!

Have A Hoot, Peek-A-Hoot, Trimming the Town, Life Is Beautiful, Home Together, Pine Woods, Merry Moose, Moose Punch - Christmas Card

It's another gorgeous day today in Midland, Michigan.  The high temp for today is 88F with a low of 62F for tonight.  The winds are WSW at 5 to 10mph.

My share for today is a Christmas Card that I designed using lots of new products from Stampin' Up!'s new 2020 Mini Holiday Catalog and some returning FAVE products from the 2020-21 Annual Catalog.  Let's take a look:


Phew!!!  I surely put a lot of work into this Card.  I won't go into a lot of detail this; but, I'll list the Stampin' Up! products that I used.  I truly had a blast designing this one!!!  😊😊😊  I'm not sure that I will be able to give this one away!!!  😊😊😊


My Card Base is Misty Moonlight Cardstock.

I trimmed out a Panel of the Misty Moonlight/Snowflake pattern from the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper and adhered it to the Front of my Card Base.

I used the Pine Woods Dies to die cut out my Snowbanks from Whisper White Cardstock.  I adhered the first Snowbank with Mono Multi Purpose Glue leaving the top free of adhesive so I could tuck my Tree behind it.  For the Second Snowbank, I used Have A Hoot Stamp Set and stamped the Sentiment in Cherry Cobbler Ink.  The second Snow bank was adhered with small pieces of Stampin' Dimensionals, again leaving the top free of adhesive.

I used Life Is Beautiful Stamp Set, stamped the Tree in Basic Gray Ink, fussy cut it out, tucked it behind the first Snowbank and adhered it to my Card.


I used Merry Moose Stamp Set and stamped one Large and one Small Tree in Garden Green Ink.  I adhered the Small Tree with Mono Multi Purpose Glue and tucked it behind the Second Snowbank.  I adhered the Large Tree with Stampin' Dimensionals and also tucked it behind the Second Snowbank.

I stamped the Presents in Cherry Cobbler Ink, fussy cut them out and adhered them to the Second Snowbank with Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.

I stamped the Racoon on the Log in Black Memento Ink.  I colored it with Light and Dark Stampin' Blends in Soft Suede and Smokey Slate.  I fussy cut him out and adhered him to the Front of the Second Snowbank with both Mono Multi Purpose Glue and Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.

I stamped the Christmas Bulb and the Scarf in Cherry Cobbler Ink and fussy cut them out.  I trimmed the Bow off the top of the Bulb and adhered it to the third Present.  I trimmed a slit in between the Racoon's Arms and adhered the Bulb.  I adhered the Scarf to the Racoon.


I used Have A Hoot Stamp Set and stamped the Four Owl Stamp in Black Memento Ink.  I used the coordinating Peek-A-Hoot Dies to die cut them out.  I colored the Owls in Light and Dark Soft Suede and Daffodil Delight and adhered them in the Tree with Small Pieces of Stampin' Dimensionals.


I used the Home Together Dies and die cut out one of the Wreaths from the Wreath Pattern in the Trimming the Town Designer Series Paper.  I adhered the Wreath to my Tree with a Stampin' Dimensional.

I adhered five Red Sequins from the Sequins for Everything Assortment to my Tree.

I adhered a Copper Star Designer Element to the top of each Tree.


For the inside of my Card, I trimmed out a panel of Whisper White Cardstock.  I used Have A Hoot Stamp Set and stamped Merry Christmas on the Panel in Cherry Cobbler Ink.  I adhered the Panel to the inside of my Card.

Using the Moose Punch, I punched a Moose from Early Espresso Cardstock and adhered it to the inside of my Card.


O.K.  I need a nap now!!!  😊😊😊

Tell someone you LOVE them and/or give someone an AIR HUG today!!!

Have a Blessed Day!!!
