Seasonal Bells

seasonalbellsToday we are doing another blog candy.  Head over to Create with Connie and Mary to see who is doing blog candy today!

Okay…this was another of my ‘reject’ cards.  I had made this for a holiday card class then decided to go with the gold and vanilla one that I post on the 6th.  I still really like this one…I just like the other more for my class!

I LOVE the holly print from the Presents & Pinecones dsp pack.  It is just so festive looking and it works so well with so many of the different sets in the Holiday Mini!

Here’s the details…

  • Whisper White – 4 1/4 x 11 folded
  • Holly Berry print – 3/4 x 5 1/2, add to left side of card front
  • Whisper White – 3 1/2 x 5 1/2, run through the Pine Bough Embossing Folder, add to card front
  • Cherry Cobbler print – 1/4 x 5 1/2, add to card front
  • Emerald Envy – stamp bell using Memento Black, punch out
  • Cherry Cobbler – stamp bell using Memento Black, punch out, layer the two bells together and add to card front using dimensionals
  • Mint Macaron – stamp banner greeting using Memento Black, cut out, add to card front using dimensionals
  • Take all 3 of the baker’s twine in the Trio pack and tie together into a bow, add to top of bells
 Set(s): Seasonal Bells
Paper: Whisper White, Mint Macaron, Emerald Envy, Cherry Cobbler, Presents and Pinecones dsp

Seasonal Bells

seasonalbellsswapDon’t forget to head over to the Create with Connie and Mary site to see who is doing blog candy today!

I just realized that I never shared a card that I made for the Control Freak swap.  One of the first sets that I HAD to have was the Seasonal Bell set and I just LOVE the blues and purples for Christmas.

This was the first card that I made when I got my ‘new stuff’ for the holiday mini.  Can you believe it…it took me THIS LONG to share this!

I have to say…I’ve had fun with this set and will have a few more cards with bells to share still.

Here’s the details…

  • Pool Party – 4 1/4 x 11 folded
  • Sweet Sugarplum – 3 5/8 x 4 7/8, add to card front using dimensionals
  • Whisper White – 3 1/2 x 4 3/4, run through the Pine Bough Embossing Folder, add to card front
  • Silver Foil – cut out two pine boughs and add to card front
  • Stamp striped bell using Versamark on Sweet Sugarplum, snowflake bell and banner greeting using Versamark on Pool Party and bow (from Holly Berry) on Rich Razzleberry, silver emboss all; punch out bells and bow, cut out greeting, add all to card front
  • Add some Fancy Frost sequins to finish off

Inspired by a Christmas Song

WI15SatHopWelcome

Happy December everyone!  WOW…I can’t believe that it’s December!  We have some more fun Christmas themes coming up this month and we are starting things off with ‘inspired by a Christmas song’.  There were so many to go with but I decided to go with ‘Silver Bells’.
