Instructions for making the card featuring the Ornament Keepsakes Stamp Set:

  • Cut an 8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ piece of Baja Breeze Card Stock and fold it in the middle to create the card base,
  • Cut a 4″ x 5-1/4″ piece of the ornament design from the Snow Festival Designer Series Paper and round the edges with the 3/16″ Corner Punch,
  • Cut a 1-1/2″ x 11″ piece of Cherry Cobbler Card Stock and score it at every 1/4″,
  • OPTIONAL:  Using a border punch of your choice, punch along one of the 8-1/2″ side,
  • Accordion fold the card stock and adhere the ends together,
  • Punch a 1-1/4″ circle from Cherry Cobbler Card Stock with the 1-1/4″ Circle Punch,
  • With the accordian folded card stock standing up, use your fingers to push down the card stock,
  • Holding the card stock down and using hot glue, attach the 1-1/4″ circle on top and let dry,
  • Cover an ornament stamp (see picture of card) with Gumball Green Classic Ink and stamp onto a piece of Whisper White Card Stock,
  • Cut out the ornament with the appropriate Holiday Ornaments Framelits,
  • Cover the ornament with VersaMark and apply Heat and Stick Powder,
  • Heat set the powder, add Dazzling Diamonds, and heat set again, 
  • If a mat for the ornament is desired, lay the framelit onto Baja Breeze Card Stock, trace around the framelit, and cut out the mat,
  • Adhere the mat to the ornament (I covered the mat with Dazzling Diamonds),
  • Adhere the rosette to the DSP (I used hot glue),
  • Adhere the ornament on top of the rosette (I used hot glue),
  • Cover the “Merry Christmas” sentiment in Cherry Cobbler Classic Ink (from the Greetings of the Season set) and stamp onto Whisper White Card Stock,
  • OPTIONAL:  Decorate the sentiment,
  • Adhere the sentiment to the bottom of the DSP, and
  • Adhere the decorated DSP to the Baja Breeze card base.

I love the Snow Festival DSP as it provides such easy ways to make beautiful cards.  The Baja Breeze and Primrose Petals colors in the design from the DSP that I chose to use are so pretty together.

The following picture provides a closeup of the ornament and Primrose Petals 3/8″ Stitched Satin Ribbon (126844) bow.  The Merry Christmas sentiment that I stamped on the ornament is from the  Come to Bethlehem stamp set (120591).  I used VersaMark (102283) on the stamp and embossed the sentiment with White Embossing Powder (109132).

Snow Festival DSP – Cascading Card – Stamping With Guneaux Designs

The Stampin’ Up! Snow Festival DSP (126908) has such gorgeous designs with which to create many cute cards.  I don’t know which design I like best!

I love the Christmas themes, gorgeous owls, snowflakes, houses, ornaments, and all of the little designs within the Snow Festival DSP (126908).  One sheet of the DSP provides 16 different 3″ squares that can be used  as a card front.  I used that paper to create my card share for today.

Here’s the card I made, a cascading card, and it is my very first one!  I had a blast making it.

Snow Festival Designer Series Paper

The below picture is a  view of the left side of the card.  From this picture you can see the Snow Festival DSP design that I used on the front side of the panels of the cascading card.

This is the back of the card where I will write my Christmas note to the recipient (my grandchild): Snow Festival DSP

This is a closeup of the front of the card:

I cut from one of the squares mentioned above the “Merry Christmas” sentiment.  I trimmed the corners and covered it with Crystal Effects (101055).  Love, love the owl that rests upon the sentiment.

The following pictures are closeups of the embellishments that I attached to the top of the panels of the cascading card.  Snow Festival DSP
