Welcome back to the bi-weekly Make My Monday challenge! Our host for challenge #213,Dawn, chose Lighting the Way for our theme. When you finish here, I hope you visit the challenge site to get inspired by the projects from the rest of our design team. We look forward to seeing your interpretation of our theme so please remember to upload your project to our gallery.

Here’s my card:

For this card I let the O Holy Night DSP (designer series paper) do all the work. The stars are definitely lighting the way.

Measurements:

  • The Night of Navy base measures 5-1/2 by 8-1/2 inches, scored at 4-1/4 inches.
  • The Boho Blue mat measures 4-1/8 by 5-3/8 inches.
  • The O Holy Night DSP measures 4 by 5-1/4 inches.
  • Trim a coordinating piece of DSP to 6 by 2-1/2 inches for the envelope flap. I used a piece of scrap DSP to punch a 1-inch circle for the envelope seal. Run the punched circle through your XYRON create-a-sticker for the seal.
  • The white cardstock for the inside measures 4 by 5-1/4 inches.
  • I added a strip of the same piece of DSP to the side of the inside white cardstock. This strip measures 3/4 by 5-1/4 inches.
  • The sentiment panel was cropped from a scrap of Night of Navy cardstock.

Putting It Together:

  • Adhere the DSP to the Boho Blue cardstock using multipurpose liquid glue.
  • Then, adhere the Boho Blue to the Night of Navy cardstock using liquid glue.
  • Wipe the scrap of Night of Navy cardstock with your embossing buddy.
  • Stamp the sentiment using VersaMark ink on the navy cardstock and cover it with white embossing powder.
  • Heat set the powder using your heat tool.
  • Crop the sentiment using a die from Countryside Corners.
  • Wind a length of Night of Navy ribbon back and forth under the sentiment and adhere using tear & tape.
  • Add dimensionals to the back of the sentiment and adhere it to the DSP.
  • Add three Night of Navy dots to the bottom, left-hand corner of the card.
  • Using liquid glue, adhere the strip of DSP to the white panel for the inside.
  • Stamp the sentiment using Night of Navy ink.
  • Adhere the white inside piece using multipurpose liquid glue.
  • With that, I’d finished this coordinated card, envelope, and envelope seal set.
