Welcome back to the Cardz 4 Guyz challenge! Our host for #335, Helen, chose a winter scene for the theme. When you finish here, I hope you visit the challenge site to see the projects created by the rest of the design team members. As always, we would love to see your holiday scene projects in our gallery.
My card lets the DSP (designer series paper) do all the work. Therefore, it falls into the easy-peasy category.
Here’s my card:
Polar bears, snow, Christmas trees, presents, and stars combine for an adorable winter scene.
Measurements:
- The Night of Navy base measures 8-1/2 by 5-1/2 inches, scored at 4-1/4 inches.
- The Beary Christmas DSP measures 4-1/8 by 5-3/8 inches.
- I used a scrap of Very Vanilla cardstock for the sentiment square.
- The Very Vanilla cardstock for the inside of the card measures 4 by 5-1/4 inches.
- The coordinating DSP for the envelope flap measures 6 by 2-1/2 inches, and adhered with multipurpose liquid glue..
- I punched a 1-inch circle of DSP for the envelope seal, then ran it through my XYRON create-a-sticker.
Putting the Card Together:
- Using multipurpose liquid glue, adhere the DSP to the cardstock base.
- I used a sentiment from the retired Hope & Peace stamp set, and stamped it in Night of Navy ink.
- Crop the sentiment using one of the Stylish Shapes square dies.
- Outline the sentiment square using a Night of Navy marker.
- Add two pieces of tear & tape to the back of the sentiment.
- Fold a length of Real Red ribbon in half and adhere to the tear & tape.
- Add dimensionals to the back of the sentiment square and adhere to the front of the DSP.
- Stamp another holiday sentiment on the Very Vanilla cardstock using Night of Navy ink for the inside of the card.
- Adhere the Vanilla cardstock using multipurpose liquid glue.
- With that, I finished this coordinated card, envelope, and envelope seal card set.
Thanks for stopping by today.
Have a Peachy Day!
