Feels Like Frost Christmas Cards

Feels Like Frost DSP

This gorgeous DSP really does the work for all these cards. I needed ten cards ASAP and was able to create all these within a couple of hours yesterday. Fronts, embossing, insides, envelopes, and all the sequins on the fronts and insides. The DSP makes all that possible.

Here’s my infinity shot:

There are multiples of each card, and here’s a shot of each card:

Easy Peasy

Before I cut any of the DSP, I figured out where, on the bottom of the card, I would be placing the sentiment. Then I cut all the paper and started stamping the sentiments, which I did in groups of five. I used clear stamping emboss powders after I stamped each card and then use my heat gun to set it.

After I completed the fronts, I stamped the insides of all the cards with the sentiment and snowflakes. I used the Perfectly Plaid stamp set for the insides and outsides of the card. Frosted Foliage provided the snowflake stamp, which is already in a corner pattern. Both of these stamp sets can be found in the holiday catalog.

That was it. Ten cards in just a few hours. I spent most of that time using the Fine Tip Glue Pen and my Take and Pick to adhere the snowflake sequins. I again used the snowflake stamp on the bottom left corner and the flap of the envelopes.

Here are close-ups of the snowflake sequins:

The snowflakes on the bottom left and top right both got snowflakes.

As always,

Feels Like Frost for Sunday Stamps 216

Feels Like Frost DSP is Spectacular!

When I first saw this DSP in the holiday catalog, I thought it was beautiful, so I put it in my first pre-order.  When the UPS truck delivered my order, this DSP was the first thing I opened.  I don’t have enough superlative words to describe this DSP, other than to say it’s one of my most favorite DSP in the 4+ years I have been a demonstrator.  Hands down, one of the top 5 in my 4+ years.

I’ve already created a card for a Color Throwdown challenge and you can see that card here.  This card for Sunday Stamps Challenge is just the second of many Christmas cards for this year.

Here’s the Sunday Stamps Challenge banner:

Here’s the card I created:

 

 

The combination of the sketch and the Feels Like Frost DSP is simply stunning, at least I think so.

Clean, Simple, and Beautiful

The DSP does all the work here.  Using the colors from the paper, Night of Navy and Seaside Spray, I was able to create a double-matted card.  I had to do some measuring for the DSP in order to get the right width for the coordinating Seaside Spray metallic ribbon, which is gorgeous as well.  Once I finished the paper and ribbon part, I stamped the sentiment from the retired Watercolor Christmas stamp set.  I then used clear embossing powder on the sentiment, cropped both ovals from the Stitched Shapes die set and layered them.  Stamping dimensionals gave me the pop and height I wanted.  

At first, I thought I’d finished this card.  Then I realized I needed some more sparkle, so I grabbed my clear Wink of Stella.  I very carefully used the Wink of Stella on both ovals between the stitched ditch and the outer border.  Last night I thought I’d finished the card, and even took the photos for this blog post. Tonight I decided I needed to add some of the snowflake sequins to the sentiment ovals.  Once I’d finished that, I decided that, since I want a clean and simple card, I’d finished. 

As always, adding coordinating DSP to the envelope flap completed this card set.

Easy peasy.

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today.  A big thanks, in advance, for taking the time to leave a comment.

Have a Peachy Day!
