Today’s card features The Sophisticated Sled Bundle and the Season of Green & Gold Specialty Designer Series Paper. I just loved this bundle as soon as I saw it on the online exclusives (for sale but not featured in any of the catalogs) and I knew I wanted to do lots of stuff with it. Here is what I came up with…
The card base is Cherry Cobbler cardstock
cut to 5 ½ x 8 ½” and scored at 4 ¼”. For
the top layer I cut a piece of the Seasons of Green & Gold Specialty DSP (I
chose the green and white checked one) to 4 x 5 ¼”. I knew I wanted this card to have some cherry
cobbler in it as well so I took my ruler and added lines of Cherry Cobbler
using my Dark Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Blend Marker (it made the DSP really
pop).
Next, I assembled the sled, to see which
pieces I am talking about check the figure below) from the Sophisticated Sled
Bundle. I started by cutting all of my
pieces, I cut image #2 out of Gold Foil, image #3 and image #8 out of Cherry
Cobbler cardstock, image #9 out of Old Olive cardstock, image #6 out of Basic
White cardstock and image #7 out of Silver Foil. Then I stamped the image of the skates and
bow from the coordinating stamp set onto a scrap of Basic White using Cherry
Cobbler ink and cut it out using the die in image #5, once it was die cut I
simply cut away the skates leaving just the bow and strings. I assembled the sled by adding the die cut
pieces from image #3 to the base (image #2) and then adding the die cut piece
from image #9 to the top of the sled.
With that all done I assembled my
skates. I added the laces to the skates
(there is a little cut out that they slide into), and the silver pieces from
image #7 onto the bottom of the skates to make the blades metallic. Next, I attached the bow and string image to
the skates and then popped that whole thing up on Dimensionals. With the sled all together I added it to the
front of the card using Dimensionals.
To finish off the card I stamped the
sentiment “LET IT Snow” from the bundle onto a scrap of Very Vanilla cardstock
and die cut it using one of the little flag dies from the Stylish Shapes
Dies. I also die cut one of the smaller
flags from Cherry Cobbler cardstock and cut it in half and added each half
under each side of the sentiment for some extra interest and then added it to
the card with Dimensionals. I added one
of the berry clusters from the Cherry Cobbler & Pearl Adhesive-Backed
Berries to the center of the Old Olive foliage piece on the sled.
For the inside of the card and the
envelope I stamped the image of a swag with berries and a bow from the bundle
using Tuxedo Black Memento Ink and colored it using the Dark Cherry Cobbler and
Dark Granny Apple Green Stampin’ Blend Markers.
I added the sentiment “I HOPE YOUR DAYS ARE FILLED WITH fun &
laughter” from the bundle to the inside stamping it in Cherry Cobbler.
