25 Days of Christmas - Day 16


This stamp set has been around for 3 years and I still love it! I think it makes great cards and gifts. 2 years ago I even made a framed project using the Let It Snow stamp. This time I am featuring a card using it. The stamp set is called Big On Christmas. I love the different textures and shapes on the card. Some of the items and colors are now retired but it would be so easy to change them to current colors! Enjoy!


Instructions

1. Pierce row of holes in Chocolate Chip textured card stock (4-1/4" x 1/2") using paper-piercing tool from Crafters’ Tool Kit. Adhere card stock to Old Olive textured card.

2. Punch right edge of Baja Breeze textured card stock (8-3/4" x 3-7/8") using Scallop Edge punch. Fold Baja Breeze card stock around card with scallop border hanging over right edge of card and adhere.

3. Stamp “Happy holidays” in Jet Black StazOn ink on Whisper White textured card stock (5" x 5"). Watercolor “Happy” in Baja Breeze, Old Olive and Riding Hood Red ink using Aqua Painter. Cut out image in a circle using Coluzzle Cutting System.

4. Punch 13 circles from Whisper White textured card stock using 1/4" Circle punch. Adhere seven circles to large stamped circle. Apply Dazzling Diamonds Stampin’ Glitter to the remaining six circles and adhere to large circle. Adhere large circle to card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

5. Cut a scrap piece of chipboard into a tree trunk, cover with Chocolate Chip textured card stock. Cut off one side of a large chipboard star and cover with Old Olive textured card stock; adhere to tree trunk. Adhere So Saffron textured card stock to small chipboard star, and adhere to top of tree. Tie crochet thread through Riding Hood Red button and adhere to tree. Adhere tree to card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.
