I’m a late getting this posted, but better late than never right? I’ve
got Christmas on the brain lately and this challenge was so much fun! I
combined the Fab Friday color challenge with the Friday Mashup 81 challenge to
create this beauty.
- Stamps: Ornament Keepsakes, More Merry Messages
- Card Stock: Island Indigo, Summer Starfruit, Whisper White
- Ink: Summer Starfruit, Midnight Muse
- Accessories: Glimmer Paper, Holiday Ornaments Framelits, Delicate Designs, Large Scallop Edgelit, Stampin’ Dimensionals, Silver Glimmer Paper
So here is the "Mashup" Challenge:
- Make a project with a "Christmas Ornament".
- Or Make a project with some "Sparkle".
- Or "Mash it Up" and create a "Christmas Project with some Sparkle".
I started off by cutting a piece of Island Indigo card stock 5-1/2” x
8-1/2” and scored it at 4-1/4”. Then I ran the card stock through the Big Shot
with the Large Scallop Edgelit to cut the lovely scallops. Then I ran the card
stock through the Big Shot again but this time with the Delicate Designs
embossing folder to add the embossed pattern.
Next I cut a piece of Whisper White card stock. 2-1/2” x 5-1/2”. I
stamped the ornament from Ornament Keepsakes three times onto the Whisper White
card stock in Summer Starfruit ink. I
stamped another ornament on a scrap of Whisper White card stock in Midnight Muse ink. I also stamped the greeting
from More Merry Messages onto the bottom of the Whisper White strip in Island
Indigo ink. I adhered the stamped
Whisper White card stock onto a 2-5/8” x 5-1/2” piece of Summer Starfruit card
stock and adhered this onto the card front.
I ran the Island Indigo ornament through the Big Shot with the Holiday
Ornaments framelit to cut out the ornament. I adhered the ornament on top of
the stamped Whisper White card stock with a couple Stampin’ Dimensionals. Next
I cut two strips of Silver Glimmer Paper 1/4” x 3”. I adhered one on top of the
bottom Summer Starfruit ornament and the second behind the Island Indigo
ornament. I used Paper Snips to trim off any Glimmer Paper that extended past
the end of the card. Just to add a little more sparkle I cut a piece of Silver
Glimmer Paper 1/2” x 2-1/2” and adhered it just above the greeting on the
Whisper White panel.
I love how simple this is and the non-traditional colors! What do you
think?
