Measurements:
Thick Whisper White Cardstock: 5 ½” x 8 ½” scored at 4 ¼” Whisper White Cardstock: 4” x 2 ½” for sentiment and 2” circle punch Cherry Cobbler Cardstock: 5 ¼” x 4” Let It Snow Specialty Designer Series Paper: 2” x 4” for banner and a scrap piece approx. 2 ½” for starburst punch
Instructions:
Emboss the Cherry Cobbler layer with the Winter Knit embossing folder and add it to the front of the thick Whisper White Card with snail adhesive.
Cut a flag banner at the bottom of the 2” x 4” piece of Designer Paper with your paper snips and add it to the front of your card with snail adhesive.
Stamp the sentiment and snowman image on Whisper White cardstock using Memento Black Ink. Punch the snowman out with the 2” circle punch and cut the sentiment out with your paper snips. Color the snowman with Stampin’ Blends. I used the light Pumpkin Pie for his nose, light Pool Party for the snowman, and Smoky Slate for the snow and outline of the snowman. Then I used the light Pool Party to make dots of snow on the sentiment.
Punch some Designer Paper using the Starburst Punch. The print I used is the backside of the snowman one shown on the banner.
Make a faux bow with the Cherry Cobbler Ribbon and tack it down on the card front with Mini Glue Dots. (I don’t really tie a bow so that it’s not bulky) Attach the snowman image to your Starburst Punched shape with snail and pop it up over the ribbon with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Add the cut sentiment pieces with Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals to the front of the card.
This is your last day to subscribe to receive the Winter Wonders Part Two from Paper Pumpkin. This is part two of The Winter Wonders Paper Pumpkin theme that was released in October. Last month Paper Pumpkin had part one that consisted of cards. This month is all about tags. The kit makes 24 holiday-themed gift tags of 4 various sizes and designs. The coordinating colors are Early Espresso, Pool Party, Poppy Parade, and Shaded Spruce.
Even if you were not able to get the Paper Pumpkin last month, you can still enjoy this kit. It has some beautiful coordinating colors and you can always build from that. When you add additional embellishments or supplies, you can create so much more than you anticipated.
This is perfect if you love tags. You can check out the video I posted last week to see the cards from last months kit. If you are not a subscriber, you will need to subscribe today in order to take advantage of project Winter part two.
Designer Paper: Come Sail Away 3 5/8 x 4 7/8 Balmy Blue Stripe, 2 ½ x 3 ¼ Night of Navy Stripe
Instructions:
Stamp the snowflakes from Snowman Season over the Come Sail Away Balmy Blue stripe in stamped off Night of Navy and stamped off Balmy Blue.
Adhere the designer paper to the Flirty Flamingo layer.
Tie about 8 inches of the Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon around these layers and tie in a knot a little below the halfway mark from top to bottom and to the left of the card front.
Adhere these layers to the card front.
Cut the navy stripe paper with the Layering Ovals dies. Add this paper to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Punch the snowman using the Snowman Builder Punch from Whisper White. Add features using the Let It Snow Embellishments Kit. For the face, start with the carrot nose and then add the eyes and mouth. Add the buttons down the front. Use the Snowfall Accents Puff Paint to fill in around the features and cover most of the snowman. Heat with the Heat Tool to make the paint puff. Add the snowman to the navy stripe with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Complete with the arms from the kit. Add the hat and scarf in Flirty Flamingo using a little glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The sentiment is stamped on a piece of Whisper White measuring 5/8 x 3 ½. Stamp in Flirty Flamingo ink. Notch the ends using the Triple Banner Punch. Add using Stampin’ Dimensionals and place this just under the snowman so he has a little snow under him. We don’t want him just floating!
Add the mittens with a dot of glue and Stampin’ Dimensionals.
