Sophisticated Sled, Sentimental Christmas, Joyful Images Ephemera" Christmas Card, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have another Christmas card to share with you. I used the same layout as the one I did yesterday.  I have lots of pieces in the "Joyful Images Ephemera" package so I thought I'd give this layout another try. Please read on to see how it was made. It's pretty much made the same as yesterday's card except with different images.

The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the right and the fold is on the left.

I cut a 4" x 5-1/4" piece of Basic White card stock and textured it using the "Snowflake Sky" embossing folder. I glued that to the front of the card.

Next I cut the frame. I used the 3rd and 5th smallest rectangle dies in the "Deckled Rectangles" set. I lined them up, used some removable tape and then ran them through my Big Shot. Dimensionals were added to the back and the piece was set aside.

I cut a 2-3/8" x 3-5/8" piece of Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the "Sentimental Christmas" 12" x 12" package. I removed the protective pieces from the Dimensionals and set the rectangle on top of the piece of DSP. I added glue to the back and centered it on the front of the card.

The tree from the "Joyful Images Ephemera" pack and a branch image were used for today's card. I also used a green strip in the pack for the word piece. I set the tree in place with a couple of small Dimensionals on the back on the right and I added glue where the tree would be touching the frame.

A Dimensional was used for the upper left corner piece. 

The words are from the "Sophisticated Sled" bundle and were stamped using black Memento ink on a 5/8" scrap strip of Basic White card stock. It fit on the green punched out strip nicely. I glued it in place. I chose glue so I could nudge the piece a bit to get it on the green strip more evenly and easier. Then I added a couple of small Dimensionals to the left side and a little bit of glue where it will be touching the frame. 

A few snowflakes were scattered around using glue and the card was done.

Again, this is a fun layout to play with. I can see using it for lots of images die cut or stamped that are about that size. I have my "Sophisticated Sled" sitting out and I may use this layout with the sled and see what I can come up with. I love using that bundle.

Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Christmas card,
Wanda
