Snowy Wonder, Snowy Scenes, Christmas Cards, Stampin' Up!

Hello and welcome to my blog. Today I have a very pretty Christmas card I found on Pinterest. I just had to make it, plus I hadn't used half of those images in the "Snowy Wonder" bundle. I've mostly used the dies. You can see the original card here. I prefer to follow written instructions over videos. There's too much extra chatter on videos for me. I skipped over a lot of the video to get to the parts I needed to know. I stuck with it till all of the pieces were stamped and cut and then I just used the pic of the card for placement. The video did a nice job showing how the card was done. Don't get me wrong, I do like videos that show me how to make things that I don't understand. Please read on to see how it was made.

The base of the card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It was cut in half on the short side so once cut it measured 4-1/4" x 11" It opens on the bottom and the fold is on the top.

Using the globe die from the "Snowy Wonder" bundle I cut the piece out on the upper part of the card, leaving equal spacing on the sides and top. 

A piece of DSP from the "Snowy Scenes" 12" x 12" package was cut at about 3-3/4" x 3-1/2" and taped to the inside of the front panel. I cut a piece of Basic White that was just a hair short of 4-1/4" x 5-1/2" and taped it to that same area to hide the DSP.  

Next came all of the stamping. The house was stamped using Pecan Pie ink. The trees were stamped using Garden Green, the mountains were stamped using Pool Party and the solid trees were cut from Garden Green card stock. I was using what I had on hand for those trees. Three Basic White snowflakes were also cut out.

The words are from the same "Snowy Wonder" bundle and were stamped using Pool Party ink. I cut the piece to measure about 5/8" and 2" long. The left side is flush with the front of the card's left edge and the right side was cut at an angle.  

I just looked at the original card for placement of all of the pieces. I just love the look of this card, it's so fun and cute!

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