Stampin’ Up! Dove of Hope Floral Christmas Card Video Tutorial

Good Morning! Today I’m sharing another Christmas card – a floral card made with the Stampin’ Up! Dove of Hope bundle that I made during my Facebook Live video tutorial yesterday afternoon. So you might think that the Dove of Hope cling stamp set isn’t a floral stamp set, but look closely and you will spot the doves. You can find the supplies used to create this card at the bottom of my post along with the sizes of cardstock used.

Here is the Facebook Live video showing how I made the card:

I will post an edited version of how I made the card in my YouTube channel later this week so you can view a quickie version.

I started by randomly stamping the doves from the Stampin’ Up! Dove of Hope stamp set in Crumb Cake ink on a crumb cake panel and adhered it to a Real Red mat. This gives me a textured background for my flowers like you would get if you embossed it or used designer series paper. I die cut the petals from the Magnolia Memory Dies using Whisper White card stock, I cut two of each petal cluster giving me six total. I gently curled the petals up with my fingers and adhered them together with liquid glue.

I cut two small centers from the Magnolia Memory Dies and adhered them together. I bent the stamens up and adhered it to the center of the Whisper White flower. I cut two large flowers from the Wreath Builder Dies from Real Red card stock and three large leaves from the Magnolia Memory Dies from Mossy Meadow card stock. I cut a label using the Stitched Nested Labels Dies from Crumb Cake card stock and stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Dove of Hope stamp set in Real Red ink in the lower left corner. I adhered a Mossy Meadow die cut leaf sprig from the Detailed Dove Dies to the label.

I popped the label to the stamped panel with dimensionals. I adhered the leaves and Real Red flowers with liquid glue and popped the large Magnolia Memory Dies Whisper White flower on with dimensionals. I made a bow with Real Red braided twine and adhered it with a glue dot and finished the flowers with resin dots. I popped the finished panel on the front of a Crumb Cake card base with dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Stampin’ Up! Dove of Hope stamp set in Real Red ink on a Whisper White panel. I stamped a dove in the upper corner and adhered a die cut sprig under the sentiment. I adhered the panel to the inside of the card.

I love rustic Christmas cards with Crumb Cake card card stock! They have such a natural homespun feel. And I love floral Christmas cards because they’re different, but express the joy of the holiday. And I’m so glad to be able to use the pretty flower from the Magnolia Memory Dies! Have a great week!!
