Stampin’ Up! A Little Bit Festive Christmas Cards III

Good Morning! Here are a few more quick Christmas cards made with the pretty Stampin’ Up! A Little Bit Festive specialty designer series paper. You can find the products I used at the bottom of my post along with the card stock sizes.

For the first card (my YUM card), I adhered a cookie filled panel of the Stampin’ Up! A Little Bit Festive Mix & Match specialty designer series paper to a Real Red mat and popped it on the front of a Pool Party card base with dimensionals. I used the Stylish Shapes dies to cut a large circle and adhered it to the card with liquid glue. I used the Hot Cocoa cut out along with the gingerbread cookies and adhered them with dimensionals. I stamped the sentiments from the Greetings of the Season stamp set using Real Red ink on Crumb Cake and trimmed the end. I adhered it to a Real Red mat and adhered it with glue dots. I finished the card with peppermints and a double Real Red Baker’s Twine bow.

For the inside of this card I stamped the sentiment from the Greetings of the Season stamp set in Real Red ink on Basic White and accented it with a little Real Red candy cane from the More Than Autumn stamp set.

For the second card, I embossed a Pool Party panel with the Snowflake Sky 3D embossing folder and adhered it to the front of a Pool Party card base. I adhered the tree cut outs from the Stampin’ Up! A Little Bit Festive DSP with glue dots and popped the present filled sleigh on the card with dimensionals. I stamped the sentiment from the Greetings of the Season stamp set using Real Red ink on a light pool party panel (I used the new two toned paper from the Scrapbooking brochure – I like the subtle contrast it gives!) and trimmed the end before adhering it to the card with glue dots. And of course I need to add snowflake embellishemnts!

For the inside of this card I stamped the sentiment from the Greetings of the Season stamp set in Real Red ink on Basic White. I stamped a Pool Party snowflake from the Iconic Imagery stamp set. I think that I used the wrong Basic White panel for my inside because the side margin is a bit wide, but I think it still looks ok.

I’ve made several Christmas cards now with the pretty images from the Stampin’ Up! A Little Bit Festive DSP and each one has been unique! And I still have lots of pretty cut outs left over as well as plenty of patterned paper. I didn’t pick up any of the ephemera packs with the tags, sentiments and images, but all of these items coordinate and give you even more creative options. So check them out!

The Stampin’ Up! A Little Bit Festive Mix & Match specialty designer series paper makes Christmas crafting so quick and easy and the images are so pretty! It’s a great addition to your Christmas crafting stash!
