Big On Christmas

November 8, 2008 By Connie | 2 Comments

This is my swap card for the Stamping Retreat this weekend! It is just a mini swap…only had to make 11 of them thank goodness. With all I had to do before I left, I couldn’t have done many more than that!

First I cut the Kraft cardstock and Riding Hood Red cardstock on the Big Shot with my Top Note die. I trimmed the perforations away on the Kraft piece and layered it onto the Riding Hood Red. Then I embossed the Snowman from Big on Christmas with White EP on Kraft (I’m SO into Kraft these days!) I wrapped the Riding Hood Red Taffeta Ribbon (LOVE it!) around the Top Note. I cut the Whisper White snowflakes with the small die and secured it to the Top Note with a red Rhinestone brad.

I layered Baja Breeze on the Riding Hood Red card and added a strip of Ski Slope Designer Paper. Then I added the Top Note layer on top. I’m happy with how it turned out!

I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 23 years and just had my 22nd Stampin' Up! anniversary in early May. I love being part of something that sparks my creativity and hear people comment, "you MADE this?" I also enjoy sharing that passion with others in my classes! If you live anywhere in the Lewis Center, Delaware, Dublin, Powell, Westerville, Hilliard or surrounding Columbus, Ohio areas, join us! I love to meet new stamping friends. Email me for a current class schedule... I'm adding new classes all the time!
