Reason for the Season in Pink!

December 9, 2015 By Connie | Leave a Comment

This was one of the cards we did in a Holiday Catalog class a couple months ago that I thought I’d share now! Today I need to spend in my studio and get some things done for the next few weeks! lol! I love the soft colors and silvery shimmer on this one!

Here are the details:

The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Thick Whisper White.
On the 3-3/4 x 5 layer of Pink Pirouette, the Merry Christmas greeting from Reason for the Season was stamped with Tuxedo Black Ink in the lower right corner.
A 1 x 5 strip of the silvery DSP in the Neutrals Pack was adhered across the center.
The poinsettia flower outline was stamped twice with Smoky Slate on Whisper White , then the insides with Pink Pirouette and Pear Pizzazz colors. The inside of the second Pink Pirouette one was cut out and added over the base one with a Stampin’ Dimensional.
In the center, a trio of small Pearls were placed.
Some Silver Thread was wrapped around my finger in loops, then added to the back of the Poinsettia with Stampin’ Dimensionals, then adhered to the front. It adds just the right amount of sparkle!

This was one of the most popular cards in the class. I love the non-traditional colors, but would be beautiful in red and green, too!

I love stamping cards, altering 3D items and making little favors. I've been stamping for over 21 years and just had my 20th year 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!
