I’ve made another popular couple using the famous Delicate Baubles Dies…a boy and girl pilgrim! My girlfriend, Annette, requested these and I thought it was a great idea!
You can see my GNOME, SANTA, GINGERBREAD, ELF, PENGUIN, SNOWMAN, WITCH, MICKEY MOUSE, DRACULA, RUDOLPH, GRINCH & MAX, NUTCRACKER, SCARECROW and SANTA AND MRS CLAUS by clicking on their name.
Stampin’ Details for both cards:
- The base is 5-1/2 x 8-1/2 Crumb Cake cardstock, scored at 4-1/4 and folded.
- A 4 x 5-1/4 layer of Harvest Meadow Designer Paper is added on top.
- The Banner Year greeting was stamped with Memento Black Ink on the 1-1/2 x 4 piece of Crumb Cake cardstock and adhered across the front towards the bottom.
- A trio of Genial Gems were added to the Crumb Cake background.
GIRL PILGRIM
- The arabesque solid shape in the Delicate Bauble Die was cut from Petal Pink, Basic Black and Basic White cardstocks.
- The bottom of the Basic Black was cut off and added to the Petal Pink cardstock.
- I cut the Basic White Delicate Bauble in half, then used the Layering Circle to cut away the bonnet and adhered it over the Petal Pink Bauble. I used the scrap piece to hand-cut her collar and added that over the Basic Black at the bottom.
- I hand-cut her hair from Early Espresso cardstock and tucked it under the bonnet.
- The eyes are 3/8″ circles from Basic Black cardstock and the cheeks are 1/2″ circles from Flirty Flamingo cardstock and adhered with Mini Glue Dots. The nose is 3/8″ circle popped up with Stampin’ Dimensional.
- The bow from Delicate Baubles Dies was cut from scrap Basic White cardstock and added with a Mini Glue Dot.
- The eyes were highlighted with the White Chalk Pen.
- The pilgrim bauble was added to the front of the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
BOY PILGRIM

- The bottom of the Basic Black was cut off and added to the Petal Pink cardstock.
- I cut the Basic White Delicate Bauble bottom and hand-trimmed for the collar and added that over the Basic Black at the bottom.
- A 1-1/2 x 2 piece of Basic Black was angled on the sides to form the hat, then a 1/8 x 2-3/4 of Basic Black was used for the hat brim. It was added to the top of the Petal Pink Bauble.
- The buckle from All Dressed Up dies was cut from Bumblebee cardstock and added to his hat.
