November Stamping Symphony Blog Hop

 

Hi Everyone,

I hope you are doing well. Christmas seems like it is just around the corner. I have been busy making Christmas cards for friends and customers. I will make mine once everyone else is taken care of.

This month's Blog Hop is Christmas with a flare - I chose a fun fold card to demonstrate. I just received this paper and am having so much fun with the paper and bundle. The paper does all the work. I die cut the house from one of the DSP. They are simple enough to fussy cut too. When you purchase the Coming Home stamp set, Stampin' Up! will donate $4.00 to charities devoted to adoption, foster care and infertility. You can make a difference with your purchase. I just loved the stamp set, dies and DSP. The donation was a bonus.

Let's find out how to make this fun, simple card!

Measurements:

  • Misty Moonlight card base - 4 1/4 x 5 1/2
  • Poppy Parade cardstock - 3 1/2 x 5 1/2; 3/4 x 5 1/2 scored at 3/4" for flap
  • Whisper White cardstock - 3 x 11 scored at 5 1/2; scrap for circle and sentiment
  • DSP (Trimming the Town DSP) - 2 3/4 x 5 1/2

Instructions:

  • Adhere the large Poppy Parade rectangle to the card front leaving an even border on the sides.
  • Fold the Whisper White cardstock in half along the score line. Adhere the DSP to the front of this piece leaving an even border on the sides.
  • Adhere the Whisper White piece with the DSP to the card front leaving and even border of Poppy Parade on the sides.
  • Stamp the sentiment on a 1/2" strip on Whisper White cardstock using Misty Moonlight ink and    the Itty Bitty Christmas stamp set. Adhere to the card front using Dimensionals
  • Take the Poppy Parade cardstock strip and flag the end using a punch or scissors. Put adhesive      on the folded 3/4" part and adhere to the back of the card. 



  • Die cut the second largest Stitched Circle from a piece of Whisper White cardstock.
  • Cut out one of the houses from the Trimming the Town DSP. Adhere to the Stitched Circle.
  • Adhere this piece to the center of the flag piece.


I hope you enjoyed this fun and simple card. I am going to make a bunch of these for my family and friends.


Thank you for stopping by and viewing my card.
