Stampin' Up! - Heart of Christmas 2019 - Week 3


Tonight for the Heart of Christmas I have decided to use the gorgeous Christmas Gleaming Bundle. This includes the Christmas Gleaming stamp set and the Gleaming Ornaments punch pack. I have also used the Brightly Gleaming Specialty DSP!

This is a great Bundle as you get 2 punches and who doesn't like punches.

I made the card to open by flipping it up rather than the normal opening of cards and I have used the Thick Very Vanilla card stock as my base as that is one of the colours in the gorgeous DSP.

I have stamped Merry Christmas and Deck the halls from the stamp set in Memento ink. Deck the halls has been cut out with the stitched shaped dies and backed with a 2 inch punch of DSP and then the starburst punch of Night of navy card stock. The little strips of the gorgeous DSP are all mounted on a piece of Night of Navy DSP. I have also punched out an ornament using the new Gleaming Ornament Punch and then a little bit with copper foil to top it off. Now our holly was stamped on very vanilla and coloured in with our lovely Stampin' Blends and hand cut out. The woodgrain DSP is also from a new DSP paper pack in the New Holiday Catalogue and it I chose it because we are decking the halls. It comes from the Come to Gather DSP.

Thanks for joining me today now my lovely friend Judy May is hosting our Heart of Christmas hop tonight so please hop on over to her blog for the list of participants and see all the Christmas inspiration this week. 


Don't hesitate to contact me if you would like information on creating this card or if you would like a copy of the New Holiday catalogue or any of your Stampin' Up needs.


Take Care,
