We BEE Stamping TEAM Blog Hop Christmas Time

Welcome to this month's Team Blog Hop - Christmas Time.

I chose to share a more rustic themed card featuring the Sophisticated Sled Bundle, one of my favorites from the September - December 2024 mini catalog.  Sometimes I tend to do not-so-traditional Christmas card fronts, but always put a nice holiday sentiment on the inside.   

I have done several projects using this bundle, and guess what, they did not even feature the sled; so here is yet another one.  The ice skate dies in this bundle are just so fabulous that I keep going back to them.

I embossed a piece of Early Espresso card stock with the Birch Wood 3D Embossing.  Then I lightly tapped the high embossed ridges with a VersaMark ink pad, sprinkled with Gold Embossing powder and heat set.  I really love how the background turned out.  The skates are die cut from Very Vanilla and Gold Foil papers.  The words at the bottom are Gold Heat embossed on Very Vanilla, which is 3/4" x 2-1/4".  And finally the wreath is die cut from Very Vanilla card stock as well. 

So the skates do not look like they are just floating, I used some Linen Thread to make it look like they are hanging.  

I accented with a Gold 1/8" Trim bow and added a few Adhesive-Backed Snowflakes.

Regal Winter Suite Collection

Hello ~ and welcome to my blog, Creative Card Closet.  My name is Lisa Brown and I am an Independent Stampin' Up! Demonstrator.  I love sharing projects and ideas with you, so let's get started. 

Today I'm sharing an amazing suite collection and TWO projects I created with it.  I love the jewel color tones of the designer paper, it is so lovely.  And so are the Regal Foil dots... I promise you will love them and the gold flecks in them.  The Suite Collection is call Regal Winter (click on link to see the suite). 

I created my first card, and have some left over pieces the, what I will call, the label die so I then created a second project.  

Card 1:  Blackberry Bliss

#regalwinter #stampwithlisabrown #blackberrybliss

My picture certainly does not do Blackberry Bliss any justice but I do love this card.  Some quick dimensions for you:

  • White mat:   3-1/4 x 5-1/4
  • White strip:  3/4 x 3-1/4
  • Designer Paper:  2 pieces are 1-1/2 x 2 and 2 pieces are 1-1/2 x 3

I cut the label in White and Gold Foil card stock.  When I did this, I saved the white inside and gold outside pieces to make another card...

Card 2:  Night of Navy

#regalwinter #stampwithlisabrown #nightofnavy

The Regal Winter DSP is cut to 4 x 5-1/4" and mounted on Thick White card stock base.  I stamped the white label piece in Pretty Peacock and Night of Navy.  I love the simplicity of this one.  I could have dressed up a little with the Regal Foiled dots for some bling. 

So don't throw those scraps or extra pieces out!  Make a different project with them.  Happy Stamping!
