CASE-ING TUESDAY #425 - JOY OF NOEL

Hello! The 2023 Holiday Catalog has arrived. I'm curious, do we have something in common? I love the Holidays! I've also started making my Christmas cards already! I try to focus on completing three cards every week during the month of September - November so that I get them mailed out in time. Have you started on your Holiday cards yet?




The CASE-ing Tuesday Sketch Challenges are a simple tool that helps bring design inspiration and put it into action. Have you joined the CASE-ing Tuesday group on Facebook yet? If not, be sure to check it out! 



For today's card, I started with a 4-1/4" x 11" (scored at 5-1/2") Cherry Cobbler card base. Next, I selected this holly pattern from the A Walk in the Forest 12" x 12" Designer Series Paper.* 

*MAKE A DIFFERENCE! With every purchase of the A Walk in the Forest Designer Series Paper, Stampin' Up! will donate $3 to support organizations dedicated to spreading cheer and providing support to those in need. I hope you will join me in making a difference this Holiday Season!

I layered the 4" x 4-1/4" A Walk in the Forest DSP on the card base as being shown. I added (2) 3/4" x 4-1/4"strips of Pretty Peacock cardstock underneath the 2-1/2" x 4-1/4" Basic White cardstock layer. Adhere the cardstock layer to the card base like the example.

Next, I stamped the holly branch image from the Joy of Noel Stamp Set in Memento Tuxedo Black ink on a scrap piece of Basic White cardstock. I colored the image using the following Stampin' Blends: 
  • Cherry Cobbler (Dark) - Berries
  • Pretty Peacock (Light & Dark) - Leaves
  • Shaded Spruce (Dark) - Pine Branch
  • Old Olive (Light & Dark) - Holly Leaves
I die cut the image out using the coordinating die from the Joy of Noel Dies. Attach the die cut to the card using Stampin' Dimensionals. I wanted to add a bit of sparkle to the card front so I die cut the word "NOEL" using the More Dazzle 6" x 6" Specialty Paper in Champagne. Adhere each of the letters to the card front using Tombow Multipurpose Glue. I stamped the sentiment in Tuxedo Memento Black ink on a 1" x 2" piece of Cherry Cobbler cardstock. Adhere the sentiment using Stampin' Dimensionals.
