STAMPIN’ PRETTY STEP-BY-STEP TUTORIAL:
Begin by burnishing the fold of a Gold Foil-Edged Card.
Adhere a 4 7/8 x 3 5/8 piece of Wrapped in Plaid Designer Series Paper to the card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Zip a 4 1/2 x 3 1/4 piece of Whisper White card stock through a die-cutting and embossing machine tucked inside the Subtle 3D Embossing Folder. Adhere with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
Layer a 4 1/2 x 1/2 piece of Wrapped in Plaid Designer Series Paper and a piece of Real Red card stock to 4 1/2 x 1. Adhere together and to the card with Snail Adhesive.
Use the largest Stitched Shape Circle Die to crop a piece of Real Red card stock. Adhere a 2 5/8 circle die-cut (Layering Circles) of Whisper White card stock with Snail Adhesive.
Use a Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment (Cup of Christmas) in Versamark Ink onto a piece of Whisper White card stock that has been rubbed with an Embossing Buddy. Cover with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder, flick to remove the excess and set with a Heat Tool.
Trim to 2 1/4 x 5/8 and flag the end with the Tailored Tag Punch.
Crop a piece of Wrapped in Plaid Designer Series Paper with the cup from the Cup of Cheers Die.
Crop a piece of Gold Foil & Real Red card stock with the dies to adorn the cup. Adhere with a Mini Glue Dot.
POP OF PERSONALITY! Add four Gold Metallic Pearls as shown.
