Create this card using the Whimsy & Wonder Suite Collection. Holiday Card by Mary Fish. Stampin' Pretty SlantI love the sentiment from the Whimsical Trees Bundle for Holiday cards.  “May the Love of the Season Warm Your Home & Fill Your Heart”. I embossed the sentiment in silver to coordinate with the gorgeous Whimsy & Wonder 12×12 Specialty Designer Series Paper.

Layer and adhere a 4 x 5 1/4 piece of Whimsy & Wonder 12×12 Specialty Designer Series Paper to a 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 piece of Silver Foil together and to the card base Multipurpose Liquid Glue. 

Use a Paper Trimmer to cut two pieces of Silver Foil to 2 x 4.

Adhere a Wonderful Snowflake as shown with a Stampin’ Dimensional!

LOVE THIS! A Stampin’ Dimensional fits PERFECTLY in the center of the Wonderful Snowflake to stay completely hidden when adhered. 

Use a Stamparatus to stamp the sentiment (Whimsical Trees) in Versamark Ink onto a piece of Basic White card stock.  

Cover with Silver Metallic Stampin’ Emboss Powder.  Set with a Heat Tool. 

Crop with the Frightful Tags Die and a Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine (Standard or Mini).

Adhere with Stampin’ Dimensionals. 

POP OF PERSONALITY!  Embellish with Opal Rounds (snowflake centers) and Rhinestone Basic Jewels (sentiment).

  1. Well Mary you had exactly what I wanted AGAIN. Have some time on my hands today and was thinking about what to do with some of my OLD stamps. Then I came across your tutorials and there were several years of cards using old stamps. I am off to my stamp room…….

  2. I love pink and silver together. This is a beautiful, non-traditional, Christmas card.

  3. Beautiful work Mary! Always a pleasure to see how you put your own stamp on our Pals Hop!

  4. Such a pretty card! I love the Frightful Tags die cut for the sentiment. It fits perfectly.

  8. Your card is GORGEOUS my friend. Just got that bundle and will be trying it out this weekend. Thanks for the inspiration.

  9. This card is totally amazing! And as crazy as it seems, I’d never fathomed using the basic borders dies to “stitch” my envelope flap. What an exquisite touch! As always, thank you!
