Step-by-Step Instructions:
- Fold the Basic White cardstock in half at the scoreline and burnish well with the Bone Folder.
- Run the Snowflake Magic Specialty Paper through the Stampin’ Cut & Emboss Machine using the Snowflake Sky 3D Embossing Folder.
- After embossing the paper, cut a 6″ piece of the Ribbon and tie into a knot in the middle. Adhere both ends of the ribbon to the back of the paper using adhesive or scotch tape. Adhere to the front of the card base.
- Using the quarter mat of Basic White Cardstock, run through the Cut & Emboss Machine and using the Scalloped Contours Dies, cut out the 2-1/2″ x 3-3/4″ scalloped rectangle and the 1-1/4″ x 2-3/8″ scalloped rectangle.
- Using the small die-cut rectangle, stamp the sentiment onto the die-cut using Black Memento ink and adhere to the bottom right corner of the card front using adhesive.
- Using the larger remaining rectangle die-cut, stamp the Rhino image using Black Memento ink. Color in the Rhino using the Gray Granite Blends. Color in the Wreath, bows and the small bird by the sleigh using the Shaded Spruce Blends. Finish coloring in the packages and bird accessories using the Tahitian Tide Blends. (See sample for how to color these images.)
- Adhere the stamped die-cut onto the top of the card, using Stampin’ Dimensionals and slightly overlapping the top of the sentiment die.
- Finish by adding a bit of Wink of Stella under the sleigh and Rhino to create a a snow bank.
A Tip from Barb
I classified this as a Queen Bee card due to all the die-cutting and coloring. But in truth, this is a fairly quick card thanks to those tools! If you don’t have the Scalloped Contours Dies, you can simply cut two Basic White Rectangles, one at 2″ x 3-3/8″ and the second at 1″ x 2-1/4″. Happy creating!
