Wrapping Up Christmas Part II – Farmhouse Holidays

Need to use up some DSP? This sweet layout can help with that, and the design can easily be translated to any card you need to make in the moment!

Measurements:

  • Crumb Cake Card Base 4 1/4″ x 11″ scored at 5 1/2″
  • White Card Stock Layer 3 7/8″ x 5 1/8″
  • DSP Layer 3 3/4″ x 4 7/8″

Details:

  • CASEing cards has helped me keep my sanity this holiday season! Today’s design was case’d from Britney Vanderlaan, I just changed up the sentiment and the embellishments!
  • I tend to forget to use big banners on my cards, that’s another benefit of looking at other designers’ cards! These wide banners really ground the sentiment from Farmhouse Christmas, which is still available through Jan 3, 2019 so grab it if you like it!
  • Can you see the texture on the Crumb Cake banner? That’s the Corrugated embossing folder – SO awesome for a rustic look!

  • This darling sentiment was stamped in black and then die cut using the Stitched Shapes Framelits Dies and the coordinating scalloped circle in Mossy Meadow was die cut using the Layering Circles Framelits Dies. I really like how just a hint of the scallop shows up, creating a subtle bit of depth 🙂
  • I stamped the sentiment again in Cherry Cobbler and the stitched banner die from the coordinating Farmhouse Framelits Dies was used to create the banner. I then layered it on top of the circle die with Stampin’ Dimensionals. Super Cute!
  • A bit of Festive Farmhouse Cotton Twine in Cherry Cobbler was used to tie a double bow. Hint: I cut two short pieces of the twine, laid them across the card front, adhered the tails to the back of the card stock, and then used two other lengths of twine to tie the bow onto the front of the card.
  • The finishing touch was 3 retired Cherry Cobbler enamel shapes – I love how things I’ve purchased in the past coordinate so easily with current product – that keeps me coming back for more!! 🙂

    Hi Shannon,
    I’m so glad my card inspired you! Yours is beautiful! It’s a quick layout that like you said can be changed out to create any occasion card!
    Thank you for the link back!

      Phyllis, I’m so sorry I missed your question about locating the Festive Farmhouse DSP, I’ve been away from blogging for a bit. The DSP you were asking about is from Stampin’ Up!, it was part of their holiday offering in 2018, but retired at the end of that catalog period. If you are still interested in finding some, you might try eBay, Etsy, or buy/sell group on Facebook. Or perhaps contact a local demonstrator (you can look them up on the Stampin’ Up! website in their demonstrator locator) and see if they have some they might be willing to sell. Best of luck, it sure is a lovely design!! XX

    Your card is so cute!! I’m copying it today. But I think the DSP measurement should be 3 3/4 x 5 (rather than 4 7/8). Thank you so much for sharing.
