Twinkling Copper Stars and Printed Ribbon Create a Bright Christmas
What is better than a few twinkling copper stars your Christmas and Holiday Cards. The Brightly Gleaming Foil Elements on page 31 of the 2019 Holiday Catalogue certainly will meet the need.
The 2019 Holiday Catalogue is extraordinary this year. And, yes, I have to contain myself as to the products I purchase (sob, sob).
Twinkling Copper Stars Recipe
Stamp Sets: Christmas Gleaming*.
Ink: Mossy Meadow, VersaMark.
Paper: Night of Navy (8-1/2″ x 5-1/2″ score at 4-1/4″, and 4″ x 5-1/4″) and score at 4-1/4″ and burnish with Bone Folder, Brightly Gleaming Specialty Designer Series Paper (3-3/4″ x 3″), Mossy Meadow (scarps for leaves), Very Vanilla (scrap for berries)
Accessories: DIe Cutting and Embossing Machine, 1/2″ Classic Weave Ribbon, Hammered Metal 3-D Embossing Folder, Copper Stampin’ Emboss Powder, Brightly Gleaming Foil Elements, Heat Tool.
Create Your Card
- Create the Night of Navy card base (see cutting measurements above)
- Emboss the Night of Navy panel using the Hammered Metal 3-d Embossing folder. At this point do not attach to your card base.
- Layer the designer series paper on the embossed panel.
- Cut a piece of the classic weave ribbon – 6-1/2″ and another piece at 4-1/4″.
- Attach the ends of the longer ribbon piece behind the embossed panel. Now you can attach this panel to the card base.
- Use a large star from the Brightly Gleaming Foil Elements to the dsp. It does not have to be centered.
- Stamp the Mossy Meadow scrap cs with the leaf from the stamp set and Mossy Meadow Ink. Fussy cut using your Paper Snips.
- On a scrap piece of Very Vanilla, stamp the berries with VersaMark ink. Sprinkle with Copper emboss powder and heat set with Heat tool. Fussy cut.
- Attach the leaves and berries with Mini Dimensionals.
- Take the shorter ribbon and tie around the attached ribbon and knot. You now have a faux bow.
- On the inside, stamp a verse on a Very Vanilla panel (4″ x 5-1/4″) and attach. Cut a strip of the same dsp that you used on the card front (5-1/2″ x 3/4″) and attach to the Very Vanilla panel at the bottom. Attach the panel to the inside of the card.
- The best part is that you don’t need a sentiment because the ribbon says it over and over “Merry Christmas”.
- You did it!
