Holiday Wishes

This card started with a blue cardstock from Memory Box.  The card was folded with the blue on the inside and white on the outside.  A scallop was cut to create the look of a mountain on the front of the card.  The snowman was stamped on the lower part of the mountain and again on white cardstock.  The snowman was cut and placed on the mountain with dimensional tape.  The blue ribbon was used for a scarf.  The nose was colored with orange Marvy marker.  The inside of the card was stamped with multiple tree images from Rubber Soul and brown Versafine ink.  The stamps are from My Sentiments Exactly.  The ribbon is from Daisy Bucket.  Stickles was added to the snowman and trees.  The ribbon for the scarf was torn to create a look of fringe on the scarf.  This detail is not clear in the photo.

Santa

This card was made with the Spellbinders Label 3 dies.  The santa was stamped on red, white, and black paper.  The black and white images were cut and pieced onto the red image.  the black boots were covered with Glossy Accents.  White Liquid Applique was used on the hat.  The background Christmas paper is from American Traditional Designs Holiday Cheer collection.  The red and green cardstock are from Memory Box.   A white ribbon was added between layers of the designer paper and red cardstock.  The santa stamp is from Holly Berry House; the words are from Rubber Soul.  All stamping was done with black Versafine Ink.  The center of this card would make a nice tag for kids Christmas packages.

Merry Christmas
