Stamp of Approval: The Holiday Magic Collection is Here!

The day is just about here… the day that the newest and “coolestStamp of Approval box comes on sale!  Our newest box, “The Holiday Magic” box, is filled with some amazing stamps, neat dies and some sparkly goodies too!  This new collection does not disappoint people!

Today I’m sharing a really easy card with you…

Here’s a close up of all the sparkle and shine it contains:

It’s very easy to make:
  1. Create a top folding A2 sized card (4 1/4” x 5 1/2”). Round the bottom left corner and the top right hand corner.
  2. Trim a piece of gingham paper to 5 3/8” x 1 1/4”.  Round the bottom left corner.
  3. Trim a piece of gold foiled paper to 5 3/8” x 1/2”. Round the bottom left corner.
  4. Trim a piece of white cardstock to 5 3/8” x 3 1/8”. Round the bottom left corner and the top right hand corner.
  5. Using the snowflake dies, cut three snowflakes; one large (purple cardstock), one medium (white cardstock) and one small (gold foiled cardstock).  Add some Versamark ink to the white snowflake and heat emboss it with a clear crystal embossing powder for some shimmer.
  6. Layer all the snowflakes using glue dots and add a “messy nest” of gold string to the back.
  7. Using Versamark ink, stamp the greeting on the white cardstock panel, Add gold embossing powder and heat set.
  8. Adhere the gingham and gold foiled papers to the card base. 
  9. Adhere the white panel with the sentiment to the card front using foam adhesive.  Adhere the snowflake cluster.
  10. Add sequins.
