Make a Mitten Thank You and More Sneak Peeks!

Today I’m sharing another thank you card that I made with the Make a Mitten and Itty Bitty Banners stamp sets from Stampin’ Up. This card has items from the Winter Catalog that will be ending on January 2 and a few sneak peeks at the Spring 2013 Catalog that will begin January 3.

I started with an Old Olive card base cut to 4-1/4″ x 8-1/2″ and scored at 4-1/4″. Then I cut a strip of Real Red Core’dinations Card Stock to 1-1/4″ x 5-1/4″ , embossed it with the Delicate Designs Embossing Folder, sanded the raised areas and adhered it to the card base. Next, I cut a strip of the Old Olive Polka Dot Parade DSP to 1-3/4″ x 5-1/4″ and adhered it to the card base. Then I cut a rectangle of the Real Red Polka Dot Parade DSP to 1-3/4″ x 2-3/4″ and I adhered it to a Whisper White rectangle that was cut to 2-1/8″ x 3-1/8″ and I adhered the layered rectangles to the right side of the card front. Then I cut an oval from Real Red and Whisper White Card Stock using the new Ovals Collection Framelits and I embossed the Real Red oval with the Argyle Embossing Folder. I adhered the two ovals together, then to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals. Next, I stamped the mitten image twice from the Make A Mitten stamp set in Old Olive ink on Whisper White Paper and I punched them out with the Mitten Builder Punch. Then I punched out the mitten caps from Red Glimmer Paper using the Mitten Builder Punch too. I adhered the mitten and mitten caps together, then adhered a piece of Whisper White Baker’s Twine to the back of each Mitten. I adhered the mitten on left to the oval layers using Stampin’ Dimensionals and the mitten on the right using SNAIL Adhesive. I finished the card by coloring the thank you sentiment from the Itty Bitty Banners stamp set with my Old Olive and Real Red Stampin’ Markers and stamping it on a piece of Whisper White Card Stock. I adhered the sentiment using Stampin’ Dimensionals on the left side and SNAIL adhesive on the right side (the part that is attached to the ovals).

Still working my way through the holiday thank you stack. But I’ve got a very springy sneak peek for you tomorrow with some new Designer Series Paper and some beautiful Flower Trim so be sure to stop back to check it out!
