I used the new Stampin’ Up! Jingle All the Way stamp set and Sleigh Ride Edgelits Bundle from the upcoming 2015 Holiday Catalog to create my card to share today.
The pastel colors for my card were inspired by Merry Monday #168.
I started by adhering a panel from the Holidays Fancy Foil Designer Vellum (available Sept 1) to a panel of Pool Party card stock with SNAIL. I ran the SNAIL on the lower edge of the panel so that it would be hidden under the die cuts. Then I adhered the layered panel to a Soft Sky card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I used the tree die from the Sleigh Ride Edgelits Dies to cut a panel of Pool Party card stock and I adhered the panel to the card front with SNAIL. I cut a panel of Soft Sky card stock with the house die from that die set and adhered it to the card front with SNAIL.
I cut a Whisper White panel with the sleigh die from the Sleigh Ride Edgelits Dies set, then stamped the sentiment from the Jingle All The Way stamp set in Pool Party ink under it. I adhered the stamped panel to the card front with SNAIL.
I adhered a Winter Wonderland Embellishment with a Glue Dot under the sentiment to finish the card front.
I stamped the images from the Jingle All The Way stamp set in Soft Sky ink on a Whisper White panel inside the card.
I’ve had a few questions about how I did the die cutting for this card. This is how I placed the dies so that they overlapped the way that I wanted them to. I started with three panels of 4″ x 5-1/4″ card stock (one Pool Party, one Soft Sky and one Whisper White). As I placed each die, I stacked the next layer on top of the previous one so that I’d know where to line the edges of the dies up.
Once I had the dies all placed and taped down, I ran them through the big shot individually to cut them and I adhered them together with SNAIL. I hope that helps!

Delightful Christmas card, love every detail. Thanks for sharing at Merry Monday.
Thanks for stopping by to leave a comment! 🙂
This card is stunning! I have a question… how did you attach the top of the vellum ? I see you said you attached the bottom with Snail but how did you attach the top?
Thanks so much Barbara! I actually didn’t attach the top of the vellum, it’s loose but it lays down fairly flat. The only place that I’ve attached it is hidden under the die cuts. 🙂
I love this card. But why is it impossible to print the instructions from your site. I like to keep instructions for future reference. Love your creations.
I’m glad that you like my card Linda, sorry that you’re having problems printing the instructions. You can try to open it in another browser (sometimes Google Chrome does not work well for printing) or you can copy and paste the information into a Word document and print it that way. Hope that helps! 🙂
Thanks so much for sharing all of the dimensions, lovely card to case!!!!
So glad that you liked it Eileen! CASE away! 🙂
Hi Amy,
I have been getting your email updates for a while now and wanted to tell you just how beautiful this card is. I have seen many, many cards using these dies, but yours by far outdoes all of them. And I so appreciate the pictorial directions on how you achieved this finished card! Thank you so much for sharing your talent with us. 🙂
God bless you,
Linda Snyder
Thanks Linda! I’m so glad that you find the extra instructions useful. 🙂
Sorry to be slow, but is the blue tape, painter’s tape or something special to not mar the paper?
No worries, it’s just the standard blue painters tape that you can buy at any home improvement store or even at Target and Walmart. 🙂
