I used the Stampin’ Up! Merriest Wishes stamp set bundle to create my card to share today.
My card design was inspired by Freshly Made Sketches 253.
The bow on my tag was inspired by Cupcake Inspiration Challenge 375.
I started by adhering a panel from the Warmth & Cheer DSP Stack to a panel of Cherry Cobbler card stock with SNAIL. I adhered the layered panel to a Crumb Cake card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
I embossed a panel from the Gold Foil Sheets with the Softly Falling Embossing Folder. I adhered the embossed panel to a panel of Cherry Cobbler card stock and then to the card front with SNAIL. I adhered two strips from the Warmth & Cheer Designer Washi Tape over the Gold Foil panel.
I cut the tree tag with the Merry Tags Framelits Dies from Cherry Cobbler card stock. I stamped the sentiment from the Merriest Wishes stamp set in VersaMark Ink on the tag, sprinkled it with Gold Stampin’ Emboss Powder and heat embossed it. I cut a second solid tag from Garden Green card stock with the tag die from the Merry Tags Framelits Dies and adhered it to the back of the Cherry Cobbler tag with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. I used the tree tag to cut a star from Gold Foil Sheets and the tree base from Crumb Cake card stock and I adhered the pieces inside the die cut spaces with Multipurpose Liquid Glue.
I pulled a strand of Cherry Cobbler Ribbon from the 3/8″ Silky Taffeta Ribbon Combo Pack through the top of the tag and then tied it with a strand of Garden Green Baker’s Twine from the Baker’s Twine Trio Pack. I adhered the tag to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals to finish it.
I stamped the sentiment from the Merriest Wishes stamp set in Crumb Cake ink on a panel of Whisper White card stock and then adhered a strip from the Warmth & Cheer DSP stack on the inside of the card.

That dry embossing on the gold foil caught my attention and makes a perfect bkgrd for that cute cute tag with the gold embossing. Great take on both sketches. TFS
