Stampin’ Up! Spruced Up Christmas Card With Video Tutorial

I used the Stampin’ Up! Spruced Up stamp set bundle to create a Christmas card to share with you today. I also did a video tutorial for this card and you can see it on my YouTube channel here.

Stampin' Up! Spruced Up Christmas Card

My card design was inspired by Global Design Project #GDP352.

I started by adhering a panel of Storybook Gnomes DSP to the front of a Thick Basic White card base with Multipurpose Liquid Glue. Then I adhered one of the panels from the Lovely Layers 3-3/4″ x 5″ Vellum to the card front with Stampin’ Seal (hidden under the die cut layers.

I stamped the tree images and lined image from the Spruced Up photopolymer stamp set in Garden Green, Old Olive and Pear Pizzazz inks on panels of Garden Green, Old Olive and Pear Pizzazz card stocks and then cut them with the Spruced Up Outlines Dies. I cut a panel of Sweetest Christmas DSP with one of the Spruced Up Outlines Dies and then adhered the die cut pieces to the card front with Stampin’ Seal, Mini Glue Dots and Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Christmas To Remember stamp set in Pacific Point ink on a panel of Basic White card stock. I cut the sentiment out with one of the openings in the Picture This Dies. I cut a panel of Real Red & White 6″ x 6″ Glimmer Paper with one of the Stylish Shapes Dies and adhered the banner die cut to the back of the sentiment panel with Stampin’ Seal. I adhered the die cut sentiment with Stampin’ Dimensionals to the card front and then added Rhinestone Basic Jewels to finish the card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the Christmas To Remember stamp set in Pacific Point ink and the trees from the Spruced Up stamp set in Garden Green and Pear Pizzazz inks on a panel of Basic White card stock to finish the inside of the card.
