I used the Stampin’ Up! Shepherd’s Care stamp set to create a quick Christmas card to share with you today. I made this card out on my Instagram account this morning and you can find it here.

My card works for the Tic Tac Toe Challenge #TTTC255. I went straight across the middle.
I started stamping the star image from the Shepherd’s Care stamp set (available September 4) in VersaMark ink on the front of a Basic Beige card base, sprinkled it with gold embossing powder from the Metallics Wow! Embossing Powder and then heat embossed it. I applied 1″ Post-It Note Tape around the edges of the card front and then used a Blending Brush to apply Misty Moonlight ink to the center of the card.

I inked the dots image from the Shepherd’s Care stamp set with Misty Moonlight ink, stamped it on scrap paper and then stamped it over the card front. I removed the Post-It Note masks and then stamped the images from the Shepherd’s Care stamp set in Misty Moonlight ink on the card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the Shepherd’s Care stamp set in VersaMark ink on a panel of Misty Moonlight card stock and then heat embossed it with gold embossing powder. I cut the sentiment out with one of the Something Fancy Dies and adhered it with Stampin’ Dimensionals to finish the card front.

I stamped the sentiment from the Shepherd’s Care stamp set in Misty Moonlight ink on a panel of Basic White card stock and then inked the Shepherd’s Care images in Misty Moonlight ink, stamped them on scrap paper once and then stamped then on the Basic White card stock panel to finish the inside of the card.
You can see a list of supplies used to create this project, including the card stock cuts, at the very bottom of this blog post.
