Welcome back to another Inkin’ Krew blog hop!  Our very talented team is doing a blog hop featuring Stampin’ Up! products.  This month we are all creating projects with a “Merry Christmas or Happy Holidays” theme and I’m featuring the Festive Friends stamp set bundle for my card.

My card design works for the Just Us Girls Challenge #800.

I started by embossing a panel of patterned paper from the Beautiful Bokeh 6″ x 6″ DSP with the Beautiful Patterns Embossing Folder (Online Exclusive item).  I adhered the embossed panel to a panel of Basic White card stock with Stampin’ Seal and then to the front of the Bubble Bath card base with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I adhered one of the smaller Lovely Doilies (Online Exclusive item) to the card front with Stampin’ Seal in the area that would be covered with the snowman and pine trees.  Then I cut a panel of Basic White card stock with the pine tree die from the Festive Friends Dies three times and I adhered the trees to the card front with Stampin’ Seal.

I stamped the snowman image from the Festive Friends stamp set (Online Exclusive item) in Tuxedo Black Memento ink on a panel of Basic White card stock.  I colored the stamped snowman with Light and Dark Bubble Bath, Pumpkin Pie and Balmy Blue Stampin’ Blends Markers.  I used the color lifter to lighten the coloring on the snowman face and body and then cut the image out with the coordinating Festive Friends Dies (Online Exclusive item).  I adhered the die cut snowman to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

I stamped the sentiment from the Festive Friends stamp set in Balmy Blue ink on a panel of Basic White card stock and then cut it out with the banner die from the Festive Friends Dies.  I adhered the die cut to the card front with Stampin’ Dimensionals and then added two of the Frosted Iridescent Dots to finish the card front.

I stamped the sentiment and snowflake images from the Festive Friends stamp set in Balmy Blue and Bubble Bath inks on a panel of Basic White card stock to finish the inside of the card.
