Hello fellow stampers! Welcome to week 6 of the Heart of Christmas Stampin’ Up! blog hop for 2023! Each week until 27 November the Art With Heart team will showcase Christmas cards and projects to inspire you to create your own.
For my card this week I have used several die sets with minimal stamping to build the fireplace scene with Christmas stockings hanging below the wreath on the fireplace mantle. I have used the Saint Nicholas die set to cut out the following little pieces:
- stockings (Garden Green card stock)
- fireplace frame (wood-like Joy of Christmas DSP)
- logs (Early Espresso card stock)
- fireplace mantle (Smoky Slate card stock).
The Joy of Noel die set was used to die cut the pine foliage from Garden Green card stock.
Once all the pieces were die cut I assembled my card. To my Basic White card base I adhered a die cut Deckled Rectangle in Basic White card stock to the pine needles DSP layer from A Walk in the Forest.
The fireplace itself is die cut using the square shape from Stylish Shapes die set and has been dry embossed with the Painted Texture 3D embossing folder. I have added some Festive Pearls coloured with Dark Real Red Stampin’ Blends marker to each stocking.
I really love the font in the sentiment which was stamped with Real Red ink and is from the Stars at Night stamp set. I also stamped some foliage in Garden Green from the Joy of Noel stamp set. The DSP banners have been die cut from the Joy of Christmas DSP using the He’s all That die set. Even the sentiment circle was die cut using the same set.
