Holiday Card Series 2020 – Merry Christmas (ft. SugarPea Designs)

Hello and welcome!

I’m super excited to be featured on SugarPea Designs blog!!! Today I mixed and matched a few amazing SugarCuts to create this holiday project! To start, I die cut adorable type writer and a few leaves and branches using You’re My Type and Floral Pocket Tag SugarCuts. I used colorful cardstock from my stash, but you can start with a plain white paper and easily color the die cut elements with any color media you have on hand. Before gluing all the pieces together, I stamped the sentiment with Memento Tuxedo Black ink from the coordinating You’re My Type stamp set.

An extended A2 size (5 1/2″ X 4 1/4″) white card base was trimmed and scored from Neenah Solar White paper. I layered on top a light pink background achieved by inking a piece of the same Neenah Solar White paper through Geo Snowflake Stencil with Simon Says Stamp Cotton Candy dye ink. Next, towards the center of the card front, I applied a vellum tag die cut from Snowflake Tag set. Once arranged all the die cut elements, I popped the type writer on a foam tape for a fun dimensional look and glued the branches directly to the card base. To give a finish festive and winter touch to this project, I die cut two snowflakes from Snowflake Tag SugarCut. I used again Neenah Solar White paper, then put on top a generous coat of Multi Medium Matte liquid adhesive and covered both die cuts with Distress Clear Rock Candy glitter. I let the glue air dry, shake off the excess and finally added both snowflakes on the card front.
