Merry Christmas Quite Curvy Variety Bundle Stampin' Up!

Hello crafty friends!  I'm excited that you've stopped by to check out my latest creations and today I have a clean crisp Christmas card for you!  

Measurements are given during the video (below), and a supply list is at the bottom of this post. Plus, be sure to check out my Quite Curvy Online Class!

My Grandmother had a white cottage with dark green shutters, and I'm certain that's why I love Whisper White & Shaded Spruce together!

I've used the Classic Christmas 6 x 6 DSP & dies all in the Quite Curvy Variety Bundle.  It may surprise you that some patterns in the DSP can be used year-round - how awesome is that!   

I inked up the trees, from Rooted in Nature in Shaded Spruce, stamped off on scrap and then on Whisper White, then cut them using the Nature's Roots Dies.  These stamps and dies are 'keepers'!  Are they in your craft stash?

You'll find this sentiment in the Curvy Christmas stamp set.  For this card, I heat embossed in white, then die cut using the Stitched So Sweetly dies from the Annual Catalogue.  

I wrapped Linen Thread around the panel, and tied a double bow as well using the same thread.

I thought about using Basic Pearls or Rhinestones, then remembered my Frost White Shimmer Paint - yay!  Rather than splatter the paint, I used a small stylus to make random dots of yummy shimmer!

Quite Curvy Variety Bundle Stampin' Up! Positive Inkers Blog Hop!

Hi and welcome back to our Positive Inkers monthly blog hop!  I'm excited to announce our global design team now has 2 new members- Jo Blackman & Anne Marie Hile!  

This month we designed cards based on this sketch:

Here's my card!  I used elements from the Quite Curvy Variety Bundle (available Nov 3rd).

I may be obsessed with the Classic Christmas DSP (pssst...not just for Christmas), and the ivy from the Quite Curvy stamp set.  To colour the ivy, I first stamped in Memento ink, then used my Purple Posy, Highland Heather and Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends. 

Basic Rhinestones, Polka Dot Tulle Ribbon, and greenery die cut in Basic Black & Silver Foil blend in wonderfully with the ivy.

I love the sentiment from the Very Versailles set!  The font is so elegant!  I heat embossed using White Stampin' Emboss Powder, and fussy cut around the sentiment.

Have you embossed your DSP?  It's one of my fave things to do to add texture and interest to a card! I used the Tasteful Textile 3D Embossing Folder.
