Today’s More Color Monday is a SNEAK PEAK of the upcoming holiday catalog starting September 1st – the September through December 2026 catalog – it is packed full of Fall and Holiday sets as well as other fun sets and items – I cannot wait for you to get your hands on it! They will be available at my Open House next month and also to pick or mail!

This Dreamy Snowflakes bundle is delightful with a hybrid embossing folder and delicate snowflake dies the possibilities are endless.

Today’s More Color Monday color challenge features a set of two cool tone cards using Pretty peacock, Shaded Spruce and Azure Afternoon! I also used the upcoming Designer Series Paper Whispering Woods which is our annual GIVE BACK promotion – Small choices can make a BIG difference. With every purchase of Our Whispering Woods DSP Stampin’ Up! will donate $3 to organizations that help spread Holiday cheer! An extra reason to feel great about your crafting!

Measurements:
BASE: Azure Afternoon CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 1 1/4″ and 5 1/2″ then flip it 180
degrees so the small tab is on the right-hand
side
Basic White CS: (2) 4″ x 5 1/4″, 2 3/4″ x 5 1/4″
and a scrap piece
DSP: 1″ x 5 1/4″

Blend the three colors with blending brushes on one of the 4″ x 5 1/4″ pieces of Basic White CS. Then splatter by flicking the ink from the brush tip side of the Dark Azure Afternoon Stampin’ Blends marker onto the blended paper.

For the first card I cut out all of the delicate snowflake dies and for the second card I stamped the trio of snowflakes in Pretty Peacock ink over the blended background and cut them out.

Score the base card at 1 1/4″ and 5 1/2″ and then turn 180 degrees so that the smaller tab is on the right-hand side.

Using the other 4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic White layer stamp the snowflake border at the bottom of the layer in Pretty Peacock ink.

Stamp the six sided border in Azure Afternoon ink and then stamp the sentiment inside that.
Blend the surface with the three inks and die cut.
Emboss the surface with the hybrid embossing folder. Adhere to the center of the border stamped layer.

Cut one of the extra snowflakes and adhere to the lower edge.

Adhere to the inside center panel of the card base.

Adhere the Whispering Woods watercolor wash pattern to the outside of the smaller panel.

emboss the 2 3/4″ x 5 1/4″ Basic White CS layer in the hybrid Dreamy Snowflakes embossing folder and adhere to the outside left-hand side panel.

Adhere the snowflake die border to the left-hand side of the embossed layer.

Did you know that if you take a small dab of our “green glue” (Multi-Purpose glue) and allow it to dry it will become tacky to the touch and be a semi permanent glue that you can use as a fastening tool!

Here I added it to the tip of the sentiment banner to allow it to be the fastener to close the card!

Adhere and pop up the rest of the delicate snowflake dies on over the embossed layer.

Stamp the Merry Christmas sentiment in the banner die and adhere over the gate fold edge.

The second card used the stamped and die cut snowflakes for a totally different look!

This is one of my favorite bundles in the new catalog – let me know if you would like a catalog!

Now it’s your turn to start thinking about what you will be making for Christmas for your friends, neighbors and family! Go and create – one stamp at a time!

Happy Stampin”

I realized that I did not add bling – that’s a sin in this studio LOL so I added Basic Rhinestone Jewels to both cards and rephotographed them!
