peace on earth christmas card – upcoming mini catalog sneakpeak

peace on earth christmas card – upcoming mini catalog sneakpeak

Starting in September comes a new holiday mini catalog – the September to December 2025 Mini Catalog! I will have copies available at my Open House – Friday, August 22nd 12pm – 3pm and Saturday, August 23rd 9am to 12pm!

This is one of the products we could pre-order and this one was featured in a demonstrator exclusive craft day a few weeks back!

This is a card I designed for the Christmas in July Demonstrator Swap! It features the Peace on Earth bundle along with the Peaceful Greenery 3D embossing folder and a fun technique.

Measurements:
BASE: Secret Sea CS: 5 1/2″ x 8 1/2″
scored at 4 1/4″
Misty Moonlight CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″
Peaceful Garden Glimmer Paper: 2″ x 3″
Basic White CS: 4″ x 5 1/4″

Place the Misty Moonlight layer in the Peaceful Greenery 3D embossing folder and run through the Stampin’ Cut and Emboss machine using the Base plate #1 and the grey embossing plate #4 with the embossing folder sandwiched in between #1 and #4.
Using a direct to paper technique rub Versamark ink onto the edges of the embossed layer.
Using the brush that comes in the Embossing Additions Tool Kit (#159971) $27.00 dip the brush into the Silver embossing powder and then tap the powder from the brush onto the versamark ink covered paper. Heat with the Heat Tool until the embossing powder melts.

(Product Details for the Embossing Additions Tool Kit: Make embossing easier with the Embossing Additions Tool Kit. This kit includes an Embossing Buddy, Powder Pal, Crafting Tweezers, and Crafting Brush. The Embossing Buddy is a small bag of powder. Rub it over your paper before inking and embossing. This ensures the embossing powder stays only where you want it. The Powder Pal is an easy way to catch and funnel excess embossing powder back into its container. Use the Crafting Tweezers to hold items while embossing them. And the Crafting Brush is handy for brushing powder for keeping your paper and work area clean. Keep this kit on hand, and you’ll what you need to keep your embossing neat and tidy.

Stamp the Peace on Earth sentiment in Secret Sea ink in the middle of the embossing folder outlined middle area.
Adhere the embossed layer to the Secret Sea cardstock card base.
Die cut the smaller dove image out of the silver hue Peaceful Garden glimmer paper and two of the stars.

Place it on the card front to see where you would like to adhere the dove.

Adhere the two stars to the right and slightly below the sentiment.
Place Stampin’ Seal + below where the dove will be adhered and fold a 5″ piece of Misty Moonlight and Silver edged ribbon that is part of the Peaceful Garden Suite of products, adhere the ribbon down and then remove the release paper from some Stampin’ Dimensionals on the back of the dove and adhere over the ribbon.
Adhere some Basic Rhinestone Jewels to the card front.
Stamp wishing you and Peace, Love and Joy in Secret Sea ink to the Basic White layer and adhere to the inside of the card.
The embossing powder dusting gives the edges of the card an antiqued look and enhances the Glimmer paper dove and stars for a gorgeous Christmas card!

This is a lovely set that can be used for so much more than just Christmas! Let me know if you would like a catalog and will not be at my Open House or upcoming Library Card classes and I will get one to you!

Now go and create some artwork of your very own – one stamp at a time!
As a reminder since this is a sneak peak and the products are not available until September 3rd for customers the photo links will not be available below.

Happy Stampin’
