Peek-a-Boo Snowflake Card for Christmas Stamper's Dozen

 Do you still give out Christmas cards? Do you still mail out Christmas cards? It seems like fewer people still do that. I wonder if this year will be any different? I still look forward to the ones I receive each Christmas, and it hasn't changed all that much. Of course I still love to make Christmas cards, so I love to share them with friends and family. That's why I still have things like Christmas Stamper's Dozen Classes. That's where you make 12 cards - three each of four designs!

Of course this year, it has to be an online class, but that shouldn't be too much of a problem with simple cards and all the die-cutting and embossing done for the class participants. 

I wanted to share another sample from the class. This one includes the Snowflake Splendour Designer Series Paper with a large die cut snowflake in the front of the 4" x 4" front panel, with Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper peeking out from behind.

• The Highland Heather cardstock card base is a good match for the watercolour-like DSP from the Snowflake Splendour series.
• From the 3 3/4" x 3 3/4" panel the large snowflake die from the So Many Snowflakes Dies was used to cut a snowflake-shaped hole right in the middle of the DSP. 
• It was mounted over a 3 1/2" square piece of Balmy Blue Glimmer Paper using Dimensionals.
• The sentiment is from the Snowflake Wishes stamp set but any long sentiment would do. It's stamped on the Balmy Blue banner using Balmy Blue ink.
• Blue Adhesive-Backed Gems are added to the centers of a few snowflake designs on the front of the DSP to finish up.

This card is a simple one to do and would be good for mass-producing Christmas cards at home.

UnDynamic Duo Challenge Christmas Card.

I really like Dynamic Duos Challenges.  I guess I'm a two-colour kinda gal.  But I missed this week's challenge due to being away on the Rising Star trip, and it was a combo that I really liked, or I thought I did.
I thought it was Sahara Sand and Always Artichoke, but I was wrong!

That's okay.  I think I like Sahara Sand with Always Artichoke better.  I'm back to Christmas Cards, because I have a Christmas Stamper's Dozen coming up next week and I need some simple designs because we make 3 each of 4 designs. They have to be simple in order for us to finish on time.  I just ordered the single stamp Christmas Star, and decided to put it to use right away on this card.  Besides, after three other Christmas Stamper's Dozens, I'm running low on new stamp sets to feature.

• That Christmas Star is huge.  I stamped it on Whisper White with VersaMark ink and embossed it with Pewter Embossing powder.  I chose pewter rather than silver for a more rustic look.
• I dry-embossed the Sahara Sand panel with the Modern Mosaic embossing folder and added some of the 1 1/4" Burlap Ribbon, adding to the rusticity. (Ha! I thought I made that up - but it's a real word - meaning the condition of being rustic!)
• The sentiment is from Joy To the World, stamped in Always Artichoke on Whisper White and fussy cut around the edges, in order to fit it neatly on the card and not collide with that star.

• I added a few Rhinestones for bling and contrast, and that's the whole thing.  It might be a bit too simple for some tastes, but it will work for the Stamper's Dozen.

I've found a new website that will create a supplies list with each supply linked to my Stampin' Up Store, so I'll add the supplies I used for this card, as created on TheseAreMyStamps!  Such a time saver!
