Seasonal Layers Thinlits Snowflakes (Simple Card I C.A.S.E.D.)

 

Soft Sky layering with a touch of white ribbon, white pearls, & gray ink.

This card is "easy-peasy" but very cute!

I used my "Simply Scored Scoring Tool" to make those 3 lines for the snowflakes.

The flakes come from the "Seasonal Layers Thinlits" (shown on pg. 216) 

in the StampinUP Annual Catalog.

The sentiment above comes from the "Cookie Cutter Christmas" Stamp Set.

Cookie Cutter Christmas Set + Matching Punch = Cute/Simple Gift Card Holder

A version of this project was floating around on Pinterest last Christmas Season.

It took me a whole year to C.A.S.E. it but here you go.......Enjoy!

I used the following StampinUP Products:

-  Teeny Tiny Wishes Stamp Set

-  Cookie Cutter Christmas Stamp Set

-  Cookie Cutter Builder Punch

-  2 Circle Punches (1 3/4 and 2 inch)

-  Classic Label Punch

-  Retired Garden Green Designer Series Paper

-  Linen Thread

Color Combo:  Garden Green, Real Red, White, Chocolate Chip, Crumb Cake

 

The belly band was super easy to make and turned out very cute!

It's purpose is to keep the gift card holder shut of course, but cute is good too!!  : )

 

 

I appreciate you stopping by......Lori

Cookie Cutter Christmas & Matching Builder Punch by StampinUP

When I first could pre-order these new items from the Holiday Catty......I DID!!

I LOVE the "Cookie Cutter Christmas" Stamp Set......

AND the matching "Cookie Cutter Builder Punch"

What about you?  Is it on your Holiday Catalog Wish List?

You can click on the new book on the right hand side of this post if you still do not have a copy.

OR, better yet- contact me for your very own Holiday Catalog!!

Thank you for stopping by, and I hope you enjoy my Christmas Card Samples today......Lori

The Holiday Catalog is Here! Check Out the Cookie Cutter Christmas Set

Besides the new set and punch, I used the

Candy Cane Lane Designer Series Paper (pg. 5)

The 2 tiny red hearts come from the new punch

and I punched the pc. of candy (on the left) directly from the designer paper.

Aren't these gingerbread men just SO cute?  I had fun playing with the brand new set called

"Cookie Cutter Christmas".  Also, along with the set, StampinUp brought us a

"Cookie Cutter Builder Punch" that matches the set.

You can purchase the "Bundle" with both items and save 10%

These adorable products can be found on page 6 in the StampinUP Holiday Catalog.

What?  You do not have your very own copy yet?

Just send me an e-mail to request a catty if you do not already have a StampinUP demo.

If you have questions about my 2 card samples above, let me know please.

Your questions and/or comments on my blog really make my day!!

Thank you- Lori Helvick
