Golden Bells

I decided to go through my wood mounted stamps. I found this beautiful set that needed some love. What do you think? 

Stamps:

   Bells and Boughs

Paper:

   Always Artichoke A-2, 2-1/2" Sq. (3)

   Deck the Halls DSP 5-1/4 x 2

   Cherry Cobbler 5-1/4 x 4

   Basic White 2" Circle (3), 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

Ink:

   Tuxedo Black Memento

   Always Artichoke

Markers:

   Always Artichoke

   Pear Pizzazz

   Cherry Cobbler

   Real Red

   Basic Black

   Stampin' Dazzle Gold

Technique:

   Dry Embossing

   Punching

Accessories:

   Gold Wink of Stella

   Starburst Punch

   2" Circle Punch

   Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder

   Gold Metallic Pearls

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I dry embossed the Cherry Cobbler panel, using the Eyelet 3D Embossing Folder.

I then adhered the Deck the Halls DSP strip on the left side of the panel, using liquid adhesive. This allows the panel to adhere well.

Next, I adhered the panel onto the Always Artichoke card front.

I then stamped the bells on two Basic White 2" Circles and the sentiment on another, using Tuxedo Black Memento.

Next, I used markers to color the bells:

    Always Artichoke - Center of the Leaves

    Pear Pizzazz - Fill the Leaves

    Cherry Cobbler - Berries & Circles & Lines on Bells

    Real Red - Ribbon on Bells

    Basic Black - Outline Image & Ringer on Bell

    Stampin' Dazzle Gold - Bells (Do not cover Basic Black Outline)

I then used the Starburst Punch to create an Always Artichoke matte for each of the three 2" Circles. I adhered each circle to an Always Artichoke matte.

Next, I arranged the circles on the card front and attached them, using dimensionals.

Lastly, I added a few Gold Metallic Pearls and adhered a Basic White panel to the inside of the card.

Poinsettia Christmas

This beautiful designer paper made the card. All I had to do was adhere the layers together and add a sentiment. Of course, as soon as the paper runs out, I am back to square one. I could have chosen to color in the other poinsettias, but I chose to leave the paper alone. What do you think? 

Stamps:

   Bells & Boughs

Paper:

   Very Vanilla A-2, 2-1/4 x 1-3/4, 5-1/4 x 4 (Inside)

   Cherry Cobbler 4-1/8 x 5-3/8

   Deck the Halls DSP 5-1/4 x 4

Ink:

   Cherry Cobbler

Technique:

   Sponging

   Punching

Accessories:

   Extra-Large Oval Punch

   Sponge

   Dimensionals

   Adhesive

First, I stamped my sentiment and punched it out using the large-oval punch. 

I then sponged the edges and attached it using dimensionals.

Lastly, I adhered my layers together. The other Very Vanilla panel is for the inside of the card. This panel is optional, since the card base is Very Vanilla. I think it finishes the card nicely. What do you think? Do you add the extra to your cards or save the paper?
