Classy Cards N Such Chrismas Box Card

 The card I made for today is matching some of the weather many of you probably have right now.    The challenge this week at Classy Cards N Such is to make a card with a Christmas Tree with the colors, blue, white, and/or kraft, silver.

I made a box card today.  I started my card using a silver base and the top silver panel was cut at this time, also.  I cut blue layers using Starburst Lichen Aspire Petallic Metallic card stock.   I adhered the card together using 1/4 inch Scor-Tape.

I cut the snow using a cutter.  The Winter Trees are by Sue Wilson.  Next I cut a deer from the Sue Wilson Deer Family - Festive Collection.   I attached the trees and the deer  by using Joy Foam Pads Small. 

The final step to my card was cutting this beautiful Joy sentiment that is also from the Sue Wilson Festive Collection.

This card folds flat to fit an A2 Envelope for mailing.   Yay, no extra postage is needed.    If you would like to make one of these cards you can find a tutorial HERE in post #1.

Thanks, for stopping by today and I hope you liked my card.

Classy Cards N Such - Color Burst Ornament

Good Morning,  Friends.   I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving yesterday.   It was great having 

the family over and as usual,  I ate way too much Pumpkin Pie Cake.  Yes, I had whip cream with it, 

also.    ~grin~

 I have made an unusual card for Classy Cards N Such to share with you today.  This is the first orange and  purple Christmas card I have ever made, but I must say I like it.   Okay, what do you think?

I started with a white card base.  I cut a piece of white and used Ken Oliver Color Bursts in Orange,  Ultramarine Blue and Violet for the next layer.  Then color bursts are real easy to use.  I just sprinkle and spritz.  There are many tutorials on You Tube that will show you step by step how to use them.   I then cut a top layer and used the Spellbinders A2 Curved Borders One to cut the open space so the color burst would show.  

I used the Memory Box Lydia Ornament die with white card stock and placed a piece of the Color Burst paper that I had left over to layer behind the ornament.  I cut a piece of silver card stock to make the hanger for the ornament.   Next I used some orange ribbon for the bow.

I used the Impression Obsession Christmas Sentiments and chose the  Season's Greetings stamp to use on the bottom of my card.  I used Silver Detail embossing powder to emboss the sentiment.

The highlighted items came from the Classy Cards N Such store.   Be sure and check out the store, Beverly might have something special going on today.   If not, you can always use the code Shirley-10 for a ten percent discount. 

Thank you, for stopping by today and we hope to see you here again soon.  If your out there doing Black Friday shopping, be careful and I hope you find lots of bargains.   Have a wonderful weekend.

Nov. 25- POP UP BOX CARD Card by Lois
Nov. 27- A FUN FOLD by Sandy

Here are cards that I made for the hop.   I like to take images made for one occasion and use them for something totally different.

For my first card I used a set made for St. Patick's Day called
"Lots Of Luck"
I thought with coloring the clover a  different color made them look
like a pot of flowers.  The sentiment is from the
Vintage Fashion stamp set.

 

This card was made using the
Christmas Cardinal  Stamp set.
It is perfect for a December Birthday.

Classy Cards N Such Ornament Challenge #112

Good Morning,  I have made a card for the  Classy Cards N Such Ornament challenge for this week.   I just received a new Sue Wilson die and I was eager to make a card with it, so you will see what I have created with it.

The Joy was cut using the Sue Wilson  Joy - Festive Collection.   It has two dies in it.  One is like the one on my card and the other one is really fancy.   I used gold card stock and silver foil from the Foil Paper - Textured Patterns 1.

 The silver foil pine branches were cut using the Impression Obsession Pine Branch die.   The  Cabrini ornament is a Memory Box die. 

I layered my white card base with a layer of gold card stock.  The next layer was embossed using the Dots embossing folder. I made the bow with the Memory Box Precious Hearts die.    I used a silver rhinestone in the center of the bow.  I used  Art Institute Dries Clear Adhesive to attach the die cuts to the dotted layer.

Be sure and join us for this challenge.  We love seeing your beautiful cards.

Here is the Classy Cards Inspiration picture for this challenge:
