Wonderland Card - DSC#156

Hi Stampers,

Well...Halloween is over and now we move onto Thanksgiving and Christmas Cards. I actually just finished posting details for my upcoming Christmas Card Class on December 10th. Crazy isn't it? Time is just flying!

The colors on this weeks challenge definitely give me the feeling of Christmas.  Here is my take on this weeks DOstamper Thursday DSC#156 Color My World Challenge!  I was dying to use my my Wonderland Stamp Set.  The pine trees on this stamp are much taller than what I stamped onto the card, I only used the top 2/3 of the stamp. What a beautiful peaceful looking stamp set.

I used Crumb Cake CS for my card base, followed by Basic Black CS for layer 1 on the card.  Layer 2 is a Cherry Cobbler colored patterned paper from the Merry Moments DSP. The music patterned paper was from the new Home For Christmas DSP.  I stamped the pines using the  Wonderland Stamp Set and Mossy Meadow Ink.  Then I used a 2-Way Glue Pen on tips of the pines and sprinkled with Dazzling Diamonds Glitter.  I placed a Tea Lace Doily on top of the paper layer before attaching.

The envelope was made using the Envelope Punch Board and liner was made withe the black pattern paper from the Happy Hauntings DSP.  The finishing touch was to add the beautiful Gold Satin Ribbon and a trail of Gold Cording Trim. 

Basic Instructions:

• Cut Crumb Cake CS base 8-1/2" x 11" and score at 5-1/2".
• Cut Basic Black CS @ 4" x 5-1/4".
• Cut Merry Moments DSP @ 3-3/4" x 5".
• Cut the Home For Christmas DSP @ 3-1/4" x 4-1/2".  On that paper, use Mossy Meadow Ink, to stamp the trees from the Wonderland Stamp Set.  Now use the 2-Way Glue Pen on tips of the pines and sprinkle with Dazzling Diamonds Glitter.   Attach the Tea Lace Doily on top of the paper before attaching with the dimensionals.
• Tie the bow with the Gold Satin Ribbon and Gold Cording Trim. 
• Envelope and Envelope Liner were made with the Envelope Punch Board and the Happy Hauntings DSP.
