Day 1: White Christmas

Welcome to the first post in my 12 Days of Christmas Cards series. Today I have a simple card featuring a vintage-looking scene made with the White Christmas stamp set.

Supplies (all Stampin' Up!):
Stamps: White Christmas, Hardwood
Paper: Soft Suede, So Saffron, Pool Party, Very Vanilla
Ink: Soft Suede, So Saffron, Pool Party, Tangelo Twist
Accessories: Ovals Collection Framelits dies, Banner punch, Occasions Paper-Piercing pack, paper-piercing tool, Neutrals Candy Dots, sponge, Dimensionals

I stamped the images using Soft Suede ink and colored in just a few details with markers. I cut out the scene using the Ovals Collection Framelits dies, pierced a border and lightly sponged the edge. Pool Party and So Saffron banners add a little bit of color, and everything is adhered to a Soft Suede card base stamped with the Hardwood background stamp in Soft Suede. You could change the sentiment or omit the So Saffron banner to make this card appropriate for other winter holidays.

Come back tomorrow for the second entry in my 12 Days of Christmas Cards blog series. Thanks for stopping by!
