Stitched With Cheer Archives

I have been making some Christmas cards recently and I thought I would share a couple of them with you today. I used the, oh so popular, Cookie Cutter Christmas and the gorgeous gingerbread man.

I stamped 3 gingerbread men in Early Espresso ink onto Crumb Cake cardstock and punched them out with the Cookie Cutter Builder Punch. I dressed them up with bows in Real Red and So Saffron and a bow-tie in Soft Sky ink stamped onto Soft Sky cardstock and added them to a Whisper White layer with Dimensionals. I added the tiny snowflake from the Star of Light stamp set. The sentiment, from the Stitched With Cheer stamp set was stamped in Early Espresso and die cut with the Big Shot using the Bunch of Banners framelit dies. The upper right corner of the Whisper White piece was rounded using a We R Memory Keepers ½” corner rounder and added to a panel of Soft Sky cardstock, which also had a rounded corner. The whole piece was added to Thick Whisper White card base, yes I also rounded the top right corner and to finished I added a Basic Rhinestone to each of the little girl’s hair bows. Such a charming card.

For the second card I stamped the gingerbread people in Early Espresso onto Whisper White cardstock and punched them out with the Cookie Cutter Builder Punch. I stamped the large splatter stamp from the Gorgeous Grunge stamp set in Pool Party ink onto a panel of Whisper White, I think it looks a little like a map….. and added the gingerbread people either side. I mounted the piece onto a panel of Pool Party cardstock and added it using Tombow to a Thick Whisper White card base. I rounded the upper right and lower left corners of all the pieces using the Project Life Corner Rounder. As a final touch I added a Red Glimmer paper bow and buttons for the bit of sparkle. The sentiment comes from the retired set Festival of Trees and was stamped in Pool Party ink. Love it

Thank you so much for visiting my blog, hope you like the projects. See you again soon.

In this years’ Autumn – Winter Catalogue there is a great kit called the Stitched With Cheer Project Kit containing 18 cards to make each including an element of hand stitching which is so fashionable this year. In addition to the kit there is an accompanying stamp set.

Today, I decided to have a play with this set, also called Stitched With Cheer. It contains lots of lovely seasonal sentiments and many small images including snowflakes, stars, trees and holly leaves.

I used Crumb Cake cardstock for all 3 card bases and stamped onto Very Vanilla cardstock using the 3 snowflake images from the set. I used Crumb Cake, Delightful Dijon (1st and 2nd generation) and Chocolate Chip ink to stamp the images.

In the 1st card I layered the Very Vanilla stamped piece onto a panel of Delightful Dijon cardstock before adhering it to the card base using Tombow Glue. The sentiment was die cut using the Bunch of Banners framelits and added with dimensionals and added some of the Gold Metallic Enamel Shapes.

I added a panel of retired Bohemian dsp to the Crumb Cake card base with Tombow. The stamped panel of Very Vanilla was added with dimensionals and after wrapping some of the gold metallic thread from the Bakers Twine Trio Pack around and tying it into a small bow with long tails.

To the 3rd card base I added a strip of Gold Glimmer card and a piece of Chocolate Chip cardstock to the left hand side. The Very Vanilla stamped panel was added with Tombow after adding a wrap of the gold bakers twine.

I am really happy with these cards and can’t wait to try the 3 small tree stamps.
