Christmas Bauble cards made for the Christmas Stampathon using the Sparkling Snowflakes and Snowy Wonder stamp sets from Stampin' Up!

Christmas Bauble card – Christmas Stampathon

Today I am sharing the cards designed for the August Christmas Stampathon. Each month we are given a theme and asked to produce 4 or 5 identical cards to add to our stash in preparation for Christmas. This month’s theme is the letter B. I have decided the B is for bauble and have used the Sparkling Snowflakes and Snowy Wonder stamp sets to make my cards.

Colours used in these cards are:

 

 

To recreate the Christmas bauble cards, you will need:

Card bases – 8¼” by 5⅞” – scored at 4⅛” – I used 2 Highland Heather and 2 Pretty Peacock
Card layers – 4⅜” by 2⅞” – I used 2 Highland Heather and 2 Pretty Peacock
Basic White card – 4¼” by 2¾” – x 4
Basic White card – 5 ½” by 3 ¾” x 4 – for the inside
Pretty Peacock card – 1⅞” by ⅜” x 4
Scrap Basic White and Silver Foil

 

I used the medium snowflake from the Sparkling Snowflake stamp set, I stamped in the Upper left and lower right corners of the 4 card basis in the co-ordinating colour.
