Mojo Monday #109--Christmas Good Cheer Card

I’ve been spending some time this week organizing all of my SU! supplies. I came across an envelope that contained the stamped images I had received in a PALS stamp swamp when the new catty came out in the beginning of the summer. I remembered that I loved the Good Cheer stamps and so I decided to use the sentiment for this week’s Mojo Monday Challenge.

Here’s the sketch:

 

 

Here’s what I did:

●I created my base out of Chocolate Chip Textured Cardstock measuring 4-1/2” x 6-1/4”.

●I adhered a layer of the “Old Olive and Very Vanilla Swirling Leaves” DSP from the Christmas Jingle Simply Scrappin’ Pack. This layer is a 1/4” smaller than the base.

●The sentiment from the Good Cheer Stamp Set had been stamped in Chocolate Chip on Very Vanilla Cardstock. I created a rectangle of 2-1/4” x 2-1/2” of Real Red Textured Cardstock and adhered my sentiment to it and then layered it onto my card. I love the way it looks on top of the Old Olive Swirling Leaves DSP.

●Following the sketch, I added a border of the “Real Red and Very Vanilla Swirling Leaves” Self-Adhesive Die-Cut also from the Christmas Jingle Simply Scrappin’ pack. Gina’s Tip: I’ve said this so many times before, but one of my most favorite things about SU! Products are the way everything coordinates so beautifully!

●I then took out the “Old Olive and Very Vanilla Scalloped Circle” Self-Adhesive Die-Cut and placed the “Poinsettia” Self-Adhesive Die-Cut Pieces inside the circle.

●For the interior of the card, I layered Real Red Textured Cardstock and Very Vanilla Cardstock onto my base and then I adhered the “Christmas Blessings” Die-Cut, leaving plenty of room for a Christmas note.

I highly recommend the Simply Scrappin’ kits for making fun and easy Christmas cards this year.
