Peace & Joy

I occasionally shy away from the Specialty cardstock as it generally only contains a few sheets. The one I am using today is not one I could pass up. The Regal Distress DSP is an “Oh My”.

Papers

These pretty papers are the stars of this card. I saw this angle cut on Pinterest and new it was a win to get the most cards from these papers. The Regal Distress Specialty Designer Series Paper is a great name for these sheets. They look very Regal to me. And to extend their numbers for layers, I found a way to use half on each card.

Each piece is cut to 3 3/4 X 5. By making a tick mark on the back side of each (the back is plain white) at 3 1/2, turning 180 degrees and again at 3 1/2 on the other side. I then cut from mark to mark. It leaves this simple angle. And the papers cut in this fashion will make two cards. The card base is Shaded Spruce to match the tree color in the focal layer.

Stamp

This sweet stamp is from the Festive Words stamp set. It is located towards the back of the Mini Catalog. There are no matching Dies so it is just the stamp set. There are four stamps in the set. This tree, a stocking, a bell, and a top hat. Each stamp has a simple word(s) on the image. They are perfect for quick cards.

The images is colored using Stampin’ Write Markers. These are perfect to color Red Rubber stamps. I used Shaded Spruce for the tree, Real Red for the sentiment, Early Espresso for the trunk, and Crushed Curry for the star. Stampin’ Write Markers are only available in a color family. Sadly these are unavailable right now. But…the colors I used, with the exception of the Early Espresso are all from the Regals family.

Finishes

There are only two additions to this card I have not mentioned. The first is the Cherry Cobbler & Gold Satin Ribbon. I placed this at an angle across the joining line of the two papers. And the second is a simple Iridescent Pearl added to the star of the tree. I did at the last minute round two opposite corners with a retired corner rounder to help the layer stand out a bit.

Thank you for visiting today. I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
