Holly Jolly Scalloped Christmas Tree Card | Honey Bee Stamps


Hello Friends!

Have you all put up your Christmas Tree yet? I just did yesterday! Love how festive my house looks now with all the twinkly lights 😍 Let the festivities of the season begin!

For today's card, I am sharing a Pink Christmas Tree. Not sure if they still are a popular thing but I wanted to use a softer pallet for this card.

To create this card I began by cutting the pink cardstock in 2cm strips. I then stamped out the scalloped edged from the Background Builder set and heat embossed the stamped line using a clear sparkly embossing powder. I then diecut each piece using the Background Builder Scalloped Edge Die. Next, I glued each strip to a scrap piece of cardstock that I had die cut using the large triangle from the Stacking Pennants dies. Once the pieces were all glued in place, I die cut the tree out using the same triangle die. To decorate the tree I used the Blizzard Confetti, gluing the cupped side down to make the confetti look more like Christmas Ball ornaments.

To top off the tree top, I die cut the two smallest stars from the Stacking Stars dies using a gold glitter foil cardstock and added a Rainbow Rhinestone to the center.

The tree trunk was made by stacking the Banner builder die-cuts from largest to smallest and gluing them together.

To create the background, I used a stamp from the Background Builder Set stamping it vertically first and then horizontally just along the bottom and used a gold embossing powder to heat set them. I then ran finished background through the die cut machine using the A2 Deckle Edge Frame and then glued that to a gold glitter piece of cardstock I had adhered to the card base. 

To finish off the card I stamped out the sentiments from the Fa La La set onto a thin banner strip and then placed them along the tree tucking the edges underneath it. I then stamped, heat embossed and die cut the snowflakes from the Jingle All the Way set and popped them on to the card front. 

And that my friends finishes off the Holly Jolly Scalloped Christmas Tree Card... hopefully, it inspired you. Wishing all a great day whereever you are and hope you have a wonderful weekend!

A Cup of Poinsettia Wishes Christmas Card | Studio Katia

Hey Everyone!

Today I have a Christmas card to share with you, done in a non-traditional Christmas color palette. I wanted to use the Poinsettia Trimmings Stamp set but wanted to have fun with coloring them in other than red. I am also participating in Kathy Raccosin's 30 Day Coloring Challenge and used this as an opportunity to learn from my coloring. I'm sure this would card would have turned out beautifully as well done in a red and green Christmas palette, but this way you can see all how fun the poinsettias look done in a variety of colors.

To make this card I began by stamping out the teacup from the Cup of Thanks set and masking off the top. I then removed the mask and did some partial stamping of the Poinsettia Trimmings stamp, by only inking the areas I wanted to stamp out and wiping off ink of any adjacent flowers before stamping out the image. Next, I used Copic Markers to color in the cup of poinsettias and then used the cup of thanks coordinating die to do a partial die cut of the cup. I then fussy cut the poinsettia area and the space in between the cup handle that I had drawn in to connect the lines that were missing. I then finished off the images by adding some silver detailing on the rim of the cup with a silver gelly roller pen and then added some silver crystals to the saucer. To the center of the poinsettias and berries, I added glossy accents. 

The background was made using the Halftone Dots Cover Die and gluing that piece onto Silver Glitter cardstock. 

The Silver embossed sentiment strips come from both the Cup of Thanks and the Holiday Village Stamp sets.

To complete the card, I adhered all the elements onto the card base using foam tape. 

I hope you enjoyed this creation.  For more inspiration using these products visit the Studio Katia Blog.
