Christmas Ornaments Card

Hey there! It’s Judy here with a Christmas Ornaments Card project created for CutCardStock

Christmas cards are definitely favorites of mine to make. And, I love the way this one came out and just had to share! 



Materials

I am using a variety of card stocks Also, a 3D embossing folder, several ornament, pine and berry dies, ribbon, adhesive and foam tape.

Cougar NATURAL 80 lb. cardstock  Stardream Metallic OPAL (cream) 105 lb Card Stock  Gold Bright FOIL 10 pt Cardstock   DCS Red GLITTER Heavyweight 12×12 Discount Card Stock DCS Green GLITTER Heavyweight 12×12 Discount Card Stock  Pop Tone WILD CHERRY 8.5×11 Discount Card Stock Pop Tone GUM DROP GREEN 8.5×11 Discount Card Stock  Lessebo Colors HUNTER GREEN 83lb Cardstock 

Card Base

My card base measures 5 x 6 1/2 inches and is the Cougar NATURAL 80 lb. cardstock . Cut a piece of the Gold Bright FOIL 10 pt Cardstock to the same size, 5 x 6 1/2 inches and a piece of Stardream Metallic OPAL (cream) 105 lb Card Stock.




Next, emboss the Opal card stock and cut a piece of DCS Red GLITTER Heavyweight 12×12 Discount Card Stock.



Mat the opal card stock with the red glitter and the gold foil.




 Cover the front of the card.



Die Cuts

I die cut a variety of pine boughs out of the green card stocks and some berry sprays out of the wild cherry card stock. 




Die cut using the gold foil and red glitter card stock.



Layer the ornament die cuts to make 3.




Add the pine sprays in layers.






Cut the berry sprays into pieces and add.


It’s time to add the ornament die cuts. 


I cut some 1/8 inch wide ribbon for bows and lengths to “hang” the ornaments.


Adhere the bows to the ornaments. Die cut a sentiment.



Adhere the ornaments to the card front with foam tape. Add the ribbon behind the ornaments and up to the top pf the card through the pine boughs. The sentiment is the last piece to add.



Thanks for taking a look at my Christmas Ornaments Card project!

Quick Phone Stand Project

Hi there! I'm sharing a quick and easy phone stand project for Clear Scraps.


I am using the Vintage Acrylic Phone Stand. This stand comes with 2 acrylic pieces that interlock with each other. It measures approximately 4 x 8 inches when assembled and fits most cell phones.


 



This phone stand can be decorated in a variety of ways including paint, paper and inks. I decided to use paper for this project.


I chose 2 coordinating patterned papers, a stripe and a floral.


The larger piece was traced onto the back of the striped paper.


I cut around the tracing.


To adhere the paper to the acrylic I used an adhesive sheet. I placed the patterned paper backside down on the adhesive and trimmed.


I pulled the protective film off of both sides of the acrylic piece.


The striped paper was adhered to the front.



The coordinating floral paper was cut down to add over the striped paper. I also am using a cut apart and 2 border pieces.


I fussy cut the flowers on the cut apart.


The floral piece was adhered.


The fussy cut flowers were glued to the top and borders added.



The smaller acrylic piece is inserted into the slot on the larger piece after removing the protective film.



I added a bow to finish.






All done! Quick and easy!


Thanks for checking out my project!
