Saint Nicholas

Today’s projects feature the Stampin’ Up! Saint Nicholas bundle and Designer Series Paper (DSP). This first card is a slimline card (measurements: 3.5″ x 8.5″). The card base is made from Cherry Cobbler cardstock. I wanted a nice and cozy feel to the card so I used the Cherry Cobbler print of the inside of a house DSP. The DSP measurements are 3.25″ x 8.25″. I just love the little fireplace and I could not help but to create some stockings to hang over it using the Saint Nicholas bundle dies. I also used the Saint Nicholas dies to die cut Saint Nicholas from the Designer Series Paper. To create a little collage area on the card, I used the Deckled Circle dies, Tailor Made Tag dies, the Black and Very Vanilla Large Check Ribbon, and the May the Christmas season fill your home sentiment stamp from the Saint Nicholas stamp set. The tag is made with Crumb Cake cardstock and the sentiment was stamped in Early Espresso ink.

This A2 card (measurements: 4.25″ x 5.5″) highlights three different sheets of the Saint Nicholas Designer Series Paper (DSP). The card base is Mossy Meadow cardstock, the next layer on the card (measurements: 4″ x 5.25″) is Wild Wheat, and then I used two different DSP patterns (one Mossy Meadow print (measurements 3.75″ x 3.5″) and the other one is a Cajun Craze print (measurements: 3.75″ x 1.5″). The Wild Wheat strip of cardstock that is over the DSP is 1″ x 4″). The measurements of the Wild Wheat mat behind Saint Nicholas is 2.5″ x 4.5″ and the white cardstock is 2.25″ x 4.25″. The Saint Nicholas image was fussy cut from the DSP. Lastly, the Merry Christmas sentiment that I used is a part of the Stampin’ Up! Rocking Horse stamp set. I used Cajun Craze ink to stamp the sentiment and then fussy cut it out.
