Stampin' Up! Toile Christmas Card

Well, I didn't make Christmas in July so we'll have Christmas in August with the Toile Christmas Stamp Set. I must say I am enamored with this card and I thank Ann Schach, Karen Ilsley, Mary Deatherage and Amy Koenders for inspiring me. They each did that in different ways.

My card base is Whisper White Thick Card Stock with a mat of Balmy Blue and a mat of Feels Like Frost DSP (available 8/4/20 returning from last year).

The banner is Balmy Blue Card Stock and Whisper White, which was embossed with the Greenery EF. I punched the ends with the Banner Triple Punch. The rectangle is Balmy Blue Card Stock with Balmy Glue Glimmer Paper (available 8/4/20).

The Mistletoe Sprig is stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and the leaves are colored with Light Shaded Spruce Blends and die cut with a die from Christmas Cardinals Dies.

The sentiment is stamped in Just Jade ink and cut with the 2 1/8" square from Stitched Shapes Dies but I turned it into a rectangle.

I used liquid glue to adhere everything with the exception of the sentiment and outer parts of the sprig. The Blue Adhesive-Backed Gems are just that! But they won't be available until 8/4/20 when the new mini catalog is released to customers.

The inside is clean and simple using the Itty Bitty Christmas Stamp Set ...

Today I'm entering my card in these challenges:

Craftyhazelnut's Christmas Challenge #501

Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper August 2020

Creative Knockouts: #361 Tic Tac Toe and, again, I went straight down the middle...dry embossing, image and sentiment.

Thanks for taking the time to stop by on the last day of the weekend (at least it is here!).
