Stampin' Up!® Curvy Celebrations

 


NEW!  Curvy stamp sets and coordinating dies!




I'm just loving these new products from Stampin' Up!   I have had such fun making cards using the stamps and dies.  I shared a couple of cards on an earlier post.   Today I have 2 more cards to show you, one with an autumn feel, the other, a Christmas one.  You can use the item numbers given at the end of the blog, for the new products starting Nov. 3.  

Gilded Curvy Autumn


The Gilded Autumn Specialty Designer Series Paper (item 153520), is available now, in the 2020 August-December Mini Catalog.  This pack has some gorgeous papers!  I hope you can see the gold accents on the pumpkins in the background paper on this card.  The metallic ribbon embellishment, which comes in a combo pack (153553), is also currently available in the Mini.  It goes perfectly with this design.  


Card Base:  Cajun Craze card stock, 8 1/2" x 5 1/2" folded at 4 1/4"

Layer of  Petal Pink card stock, 5 1/4" x 4".  Adhere the Pink to the Cajun base.

Layer of Gilded Autumn Specialty DSP:  5" x 3 3/4".  Onto this I glued the curved pieces. 

The curved pieces are cut from another piece of Cajun CS, and another piece of Petal Pink CS.  These were cut with the Curvy Dies.  Start with 5 1/2" x 2 1/2", cut the curves, then trim to fit the DSP layer (final width will be 5", and height approx. 2".)  Stamp the sentiment from Quite Curvy stamp set in Cajun onto the Pink.  Adhere the two curved pieces together and then adhere to the Gilded Autumn DSP.   Wrap a length of the metallic ribbon, approx. 6",  around the base of the Pink, glued to the back of the DSP.   Cut another piece of the ribbon, make a bow, adhere with a glue dot onto of the ribbon.

Now adhere it all to the card base, and it's done. 

 Inside I put a piece of Petal Pink 4 1/2" x 3 1/2" and left it blank to write a note.  You could add a sentiment of your choice.

Now let's look at the Coming Home Christmas card.

Stamp sets:

  • Curvy Christmas 
  • Coming Home (153500) (available now, in the Aug-Dec. Mini Catalog)

Dies:

  • Curvy Dies
  • Home Together Dies (153515).  ( Bundle (155144) Coming home stamps + Home together dies to save 10%)

Paper:  The Classic Christmas 6" x 6" DSP from the Curvy Celebrations promotion; Whisper White card stock for the card base (11" x 4 1/4" folded at 5 1/2");  Shaded Spruce card stock 4 1/4" x 1 1/2",Whisper White for the curves and for stamping the Coming Home elements (house, car, wreath, tree).

Glue the strip of Shaded Spruce CS to the top of the white card base.

Cut pieces of the Classic Christmas DSP in the Shaded Spruce shade using the Curvy Dies.  Overlap and layer these cut pieces onto the card base and glue in place, leaving some of the blank shaded spruce showing.  Cut the white curved pieces from CS (approx. 5" x 2") and trim to fit on top of the green curved pieces ; stamp the sentiment in Shaded Spruce; adhere the white curved pieces to card front.  I added a Shaded Spruce Holiday Rhinestone jewel (150457) next to the sentiment.

On pieces of white cardstock, stamp in Basic Gray ink the House, Wreath, Car, Tree images and die cut with the coordinating Home Together Dies.   Color with Stampin' Blends (Cherry Cobbler, Granny Apple Green, Crumb Cake, Pineapple Punch).  Glue the wreath to the house; glue the house to the card front.  Use Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere the car, with the tree on its roof, to the card front.  

Inside I glued a strip of the DSP at the bottom and stamped Merry Christmas in Shaded Spruce ink.
