In yesterday's blog post I showed you the Big Shot Perfect Setting BigZ XL die and it's traditional uses as a cupcake or favor wrapper and a napkin ring. I always try to encourage everyone (including myself to think outside of the box). My following two samples I hope have done just that, let me know what you think.
Do you see the cupcake wrapper? It is the Very Vanilla piece that is arched on the card. I used SNAIL adhesive to attach then stamp images on the card using the Lovely As a Tree Stamp set in Always Artichoke Classic Ink and Old Olive Classic Ink from Stampin' Up!.
The napkin ring is left flat and used to add a backdrop to the grosgrain ribbon. Love this look, add a touch of elegance behind the ribbon. The very vanilla would be nice sponged too with Old Olive or Cherry Cobbler. The large square scallop was created by gluing 4 of our scallop square paper punched images together. Add a bit of Silver Tinsel Trim (Holiday Mini Catalog) to add some sparkle to the card.
Many of my Christmas cards this year have used Cherry Cobbler, Very Vanilla, and Old Olive color combination. Truly one of my favorites this holiday season.
There is still time to order Stampin' Up! products and have them in time for the holidays. They make such wonderful gifts. Card making and scrapbooking are wonderful family activities ... share your passion of these with your family and friends.
