Calm Christmas – A Stamping Journey

Next Friday is my Christmas Candle Class. I would love you to join us if you are local. These would make great gifts for someone for Christmas or to display yourself because they are so special and you are so clever!

We will make a large stamped candle and an Easel Card Candle. The Easel card was inspired by a lovely one by Carolyn Lindenmayer here. Thanks for sharing this Carolyn 🙂

WHEN: Friday 20th Sept. at 10am and 7.30pm

COST: $20

RSVP: Please reply by Wednesday 18th so I can have candles available.

Would you love to make the candles but can’t make these times. Why not make another time for you and your friends (Minimum 3 people). Drop me a message or email me about a time.

This is a card we made at a workshop last week using Calm Christmas. When I first saw it I thought it would look great embossed.

I CASED this from a card from Splitcoaststampers. The paper is from the Winter Frost DSP Paper Stack. This pad of papers is such great value at $11.95 for 48 sheets. The size is just right to use on a card front or you have a lot to play with to add strips to the card like I have here. You get 24 sheets of 2 double-sided designs. I love the colours used in this pad. So I think I will be making a lot of cards using this colour pallette for Christmas this year!

Anyway, back to the card. The dove was silver embossed which gives it such a nice shine. I added a strip of Island Indigo card that was punched with the Ribbon Border Punch and layered over some silver ribbon. The greeting from this set is silver embossed too. This was punched out with the Scallop Circle Punch and layered over an oval punched from Island Indigo. I added a silver bow to the top of the greeting.

I have some more cards to come with this set so stay tuned.

Thanks for visiting me today. I hope you have a happy week. 🙂
