Festive Friday #0098 - Christmas Jumper Day

Festive Friday #0098 - Christmas Jumper Day

• Friday, 26 November 2021

It's time for another Festive Friday Challenge!  Every second Friday we post a challenge for you with a specific theme and an Inspo List of 10 items to choose from to create your project.  We encourage you to create a project based on the theme and Inspo List and then post it using at least 3 items from the inspiration list.

This week’s challenge FF #0098 - Christmas Jumper Day (aka Christmas Sweater Day)

My Grandmother always called our sweaters "jumpers" - she was from England and it was hard to change her so when I saw the theme for our Challenge this week it made me smile as I remembered my "Nana".  Also make me chuckle to think of some of the ugly sweaters that I've worn over the years for Christmas events.  Thankfully there aren't any pictures :)

Your goal is to simply use three or more items from the inspiration list on your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge  At Festive Friday, you do not need to actually celebrate the occasion. I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D project and join us. You don’t need a blog to enter Festive Friday. Check out this link on how you can play along with this challenge. If you want help entering, please email me at stampinwithmelva@gmail.com and I’d be happy to help you! 

For my card today I used the Painted Christmas Suite to create a pretty card in red, green, and gold and of course some ribbon.

Instructions

1. Cut Pear Pizazz card stock 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" and score at 4 1/4". Fold on score line to form card base
2. Cut Basic White card stock and emboss using the Timber embossing folder
3. Adhere to card base.
4. Cut Pear Pizazz card stock 2 3/4" x 4" and adhere to card base on an angle
5. Cut Designer Series Paper 2 3/4" x 4" and adhere to card base on the opposite angle.
6. Stamp sentiment on Basic White card stock using Real Red ink and cut out using Label Die
7. Adhere to card base
8. Cut 4" of ribbon and adhere across card
9. Cut out 1 7/8" circle using Die from Real Red card stock
10. Adhere to card base using Dimensionals
11. Stamp holly leaves using Evening Evergreen ink and berries using Real Red ink on Basic White card stock
12. Cut out using Dies
13. Adhere to circle using Dimensionals.
14. Adhere Gilded Gems

All of the supplies to make this card are available in my Online Store.
