Merry & Bright Trio....

Hello & Happy Thursday Everyone!

Today's my day to take over the blog at:

SumMore Fun Blog - (Victorine Originals)

YAY for me... 🙌

I thought I would show you a Set of
Christmas cards I created - I was inspired by
a video I watched of Jennifer McGuires -

Some of you know I've made this style of card before - Usually I make
it with a shape type of card - it's a card with a FLAT Back -
It's not your "Normal" Top folding type of card --

I cut my white Cardstock out 3x's (since I was making 3 cards)
The size is 3 1/4" w x 10" H (scored @ 5") so it can fold
My Kraft Cardbase is a 4 1/4 x 5 1/2 piece
then my Red Designer Paper is 4 x 5 1/4

The stamped images are a trio 
called Cactus Pine and Palm Christmas
which is a Victorine Original Stamp set

The Merry & Bright Sentiment I'm using 
is from Raisin Boat and it's called
Let it Snow (9085-Z)

Both can be found easily in the 
SumMore Fun Online Store

Here's the first one - I'm using Canson Watercolor paper

and my Zig Real brush pens 

to color in all the stamped images -

The designer Papers are ALL Scraps -

Which is what I like most about making these cards

Here's the Fun Cactus card - I did use a small

stitched rectangle die, just to add a little extra

something around the images -- and then I

used a Stitched Scallop border die --

I heat embossed the Sentiment with some

Fine White embossing powder and then

cut them out with a small banner die --

And now the cute Palm Tree! I really think these stamps

are fun & whimsical - perfect to send to some in Texas

or Arizona or Hawaii! You know, those really nice

warm states during the holidays! LOL

This is what the insides look like 

along with how these cards open! They are

top fold opening type cards, but smaller in size

attached to a regular sized card base -

I really Hope I made sense!! 

I stamped all the inside sentiments with another Raisin Boat

stamp set - this one is called Festive Phrases (9310-Z)

and then I just added some border strips to each inside card

so they can match the outside of the cards --
