Hello! While visiting my blog archive for my post on cardmaking with the hot beverage theme, I decided to do a mash-up of two of the cards shown HERE and HERE. I eagerly delved into my supplies, reigniting my passion for crafting with these products.
To create the card, I used a number of now retired supplies. I’m calling this a “Shop Your Stash” post! I know there are a lot of shiny new products out there that I could easily buy. It is more of a challenge to use what I already own. The retired supplies are listed at the bottom. I have emboldened supplies that are currently available and included them in the LinkDeli list.
-
- Dry emboss a white cardstock square (4 1/2″) with a folder for subtle texture. (Note: I used the now-retired SU Subtle Dynamic Textured Impressions folder. The shim required is the base platform, the folder with the cardstock inside, and one cutting plate.) Add to card base.
- Stamp Lawn Fawn Kraft cardstock with the Hero Arts Candy Stripe Bold Prints background stamp in red pigment ink. Once dry, cut with the Lil’ Inker 4 1/4″ stitched square. Add to card base.
- Cut a 3″ circle from Waterfall cardstock and add white embossing paste through the Snowy Sky stencil. Set aside to dry.
- Stamp Hero Arts Winter Wishes sentiment in black on white cardstock. Cut with the 3″ circle die and again with a die in the MFT Snow Drifts set. (I bought this set of hills in November 2012; the set was one of my first ever die purchases.) Add sentiment hill to the stenciled circle and add assembly to the card.
- Cut mittens with dies in the My Favorite Things Warm & Fuzzy set from red cardstock and dry-emboss with the Taylored Expressions Cable Knit embossing folder. Cut to-go coffee cup with dies in the Mini Café All Day set. Assemble and accessorize with a snowflake cut with a Mini Snowflakes die from white glitter foam. Add cup and mittens to card.
