Joyful Wishes Greeting Card (11/5/2022 Sassy Stampers Stamp Camp)

It's beginning to feel a lot like winter in the Denver area!  Snow this past week and continuing cold temperatures always put me in the mood to stay in where it's warm and make winter-themed cards.  So this is the card we made at my table at Sassy Stampers Stamp Camp yesterday.  (I love the rich winter colors, but sometimes I like to get away from them and make something more whimsical.)

Front

• Adhere Highlands Heather card stock to card front.

• Die cut scalloped label from Fresh Freesia card stock.  Use black ink to stamp Joyful Wishes on small rectangle of white card stock and adhere to scalloped label.

• Use black ink to stamp penguin on scrap of white card stock; punch out with penguin punch and glue onto label.  Punch feet from black card stock and apply to penguin with Black Mini Stampin' Dimensionals.  Make small bow with silver trim and attach to penguin with glue dot.  Adhere penguin to label with glue dots or liquid glue.  

• Use foam tape or Stampin' Dimensionals to adhere label to card front over vellum.

• Apply self-adhesive stars randomly.

Inside

• Adhere Highland Heather card stock to inside of card.

• Stamp sentiment on 5" x 3-3/4" white card stock and adhere over Highlands Heather.

• Apply self-adhesive star.

Alternate design using same pack of vellum.

I hope you enjoy this card as much as I enjoyed designing it!
