Today, I’m sharing some Holiday Spirit with Lots of Cheer stamp set. Also, this set can be found in the Annual Catalog and my online store. Too, at only $20, it’s a bargain for 7 cling holiday stamps. And, you can see another card made with this stamp set on my site.

Recipe–

To begin, I made a card base with 8 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches of Mossy Meadow cardstock, scored at 4 1/4 inches. Then, I adhered a 4 x 5 1/4 inches layer of Rich Razzleberry cardstock to the base with SNAIL adhesive. Next, I adhered a 4 1/4 x 3 3/4 inches layer of Come Sail Away Designer Series Paper (Mossy Meadow Stripe) to the lower card with SNAIL adhesive.

Second, I embossed a 2 x 3 inches piece of Very Vanilla cardstock with the Hammered Metal 3 D Embossing Folder. Then, I cut the layer of Very Vanilla cardstock into two pieces of 3 x 3/4 inches. Next, I adhered the layers to the upper right corner of the card using SNAIL adhesive.

Third, I stamped the wreath image, from the Lots of Cheer stamp set, two times with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink onto a layer of Very Vanilla cardstock. Getting into the Holiday Spirit with Lots of Cheer stamp set, I colored the wreath with Stampin’ Blends-Rich Razzleberry and Mossy Meadows Combos. Next, I cut the wreath and two bow images out with Paper Snips scissors. Then, I adhered the wreath and two bow images to the card using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Fourth, I stamped a sentiment of Holiday Spirit with Lots of Cheer stamp set, Mossy Meadow ink and Very Vanilla cardstock. Then, I used the Layering Ovals Dies and cut a 7 /8 X 1 3/4 inches shape around the sentiment. Next, I cut an oval mat of 1 x 2 inches Mossy Meadow cardstock and adhered to the sentiment layer using SNAIL adhesive. Afterwards, I adhered the layered sentiment to the card with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Fifth, using the Rich Razzleberry Stampin’ Blends Combos, I colored three Basic Pearl Jewels and applied randomly to the card front. Then, I used the Wink of Stella pen and added highlights to the wreath.

Finally, I stamped a wreath image with Mossy Meadow ink onto 4 x 5 1/4 inches piece of Very Vanilla cardstock. Then, I stamped a sentiment of Holiday Spirit with Lots of Cheer stamp set and over the wreath with Tuxedo Memento Black Ink. To conclude, I adhered this layer to the inside of the card with SNAIL adhesive.
