Star Bright Christmas

Challenge 5

It’s another gorgeous Christmas card and it’s onlyJuly…woot woot!  You know you want to get started and I’m here to give you a little something to think about.  These stars are so easy and you can cut out a bunch and then use your Score Board to create the star in 3-D.  See how to make it in the video below.

My Star Bright card today is for the Stamp Ink Paper Card Challenge #5 and I’m tellin’ ya, this card has officially started my Christmas in July beginning last week.  LoL…I posted a Christmas card last week and it’s funny now because I just learned to make this star and I’m in love.  You can guess what I’ll be making my local family and friends.  The one’s I mail will be different, but I’ll save that one for later.

MAGGIE MADE TIPS:

  • Hiding Place.  Just in case you were wondering how I adhered the star to the card stock, I stacked five Stampin’ Dimensionals in the middle of the star and played it in the center of the real red card stock.  I used a retired embellishment and placed it on top so that the dimensional can’t be seen.  Pretty nifty right!? LoL
  • How To Make The Star.  You know me, I don’t like to re-create the wheel, so I did all the research for you and found an easy to follow Youtube video that shows you how to make the cool 3-D star.  You can see it here.

346.2 Christmas in July

Did you know Christmas is only six months away!?  I’m silently screaming so loud my head is spinning…”I’m not even readyyy!”  But you can start getting ready with the One Stamp at a Time’s Blog Hop.  Ready, Set, Go!

Christmas in July

To make this extremely clean & simple card I used the White Christmas stamp set and used Real Red, Crumb Cake, and Tip Top Taupe ink.  The photo doesn’t show it well, but I used the Stella Glitter Pen to give it a shiny snow sparkle look.

Christmas in July Purse

These sweet little purses are the hit of the town and I’m definitely making these for all the little girls in my life.  To make the handles, without poking holes into the paper, I braided three 10″ pieces and simply used our new Tear & Tape adhesive and it passed my test!  It held together just perfect!

MAGGIE MADE TIPS:

  • Braided Ribbon.  To make the handles on the purse I cut three 10 inch pieces of Wild Wasabi Seam Binding ribbon.  It helps to have the handles a little thicker so they stand up to the weight of whatever you put inside.
  • Cleaning Your Photopolymer.  Don’t you hate it when you clean your photopolymer with baby wipes or the Stampin’ Scrub just have a dark ugly pink tint left behind!?  Through research and another crafty friend (Nicole Picador) I found the BEST way to clean my photopolymer sets that removes at least 80% of the pink tint left behind by other cleaners.  See it here.
