Today's card features a few of the products in the Toile Tidings Suite. I used the Toile Christmas Bundle, the Tiding All Around Bundle, and the Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper. I was happily surprised how fast and easy it was to color in that beautiful cardinal.
Dimensions:
- Garden Green: 8-1/2" x 5-1/2" (card base)
- Red Red: 3-7/8" x 3-7/8" (wreath mat) & 3-1/4" x 1-1/4" (banner)
- Very Vanilla: (2) 3-3/4" x 3-3/4" (wreath & cardinal)
- Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper (DSP): 2" x 5-1/2"
Instructions:
- Fold the Garden Green piece in half (fold on the left) to form card base. Attach the DSP piece along the center of the card front.
- Stamp the wreath stamp from the Tidings All Around Stamp Set onto one of the Very Vanilla squares using the Garden Green Classic Stampin' Pad. Stamp the berries stamp randomly around the wreath using the Real Red Classic Stampin' Pad. Attach the piece to the center of the Real Red square, and then attach it to the center of the card front.
- Stamp the cardinal stamp from the Toile Christmas Stamp Set onto other Very Vanilla squares using the Tuxedo Black Memento Pad. Color the areas of the cardinal's feathers that should be darker with the Dark Real Red Stampin' Blend Marker. Color all of the cardinal's feathers with the Light Real Red Stampin' Blends Marker, going over the dark Real Red part to blend the shades. Color the beak with the Dark Daffodil Delight Stamin' Blend. Die-cut the cardinal out with the cardinal die in the Christmas Cardinal Dies. Attach it to the center of the wreath layer.
- Stamp the "Christmas Wishes" stamp from the Toile Christmas Stamp Set onto the smaller Real Red piece using the Memento Pad. Die-cut it out with its coordinating die, and attach it to the card with Black Stampin' Dimensionals.
Use SNAIL Adhesive when attaching, unless stated otherwise.
