SVG file - Santa's Sweets,  electronic die cutter,  green cardstock, candy canes, pipe cleaners, felt pom poms, texture paste, palate knife, google eyes, glue gun, Copic Markers for candy cane house trim -  (R20, R22, R24, R27),  flower rhinestone, 

Using Santa's Sweets SVG file, cut the house with an electronic die cutter. The svg file can be found HERE.    The step by step instructions are included and very straight forward.   Use the Camelia Carnation Designer Paper for the trim and panels.   The candy cane embellishments on the corners of the house were cut on white cardstock and the candy cane coloring was applied with Copic alcohol ink markers - (R20, R22, R24, R27).

Apply texture or molding paste to the roof and sides of the house.   Sprinkle with Crystal Clear Glitter while the texture paste is still wet.  Allow to air dry.     

Cut the poinsettias and holly using the Poinsettia and Holly Cluster stamp set.    Sponge the poinsettias with Lipstick Red ColorBox Ink and the Holly with Olive Grove Ink.   The tips of the Stack and Store Daubers are pointed and work well with the small flowers.    Lightly mist the petals and shape with the Poinsettia and Holly Cluster mold.   Additional shaping can be done with the Deluxe Flower Shaping tool, if desired.   Yellow prills were adhered to the centers with Designer Dries Clear Adhesive.  Adhere to the reindeer house.   

The candy cane reindeer were created with pipe stems, google eyes and little red pom poms.  A glue gun works best but be careful of your fingers!  The flower rhinestone was adhered to the front of the door with Dries Clear Adhesive.   

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a safe and wonderful Holiday Season!

Create a top fold 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 inch white card base.

Allow to dry.   Adhere the layers to the card base with double sided tape.

Stamp window frame and candle with Memento Desert Sand Ink.   I used X-Press Blending Cardstock for the candle because I colored it with Copic Markers and designer paper from the Winter's Eve Paper Collection for the window frame.   The window frame was sponged with Vintage Photo Distress Ink.   The light yellow green designer paper was selected to back the window frame.  It was sponged with Vintage Photo.    The Candle was colored with the following color combo - ((Candle -  R81, R85, R89, T2, Flame - E47, E35, Y02, Berries - R30, R35, R39, Leaves - YG11, YG45, G28 G46).   The holly leaves were  accented with a white gel pen.   The images were cut with the coordinating die.

The Blazing Poppy Petals Stamp Set  was stamped on white cardstock with Rhubarb Stalk  Memento Ink.   The flowers were die cut with the coordinating die.   The petals were sponged with Berrylicious Fluid Chalk Ink, misted with water and shaped with the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit,  They were assembled using Designer Dries Clear Adhesive.  Power Outage Prills were applied to the center of each Poppy.    The Classic Leaf stamp set was stamped with Guacamole Fluid Chalk Ink and die cut with coordinating die.   the petals were sponged with Guacamole, Chambray and a small amount  of Berrylicious Fluid Chalk Ink.  The petals were shaped with the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit and allowed to dry.   Clear Crackle Paint was applied to the leaves and dusted with Frosting Powder.  The leaves were heat set.

Die cut the Decorative Medallion from white cardstock.    Place clear cardstock under the window frame.   Pop the frame up from the yellow-green designer paper with Darice foam strips.  Adhere the window to the card  on top of the medallion as shown.  Adhere the leaves and flowers with a glue gun.

Embellish with with various sized dots from a white gel pen to look like snow. Apply more dots in the upper corners with the  white gel pen.

• A christmas red ribbon was tied around the street lamp. The holly and cardinal images, and roses were applied  with a glue gun.  Safety Alert - This can be plugged into a light socket but make certain to not leave it unattended.

Create a 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 inch top folding card using heavy white cardstock.  Cut and adhere pumpkin base layer cut at 5 1/4 x 5 1/4 inches using double sided tape for extra strength.   Select the yellow designer paper from the Festive Holly Paper Collection.  Cut at 5 x 5 inches.  Apply Vintage Photo Distress Ink to the Gemstone Embossing Folder and emboss the designer paper.   Sponge edges with the Vintage Photo Distress Ink.  Apply Clear Crackle Paste to the edges and sides of the designer paper and sprinkle with Frosting Powder.  Heat set until it turns white.  Adhere designer layer to the card.   Die cut the Festive Holiday decorative die  from pumpkin cardstock and adhere it to the upper part of the card as shown.  

Stamp the pomegranate using the HollyBerry Jingle Stamp Set.   I used Olive Grove ink on X-Press It Cardstock.  The image was colored with the following marker combos - Pomegranate -  R00, R11, R20, R22, R24, R56, YG11, YG61 - Leaves -YG99, YG95, YG93, YG91, Berries - R20, R22, R24, R27, R58, opaque white ink - Cinnamon Stick - E00, E11, E13, E15, E19, E08.  Die cut with the coordinating die. Apply Clear crackle Paint and sprinkle with the frosting powder.  Heat set.  Die cut 4 pomegranate images from dark green cardstock from your stash.  Adhere them together with your focal image.   This will allow extra strength to the image.  

Stamp the poinsettia flowers  from the Sparkling Poinsettia stamp set on white and green cardstock with Desert Sand Ink.  I selected this ink so I could have an invisible line and could use it for the two different colored flowers.   I used the largest petal  for my green leaves.  Cut the petals using the Sparkling Poinsettia Die Set.  Sponge with Berrylicious and Guacamole Chalk Ink.  Lightly spritz the petals with a water mini mister and  shape the petals with the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit.  Adhere the layers and apply the Crackle Paint, sprinkle with frosting powder and heat set. 

Apply the focal image with dimensional dots and adhere the poinsettia's with a glue gun to finish your  festive Holiday card.

Cut a top fold card at 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 inches from heavy white cardstock. Cut the base layer from olive green cardstock at 5 1/4 x 5 1/4 inches.  Cut the designer paper from Festive Holly Collection at 5 x 5 inches.   Add some additional snow with the gel pen on the designer paper and sponge edges with Vintage Photo Distress Ink using Stack & Store Daubers.   Add some twine and adhere the layers with double sided tape.   

Stamp the image with the cardinals and the wheel from the Festive Holly Stamp Set onto Copic compatible paper.  I used X-Press It.  The image was colored with the following Copic color combo - (Birds R20, R22, R24, R27, C1, C3, C5, C7 - Berries R20, R22, R24, R59 - Leaves YR13, YG61, YG63, YG67, GY95 - Wheel E30, E33, E35, E37, E47).   Die cut the image with the coordinating die.  Cut 4 additional die cut images from dark brown or black cardstock.   Adhere the layers of the brown die cut on top of another and adhere to the colored image using Dries Clear Adhesive.  This will add strength and some dimension to the focal image.  Pop up the focal image on the left side of the card using dimensional foam dots. 

Stamp the sentiment with Versamark Ink and emboss with white powder. Heat set.  Die cut with a tag tie and add snow using various size dots with a white gel pen.   Pop the tag up using dimensional dots and apply a rhinestone to the bow.  

Apply a generous coat of Clear Crackle Paint the the bottom of the card and to the top of the wheel as shown.   Sprinkle with a generous amount of Frosting Powder and heat set.   This will complete a winter, snowy look to your holiday card.
