Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder

Last Week’s Card & Cuppa – Christmas Punch Art Robin

~ Karen Young

Last week’s Card & Cuppa project was this cute Christmas punch art robin on a tag.

It uses traditional Christmas colours of Real Red and Old Olive with Very Vanilla. Along with Pecan Pie and Daffodil Delight for the robin body and beak.

The background is embossed using the Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder.

Next, the tag is created by cutting the edges off two rectangles using the Very Best Trio Punch.

Using the Christmas Classics Stamp Set (on the Last Chance Products List), the spruce branches are added to the Very Vanilla layer. The pieces are then layered together and a ribbon slot is created using the punch too.

A sentiment, using the stamp set from the Christmas Everywhere Kit sits on a layered oval cut using the Double Oval Punch.

For the robin, the various pieces are cut out using the Songbird Builder Punch and stuck together. The eye is drawn on using a Basic Black Stampin’ Write Marker.

Both the robin and sentiment are stuck to the tag and a length of Real Red Ribbon from the Ribbon Combo Pack is looped through the ribbon slot.

Dimensionals are used to attach the tag.

Finally, some gold Festive Pearls add an extra touch of Christmas bling.

Countdown to Christmas – Week 9

~ Karen Young

For week 9 of my Countdown to Christmas 2023 series, I’m sharing November’s Christmas Card Club project.

For November’s project, I chose to make this present card using traditional colours of Real Red and Very Vanilla, with Shaded Spruce stamping.

The background is embossed using the Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder.

Next, the parcel is made by adding two lengths of Gold & Vanilla Satin Edged Ribbon.

Sentiment layers are created using the Deckled Circles Dies and the Christmas Classics Stamp Set.

Loose Holly Gems & Sequins are then added to the sentiment. These were on the Last Chance Products list but have sold out and are now no longer available.

Finally, the sentiment layer was added to the parcel.

Christmas Card Club is where those who have signed up make 2 of a pre-designed card using the class kit and instruction from a YouTube video tutorial. The projects are made in their own time with a new video released on the 25th of each month (July-November).

Countdown to Christmas 2022 – Week 3

~ Karen Young

For this week’s Countdown to Christmas 2022 project, it’s a quick and simple card with no stamping.

It uses an Embossing Folder, Dies and a Punch, plus some Ribbon.

As it is a reindeer, I chose Crumb Cake, Soft Suede and Real Red to go with Basic White.

The background is from the Merry Melody 3D Embossing Folder. I’m not sure what tune it is, but we’ll pretend it’s a Christmas carol!

Circles are then cut using the Layering Circles Dies and stuck together.

For Rudolph, the pieces are cut using the Reindeer Builder Punch, assembled and stuck to the circles.

This sits on Dimensionals over the top of a length of Gold Shimmer Ribbon

Finally, a Red Rhinestone is added to create the shiny nose.
