SNSS Christmas in July


Good morning!

This morning I'm joining with the designers from Sweet'n Sassy Stamps in celebrating their Christmas in July new release!  Korin has designed three new Christmas stamp sets celebrating the birth of our Savior.  I have one card to share with each new stamp set this morning.  For all the specifics of each new stamp set, please check out the SNSS blog.

First up is the lovely Christmas Morn stamp set.  
I adore the silhouette tree image in this set quite a bit.  After I stamped the tree and the sentiment, I used an impression plate for more interest - love that look, especially when it's enhanced a bit with soft ink.

Card Details
Stamps: Christmas Morn (SNSS)    
Ink: Stampin Up; Versafine; Colorbox Chalk   
Card stock: PaperTrey Ink linen; Linen white 
Other: Sewing machine; PTI impression plate; Ribbons from SU; Wild Orchid flowers; Corner rounder; Doily


My second card uses the tree from Christmas Morn as well as the Christmas Innies stamp set.  This time I went quite CAS, choosing only to embellish the tag with some white ink and fun ribbon treatment.  I love this stamp set because of all beautiful sentiments included - perfect for the inside of your card or the outside!

Card Details
Stamps: Christmas Morn; Christmas Innies (SNSS)
Ink: SU; PTI white; SU; Colorbox chalk
Card stock: PaperTrey Ink solid & patterned
Other: Lawn Fawn tag; Seam binding ribbon; corner rounder; SU ribbon; doily
  

And, last but not least the new Jesus is Born stamp set.  This set is chock full of lovely sentiments that all celebrate the birth of Jesus - such a great set for those of us who make Christmas cards.  I choose to pair one of the sentiments with the sweet little lamb from Prim Blessings stamp set - remembering the shepherds who first received the glorious news of the birth of the Messiah.
