Good Friday morning! We had a team meeting recently and the Sentimental Wishes bundle was used for three presentations. This card is elegant and stunning.

First of all, I love the Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder from the Sep-Dec 2024 Mini Catalog. It adds wonderful texture to this card. The Stitched Shapes Dies (circles) feel as though I’m looking through a special window – and I love the Shaded Spruce Satin and Sheer Ribbon bow! Let’s create this together.

• Cut a Thick Basic White card base 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, score at 4 1/4 and set aside.
• Cut a Basic White panel 4 1/4 x 5 1/2, place the largest Stitched Shape circle die in the center and die cut. Take this same piece and run it through the Forever Plaid 3D embossing folder. Hint: Because this is a linear folder, I tend to use the black line as my guide for making sure the lines are straight and square using this folder.
• Cut a Cherry Cobbler panel 4 x 5 1/4 and with the next to largest circle in the Stitched Shapes Dies, center the die and die cut. Layer this panel to the back side of the embossed panel with adhesive of choice. Add to the Thick Basic White card front with dimensionals.
• On Basic White scraps, stamp the candle image and two holly images from Sentimental Wishes stamp set in Memento ink. Color with Stampin’ Blends: flame- Lemon Lolly and Light Pumpkin Pie; holly leaves – Shaded Spruce; berries – Cherry Cobbler; candle shading – Light Gray Granite. Add Wink of Stella to the flame & the dripping wax for a bit of sparkle. Die cut pieces with the Sentimental Wishes Dies.
• Add holly branches with glue dots and candles w/ holly on dimensionals to the card front circle.
• Add the bow made from Shaded Spruce Satin & Sheer Ribbon with a glue dot – and the front is complete – elegance personified!

For the inside…

On the Basic White panel 4 x 5 1/4, stamp the sentiment from Sentimental Wishes stamp set in Memento ink. Stamp the candle image from this set, also in Memento ink. Color as on card front. Adhere this to a Cherry Cobbler panel 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 and add to inside of card. Fait accomplis’ – and beautiful!

For the envelope I added a panel of Regals 6×6 DSP to the envelope flap and trimmed to fit. On the front, I stamped the candle image once more in Memento ink and colored as before. Love, love this card! Thank you Karen Ksenzakovich, for your creation and demonstration during our team meeting.
