Stampin' Up! For Unto Us and Brightly Gleaming Card for the Happy Inkin' Thursday Blog Hop

Hi Stampers, Happy Christmas Eve. May your holiday be filled with goodness and joy.

This will be my last holiday card of 2020. I hope you have enjoyed the different seasonal cards this year and were able to make a few of the designs I have shared.

Today for our hop we have a sketch challenge. The Brightly Gleaming DSP is so beautiful and I wanted to use all of designs from the paper pack. I did a technique where I used most of the paper designs in the pack by cutting them up and putting the strips diagonally on the front panel. The card was topped off by my favorite sentiment from the For Unto Us stamp set.

The sketch:

Stampin; Up! For Unto Us and Brightly Gleaming:

The recipe:

Card base: Very Vanilla 4-1/4 x 11, scored at 5-1/2

Mat: Night of Navy 4 x 5-1/4

Panel for placing the strips: Very Vanilla 3-7/8 x 5-1/8

Banner: Night of Navy 3/4 x 3-7/8

Sentiment: Very Vanilla die cut with the Stitched Shaped Circle Die

Sentiment Die: Cooper Foil Sheet die cut with the Layering Circle Scallop Die

The details:

The panel:

Cut 6 x any size strips of Brightly Gleaming DSP (mine were approx. 1/2 and up in size but any size strips work, no measuring needed on this one)
Apply liquid glue onto the back of your first strip and lay it anywhere diagonally across the Very Vanilla panel
Proceed to lay 3 more strips in the same directions leaving tiny spaces between strips
Apply the next strip in a different direction and proceed to cover the entire card, laying strips of paper down until the card is filled
Adhere your 3/4 inch strip of Night of Navy card stock across the completed panel about 2/3 the way down

The sentiment:

Stamp your sentiment from For Unto Us in Night of Navy Ink onto the Very Vanilla Stitched Circle
Mount your sentiment onto the Copper Foil Scallop Die cut with Dimensionals
Die cut two small Copper snowflakes and one medium Night of Navy snowflakes from the So Many Snowflakes dies
Attach the Night of Navy snowflake to the sentiment piece at 11 o’clock and attach a small copper snowflake on top with a glue dot
Attach the other small copper snowflake to the sentiment piece at 5 o’clock with glue dot

Putting the card together:
